Mitch is gone so no need to drag his name through the mud. Remember w/ Fran he worked extremely hard, was an excellent assistant and part of one of the greatest runs in Siena basketball history. So at least show the man some respect. I find this topic in bad taste. I actually blame the powers that be at Siena. There was no acceptable reason to hire him. Period. I would agree w/ that statement.

Mitch was a great assistant for us- tried his best as head coach but it didn't work out- Let's move on now.. No need to kick a guy when he is down

I wouldn't call sitting on your ass collecting a quarter of a million dollars to do nothing being "down". As long as he's still on the Siena payroll, he's free game. The only thing about him that's down is how he left the program.

How long of a presentation does he get, and how many variations of passing the ball inside to your center are there?

Four...once by each other team member from a strategically marked X on the court!

I'd make him wear the St. Bernard costume at every home game.

The only thing about him that's down is how he left the program. I totally agree with sienafan. I, like so many fans, totally supported Mitch the first two years. Reality was that he was full of s---. He lied about everything he said he was going to do in running the team. I could forgive the man if he was just a poor HC. He was a liar. Most of us won't forget that nor should he be given a free pass on it in any way. He destroyed a program that a lot of good coaches and great players dedicated years to build. I would also mention the dedication of the long time Siena fan, the many years of loyalty and the time we have put in to support our team. Remember those years parking in the front of campus and walking across that field in the winter to get to the ARC. I shiver just thinking about it.

He was actually banking over 300k. 3 years worked out to be just about 1 mil Let's see that on an episode of "you paid for it"

Or one of the puppies that followed mitch around? Funny but no. I didn't care for the hire. I understood it in part but thought it was the lazy way out. I didn't renew season tix for the past 2 years ... that is until this year. As far as Mitch goes i recognize his contribution to the program as an assistant under Fran and his failure as head coach. Sorry but the crap posted in this thread is trash and childish. Mitch is gone pull for Patsos and move on. This kind of bs just makes Siena fans look foolish. Sorry just my take.

Don't call us childish or foolish when your response to a losing team was to desert it. Another fair weather fan, the team doesn't win so you desert the program and the kids. That's your answer to support the Siena program. But you're going to chastise us. That's big of you to recognize what Mitch did that was positive. Now things are starting to look up and you're going to support the team again. Thanks a lot. I supported PW for three years, was always there no matter what.(for the kids and the program) We don't need you individuals that come back when it's convenient or more attractive to lecture to Anyone[. I've learned in the last few years as I've battled people on this site, even defended MB, that their angry and venom was only due to their dedication to the program and their love for our boys. So I'm sorry, but I don't have much respect for your "positive" attitude when you took the easy way out and now you're going to moralize to us. It might be your take but you have earned that right in my eyes. Sorry just my take.
