I just find it silly that there is any discussion or suggestion that Ron is on a short leash. Modest success (as even defined by a winning season) was impossible at DU for 35 years until Ron came here, let alone going to back to back post season tourneys. What he has accomplished is simply amazing. We are very lucky to have Ron as our coach. -- Duquesne Dukes Basketball Forum

In reply to: MFE08 's message, "1) Poor analogy; I'd take Aniston over Jolie anyway. But that's personal preference, I guess. 2) There are plenty of coaches who achieved modest success but were replaced in an effort to move to "the next level." As RE left all of his gigs before really having the chance to make the NCAAs, we don't know if that's something he is capable of yet." on Saturday, August 14, 06:20:59pm

it was around this time last year that we were all worried that another nit or possible ncaa bid would mean RE would get called up to a BCS school. funny how a 16-16 year changes everything. I believe, unless something catastrophic happens, RE will be given an oppurtunity to see this incoming class of freshman thru (NT) -- c, Tuesday, August 17, 04:50:39pm
