You remind me a little bit of my sister who thinks if a player wants more game time he should sit closer to the coach on the bench. Do you think it's possible he isn't getting minutes because he hasn't impressed during practice? I'm not sure what bag yanking has to do with your point, but if I was on the team I would make an extra effort to protect my bag.

2 free throw attempts? Seriously? STOP. SHOOTING. THREES.

Skip they went to the damn Sweet Sixteen the year after that.

During my suspension, there were many times I wished I had been able to comment. First thing I have to say is that I was so wrong about being pessimistic before the Ohio game. Skip was right, relished the opportunity before the Zips and enjoyed the payoff while I was drinking Drano. (Luckily, I saved a little for Toledo and FAU) The other thing I need to eat some crow on is my prediction that Bowden would be fired did not pan out. I really thought he was Dead Man Walking but somehow they were able to pull out the Ohio game and save his job. There were about 758 times I wanted to make a smart ass comment as I sat in the house of detention and those just have to be recorded as missed opportunities squelched by my misbehavior. Anyone who I have truly offended, I’m sorry. Going forward, I am going to try to have a kinder, gentler machine gun hand.

After further thought and consultation, it would appear that Bowden is indeed on the final year of his contract in 2018. His original contract was for 5 yrs. After the Potato bowl win in 2015 he was given a 2 year extension which covered 17 & 18. Right?
