Also just let guys drive straight to the hoop playing zero defense in final minute of regulation. Frustrating to watch.

Final play in regulation...
Don't foul the 3 point shooter!
UMass: Fouls the 3 point shooter.

Frank's postgame radio comments...
"Embarrassing display of individual and help defense."
Zone got us back in the game, but our older guys made too many mistakes.
Moody yesterday in practice and we got what we deserved.
Guard play was really bad.
We haven't risen to the challenge that is league play.
I've tried to tell everyone that we're not gonna run thru the MAC. It's a tough league.
At the half: who's going to take charge?
"We've become a quiet, whiney, blamey team."

Frank is a worst coach always blames the players and not himself. Watch him on the bench always shaking his head even when they are playing good.

Fire Frank and Ryan into the sun, until then don’t expect me to lift a fucking finger to help this program.

As well as whiney & blamey. Teams generally mimic their coach's energy.

Whiny Frank DOES NOT represent UMass well. It’s embarrassing to continually put up with his negativity and demeaning antics.

It pains me to say this. It's also easy for me to say this because I'm out-of-state and can't go to games anyway.

However, the only way to cause real changes is to boycott games, stop donating to the Collective, stop donating to the school, and don't buy merch.

They don't care what we say on social media (although maybe that's a good thing lol). They don't care about our emails. Reyes has one foot out the door. He's another fraud who never really cared about UMass. He won't step up and sack Bamford.

We need collective action. That won't happen with this fanbase for a number of reasons. Therefore expect the same results to continue and the same "leaders" to remain in place.

Maybe this fanbase will pleasantly surprise me.

PS: I thought any complaints about Frank's demeanor and constant yelling were just delusional Amherst libtards???? Guess we were correct again.

The lack of situational awareness and execution is frustrating at end of games. Getting the ball in after a made basket vs. the press, lack of urgency in late games when they need to get a quick shot off. It's just not someting you ever thought you'd see from a Frank Martin team.
