No meltdown pic?
He thought you were inviting him for other reasons, not realizing Teddy was already the beat cop on this block.
I was going to propose that we change the subject to religion.
I don’t understand what the big deal was. This is the kids fault. Like Izzo said it is a one and done time. You have to step it way up this time of year. I don’t think the people who are complaining about this ever played sports. They probably believe everyone is a winner and no one loses. At this point of the season you have to grow up as a player. Freshman are now sophomores. Have the world not seen Kirby, Dabo, Coach K, Saban, and many others chew a kid out.
I also can’t believe that the world is saying this is similar to Bobby Knight. This is no where near to that. Knight would have killed the boy and burried him at half court for how he was playing. Izzo had the right to chew him out
Ok...sort of see where this is going, and seeing no meltdown, no pic. Now if does start to get into a meltdown, I will post a pic...and more....😎
Hate hearing how tough love or being pushed is the “old school” way of doing things.... even outside of sports. Bros and broettes need to know the difference between love and tough love. They are both to make you better. One is great and one stings, but it’s for their benefit
I've never noticed Coach K lunge scream or shake a finger in a player's face.
I'm not saying I care one way or the other about a coach's style, as long as he doesn't cross a line like Bob Knight repeatedly did. Basically don't assault anybody, that should go for anybody other than drill instructors and those training martial arts, boxing, etc.
He has had his moments if I recall correctly. Not knight level by any means.
I don't know about you guys but I'm very proud of WC for not taking the bait laid out for him
JRT1812, we've all had our moments. I recall Dean Smith wouldn't let go of the Clemson HC's hand after a game. The Clemson coach was trying to pull away while Smith held him with one hand and shook his fist at him with his free hand. That of course was very atypical, but Dean was obviously quite upset.
I know Coach K gets all the love these days, and rightly so. But man, Dean Smith was some kind of basketball coach. Legendary, larger than life.
Yep! No need for it and keeps a good thread going......glad to see it.
I hear ya wc bro. Maybe Izzo has more moments than Coach K... I have no idea. Just saying I thought it was fine and would be happy if my son had the opportunity to play for either. Also, that I disagree with other outlets saying it was uncalled for.
MML. Bait? Arent we all a school of fish
AnotherDawg. Dean Smith was also a truly great man.
Depends on what school you're in.....
