Team has no seniors. A team of new faces goes .500 and all come back, with a couple good recruits, I think he gets his last year.

Let's see how he conducts himself and if he can win back certain influential alumni I'm just saying that scenerio would get him another year. Sure IF he blows up and acts crazy, he could be done. .500 with no seniors, Moll and Wojick, I think he gets his '18-'19 season.

And the team goes 500, Moll and Wojcik are young and the future looks promising for next year, and the beat goes on. After 5 years he goes 500 and has a lopsided roster with a lot of young players and that is worth another year? Time to cut our losses after next year unless we go to an N tournament. If that means we have to regroup, then let's regroup[ and try again. No point in beating a dead horse.

I don't really like JP, but I will be disappointed if he is fired following a .500 season & a top 5 MAAC finish after losing 4 starters. That would likely set us back for 2018-19, which would look like a season to try to go to the NCAA Tournament with everyone returning and hopefully improving. If we are bad next year: fire him. But it would be foolish and shortsighted to fire him if he can get us to .500 this season. With the amount of production departing, getting to .500 would mean these freshmen and sophomores are promising players. So you keep him around for what, so he can go 500 the following 2 years? What don't some of you guys get, he's been in the MAAC for almost 14 years, he is what he is a mediocre 500 coach. IMO he's worse than Mitch because he's killing the program all the same but just a slower much more painful pace. I really think if he's 500 he needs to go, if players want to leave so what, Patsos has lost almost 50% of his roster since he's been hired, so I don't see an issue... I agree if we do say go around .500 this year and you bring him back even if everyone returns and the frosh look good - the following year say he wins 19-20, finishes 3rd and goes to the CBI. When does it end? That's what scares me about this kind of coaches. Mitch was awful. So-so Jimbo can last a decade. I want 20 wins and top 3 this year and NCAA/NIT in 18-19 or I'm making a change. 5 years is long enough.

Depends on how the season goes 500 or worse your going to have too make a decision quick on the coach for recruitment and retaining players long drawn out process sets you back quick resolution either way gives you a chance.I think improvement in the year nice run in conference tournament go from there record shouldn't hold much value.Look how many close games we lost this year to good teams record would have been better but still had a chance for tourney.Monmouth better record but lost to us.I think with a team more like the style they want different style of coaching hopefully

The patron saint of .500 coaches in the MAAC was Dave Majority of Marist. But he never was controversial and seemed to be well respected by other coaches and the Foxes' faithful/

[quote author=" skipc[/quote]And you also get to watch a game in the 40’s with 50 free throw attempts.[/quote] And the name of the game is JUST WIN BABY! Does it matter if the Yankees win by 1 run or 10?

Lamb makes the news by accompanying girl, in wheelchair with Rett Syndrome, to her Senior Ball at his old HS.
Great player and class act.

Yes he seemed to be a great kid when we met him in Buffalo. Nice story. We missed out on a good one.
