For those who come on here after each loss to scream about firing Martin, a look at some other coaches should be in order. Mike Krzyzewski won an average of 13 games in his first three seasons at Duke. In the middle of his fourth season, there was some really vicious "get rid of him" activity going on among Duke supporters and alumni. Fortunately the Duke AD stayed with him. How has that worked out for them?
I don't know if FM can come close to duplicating that as USC but I am willing to stay the course for several more years to find out. Can't be any worse than our record of starting over every few years for a couple decades. There were a couple of minor exceptions like Eddie but, for the most part we have not been any good.
There were several instances of our players hesitating when they should have made a quick move to the basket but, after having the ball jammed down your throat again and again by KY giants, I thought that was understandable. I thought they played with good effort and we were soundly beaten but not embarrassed.
