    One reason to make a move ths year rather than waiting.

    Why not? How will stop giving money make our program better. We'll end up hiring a bottom dwelling Mid-Major coach in the end. People are beginning to sound like Hawk Fans. What do you think happened in Iowa City. People are telling the athletic department they refuse to support Iowa Basketball...

    And to add: I think one more year. Helps with our image. And maybe more marquee coaches are available that can turn it around more quickly, if Mac doesn't drastically improve next year. I also think, the MBB attendance isn't going to be that drastically affected like people think it is. Yes we...

    Read below. I'm afraid of change because I feel it could do more harm than good. Yes, we could, on the off-chance find the coach that could do it quickly. But most likely with a new coach we have to put up with 4 years of rebuilding and firing our coach now will handcuff us with...

    One reason to make a move ths year rather than waiting.

    I'm sorry, supporting the team by not financially supporting the team is a childish way to make a statement to the athletic department. No one can change my mind on that. Choosing not to attend, for various other reasons and allocating money to other sports is certainly understandable. But the...

    Worst mentality on the site.

    We settled for Wayne Morgan. He wasn't a flashy hire. To turn us around quickly, I think we need the flashy hire. I just don't want to hire someone that is going to set us on a four-year rebuilding mode again. That is why I think I'm in the retain Mac camp. We show the country we love MBB and...

    Isn't that what we did with Mac...Iowa with Alfraud and Lick? Same old story and years to rebuild. And Dixon was an assistant coach in the program that was promoted, similar to the Wayne Morgan hiring. He wasn't a diamond in a rough. But yes, I get what you are saying. I just think for every...

    I love Hoiberg like no one else. But I don't just ever get why people think he would be helpful as a coach. He has no experience there. But I do kind of like the idea of helping out with a coaching search, he does know a lot of coaches in the NCAA because of his ties with the NBA. I think he...

    Sigh!!! Why can't people ever read what is written. Way to quote me out of context to prove your point. What happened after LE, was that no one wanted to coach at ISU. NO ONE!!! That is why we hired Morgan. We fire Mac, we could be in the same boat. The coaching fraternity thinking we bailed...

    Your favorite underappreciated movie

    Just thought of one that pretty much everyone has seen and is ranked on IMDB either 1 or 2 as the best film of all time. The Shawshank Redemption. It bombed in the theaters, was a complete flop. Then when it hit video it was the #1 renter for a year straight. Was underappreciated but ended...

    I think the haters mistake people as Kool-Aid Brewers. Do I think Mac can get it done? He hasn't shown me anything that would make me say that. But why can't people understand that firing him may actually be worse for the program. While it is a small chance, there is a chance, that we actually...

    I agree. But the grain goes both ways, some people choose to look at Marquee programs and how they have struggled before when looking at our program. Some others will take a look at programs that have been perennially in the dog house that have reached recent success. All I'm saying is that both...

    Nope. Someone did compare us to Kentucky, I think it was earlier in this thread. He was in the "Fire Mac" camp that did the comparing. I've heard people bring up K-State for months, so why aren't we allowed to compare our program with other programs? It's not like he was saying we are UNC. UNC...

    Your favorite underappreciated movie

    not as good IMO. I just really got into Damon being Ripley and even though Malkovich did a good job, it just wasn't the same for me. I think I only watched them like a week apart or something though. I'll have to catch the Damon flick again. It's been long enough that I've forgotten most of the...

    The talented Mr. Ripley with Matt Damon. Gwyneth Paltrow and Jude Law. Was pretty good. They made a Sequel with John Malkovich playing Tom Ripley.

    I know this warning is a little late. But lets leave attacks on individual posters out of this. And for the Record. I think Bawbie was a "Mac Hater" in the Fall. Funny to see that he know seems to be the poster child for a "Mac Lover". I think people are grouping people to easily together...

    Why are you still posting in MBB forums? I thought you turned in your fan card last night?

    Your favorite underappreciated movie

    Love that movie. Think it's hilarious. Especially if you grew up in the 80's. There are a ton of underappreciated movies. I've seen so many that never see the light of day. Like Rabbit Proof Fence. Awesome Drama with Kenneth Branagh. Or the movie Eight Below (if you are a dog lover). White...

    I concur with ISU4ME's statement. I think supporting the team in down times is much more of a statement than not supporting the team. It shows the country we are a die hard MBB fan base no matter what. We do it in Football, why not Bball? I completely understand if people don't want to spend the...

    If money was not an issue....

    I don't see that fans coming in droves with another season of hope. There isn't a splashy hire for us to make. I think keeping Mac give us a better chance to compete next season than a new coach would. Those teams that turn it around in one year or two are very few and people think it's just...
