Coach doing his best Bob Knight impression, I love it! At the end of the day, our players were getting mugged, you could clearly see it on video. Back when I was hooping for a team I would've loved playing for a coach who showed that amount of fire and intensity when it came to sticking up for his players, in sports there is no room to be passive.

Well.... It made ESPN, at least their website. http://www.espn.com/college-sports/s...rsity-montreal. So maybe this belongs in the media love theead.
As for me, a guy from Omaha, what do I think? A little out of control, probably went too far, but I might do the same thing. Not Marshall's best day, but no biggie. Then again, you guys are trending on phog.net, so expect some crap from your Jayhawk friends, neighbors and associates.There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese.Comment

At least he got one good watch shake in as he was exiting the court. I think that was a personal signal to the Redbirds fans.Comment

Well, he made Sportscenter, at 7:15. 15 minutes in.

[QUOTE=WuDrWu;666001]Well, he made Sportscenter, at 7:15. 15 minutes in.
But anytime WSU is on ESPN its good right? This is exactly why a few of us believe coach was out of line. Getting T'd up in an exhibition is not the problem, getting a 2nd T, also not a problem. Going after the refs like a frickin MLB manager...lands you on sports center and something he will have to explain to families as he sits in their living rooms recruiting. Not to mention any ill will of major donors. Who knows, maybe all the donors and potential recruits will view it as 'intensity'.-Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind-

[QUOTE=Slalomshocker;666002]It will be very easy to explain. Tell recruits that one players was already out with stitches and a concussion and that he had his players back. This will not hurt recruiting in any way.Originally posted by WuDrWu View PostComment

On a lighter note.
"I'm definitely not proud of my reaction to that situation, but at some point your players have to know you're going to stand up for them and you've got some fight in you," he told the Wichita Eagle. "Once I reacted, I said, 'I might as well get my money's worth.'"
Indeed, Gregg, straight cash homie.Comment

[QUOTE=Stickboy46;666003]I'm merely pointing out what the repercussions will be. I personally feel he could have accomplished the same thing being a whole lot more professional than he was. As I said previously, maybe the donors and prospective recruits/families will see it as passion and intensity. We are all entitled to our opinions. Mine is that WSU was not represented well. Nobody is going to ask if the officiating was terrible when they see the clip on ESPN. They are just going to see a coach losing his mind in a game that doesn't matter.Originally posted by Slalomshocker View Post
And before I get words put in my mouth, no, I am not suggesting Marshall be fined, suspended, stoned or burned at the stake. We all make mistakes. He is just paid a boat load of cash to be the public figure of the university and I hold him to slightly higher expectations than 3 tech's and an ejection in 3 games on an exhibition trip.-Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind-

Just basketball.
1. As long as Kelly can rebound and trap, he is going to get his minutes.
2. Peyton is huge and strong, but he can't guard a 2.
3. Smith has a looooong way to go.
4. Shamet and McDuffie are gonna be real good (but you knew that).
5. I will be shocked if Shaq averages 15 minutes a game.
6. A Hamilton in a china closet.
7. Willis can be a dominating inside presence if he wants.Comment
