Matt Perrault Bagging on Marshall - calls him a Jackass

[Aargh]

Altman called a TO with 50 seconds left while up by 16 points. It's hard to come up with a tactical or strategic reason to do that, but he had a TO - why not use it?

I imagine there wasn't much to do in WSU's huddle other than discuss CU's inbounds plays, which includes a cut, lob, dunk for an immediate 2 points.

Coming out of the TO, CU ran that play. WSU recognized it and defended it. Dotzler looked at the cutter, who was covered, and then inbounded into the backcourt.

If WSU doesn't recognize the play, it's 2 points for CU, WSU gets the ball with about 48 seconds left and CU gets the last possession. There's the strategy. I think Altman was using the final seconds of the game to practice for an extra possession in a future, and probably closer, game.

Even if it's good practice for CU's players and teaching late-game strategy to those players, any coach hates to see his team used as the practice squad by an opposing coach.

I will continue to ignore Hack P and his show and blog and/or anything else he has. I'd suggest the rest of you ignore him too but that won't happen. I will not contribute to any hits on any website he's affiliated with.

Amen, sir. There are trolls everywhere, our job is to not feed them.

Is it me, or has Moron been quite today. If i was a betting man, he was told to quiet this subject from his GM. In a down economy, the last thing an AM radio station wants to do is piss off the people who supply them money. Looks to me as if the Moron's family is more important than his mouth. Talk to me Moron.

Wow, i'm not a regular over at Blowme Cafe but you are not kidding about that guy...he checks out ALL the message boards. I knew he posted on BJ Cafe, but man...this guy is taking it to the next level LOL.

He's ridiculous and all of Creighton are his little lemmings. I'm loving the extra hate...St Louis ought to be a GREAT time this year...hope we are sitting right next to the Creighton fans!!!

I gotta say, Coach Marshall is kind of being a baby about the deal. If you're at home and can send a conference foe to the bus with a bang, then do it. The best cure for this is to play better and run it up on them in our gym.

My two cents, that and $4.83 will get you a coffee at Starbucks.

I personally think there's a bigger baby out there. And that person is an author of a multi-page thread on an internet message board.

The Geek of Blowmaha lives on.

Thing is, and I may be wrong as I didn't listen to the postgame show, but it seems like all of this is over 1 sentence where Marshall just said he was gonna "put that one away"....to me it's not Marshall making a big deal. He said 1 sentence in a post game show. Yet this idiot from Omaha does a whole segment on this 1 sentence and blows it further out of proportion and even infers more than what is really there?

The way it sounded and the fact that this yahoo took the time to talk about it I thought that Marshall went on a 5 min rant about the thing. But from what I have read it doesn't seem that he made THAT much of a deal about it.....did he?

Sell Out where are you. I know you are reading this..... Wait maybe your sponsors have you by the ...... Talk is cheap Matty from Mass. I look forward to your broadcast Jan 17. Hopefully its from Eck Stadium, Moron.

You know what I like about this? My Christmas gift and first in person game of the season will be even more fun.

Really?

An AM local sports radio guy has this many panties in a bunch?

It's not like their robbing from the rocket surgeon employment pools to fill those positions, guys. It's an AM local sports radio guy. AM. Local. Sports. Radio.

Before the internet and podcasts came around, they had an audience of, like, a hundred. Now it's maybe a thousand people who will download them, fast forward to the douchebaggery, and go on to the next turd so they don't have to suffer another minute thinking about their miserable jobs.

I'll help you all out here by letting you know exactly when an AM local sports radio guy's opinion matters:

NEVER.

Not now, not a few years ago, not a few years from now. Never. They get paid to be idiots so you don't have to. All their life, all their work, all their sweat, and all their tears come down to a few moronic sound bites that they'll throw out like some verbal terrorist just to make a BANG here and a BOOM there so that, maybe for just one moment, they can feel like they've actually done something.

But don't be fooled.

Wichita AM Sports Guys, on the other hand.... ;)

I think it's time we bring rjl's blue gnat signature out of retirement.

Congrats Shockernet, we got featured in this clown's latest blog post!

http://www.mattperrault.blogspot.com/

Paranoia officially settles in.

I don't think I've ever seen a media member get wrapped up in internet message boards as he has and then to go one step further and write on and on about it in his 'blog'.

Thin-skinned nerd can dish it, but he sureeeeeeeee can't take it!

Did you notice how he didn't give the address or name of ShockerNet or provide a link so his readers could look at the actual comments we made? As for Dana's "greatness," one criticism we have made was his lack of success in the NCAA tourney. A great coach should have more (some?) success on the big stage. How does "Matt Perrault" address this weakness in Dana's resume?

[SpanglerFan316]

Why was his blog even posted on here...what a tool. He's getting just what he wants, exposure. And he'll continue to blog about the Shocks so we'll read his garbage. Look at his picture...TOOL! He'll say anything to make the Creighton fans feel all warm and fuzzy inside and be satisfied with mediocrity. (Is he on Creighton's payroll?) If he truly believes half the stuff he's saying, he is one of the most uninformed, fact manipulating media personalities since Rush Limbaugh. I think our success on the national level speaks for itself. Creighton can only wish to match our accomplishments someday. Let me know when they've reached the Sweet 16, Elite 8, Final 4...win a national title in any sport, sure, they can include Soccer. WSU has reached the NCAA tourney in pretty much every sport recently except Women's Basketball. Has Creighton's Basketball program ever in their history been ranked higher than our #8 ranking a couple years ago? If so, I guess we can go back a few more years to our #1 ranking...but I'm guessing the best they've ever done was 12th(?) when they came into the Coliseum and we sent them home with a loss. Keep spoon feeding the fans Matt. And when you get a chance head over to this site, I know you'll like it.
