This team looks awful. 19 points in one half, 1 assist on 8 baskets. They have as many fouls as field goals. I listened to someone on talk radio say that ODU is the worst team in the field. He also said to take the under and take ODU and the points and bet big. I am not a gambler but if anyone took his advice they would have won. He also said that of the top 20 seeded teams Purdue has covered the spread less than any other team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps he should give a more even effort on a national stage? Lol I got a good laugh out of watching it though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BREAKING NEWS: College basketball coach yells at college basketball player in huddle Gimme a break. Amazing how soft our society has become. Couldn't agree more. Here are Izzo's quotes as to why he was so upset with Henry: "What's wrong with challenging a kid that makes some mistakes?'' Izzo said after the No. 2 seed Spartans' 76-65 win. "Aaron Henry -- trust me -- did some things that you can't do as a starter on a top-5 team at the end of your freshman year. They were effort-related. "I did get after him. He did respond. He did make a couple of big buckets. He did make some big free throws but that's not good enough. It's one-and-done time. The 'my-bads' are out the window." I know people like to hate on Izzo on here, and I get why, but there's a certain former IU coach who would have done exactly the same thing or more, and would have said similar things, although probably with a little more colorful language. Might have helped if our current coach had done this to a couple of guys during that losing streak, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billingsley99 Posted March 22, 2019 Report Share Posted March 22, 2019 Put the Izzo hate aside and there is nothing to see here. A coach doing his job.

When some you know what needs chewing out he needs to chew it out! Have you seen Archie on the sideline? Dude can get plenty heated/amped up. Based on his postgame comments following NIT round 1, sounds like he challenges/mixes it up in the locker room quite a bit too. I still see your point though, I think there's been a handful of times this season where we're all so frustrated seeing jogging/lack of passion/energy on the court and we just want Archie to grab the player by the collar and tell them to wake up.

When some you know what needs chewing out he needs to chew it out! Numerous times this year I saw Archie jet off the sidelines toward a certain player when a timeout was called, and I'm sure it wasn't to give them a pat on the rear. So I think he does chew them out, but without the Izzo histronics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zlinedavid Posted March 22, 2019 Report Share Posted March 22, 2019 I haven't been a big fan of Izzo's behavior as of late, but this is a total non issue. Certain situations require a kick in the ass, certain situations require a pat on the back. Good coaches know when to apply either one. And recent whining aside, Izzo can still coach.

dwtaylor1055 Posted March 22, 2019 Report Share Posted March 22, 2019 Duke, Gonzga, UNC, Virginia are the top 4. Who is 5th? Mich St? Michigan? Tenn? Kentucky? Top 10 for sure, but 5th?

ArchieBall13 Posted March 22, 2019 Report Share Posted March 22, 2019 Iowa/Cincy intriguing match up. A lot of talent on the floor in my opinion, Iowa faded down the stretch but this team can play if they are clicking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

13th&Jackson Posted March 22, 2019 Report Share Posted March 22, 2019 Watching MSU this year, I think Henry has been asked to do things he isn’t quite ready for and has struggled at times. If he keeps his confidence, it will pay off in long run. Seeing Dane and Winston step in yesterday, I suspect they pulled him aside later and gave the “listen to what he says, don’t worry how he says it” speech that Knight’s players heard all the time. Will be interesting to see how Henry responds next game. Seems like a tough kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
