And they didnt play anybody before us. This one exposed us. We need a point guard.

    Man I hope so. Claxton and Hammonds are really good. We need some athletic guards who can shoot.

    It was a big disappointment. The school and fans are ready for a great team. We are sitting on a program that could take off in the next couple of years.

    Painfully listened to it on the radio. It sounded worse than the score.

    glorified pickup ball....so far...its like we traded a coach who only cared about d...to a coach who only cares about ? needs an identity...

    Chemistry is more impartabt to a good team in basketball than any other sport (besides maybe QB-WR combos) We’re 5 games in guys. Lebron started 1-4 this year

    Chemistry is what makes an average team good and a good team great. I think we have an average team right now. Let coach crean get his system in and then make judgements. For gods sake he didn’t recruit a single player on this team if I’m not mistaken

    We can't blame recruiting when we lose to a team of 1 and 2 star players.

    Crean's 1st season at Indiana was rancid. His 2nd year was very bad, his 3rd was bad and his 4th was good.
    I wouldn't expect much soon.

    don't think he gets 4 yrs if his idea of a game/season plan is .....taking care of the ball be damd...lets have energy and do whatever you want....its like we went the xtreme opposite of fox....but we are paying double what we paid fox...."we play free and put up shots... and ohh yea we r going to play cool tourneys in cool places" sounds good to kids...but not when you get drug 2 out of 3...esp to gsu...regression with this talent should not be tolerated for what this guy makes....time will tell

    Y’all act like he was suppose to fix everything in one year. That’s not how basketball works. It takes time to turn things around the right way. GSU is a basketball school. They will be in the tourney come March. Give the man some time. They are going to win some and lose some games. There a lot of learning going on both sides players and coaches. It will take time. Tournament give you national exposure which helps with recruiting. Give the man a break.

    Crean will do a great job here, but there will be Ups and Downs the first year or 2...watching Fox coached teams was worse than having dental work done...We will score more points and give up more points, but it will be WAY more entertaining.

    It was 4 years before Crean had his first winning season at Indiana, the first 2 seasons were truly awful, and they are a basketball school with a rich history in the sport.

    It’s a gold mine for sure. So much talent in Georgia for both football and basketball that UGA should be good in both. It will happen
