Most disgusting game I have ever seen. Kraus is the game the final 5-7 minutes or so with the game on the line. Literally did not do one thing. Why the hell is Henderson not in? Black checks in with a minute left only to get burned as a guard makes a lay up to make it 63-60 with 19 seconds left. Crawford turns the ball over with 10 seconds left and commits a foul. Absolutely disgusting. I would have thought Orr was trying to blow this game. How does Kraus play 2 minutes in a defensive struggle (46-44 EMU) when our coaches rave about how good he is on the defensive end (I know, he is not), and then we get into a little bit of a shoot out and we never take him off the court? Haha wow. I just dont know what to say.

We led the game for 34 total minutes. Miami didn't win it, we handed it to them.

Again, we have 2 players who can score. Orr recruited a bunch of stiffs who can't score so you live and die with Crawford.

I know what to say, "Coach Orr, we are relieving you of your duties immediately". How much longer do we have to put up this crap product. I wonder what Bill Frack is thinking. I wonder if he second guesses his generous gift??

Here is a little advice for you guys. Live in the now. Your hatred for Orr runs so deep you can't even enjoy the game. It's supposed to be entertainment. Saying that's the most disgusting game you have ever seen is crazy. There were dunks, big plays, a thrilling (but frustrating finish).

We know what we have with Coach Orr. We can't change it. Just accept it and try to enjoy it.

The funny thing is that when the season started we knew exactly what would happen. We all called this.

You are correct Globe except I would like to add an extra point. I played 4 high school sports and 3 club sports in college. Your team is a direct reflection of your coach. Coach Orr has no energy on the sidelines. He is very lethargic and that is how our team plays. And that is the flat out truth. I read the other day that you like watching player develop. You may b interested in watching teams develop but I enjoy watching champions. We will never have a Coach Orr recruited team win a championship because he doesn't have the drive to lead a championship team. GC doesn't have the guts to pull the trigger midseason. I wonder if God would.

What is the point of firing him midseason? This team isn't going to make any sort of post season, they don't have the talent to make any noise in the MAC, and their best players are graduating. Is LaMonte Stone any sort of upgrade?

He should be gone, end of the year. No question. But, what's the point in doing it now?

Orr isn't going anywhere this season. The question is, will he be here next season?

It was disgusting to a player that has more than proven that he cannot score, on the court when we NEED baskets. It is disgusting to take out a player who has the 13th most block shots in the country (averaging significant less minutes than anyone on that list) taken out of a game when we NEED a stop most the game's final minutes.

But yes, the game had exciting moments, you are correct. But those mind boggling decisions by Orr were in my opinion, disgusting.

When you start the season saying....."If he plays the best players we might be good..." You know youre in for a rough season. At this point I am just going to accept it and enjoy the ride.

Orr pays so little attention to detail and he needs detail oriented people around him to be successful. Currently he has a joke of a staff, and he is a mediocre coach on a good day. We all saw this coming. A good coach would have won 20+ games with last years roster. A good coach wouldn't recruit 3 big men in 3 years who can't score 8 ppg in high school. A good coach wouldn't lose to coaches who get fired, then turn around and lose to the new hire the next year. Louis Orr can thank Tommy Amaker, Nate Miller, and the hideous MAC West that he got to be a head coach for as long as he did.
