#98: I agree. Nobody should ever express critical opinions about UH football or the athletic department. Don’t ask questions. God. Who would do such a thing? Everyone should just cheer and smile, dammit, and wave your flag. You’re not supposed to think. Just clap your hands and keep giving money and pray that everything works out.

That’s why dave reardon is such a hack. how DARE he have an opinion that doesn’t back UHAD and the football program 100%. Doesn’t he know that the role of the press is to be a cheerleader for whoever is in power???

If we are looking for a kicker, there is a kid from Redondo Union High School that kicked a 49 and 47 yard field goals in one game. His name is Dominik Eberle, not sure if he is committed anywhere but he is a senior.

Finally, in the Mountain West, only three teams score 21 points or less– Hawaii, Wyoming, and UNLV– all the other teams in the conference average more than 21 points a game. San Diego State is the next up from the lowest three at just over 23 points per game. So not easy to win games by scoring only 21 points.

Just to add to the 30 point rule. In the Pac 12, only two teams average less than 30 points per game. And in the SEC, only three teams average less than 30 points per game.

Maddog50, in college the rule is you must score 30 points to win consistently. In order to win consistently, coaches want to control a game NOT guarding a 3 point lead, 3 points behind, or tied or within one possession of being tied. If you score early or always have the threat of scoring 30, you help your defense by forcing the opposing team to throw more and become more predictable and thus more open to blitzing and forcing turnovers and interceptions. Especially today with explosive offenses, thirty points is the target.

I checked the UH site for any job openings for head basketball coach or interim basketball coach and found nothing. What does that tell you?

If UH wants to clean house and show contrition to the NCAA the school should hire it’s next head basketball coach or interim that’s squeaky clean. Right? Yet the rumors surrounding the current interim coach suggests otherwise. Does that make sense?

The hiring of the law firm– experienced at dealing with NCAA issues– by UH and the decision to impose sanctions on itself based on the advice of the law firm were good. However, UH should have hired this firm sooner and maybe the investigation and sanctions may not have gone the way they did. The investigation by the NCAA was not taken seriously enough. UH should have hired a law firm experienced in NCAA investigations to do its own investigation so early on the UH would know what it was dealing with and be able to put the facts in the best light– that is what lawyers do for many big time schools investigated. It is too late once the NCAA is turned loose and it encounters some people joking about the investigation, and some efforts to cover things up. We all saw one “story” of what was going on, and the NCAA saw another and more– all coming out in a disorganized mess looking as bad as possible for UH. The law firms conclusions were apparently very severe (it was rumored that the firm thought that loss of scholarships was a possibility given the facts which involved). The only way for UH to show it had cleaned house and fixed the problems that occurred was to fire the coaches on whose watch the infractions occurred and to suspend at least one of the players involved– Gib and Akana were hit with the responsibility they already had to hopefully prevent more sanctions on the school. Maybe early investigation by the law firm would not have helped Gib keep his job, but it would have put the facts in the best light early on and prevented the way facts tumbled out over the long investigation by the NCAA.
