Also don’t overlook we were out of timeouts so plays we could have run were limited.

I am in no way, shape or form a McMahon apologist. He should've been fired after EITHER of the last 2 seasons.

But you can watch any college game around the country with that SAME EXACT situation, and be hard pressed to find a team get a better shot than we got at the buzzer today.

I'll give credit where it's due.

Does the player taking the shot not factor into this line of thinking n whatsoever?

You make a good point, that wasn't the ideal shooter. Mackinnon would've been.

But don't you think the faggies knew this?

I think it was a great design, especially with no timeouts going full court in 4.3 seconds. It's obvious to me that this play has been practiced by the team for this exact situation.

And I've wanted this SOB gone for 2+ seasons, so I'm not AT ALL a McMahon supporter.

It doesn't matter if they know it's going to McKinnon, you have to draw it up and the players have to execute it. Do you rather McKinnon taking that shot or Mosley ( who has only taken 6 3's all year )? That's like saying you'd rather Danny Ainge to take the last shot over Bird because they know it's going to Bird. That's bullshite.

Just tell us that you never played basketball, or understand it. That's actually the perfect way for him to get open for the 3.

Maybe you don't know this, but Mosely is a great outside shooter. But I get it, the Rant knows player abilities more.

Again, I've wanted this mortician gone.for 2+ years.

But I will absolutely try my best to be fair.


We couldn't have asked for a much better look than we got at the end.

And if you don't think a defense can COMPLETELY take away your top option for a three point attempt (especially having to go full court in just 4 seconds), than WOW!!!!

It was a well executed play that obviously was practiced. It was designed solely for that situation.

I suspect with our starting PG out, the kid who shot took his place, but just guessing. Apparently our back up PG isn’t as good so he came out.

Truer words have never been spoken.

They keep score for a reason. It doesn't matter how, who or why.

All that matters is your record PERIOD!!!!!

Our current "coach" has a record of 14-41, and that is indefensible. Especially when it's been shown we can win with the right coach here.

By who? One coach who was only successful because he was breaking the rules? Will Wade post NIL is 10-5 at a much better basketball school with resources.

Dale Brown who also broke the rules.

John Brady took us to the final 4. Those dudes came to LSU for free, right dipshit??? Does your dumbass believe that our 2019 (football) best team ever was LEGALLY recruited???

Google Zion's family home while he played one year for the saint coach K. Also do a.little research on how Chris Duhon was recruited out of Louisiana by Saint K.

Do the same for the legendary Wizard of Westwood.

Google all the Dodge Charger pictures ONLINE showing Bama recruits "next to dey rides" after committing.

Who in the MOTHERFLUCK do you think the Amite barber was, and what purpose did he serve in Bama's ILLEGAL recruiting efforts???

Every big time schools and HC that is successful is FILTHY.

You truly are stupid and demonstrate this with EVERY POST you make.

He hadn't played all game, has played less than 10 minutes in the last 4 games combined and has had 1 3-pointer in that stretch. Mackinnon on the other hand hit 4 of his 9 three-point attempts yesterday and has hit 12 threes in his last 4 games. Mackinnon would have been the much better option by anyone's standard. He was pretty much the only reason we were in the game.

Perhaps he didn’t trust anyone else to make the entry pass that had to be absolutely perfect to even have a chance.

Well then he needs to correct that pronto. Hell, Mackinnon hit the backboard attempting to throw one of the passes in earlier in the game as pointed out earlier.
