2 down -3.293298e-12 to go. Like I said from the very beginning, there are some things that Tubby does that I absolutely do not agree with. One of those things is the benching of people after one mistake. Ramel is one of those players that does not pass go or collect two-hundred dollars when he throws a bad pass, he goes directly to the bench. Tubby has to be trying to teach him a lesson, since Ramel appeared to be such a selfish player earlier in his career. Then there is Patrick. He’s a senior, he’s not going to be changing his playing style at this point.
Case in point: With about 7:30 left in the game today it was tried at 50-50. Patrick gets the ball at the top of the key dribbles over to the side of the court tries to go behind his back and the ball goes out of bounds. It appears, (I say that only because this is what I see sitting at home) that Tubby benches him because of that. Patrick doesn’t return until 2:53 left when we are then down 61-55. I just would have liked to have had him as a shooting option during that portion of the game.
This does not change my opinion of the overall situation. Tubby should not and will not be fired at the end of this season. Even if we lose in the first round of the NCAA’s. It will not happen this year.
