This is just painful to watch. 

Jarrett Durham just said it, "I got to question the effort at this point!" 

Yep, they've checked out.

And of course their guy hits an open 3 with almost no time on the clock to put the halftime lead back to 9!  Great defense there!

It's laughable at this point. If we end the year on a 9 game losing streak next week that would just be insane

1ST HALF NOTES 
1. Mason turns the ball over a lot 
2. Both guards take dumb shots 
3. Defense plays waaaaay off players at the three and can't close out. Even if they do they are to aggressive and their man goes right by them.(Coaching)
4. Steel needs to play more aggressive so we can see what he can do
5. Like Robinson 
6. Where is Q and Castro? Seasons over, now its time to scout.

Bet a guy at work before the season that we would have a winning record this year. Was giving it to him pretty good when we we're 15-7. I should be getting a text any minute now.

Hey, go look at my odds thread.  Boy am I relieved no one took me up on a few ones I was offering a few weeks ago.

BTW, we celebrated my wife's birthday in New Orleans the last weekend in January. I even watched the game I had recorded when I got home!  My God, they have not won for one whole month!

This is beyond pathetic!
 

Econ, you are kidding right???  Have you followed the team?  Did you look at their rotation for the last 10 games?  Takes time???  This is year 4 and next year his two top scorers will be gone.  I'll stop there.  If you haven't been following everything going on with his lack of accountability, etc.  The only reason he will be here two more years is because DU can't afford to buy him out.  They are stuck.

And with a three point lead, we get the rebound and instantly throw a stupid turnover pass that Fordham converts into a three!

Why do I even bother watching this?

For those of you who are worried about what the dukes will be like with mason and dc....rest easy. 
Although mason's offensive talent is incredible these two just killed us with multiple turnovers, terrible close outs, and even worse distributing. 
Next years roster will produce a more balance team...I hope. 

That's it. I am done for the year!  Don't care anymore. Not wasting one more second of my life on this trainwreck of a season, this utter failure of a coach and this talentless program!

Don't care to see them get blown out by St. Joe's and don't care to watch them lose in the special ed round of the A-10 Tourney!!!!!!

See ya guys, I might be back next fall!

One note though. Will be watching the ladies with bated breath to make the Dance!  At last something I can be proud of!  Go Coach Burt! Go Ladies!

Go to Hell Jim Ferry and coaching staff!

Not stirring the RE pot BUT, he had a winning program going, we are in DAP/NÉE mode with little hope in sight.

I'm tuned out, but will be watching our ladies!!!! Total collapse makes it more likely Ferry will be coaching for his job next year. The media ignores Duquesne, but they'll begin to take some shots at him now, which can only help.

Actually, you are right, not really Micah and Coulters fault.  Ferry did this.  Didn't set up a proper rotation off the bench (doesn't know how, really) Ferry didn't establish a real point guard to set plays and feed to the 2 scoring guards. Ferry didn't use the bigs on this team ( that should have been the center of scoring on this team)  Just because Micah and Derrick played 40 minutes every game was because Ferry really doesn't have a clue how to  coach let alone get to the "next level".  At this point Ron would be the next level. IRONICALLY, Ferry is being paid way more than Ron??  I guess the next level meant "in cost" not performance?  Go figure?
