And don't forget not even APPEARING in the MVC final, let alone winning it, in 16 years! That's just inexcusable.Those of us who don’t excuse 15 years outside both the NCAA and NIT will just get attacked.

Saluki Insider? I barely know her!
@goroshnik Mullins coached this team for 16 years?

Mullins talks about "building a culture" during the postgame... if the culture's an inability to make the MVC final OR not making the NCAA tourney OR not making the NIT... mission accomplished.
22 D-1 wins is pretty empty when they don't lead to anything of note in March.
“I thought we could win a championship this year with this team.” - Bryan Mullins to Reis.
That really just happened.
Supporter of the Fab 4: Scottie Ebube, Foster Wonders, AJ Ferguson & Cade Hornecker.
They’re the ones that can get us where we haven’t been in 15 years.

Thanks, boys! It may not have been pretty - but it was entertaining! If Lance and Marcus don't return, good luck to the both of them.

He won't get to 15 years if the postseason drought goes another 2-3 seasons. Had he at the VERY least gotten to the MVC final, maybe you could say this team accomplished something... but if winning an MVC quarterfinal game's your idea of success, we've got different ideas of what we want success to be.@goroshnik Mullins coached this team for 15 years?

I seriously don’t know what to do. When any sort of constructive criticism gets rejected, what’s even the point of staying on a forum like this? Maybe that’s why I’m not here as much. I feel your pain.
Why do we not get a cutter and screener once in awhile to set up an open three?
Why does our 7 footer get no time at all?
Why do you not put Wonders in for a chunk of minutes and tell him to shoot the rock if he’s open? Run a screen or two for him?
Why does AJ Ferguson, a top athlete on the roster, get zero minutes?
Why is Trent Brown out there trying to play with the likes of Penn and Wilkins and DeVries on the perimeter? Because he could hang with Evansville??
Why can’t we hire an assistant coach that has an ounce of an offensive background? For gods sake Mullins, just tune into Rodney Watson at half; he always drops a nugget or two.
MERCY!
Good questions. We really need to have an experienced assistant who can coach offense. Mullins can't and he made screwy lineup choices all season. Did he ever let Rupert play more than 4 minutes at once? Rupert is our best offensive option going forward, along with Hornecker, but Mullins misused our bigs almost every game. Maybe Scooter will lose 20lbs. and get serious about basketball!
Would love to see XJ, LJ, and MD come back. No doubt we're going to lose some players.
We had our best season in a while. Winning 23 games is nice, but we need to get better.
Go Dawgs!

Maybe some of us just want better? How is constructive criticism bad?
The goal of everyone should be to get back to the Promised Land. Is that your goal?
