Is there any real chance the butler embarrassment can push them to fire him
I’ve seen enough, Trav needs to go. Just another f’n embarrassing end to a season.
Time to revert to the original thread name.
I’ve seen enough, Trav needs to go now. Another f’n embarrassing end to the season.
There is no way to defend Travis after tonight. As I’ve said before I like the guy, he probably deserved being hired but it just isn’t working. It won’t happen but he has to go.
I’ve NEVER called for a coach to be fired. Been there, done had it happen, and it’s not fun....for anyone. I’m not going to call for his firing now. But I sincerely hope that Xavier has a new head coach before the end of April. Steele has a winning record, he has recruited some very good players, the players are all playing hard, and they all seem like good kids.
But....can anyone honestly say that the program is better off now than it was 4 years ago? Can anyone honestly say that they truly believe that it will be better off NEXT year with Steele as the HC? I can’t.
Yeah, this sucks but it’s become clear. Travis is not the coach we hoped he was and it’s best for all parties to go in separate directions. There is no identity to his teams. He can recruit but he is lacking in player development and in game coaching.
I’ll try to start a new thread but they censor me. This board is ran by LIBS.
With the right hire, Xavier can get back on track very quickly. The team is young and talented. They just need a coach who will not hold them back, but actually get the most out of them and improve throughout the year.
I think now would be a perfect time to bring in a new coach.
