Thorr should tell him that he is canned if he calls another timeout after we start to go on a run and see if it sinks in then.

A long time ago I heard a coach yelling about how he was "coaching my ass off." I'm sure that in Cox's mind the Cox TO is his version of coaching his ass off.

Just watching this trash and thinking every player can and should be criticized this season, except for one.

Malik Martin does what he does, and not too much more.

If Cox is gone, I’d want Malik back, if only for one more year.

I’d want Thomas back as well.

The rest can kick rocks.

Did you know he’s the 2nd best coach in his first 100 games behind Frank Keaney??

I mean it could just be that he was left one of the best turn key situations to walk into as a head coach and had enough talent to win before he squandered it…

I think Ish needs direction and coaching. I think he can develop with a good coach as a 2 guard.

Otherwise I think you’re spot on.

Walker's specialty is getting a rebound off a missed free throw and is terrible in our man to man defense. Got burned several times vs Umass and has struggled tonight.

Really feel bad for the players who are being led by a coach who has no clue.

Cannot believe this is where we are but I was much more invested in UConn tonight. Just wanted to not hate college basketball for a little while, and watching a Dan team was like wrapping myself in a warm blanket.

I’ve hated UConn my whole life.

This is truly embarassing. We play sloppy, ugly playground basketball...

VCU is playing badly!!!

We weren't this bad earlier in the year. When a coach losses a team, this is what you get. . If a potential hire reviews these past two seasons and says im not coaching at URI because they got rid of their coach in the middle of year 4, then I don't want him. So get rid of Cox after this game, and let's see if Boz can at least get our players to show up.

It’s funny - when you look at the ESPN app for stats, it lists the Mitchell’s both as centers for their position.

I agree with that. Because they’re big, slow, classic rim protectors.

Only an absolute joke of a coach play 2 centers on the floor at the same time in an age where the 4 on most teams is playing out by the 3 point line.

Stand up to the mom coach. It’s your team.

Who cares. We should’ve learned this lesson.

Hire the right coach and it will fall into place.

I certainly don’t care enough about the twins to think we need them here for a rebuild.

Mom will pull them anyway. They’ll find another situation.
