Hmm. Probably need to work that out. I think it's excellent sentiment and a message.
I just figured it out. MM was honest and there wasn't any "coach speak". I'm not used to that, and perhaps ... "I can't handle the truth". :oops:

Let me help you out then....

We are going to break out the lunch pails
We need to play harder
We need to burn the midnight oil
We need to look at ourselves in the mirror....


There, is that better? :wink:

People should mentally prepare themselves for the possibility of significant changes in the roster, and the staff.

In recent weeks Peter Gash has started following Twitter accounts connected to women's college basketball and women's recruiting... and I'm not talking about 2-3 accounts, I'm talking 30+.

Why is Peter Gash following Twitter accounts related to women’s recruiting? As for the roster, I see six new players next year and another restart. Yay. Can’t wait.

Ummm because maybe he is lining up to take a women's coaching job? Would seem like the logical thing....

LOL. IV is correct, I suspect Gash might try to become a women's bball coach in some capacity.
