Pretty much.  I'm over the underachieving the last three seasons and the woeful development of the team this season.  This isn't an overreaction.  Even great coaches lose the plot sometimes and need a change. 

hahahaha.  This is a very big overreaction. Underachieving the last three years? Two years ago they were in the Championship game that no one really expected them to get to. Last year they lost a tough game in the quarterfinals, it happens even to the top seed sometimes. Then lost most of their roster. Firing Brown is crazy talk.

Didn't they lose to Hartford after being the number 1 seed 2 years ago?

Last year they lost to Stony Brook in the first round (22-10, 10-6 AE). Year before they went to the championship game (21-14, 10-6 AE). Three years ago they lost to Hartford at home in the first round (24-9, 13-3 AE).

This.

Listen, we're young. We lack some athleticism. But give coach a LITTLE break. The dude had to pick players from the scrap heap because (IMO, don't know this as a fact) he had no idea he was going to be down 2 SRs.

I'm not a big fan of Cremo (defensively, he wasn't great) and I couldn't stand Nichols and his overall attitude/approach (don't care how gifted he was) but NO ONE thought we'd be playing without them this year. We're making due with what we got.

Next year will be the true test...this year was very likely going to be not so good...it just so happens that it's very bad. We all knew it. Did people honestly expect a championship run? It was wishful thinking but I thought this was a 1st round loss team from the beginning. Now, we might not even get that chance.

No championship = wasted season. So what's the difference if the wasted season is 8 wins or 22 wins? Overall we're one of the best in the league...it's not like we've had 8 straight losing seasons. They happen.

Forced to pack the roster with anyone they could find. Tough year.  I'm not worried about years to come. Things went totally off the rails this year. It happens especially when you lose as much as they did and unexpectedly.

It’s everything including coaching, assistant coaches scouting, everyone. It was a free pass this year for everyone, but still absolutely pathetic to lose to Maine at home and by 15 to Lowell.

Gonna go out on a limb fellas.   The entire coaching staff is former players at UA and played for CB.  Is it possible that we could use coaches from different programs and coaches to give a different prospective to practice, recruiting, play calling,and maybe tell CB something different than what he has heard for 18 years?  I know Coach K has some former players on staff usually but Duke is not UA.  Thoughts?
