Until he elaborates it's best to ignore. We know what we got with JP. Bingo - we have a winner!

Maybe ss is a former Patsos player or assistant who has an insider's perspective . . . and a long memory One funny thing about hiring Jimmy Patsos is how often he's been against us. Nine years at a conference rival. His team gave Fran his last loss at the TUC. And his 2002 Maryland team beat us in the NCAA Tournament. Anyways, I'm glad he's on our side. If nothing else, it keeps things entertaining! We've gone from losing badly last season to losing nail-biters this season. Next step will be to actually win again.

If nothing else, it keeps things entertaining! We've gone from losing badly last season to losing nail-biters this season. Next step will be to actually win again. You've said it. We're playing better & could have easily won 4 more games (Iona & Quinny at home St Peter's road and Purdue possibly twice). Of course we could have easily lost to St Bonnie & Cornell also. Would have could have, our record is what it is and it's not that bad. Never challenge worse because things can always get worse . I'm happy with team/coaches so far. I refuse to let a couple bad games for what ever reason(s) get me down or start questioning recruiting, coaches decessions, player effort, etc.. Would I have liked more wins up to this point: "Yes" but not to the point where I'm upset or antsy. All I can do is continue to cheer the team on at home & away games. I hope all other Saints fans continue to cheer them on (even if you don 't like the coach, his decision making or specific players or their ability or lack there of). Your team still needs you!

IS - you are right but this is a FAN board so discussing, questioning, being wildly inflated & deflated is what we do as fans. I am enjoying the ride so far; am not questioning the recruits and; do at this point question the 10ish truly STUPID fouls a game this late in the season.
But you, I and everyone else on this board, other than the trolls, love our Saints!
