    How Much Longer on the Brian Neal Experiment?

    Gotta wonder how much more time he has left.

    I left at halftime on Friday when they were down 36 at half. I have never seen the Lady Muskies look worse.

    It was definitely a tough weekend at home, no doubt.

    Depending on how well his current recruiting class is (with a few McDonalds All-American nominees), he might get a little more time. But right now, apathy is kicking in for the program and that is not good.

    We went as a family to the Nova game on Friday night. We looked absolutely pathetic. No outside shooting. Missing countless layups. No energy from the team. I think the Brian Neal experiment needs to be defunded immediately.

    At the Steak Fry he was not asked one question. I can’t ever recall that before.

    Been a men's season ticket holder since 2000. Took my nieces to women's games back in the Amber Harris days. Did not know who Brian Neal was until I started reading this thread.

    No doubt he inherited a mess when he took over, but five years is enough time to get a program back together, and that hasn't happened. Years two and three showed glimpses, but the past season and a half have been abysmal. Most of the wins over the past couple of years are the result of an embarrassingly weak nonconference schedule.

    I was there too and it was very awkward. I felt bad for the guy.

    I left at halftime and I have NEVER done that. It was unwatchable.

    My expectations were really low coming into this season. You're just not going to win very many games with a team of mostly freshmen and sophomores, and the upperclassmen we do have played only sparingly last season.

    Having said that, losing by 39 at home is unacceptable, no matter the circumstances.

    Now, I do like the incoming class coming in next year. I know the staff is focusing on recruiting size, and 4 of the 5 commits are McDonald's nominees.
