MM is right. The comments on Travis are over the top. The Big East Is an emotional roller coaster. All you had to do is watch the Marquette v Providence game today. The years of worrying whether we would go undefeated in the Horizon league are over. Regardless of who the coach would be there will be ups and downs in this league. Live with it.

I watched a hall of fame coach make mistakes and a young coach made good calls after his team went down 21-3. The second half turned it around and are headed to the super bowl. As said a half time score can be an illusion because it is not how you start but how you finish. It also doesn’t matter how you finish as long as you are on the right side of the total points scored. Some just don’t have the patience to wait for the win.

The big east is not made up of a bunch of chump teams. Grant it they have not played their best but they have the talent to play with many top teams and when they start to put it together we will all be happy. Remember this team does quit and that is a good thing. Every great player hit slumps and we have seen Nate come out of his,we all hope, and when he is on his threes it set a success tone for the team
I asked a ref if he could give me a technical foul for thinking bad things about him. He said, of course not. I said, well, I think you stink. And he gave me a technical. You can't trust em.

will be accepting apologies from fans that have called Travis incapable of winning or motivating his players.

Maybe you are all on the Creighton basketball boards calling for their coaches firing after being outcoached by Travis.
your logic is unassailable.

I assume this is no longer applicable?
