Gottlieb

[kochHead]

He talks about the Gonzaga game ALL the time when trying to make his point about last years run. I have heard him reference this game 3 or 4 times. It's always the same thing; he talks about how we got hot at the end of the game and played "out of our minds". Ok, fine. We don't win that game unless make shots at the end of the game, true. However, we also had foul trouble that hurt us badly during that game or we might not have had to play "out of our minds" to win. Also, when pointing out the Gonzaga game he dismisses the Ohio State game and Louisville game. Did we or did we not compete with the best teams in the country Doug?

I didn't hear, but a RELIABLE source claims that Seth eviscerated Doug. Good times.

I heard it and Seth had a strong rebuttal for all Doug's garbage. Not sure about eviscerated.

The funny thing is that he also likes to point to Gonzaga as the reason we shouldn't be a 1 seed, because they lost last year. One can't discredit a team for playing out of their minds, and their opponent for losing to said out-of-mind-playing team, at the same time, with any honesty.

Damn, I could not have put it any better myself. Great point.

It makes no sense. We had to play out of our minds to beat an overrated 1 seed, yet I don't believe we trailed for longer than a minute to Ohio State, and led for over 30 minutes against Louisville. Almost never trailed against Pitt, either.

It's like Gonzaga is the only game we played, and that one game somehow is used to simultaneously attack us AND Gonzaga.

How about the fact that Gonzaga played us better than Pitt, Ohio State, or even Louisville?

I would say Louisville's bench had to play "out of it's mind" to beat us...

gonzaga was phenomenal, yes, phenomenal, on the boards that day against one of the best rebounding teams, literally, in the country. too bad for them they just got a bad matchup against a hot team (just like wichita state, with one of their best teams ever, got a bad matchup against vcu the year before).

Pretty much proves not everyone gets a degree of higher learning from OU's little brother!

[GoShox]

Not sure where to put this but putting here since they mentioned goober. Sports talk Radio in OK said OSU should fire Ford and get Marshall. Gottlieb says next coach must be an OSU guy. Dumb on both accounts......he ain't leaving for OSU and they would be fools if they had the chance and didn't get him because he is not from OSU.

Is he looking for a job? He probably should be, but I'm not sure anyone would be hiring.

Wow, I never knew about this: http://articles.latimes.com/1996-09-..._doug-gottlieb

Old news.

Agree. It was a spirited debate.

I understand the questions about how do you compare WSU's record to others b/c of the lack of top 50 teams. I get that. But folks like Gottlieb and ******* seem to do more than question it.

[_kai_]

Gottlieb is the Washington Generals of talk radio. If every talking head was right, how would they have debates? It's awfully swell of Doug to volunteer to be wrong, every single time.

[vancedave56]

He's betting on the Shocks to be upset somewhere in the tournament, and odds are (as with anyone else) they will lose a game somewhere (even to a #2 seed). At that time, he will say, " I told you so."
