Good, no one will get to see us lose then. I could be wrong. I often am. But I think we will be significantly better this season. And by that I mean upwards of 10-12 wins better. Even with basically a whole new team I don't think OSU will go 3-28 again.

I was thinking about the same, but not so sure now with the two injuries. The backcourt is really thin now. I do think there will be much better effort, which will make them more fun to watch. Being out East here, it is a commitment to stay up for a lot of the games. Years past iI did it regularly. Last year — not so much. They became unwatchable, and not just because they weren’t winning

It's going to be a long season. Some will be satisfied even elated with 10 victories in tinkles 9th season. Sad. Very sad.

I’ve had my foot firmly planted in the “time for WT to go” camp for some time, but he’s still here and that won’t stop me from supporting the team from afar. I hope a pretty much totally revamped roster, two new assistants and what I would hope is a newly focused WT after last year’s debacle will help make this a more enjoyable team to watch and lay the foundation for better things to come. If it doesn’t, I’ll be happy to see WT go. But dwelling on it at this point when a new season is less than a month away does no good.

One bad apple spoils the bunch. Tinkle has two just awful seasons, an average season, and five above-average seasons. Focus on the negative, if you would like. I will continue to focus on the positive.

I won't be thrilled with 10 wins,but if it leads to success in the future,I can live with it. Get the young kids some experience if it leads to future success. We have several young players who I really like who can be strong pieces going forward if they stay around. After a disastrous season last year,10 wins is progress and hopefully heading in the right direction.

I think at 10 wins or fewer there's a legitimate discussion within the athletic department, and maybe donors, if there's a buyout unless the vast majority of the games were very competitive. If it's 10 wins, 10 3-4 point losses and no blowouts the discussion might not happen outside of the various message boards. Tinkle has shown a couple of times he's capable of putting together a winning season when fans are expecting very little.

Agree...I think if we look like the youngsters aren't going to have a ceiling very high,and we win under 10 games,I think it's time to have a hard conversation. The issue for me is,do we want to spend a ton of money to buy Wayne out,and then spend more money to replace him and his staff. If we go on the cheap again,like we have since Ralph left,we will have this conversation till the end of time. You get what you pay for...it applies here. We would have to pay legit money up front to get a quality candidate.
