Coach's Show - 3-2-09

[1979Shocker]

Sure wish Royal would add the rest of the band to the emoticons 8)

Like the cow bell?

Gotta have more cowbell.

I've got a fever, and the only prescription is more cowbell!

Or like this.

Let me see if I can figure out WSU's 2010-11 lineup. (Estimaed weights)

C - Durley - 6'7", 245, Sr; Stutz - 7', 240, Jr.; Orupke - 7' 235, So.
PF - Blair - 6'8", 240, Sr.; Ellis - 6'9", 220, Sr; Hamilton - 6'8", So
SF - Coy - 6'7", 230, So,; Hatch - 6'4", Sr;
SG - Murry - 6'4", Jr.; Kyles - 6'3", Jr.
PG - Mannigault - 6'4" So; Chamberlain - 6'1" Sr.

And one recruit to be named later.

Gonna be some competition for minutes on that team. 5 Sr's on the squad and at least one underclassman at every position. Solid So/Jr group (it would appear) and 5 recruits for 2011-12.

In the UK/aTm/WSU coaching shuffle a few years ago, I'm starting to like the way WSU came out. This Marshall guy does things a little different than we are used to seeing in a very long time.

I added it to the list, if that's ok.

Damn! That's a tall roster.

My favorite part of the show was when Captain Stupid called up and asked when TM's cold streak would end.

"That's it? Well let me look into my crystal ball..."

I never know what to do when I hear those calls.....


1)Turn off the radio. It's too painful to listen to. Sometimes you know this is about to happen, "Go ahead Dennis, you're on with the Coach" is a good warning sign for instance.

2)Scream at the top of my lungs. This usually annoys my family.

3)Cringe in pain at the knowledge that Mike and Gregg have to suffer through this first hand. I have seen enough of their pain in person over the years to feel it myself.

You know for a fan base that is supposed to be pretty knowledgeable there sure seem to be alot of flipping idiots that call in.

Now while those idiots dont represent the fan base as a whole I find it pretty hilarious.

You got one guy *Ron* who calls in and spends about 5 minutes getting to a question while coincidently telling coach "well it should have been done of I would have done"

Then you have Dennis whos a complete MORAN. (yes I know what i just typed and if you arent in the know then buzz off) Hes basically Ron Part Deux. If robots talked they would sound like Dennis.

Then for a few weeks you had some guy calling in *dont know if he still does I've barely had time to listen over the last few weeks) who sounds fairly younger, maybe a mid 30's to early 40's who sounds like hes on the back end of a bad reach around.

And on top of that every week its the same FRIGGIN questions.
'Hey coach tell us about the recruits coming in"
"Hey coach I havent heard anything about any recruits what can you tell us about that"
"Hey coach how will Coy and Blair help the team out next year"
"Hey coach will the new guys help out at all"

Seriously these questions get asked everyweek. Its like people dont even listen.

There was a show a few weeks back where somebody called in and asked Coach about what type of music he liked and if he had an IPOD and what was in it blah blah blah. I smiled after hearing that. Thank you for not being a complete ass hat.

/queue SF chiming in to call me a whiner and SB talking about please and thank yous

[ShockerFever]

I just want you to call in and ask a question that needs to be asked.

[Aargh]

I kind of liked the iPod question. Marshall goes to some concerts and listens to classic rock in the genre that I'd call easy listening (Eagles).

I thought it was interesting to see some the real life side of Marshall. He just does something really unusual for a job. What he does for a job can make him appear to be the job. It's easy to forget he's pretty much a regular person like all of us, except for what he does for a living.

Maybe it's just me, but it seems like Coach Marshall enjoys listening to and answering Ron and Dennis' questions.

Thats because his brain gets a chance to "check out" for a few seconds.

I have a couple of questions in my head concerning Gabe Blair. One of the reasons he left Eastern Carolina was because he didn't like playing center and with his back to the goal.

Will playing the 4 here satisfy him, because the 4 spot still plays with his back to the goal quite a bit?

[Rosewood]

I stopped listening to the coach's show in T's last year because if I heard one more person ask about scheduling KU/KSU and taking red shirt off Durley, I was going set off an EMP so that no radio in our area ever worked again.

It's just you.

Mike and Gregg are just really good at what they do.
