Maybe we're not as talented as we thought we were.

We're not. Fortunately, neither are seven other teams in our conference.

It's his 4th season. Some will make the point that he took over a solid program built up by Heath Schoyer, which is true to some point but, he's a really good coach, he built Seattle Pacific into a West D2 power in his 12-14 years? there. I felt Oregon State should have hired him, matter of fact I was hoping they were going to.

Schroyer left the cupboard a bit dry for Bone. There were a lot of seniors on that team that won the BSC regular season title in 2004-05 and regardless of who was the coach, we were going to be sub .500 in 2005-06. Nothing against Schroyer, but he picked the best time to leave, as his stock was going to go down the next year...

They had a couple of transfers though that sat out that year, that didn't leave the self that dry. I thought they only lost 4 seniors off that team? I'm friends with Steve Gosar so I'll give him a call to get my facts straight.

We lost three 1st team all conference starters that included the BSC Player of the Year (Boxley) and the leader of assists in the nation (Funn). Okay, so it wasn't dry, but there was a big drop off in talent.

I agree they lost some key guys but, they were about 8-9 deep that year with those transfers sitting out. It dropped off a little my opinion but, I wouldn't say a lot.

Well, maybe all you fairweather armchair bball coaches can lure Mark Few over to Missoula to help things out. The fans in Spokane are calling for his head too, so he might be available after he gets fired by the internet.

If you stop and take a look around (speaking of both Missoula and Spokane), neither area could ask for a better ambassador for the school, program, and community. Wins will come in time, as will some losses along the way, but all in all the best man is in place and should remain so.

Wrong, they are not calling for Few's head in Spokane becuase, the fans there know that GU, year in and year out plays a top 10 non-conference schedule with atleast 7-10 ranked opponents. Mark Few is far from being disliked by a mass majority of fans in Spokane. As for Tinkle I hope he starts winning more than losing real soon becuase, if he has another 3 seasons like his first 2 1/2 seasons you will see a lot more of those fairweather armchair whatevers surfacing like locust.
