The basketball IQ of our fanbase is special needs level

[maroonmania]

I'm not freaking out over this loss by any means but now the game Saturday against OM at home pretty much becomes a must win or folks are going to start losing any enthusiasm for this team. Will not be pretty if OM goes to 5-0 in conference and we move to 2-3 after what we endured during football season.

No pretty much about it. Lose Saturday and the fanbase will lose all enthusiasm. Can't ask them to get excited for a team that loses at home twice and gets boat raced from the jump on the road in between. If you want fan buy-in, you've got to earn it.

As soon as we lose they come out of the woodwork to b!tch and moan. I hope they’re trolls because if they’re not, they’re the worst fans ever.

That 321whatever guy is a troll. People need to quit responding to his bait.

Sometimes, blowouts happen in basketball, especially on the road. Tennessee lost by 30 to Florida. Kentucky lost by 20 to Ohio State. Purdue lost by 18 to Auburn and 18 to Marquette. We lose by 22 at the #1 team in the country and some of y’all are ready to give up on the season. It’s really pathetic.

No, it's "needs to be institutionalized" level.

I praise them when they play well. But tonight they played like cowards. Hubbard is lost. Will he get it back? We’ll see. But right now I wouldn’t like our chances against anyone. We shouldn’t do anything but practice shooting and defending 3’s the rest of this week. We will not win again if those two things don’t improve.

Gonna call them cowards to their face big man?

I have long believed that a lot of them are Ole Miss fans.

Our fans have been force fed garbage and disappointment for going on about 3 years in every sport that matters and some that don’t (baseball). So if they want to vent, let them. You aren’t the fan police. You’re not getting any cool six pack points. It’s tiring to constantly be embarrassed as a fan. I’d trade athletic programs and seasons with almost every SEC team. That’s how it is these days. So yeah, when our only decent team craps the bed in an opportunity to give us a little hope, people are going to vent.

Go home to whatever fanbase you belong to.
