>Oh, and I forgot to answer Huckaby's question:

Last finish better than 3rd place is 96-97 year.

I also think we have been shortsighted in comparing the Broncos in the context of the WCC. In looking at Bay Area teams the ranking would be as follows:

1. Pacific
2. ST. Mary's/Stanford (tie)
3. USF/Santa Clara/Cal
4. San Jose State

this would be acceptable if we had had success the last five to seven years. We know Cal is just having a down year among many good years, USF has better things ahead, St. Mary's with no facilities has positive momentum. I fear if we continue on the same course the " city rivalry' game with SJS will perpetually be the barometer of worst team in the Bay Area.

Well 85, these are all great points obviously and it also should be very obvious that I concur 100%.

The question is, will our pleas fall once again on deaf ears, as they have for oh so long?

It kinda hurts when we have pollyanas like 66 here to combat. I mean this as no offense - I'm sure 66 is a great guy and dammit, there can't be much wrong with someone who loves Bronco hoops - but this is the type of thinking that keeps us in perpetual mediocrity.

TH and 85 are right on. Davey (and Seandel) have got to go. Coonan's a puppet, so don't hold your breath.

>Postscript to SCU debacle at USF.

Two best players are Perkins and Bailey so impossible to see how we should be better next year. THIS WAS THE YEAR!

Weakest 3rd place team in WCC in ages. There are miles and miles of distance between 3rd place and 2nd this year so third is no grand accomplishment.

Davey's record the past 4 years is now 56-61. If one feels SCU's potential/resources are middle of pack WCC then lets call it a job well done.

I hope Coonan is not the puppet Bronco67 thinks (knows?).

The question is, how long does the hall pass last from '95 -'96 with Nash?

How can one say that this is the biggest gap between 2nd and 3rd place team in ages when the 3rd place team swept the 2nd place team? In no way am I supporting Davey for a contract extentsion because I firmly believe he should be canned in favor of Bill Grier from Gonzaga. This year's league has a lot of parity in it. Teams are playing hard and the talent level has increased from year's past (thanks to Gonzaga). The real question is, is Connan satisfied with having a 3-5 place team every year or does he want to have a team that finishes in the top 2 every year? SCU has the facilities now its a matter if they can get the coaches and players.

>11-3 vs. 7-7 record shows a huge gap. Without the two unexplainable victories over the Gaels it looks much worse. A 7-7 record is not top of the league material, it is the definition of average. With two wins over the Gaels is really disgraceful to only be .500.

Overall I would be content with a program that has the occasional 4-5-6 finish but most years is in the top 3 (with 3rd place representing a better than .500 record.

If (a big if!) the Broncos and Gaels meet on Sunday night who are you putting your money on?

I think the gap be explained by Davey's inability to get the team up for games that we should win. Ie the Pep game here when after the game Perkins said, oh well just another game. This is not the attitude of winners, its the attitude of a team that could care less about what happens on the court.

By the way I would put everything on SMC to win if we play them because there is no way we can beat them 3 times they are just to good. However at SCU shoudl help.
