Meanwhile, Elias Harden, who finally left because he wasn't getting enough of playing time, is basically shooting the same percentage from three-34%-as our second best 3 point shooter (KyKy) behind Paul Scruggs 37.5% (not counting Freemantle). Bishop, who was allegedly a fantastic 3 point shooter, rotted on the bench. Bishop never got much of a chance to get his freshman legs under him before he was relegated to oblivion.

First you say that Collier at Butler knew ahead of time that Miller was going to suck, forced Miller to hire Holtman as a result, and then fired Miller a few weeks before the season because Miller sucked, and then Collier made up the entire thing about Miller's health issues.
Now you're saying that Travis really didn't need to go to a huge high school tournament just up the road, where several guys we are recruiting are playing in, but only went to avoid his Monday one hour radio show?
C'mon MOR, this is crazy talk.
I will add one more thing- maybe now is a good time to show some support for our coach, rather than continually bashing him because we we're on a three game losing streak. Maybe we should all go back to MM and read all the posts written about Thad Matta before the Run. To many, Matta was an incompetent fool who couldn't coach and previously won only because he was fortunate to have David West. Then when Matta left, these same people were like, "I can't believe he left."Last edited by XU 87; 01-21-2020 at 04:33 PM.

Oh, yeah. You keep buying in to a two hour video bite of game trash, like vs Marquette, Creighton and Seton Hall. THAT is what I'm dissecting, with the press conferences just the ancillary continuation (when he has the balls to show up) of that trash. I'm looking for a coach with some juice to tell me what the hell he's going to do to fix obvious deficiencies that have been repeated and occurring all year.
This team is underperforming badly and looks anemic vs well coached teams. THAT is the issue. You can focus on that.
By the way, just don't forget about the talent he brings in, then blows out."I Got CHAMPIONS in that Lockerroom!" -Stanley Burrell

Which is precisely the problem the way this season is playing out. Xavier hasn't beaten anyone yet that is an NCAA Tournament team (St. John's and TCU are the closest they've come). Losing to a non-tournament team like Wake Forest started the slide and has never been rectified.
You honestly expect fans like MOR to be saying "This is fine" after the team literally quit at a crossroads like the Marquette game? If Xavier wets the bed against Georgetown, I would honestly like to hear the next game we can expect to hear "That's a win" looking at the schedule. It won't exist.

I'm not saying that at all. I'm not going to push back on criticism of the team. They have sucked.
MOR has littered this thread with ridiculous Butler conspiracy theories and complaints about Steele "dodging" the media (and when Steele does comment, he's got a nitpick ready). I find it pretty annoying and misguided, and I've made that clear. Nothing more to it and I don't expect him to stop.

Are you now arguing that Bishop and his 17% shooting percentage (and 30% from the line) should have received more PT, particularly when Kyky came back?
Elias Harden is averaging 7 points a game for Jacksonville State and is shooting 40% from the field. Are you saying that Travis screwed up by not playing him more at X?
When you coached, was your team motto, "You will get a lot of playing time, regardless of how you produce when you play?"
