        How does the announcer say "that's just good basketball" to that might be a flagrant foul?

        That was an easy call without going to the monitors.

        Is #30 always dirty or did he just get the itch to be a scumbag at that moment? I haven't watched a single Texas game.

        As to the fans, I understand being pissed at a dirty play, but it was called immediately. The ref even showed that it was more than a common foul right off the bat. What the hell more do you want? What does throwing **** on the court accomplish? I'd get it if the refs didn't call anything or only called a common foul. Throwing things still wouldn't accomplish anything but I'd get it.

              All Coaches that address a rowdy crowd will be judged against Billy Tubbs.

              And they will all continue to take a back seat to Billy.


              Grant could have gone with something like:

              "No matter how big an ass Cunningham is, you can't throw things onto the floor. Stick 'em."

                I must admit, I was waiting for something like that.

                    Long Beach State AD says he fired Dan Monson to inspire team
                    https://www.espn.com/mens-college-ba...n-inspire-team


                    SALT LAKE CITY -- Long Beach State's athletic director said the timing of his decision to fire coach Dan Monson was done with the hope it might trigger the exact run that led the team on its unexpected trip to the NCAA tournament. "My belief and hope is that by doing what I did and the timing of it, they would play inspired, and that's what they did," Bobby Smitheran told The Associated Press on Thursday, a few hours before the Beach lost 85-65 to Arizona in the first round. "I'm not trying to pat myself on the back, but it worked."...

                            Are you sure about that? He seems like he is still on the job now. That is, if you are referencing the AD.

                              LBSU has already hired SDSU assistant coach Chris Acker.

                              You might be mixing this up with the Fresno State AD who fired Justin Hutson earlier this month and then was fired recently while they still have an open coaching position.
