We're all painfully aware of the trend on this web board. Do you have to **** on every single thread with your opinion of how bad a job Coach G is doing? It seriously doesn't apply to every single thread. May I suggest you start a thread called "I think Coach G is doing a lousy job" and every day/hour/moment you can post to that thread. Is it really too much to ask for the rest of us to be able to have some quiet enjoyment of this board?

And for the record I'm not sure I'm a Coach G fan because I was less than impressed with Thursday's exhibition but I was only able to stay for the first half. So I'll withhold further opinion until the season opens. I just don't want to be characterized as a sunshine pumper.

Unfortunately, it appears to be too much to ask. So I intend to change my approach. Whenever I see a post from the one opinion wonder, I'll just scroll on by,

Very excited to see what Chas will do as a soph. She was amazing as a freshman. Also can't wait to see what kind of impact a healthy Reed will have. This will be G's first year with a team full of mostly her recruits. I like the type of players that are coming under her. Should prove for exciting games ahead...

Oh yes, I've been scrolling right past now for quite some time WBBNUT. What I wouldn't give for an ignore button!!! LOL!

 

[Seattle4UT]

NO DOUBT. Your posts do nothing for me!!!!

 

[UTExinPDX]

I think Seattle's first post (second under this topic) is how the Big XII coaches predicted UT's finish in the league, not the AP WBB preseason poll.

Seattle may be realizing that the trend did actually start before Coach G became coach since he included Jody's last two years as coach.

My point was PDX that Texas has a history of starting the season with high expectations in polls only to see the actual result be worse than projected by the so-called experts.

Ignore anything posted by Seattle4UT and you will be a better person. He/she can go over to the A&M board and lick their boots as much as desired.
