Pretty much a Rubicon moment.

I hate this situation during a season. I feel for everyone.

Without an incredible turnaround that leads to a substantial ending, my guess is this is the last you’ll see of this era.

The part of the situation I like least is … if what I’m stating is truth … only fans want to see wins. And not all of them do want wins (which is crappy, but it happens). With “decisions made”, they don’t want to be forced to change course and delay the inevitable. They just hope it peters out and goes silently in the night without a whimper. It gets much worse for them when there’s a chance to turn things around. By chance, I mean legitimate, not far fetched Cinderella stuff. If there is a legitimate chance, it can get ugly (we’ve seen that before, hamstringing a program in various ways for the greater good of an immediate goal achievement). This team isn’t good, the motivation and effort has been painfully low. If/when they catch wind, it’s either roll over and die or fight. I don’t see fight in this team.

It’s stupid to think Harper isn’t prepared and isn’t checking out options.
