Is that really deserving of the title dirty? Do you buy from Nike or Amazon? Those organizations are a lot dirtier than Bruce Pearl. So you think Person was acting on his own in the bribery case and lieing to the ncaa and his other violations were nothjng. Trust me I was friends with guys on the team at USI...cars, debit cards with money...no wonder a couple years later USI got in trouble..it was the same stuff he was doing when he was there. heck he even was in trouble for recording recruits phone calls as an assistant at Iowa. He is passionate guy...loves his players and a good ball coach...but you will never convince me he isn’t dirty...I’ve seen too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They definitely overachieved this year. That said, this Texas Tech team is very, very well coached and fun to watch. They clearly look like the better team. I'm immensely enjoying this Final Four for no other reason than we came very close to having Duke, Kentucky, and Purdue in it. That would have been impossible to enjoy.

Steubenhoosier Posted April 7, 2019 Report Share Posted April 7, 2019 I will be more interested to see how Rob, Race, Hunter and Archie’s recruits react on their Senior days. Had to be mixed emotions for any kid recruited by Crean. Morgan was a warrior. Why not leave his legacy at that instead of questioning how he went out?

Person got in trouble for keeping his own cut and it was pretty small amounts. Even if it was just blatant paying players by Pearl... Why does that ever equate to being a bad guy? It isn't breaking a law, you can argue it's the right thing to do morally .. why do we say guys are bad for that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never agreed with that. If it's a foul, it's a foul! If you allow defenders to hack away just because it's the end of the game, you make it unfairly difficult for the offense to score at the end of the game. Call the fouls. I'm sick of ugly hacking Wisconsin-style defense. It's ruining the beauty of the game. ...and without question, Guy was fouled. It was a stupid foul, frankly, but even homer Charles Barkley admitted it was a foul. Again, not disagreeing with you, but why do you decide to defend the officiating in this game versus the 100 dreds of others that weren't officiated that way?

5fouls Posted April 7, 2019 Report Share Posted April 7, 2019 Texas Tech reaping big big benefits from grad transfers. Even more-so than we got from Bielfeldt a few years ago.

KoB2011 Posted April 7, 2019 Report Share Posted April 7, 2019 Last thing (maybe) on the refs. UVA had 8 fouls that they weren't trying to commit in 40 minutes. They tightly contested every shot... My guess is the Guy play got let go multiple times throughout the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s not really what I was talking about though. I know Archie think Morgan is a fantastic player. I was more commenting on the emotional aspect of the player-coach relationship. I fully realize I have absolutely no idea what their relationship is really like, just commenting on the senior night program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s true or maybe he just wanted to be all about the seniors and let them talk. Who knows. Maybe he just prefers to keep that all behind closed doors.
