And if you would admit it I imagine you do as well. He deliberately reach between his legs and grabbed him. It was dirty as can be. No amount of denying changes that fact. Some comments from the game thread that night: Or maybe not...what was XJ doing to Liddell's butt? XJ with the "reach under".. He got a technical for it. Goood officiating I think he grabbed Liddells junk from behind.....idk I didn’t remember it but I went and found the only extended highlights I could, and can see it was a double tech because of Liddell’s reaction. It was a late game foul situation where XJ drop and played through some contact at the rim, then had to foul. His other hand slapped at the ball. If that’s all we’ve got to call him a dirty player I think we are going to have a lot more dirty players than what I would characterize most guys. To each their own, I think he was frustrated and giving a foul. Surely you have a handful of other examples if we are labeling a guy a dirty player, right? One play doesn’t define any player… 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have never saw a guy slide his hands between anothers legs and grab him to commit said foul. And of course Liddell had a reaction. Any male would. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You bringing this up 14 months later is comical. You don't like XJ, we get it. Thats childs play for a "dirty" play. Having to defend Indiana players, on an Indiana board is absolutely wild. First I've heard of XJ being a dirty player, though, that's a new one. Edited March 28, 2023 by btownqb 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not justifying anything but you’re showing one freeze frame angle of one play like it proves something, and it absolutely doesn’t. It’s weird to me you’re so quick to defend Liddell as “just reacting” but not allowing that same defense for Xavier after a frustrating play. Liddell swing his arm at Xavier’s head, but totally fine in your book… I don’t really think either is a dirty player, I think it’s two competitive guys after 44 minutes of a hard fought game doing something dumb out of frustration. These guys are humans not robots. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give it a rest coach Shep, we know you don't like XJ. If you are going to do this all of next year if XJ comes back then just stop posting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously we have different standards. I get defending a guy on your team. Just curious how fast your standards change if a Purdue player did that to an IU guy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know his intent, but I’m not a mind reader with a Time Machine. I also have no clue if he grabbed a guys nuts. You couldn’t see it from the single photo you posted, did you come up with the visual for that in your head? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just dont see that that play is dirty. Its dumb, and there are no other examples. If a Purdue player did that to an IU guy, I would say that was dumb and move on. Big nothing burger and you've by no means proven XJ is dirty. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, you’re creating some weird, creepy visual that just isn’t there. Youve chosen to ignore the rest of the play and the rest of what XJ was doing at the moment of your photo, and then you’ve added that he’s grabbing a dudes nuts when we have no idea if he is, but honestly no reason to think he’s doing that. You’ve chosen to go to some really weird place about what you think XJ is doing. Yes, please be done. No one wants to hear you talking about guys touching each other’s nuts.

Seeking6 Posted March 29, 2023 Report Share Posted March 29, 2023 Let's say JG is gone too. Tons of opportunity for a kid like CJ Gunn. Hope he takes the Spring/Summer and digs in, puts some weight on and finds his way onto the court next year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
