I’m glad he won’t trash SIU on the way out.  Whether it’s bs or not it’s good to hear people publicly express love for the school.  

Don't hold your breath. Kill left here with near hero status and the first thing is he did was sue us.

Craving a McBride Special!

The last 90 seconds are the ones to watch.

😲 Wow!  That kind of spells it all out. 

Doesn't spell anything out. It marginally hints that he knows his back is against the wall. That "The last 90 seconds are the one to watch." is like click-bait. 

Said it before, say it again. Until any combination of - the athletics department, The Southern, WSIL, WPSD, KFVS says he's gone; he's still our coach. Do I think he's gone? I'd say its a better than 70/30 chance he is. I would leave. The cupboard is going to be awfully bare next year. This would be the year to walk. 

We've been through this shit before far too many times. Its like the scene towards the end of Aliens - Ripley is telling Bishop he has done well getting them back to the ship in orbit only until Mama Alien rams her tail through Bishop's chest from behind and she rips him in half and poor ole Bishop has this O of surprise on his face.  That's how I've felt in the past. 

 Rumors are rumors, and facts are facts.  Can him. Retire. Resign. Whichever. But if he does manage to come back for the final year of his contract.....

God. Help. Us. All.

I wish Barry the very best this weekend (unlke the majority). I feel like he genuinely cares about our guys, unlike Danny Boy up in BloNo, who just cares about Ws instead of molding his players into being successful off the court. Hope Barry is able to cut down the nets and then retires on top!! Let's go Dawgs!!!

Why would anybody root against him? 

He is gone either way. SIU wins and more money for the program. That is a win win

I have an ominous feeling about this game. Even though it's a down UNI team, old Ben is still a quality coach and it's extremely difficult to beat a team three times.

I feel pretty good about this game actually.  Don't get me wrong I do not expect us to run away with it but I feel like we should win.  AC game Green fits last game and if a freshman beats a bunch of upper class men in his first valley tournament game I will be rather disappointed... Who knows though.  I think we will win though... 68-62

I think we win, I hope we win, I would like to go to the Saturday game, If Barry let's the kids play this weekend SIU has a shot at this, kinda scary thought hearing BH say he is going to coach his butt off.

We may very well be in trouble then. 😝

Fwiw, I read the other day that the team that has won two games against a team wins 70% in the third one.

So far in this tournament the team who got swept in the regular season has won two out of the three games.

Anyone see a way to watch this in Chicago?  The former CSN is carrying other programming, meanwhile (even though I won't pay for it) on the ESPN app it shows the E+ stream is blacked out.

If you're gonna reply to me in the forums, please quote what I wrote that you're replying to so I have a clue...thanks! 😀
