102 I am with you, he is trying to feed into the uninformed media's commentary of "it's all the University's fault" without any deep dive into the real facts that we now have a commitment, a new AD, a new supportive President and a unified desire to succeed - not to mention Mr. Ferry's coaching shortcomings. I thought Harper put in eloquently, after thanking and complimenting Ferry, that "the on court results were just not what we wanted" and I would have added "bargained for with the additional money/resources Ferry was provided"! Don't forget guys, Mr. Ferry was supposed to be a "next level" coach! Next level coaches don't blow every close game they are in or 18 point leads to one of the worst teams in the Conference - enough said. I don't go on twitter so I am unfamiliar with how it works (getting old my brothers), but if Ferry did retweet the Zeise bull Oh he definitely retweeted it. It's the first thing on his twitter page the PG logo, the heading "bad coaching is not the problem at Duquesne" or whatever, a big picture of him, and a link to zieses article Last edited by Duques102 (3/15/2017 12:54 pm) Our previous former coach showed way more class than did our former coach when he got the axe! Just sayin'

article then he deserves what he gets. Good Lord, we teach our kids to take responsibility and here is this guy who never once shouldered any of the blame for his abysmal record! Hell, I suspect that contractually to get the buy-out one would be subject to a gag order and if this is Ferry's attempt to skirt around that I would look into a breach of the contractually agreement by Ferry. Again, this is based on presumption, but if in fact what I speculate is accurate then I would nail Ferry for it. Screw him - how is that for personal!!!!
Just saw the second post, you are 100% right about why he deserved to be fired.
