Not mine. I've never thought he was as incompetent as many on here say, and we are beating teams we should beat, but frankly, even at that, these results are surprising me; especially given how inept we looked early.
I think FrankTGucker is right, we're going to be stuck with CTC after this season and possibly for a few more. Unless, he is tired of the gig and I don't see that happening.
He has a fringe top 25 team with top 5 talent. Why am I supposed to be impressed?
It baffles me that Calbert could ever be in an inferior basketball position to somebody like Crean. I can't work for somebody I don't respect, and there's no way I would have been able to respect Crean if I was Calbert.
I saw that clip, and it looked like Peegs was rebounding for Crean. I can't imagine being Mike and kissing Crean's butt: I have no idea why he does. If I was Mike, I would have gone the route of the UM blog that helped get rid of Hoke a long time ago.
What? Are you kidding me? Calbert didn't want to put in the effort or couldn't deal with Crean's intensity?!? I've grown to now conclude that working hard, but stupid (e.g., Crean) is way worse than being lazy. Working hard but stupid leads to crazy wasted resources (which we know is the case based on the spending that we do on our basketball program versus the return). Working hard is not necessarily something we should celebrate. Crean works like an idiot wasting a ton of time and money. He lacks focus, and does not know how to manage.
This...both of them.
In his career Calbert has been associated with, as a player or in his coaching career, the following: Bobby Knight, Rick Pitino, Jerry Sloan, Don Nelson, Mike Montgomery, and Jerry West. I'm sure there are others--all way more intense and knowledgeable about basketball than old two tone tan tommy--that I am forgetting.
The notion that some f***stick like Crean is too intense for Calbert is so f***ing laughable that it could only originate on these boards. Jesus....
