Im seeing growing discontent on Facebook and X around Coach Moorhead

Colin White meets expectations so far

Ngongang!!!

I hate calling for anyone to lose their job because there’s a human element to it, but JoeMo just isn't it. Idk if firing him is the right move given our financial situation, but I understand everyone’s point that keeping him essentially means accepting the same losing, complacent, and broken culture. I genuinely thought things would change this year after how last season ended, but if they didn’t change this season, I don’t see why we’d expect anything different in his final year.

How's 'Mr. Basketball' Colin White doing?

Nice!!

I can tell this team has talent, but they are boring to watch

Need this win, let's go!!

Nice response!!

Ugh

Another winnable game, go and win it!!

Filthy tie but better than an L

I like a relegation system, jk kinda...

Awesome, down a man too!

Wow, such a winnable game.

You'd think we'd have a good kicker

Whats up with these two-three yard passes when down under 1 minute

This is such a winnable game. Smh

Wow, terrible officiating thus far

Excuse my ignorance btw, I am VERY new to soccer especially the college game.

That makes sense. I think strength of schedule is probably a big part of what I was missing. I guess I’m still wondering how they weigh different results against each other. For example, is a tie against a top-25 team viewed as better than a win against an unranked team? Or does a tie against an unranked team hurt worse than a loss to a ranked team? And do they look beyond the result itself—shots, possession, fouls, etc.—or is it mainly about the result and strength of schedule? That’s really what I was getting at with those four teams. I understand why a loss to a highly ranked Maryland team might not hurt Georgetown much, and I certainly don’t think UA should be ahead of them after losing the H2H. I’m just curious how that compares to Creighton and Xavier being unbeaten.

I’ve been curious about how teams are actually ranked in the USCP poll, so take these four teams for example: Georgetown — No. 3 — 9-1-1 Creighton — No. 6 — 10-0-3 Akron — No. 12 — 7-1-2 Xavier — No. 18 — 8-0-2 It’s a little weird to me that Georgetown is ranked higher than Creighton and Xavier despite having a loss, especially given that Creighton and Xavier are undefeated. How are ties evaluated in the rankings? I assume that in a draw, one team may have played better and been disappointed with the result, while the other team may have been pretty happy to come away with a tie. Do they take that into consideration at all? Basically, how much weight do they put on losses vs. ties? And what other factors are they looking at that could explain the order of these four teams?

Outstanding result!!
