College Basketball 2009-10

[bcl412]

At halftime for both games.

 

Iowa Basketball: 15

Iowa Football:14

[Magnetic Curses]

Brandon Paul and D.J. Richardson aren't starting. Unreal.

 

bruce is getting real good at teaching life lessons, notsomuch at coaching basketball. he needs to remember who his big recruits are and play them or risk losing any in the future.

Yeah, gave Jordan a big hug when he subbed out. Didn't even talk to Paul. One is a top40 player in his class and a future pro. The other is an awful basketball player. Of course Bruce is tight with the crappy one.

oh, good lord.

 

still, i'm wondering why paul gets pulled whenever he takes the ball to the hole and doesn't finish and keller never ever ever passes and stays in. maybe weber is just more comfortable coaching lousy players with grit.

Yep being able to identify with and relate to talented kids isn't important for a college basketball coach. At all.

LOL

 

Really.

Because he wasn't able to relate to guys like Deron, right?

Especially the last one he got yanked for. There was no time left on the shot clock. He had to do something with the ball.

Not for almost an entire year. He had to hold a fake funeral.

[Guest]

Paul came up hobbling after that play.

 

Plus, Bruce has been rotating his guys like crazy.

I'm glad to see him playing Griffey more. He's gonna be a good player. I didn't realize Paul was hurt. If that's the case that's understandable.

[Magnetic Curses]

i think deron had the right amount of grit.

 

whatever, enough kids see you bench your talented players and they'll just stop coming. i don't think bruce should be fired, he should just play the kids and stop trying to teach lessons, it's not working.

 

paul is going to be [expletive] star if bruce doesn't ruin him.

I'm done here. It's beyond ridiculous.

 

here - Bruce is the devil incarnate that is out to purposefully ruin the life of his prize recruits.

No you're right Deron and Dee loved Bruce from day one.

I hope you do realize too that the super elite guards, Wayne Blackshear types, are never going to come play for a guy that sits a stud so Jeff Jordan can get minutes. It just isn't going to happen.

I already said you're right. He is truly trying to ruin the guys he's been recruiting for years.

He's definately doing a great job. I expect us to kick some butt in the NIT this year.

nah, i don't think he's trying to ruin anything. he's just more interested in teaching things that don't relate to basketball.

I heard if you play The Beatles' albums backwards, they clearly state, "Bruce is the Devil."

[Magnetic Curses]

i'm not a bruce-hater at all, i'm just hoping we get some tourney wins soon.

 

oh, and if bruce benches richmond, i can't see the kid keeping his mouth shut. he'll lose him.

That's just stupid. Of course they didn't like him from day one, he was the guy replacing the charismatic coach that recruited them. It's like one of your parents getting re-married. You aren't going to like the replacement by default. In many cases, guys like Deron and Dee transfer before they even meet the new guy.

you're right - he's not the devil.

 

He's actually a Purdue spy sent in to sabotage the Illinois basketball program. Just ask IG.

[Magnetic Curses]

haha, okay

[Guest]

Great pass by mini-Mike on that assist.

[Magnetic Curses]

iowa is really white and not in a duke kind of way.

[Magnetic Curses]

that one guy kind of looks like one of the inglorious basterds.

[bukie]

Good defensive effort tonight, especially in the first half.

[Keener98]

I hate Mike Tisdale. I hate Illinois always having 7 foot white guys who are skinny as [expletive], and cant rebound worth [expletive].
