or win any of other road games with Brock Miller starting. We were fortunate to be tied when we finally pulled him like we should have earlier. We can't depend on making the runs we did last night at their place with him screwing us up. Forget pulling him with 10 minutes left in the game there, pull...

It's sad that we're aspiring to finish in the middle. We should always aspire to finish at the top but the past few years we've finished at the bottom so a finish this season in the middle would be a movement in the right direction. It would be awesome if we could immediately go from the bottom to ...

TheAggie

We can make excuses of people being hurt or who we played all we want, but the problem is the system. Duryea's system is not going to work at Utah State cause we are not going to get the athletes that can make it work. If you even call it a system at all.

It's sad that we're aspiring to finish in the middle.

TheAggie

Georgia almost fired him after last season, and might fire him after this one. We should go after him if they do.

TheAggie

Duryea should have never been hired.

TheAggie

will be a BS letter supporting Duryea, like the one supporting Wells for football.

TheAggie

If Duryea was that great, we would have beaten Air Force and UNLV at their place.

TheAggie

Well, the fact is that Wells is hard for the assistants to work with.

TheAggie

You have to love that Randy doesn't use budget and private jet excuse like some of you use for Duryea. He is even hampered by not being able to pay the athletes the cost of attendance, yet he doesn't let that be an excuse.

TheAggie

When we hired the HR firm that was supposed to be used to find a new coach, Barnes didn't use it for that like he should have, all he used it for was to find him the sweet job at Pitt. And there is NO reason to think that Hartwell and the rest of the AD wouldn't do the same. So when we have openings...

Well, you better hope we don't have Koby or Merrill leave after this year. Cause then fans will be using the same old youth excuse NEXT year.

I'm glad you're impressed with the effort and toughness the kids have shown this year, cause the rest of us aren't.

TheAggie

Well, it is fact that David came here cause of Stew, and it is fact he didn't want Duryea hired, and it is fact that he left cause he didn't like him. And it is also fact that the rest of you kept using that as an excuse for his performance last year.

TheAggie

i don't want to hear the same old BS we heard earlier this year about Duryea being great and things changing. The fact is, even though we will win, it won't be cause of Duryea being so great, it will be cause of CSU having a short bench. And it won't mean we are going to finish in the top 3. And wou...

TheAggie

It's pathetic that some of you are giving Duryea the excuse of not having a private jet like SDSU. But the fact is, a private jet wouldn't help him manage games any better or cause the teams to show any more toughness. And even besides SDSU, that still shouldn't be an excuse for losing to Indiana St...

TheAggie

It seems like under Duryea, every time we have been tied with two minutes left and call timeout, we have always managed the game poorly at the end and lost. We beat teams we have more talent than, but have we even won a game where we were tied towards the end? The games include Boise this year and ...

Change rim heights to prevent teams from setting 3 point FG records. That must have been what NEV did against WYO. Or work on the three point defense instead of continuing to call it a fluke that teams have their best shooting nights against us. Maybe the fact that we leave guys open has something ...

TheAggie

Some of you insist on defending Duryea with the excuse of being young, but the fact is, HE is responsible for us being young. Maybe if he was decent, we wouldn't have Collette, Lew Evans and Elston Jones leave cause of not wanting to play for him. If we have more underclassmen leave after this year ...

TheAggie

And of course we have the same kiss butt fans defending Duryea that defended Kohn Smith, as well as Arslanian, Dennehy and Guy.

TheAggie

The fact that the team lacks the toughness needed to win road games without playing perfectly is a reflection of Duryea. Which shows why he should not have been hired.

TheAggie

The day we hired Duryea like we should NOT have.

TheAggie

The fact that we are soft is a reflection of the head coach. We will be soft until Duryea is gone.

TheAggie

Duryea's weaknesses as a coach and the lack of toughness got exposed when we weren't playing weak competition anymore.

TheAggie

All the Indiana State people who guarded him OWNED HIM.

TheAggie

The fans who drive long distances to and from the games, put forth more effort by pushing the gas pedal the whole time, than the kids did in the second half.

TheAggie

It is no excuse that we weren't prepared for the zone. That is all Duryea's fault. When the kids have been playing for 15 years, they should be prepared to face a zone.

TheAggie

are the same kiss butt fans that defended Dave Arslanian, Mick Dennehy, and Brent Guy because their friendship with the coaches is more important than the program's best interests.

TheAggie

Why did we catch the punt on the 5 yard line, instead of letting it roll into the endzone for the touchback?

TheAggie

On third downs, why do we ALWAYS throw the ball short of the first down marker. There were 10 throws on third down, and only ONE was part the mark. Why is that?

TheAggie

Last year, you guys all used the kid leaving as an excuse for Duryea's poor job last year, when the real problem was coaching. No excuses this year. Especially when you consider Duryea was responsible for the kid leaving. We hopefully won't have any last minute defections this year. BUT if we do, th...

TheAggie

It's year one for him. Year two will tell much more of the story. Year three is absolutely on him. Unless Blue has his way. The guy smeared Morrill and is now doing the same to Tim (I truly believe he is embarrassed about his claims that TD would never get an interview then when that happened he sa...

TheAggie

The worst part of the defection two days before the season is that it hid the REAL problem, that Duryea is a poor coach who should not have been hired. And instead gave all you guys an excuse to use to defend him. The fact is, even without the kid, we still had talent. We wouldn't be able to play li...
