I'll tell you exactly how I felt. I was proud of every single one of them (minus Ellis). They fought their asses off all night. They lost their leading scorer and rebounder and kept the game within striking distance. Then they friggin won. I was on pins and needles but I was with them. They are our guys and the toughness they showed in the face of monumental adversity all year has earned my respect. So I stayed with them until the buzzer just like I will do on Saturday. Calling Gary soft and calling Troy garbage and saying KJ sucks is not constructive. It's just lazy and is unbecoming of an adult who is supposedly rooting for 18-22 year olds.

They'll get over it. The 15-16 old in McDonald's drive thru gets talked to alot worse by guys like you. Let me see them play with heart and toughness Hampton displayed against Kentucky because that wasn't it how we played much of last night.
 
Fought what Purdue ran out of gas and we hit them with a knockout punch. We got destroyed for 39:45. I was quite embarrassed Purdue out of all teams were physically kicking our ass.

We only had 9 scholarship players and THEY RAN OUT OF GAS??? I guess we have unlimited strength. Get out of here.
 
What exactly was said that has some of you guys so bent out of shape? What do you expect to see on a fan board in a game where we were down 7 with 48 seconds left and had our starting C ejected again?

I don't have much issue with the mass suicides that occurred early in the second half when the game and the season prematurely ended. Those comments made me chuckle actually. It was the ones directed at players and coaches that I think went overboard and the continual wishing that Mick would get back as soon as possible, which is obviously suggesting that LD sucks, which couldn't be further from the truth. In my opinion, he has done an amazing job! I'm not sure the season would have been better with Mick pacing the sidelines. But this is not to take anything away from Mick moreso than just giving tremendous props to LD.
 
It's a power play. I can't stand the "look how much better I am than all of you" attitude.

I can't stand arrogance either but I haven't heard that out of anyone really. Nobody has directed it at any one person so who are they saying they are better than???? They are just general observations about "some" comments which haven't even been pointed out individually

Fair enough.

Please don't be hypocritical. You've bashed Mick every thread on here about weak recruiting. So by calling recruiting weak your basically indirectly talking down on players. Just not man enough to say how you really feel
 
It's ridiculous that you weren't go talk shit until we won. talk shit Saturday

I dont want to "talk shit". That is my whole point. I didnt mention anyone's name. YOU asked what the viewpoint was of someone who didnt post during the game. I gave it to you and you said something about talking shit to 15 and 16 year olds at Mcdonalds. Whatever the hell that meant. Just leave it alone DOG. I think you are one of the most moronic posters I've ever come across. You just spew random dumbass shit that has no place in reality or thought. Im sure the other posters are sick of us arguing so Im just going to block you so we dont have to keep up this run around. Sorry to all the other posters for all the back and forth.
 
well one guy has eyes that the average human being doesn't. I think the rest of us on the board would consider ourselves average human beings.

Why you on online board to just watch and criticize what everybody has to say?

Champions never wanna be average or like anybody else. We set the bar. Show me one top 10 team that popped champagne after win yesterday
 
They dumped water on their associate coach. I wouldn't exactly call that poppin bottles Jay Z style.

Man he's head coach right now. Never seen that before my expectations of the program is much higher than that. What's next storm court when we beat Xavier?
 
ZING!!!!! You are so right! If the Administration was smart they would fire Mick Cronin tomorrow! When being an assistant under Pitino is the only thing on your resume you dont deserve a job like Cincinnati!

My comment was an indictment on the selection process, not Cronin. I've already said I don't blame him for going to UofL. He wasn't going to get any decent opportunities working for Huggs. What's sad to me is that LD is a very good coach that never received a decent look, and the guy at Manhattan (another Pitino protege) keeps his job despite misrepresenting his CV. It's mindless name recognition: He coached with Pitino, so he must be good. Kudos to Cronin for understanding the realities and using it to his advantage.

He's still overpaid (no surplus in year nine?), and, despite his claim, he didn't rebuild Murray State (seven returning seniors when he took over, and his first year was his best year).
