Backcourt: Joseph/Cobbs/Hollins/Hollins/Welch
Frontcourt: mbakwe/White/Williams/Sampson/Iverson/Elliason/Walker

That's just absurd. But no sense looking back. What's done is done, and Tubby needs to figure out a way to turn this group into a winner.

Apparently, he thinks the way to win is to call Sampson out in the press.

Not that he's wrong, but really, Tubby? After 3.5 years of watching the guy not be aggressive, NOW you're going to tell the media he needs to get to the rim? What a joke.

They'll still win most of the rest of their non-conference games (the next two are the toughest, so keep some perspective) and mostly beat (maybe a road loss or something) Penn State, Iowa, Nebraska, and Indiana. Who knows.

It's not working out for us.

If you can tune him out, you are not human.

Span
Carroll
Mauer
Morneau
Willingham
Valencia
Casilla/Nishi
Revere

Pavano
Liriano
Blackburn
Marquis
Baker

That's an awesome lineup and rotation. Good job Terry Ryan! Can't wait for next season.

On a related note, thank god that Maturi failed in hiring a "Tubby-level" coach for the football team...

It helped that Watford had a horrible game.

Any team that plays the Gophs man is nuts. They're such a bad zone offense team.
