I thought long-time posters might enjoy this tweet and the attached video of Coach McCrybaby:
Bo Smolka is a Bucknell grad and former Bucknell SID. In recent years, he has been a sportswriter in Baltimore/Washington and an author.

Try turning off the mute feature (bottom right when you hover over screen).

I can’t stand McCrybaby but it seems like he was mad at the officiating (shocker) and was trying not to say anything about the officiating while making the point that he hated the officiating. I don’t think his intent was to mistreat or belittle the media like Coach K with the student but I could be seeing it wrong. He’s still a crybaby.

He was definitely sticking it to the last questioner. Calling his question a “brilliant observation” was dripping with sarcasm and hostility. I watched that game with Illinois and he was screaming at a ref barely 5 seconds after the opening tip. He’s a raving douche bag.

Why take questions from the press if you're not going to answer them? He is such a jackass

Would you change your mind if it was jackass supreme, Rick Pitino? Just askin'. Trying to find how low the bar is set for you!

I watched part of the game, Grandisone is getting some time on the court and is playing well...

I might even stop watching HC games until he was gone. As a major HC Fan, that is hard t o say, but I would have to draw a line somewhere. There are not many people in this world whose ethics I think less of than Pitino.

I wouldn’t want either one but I’d rather have Pitino than McCrybaby.

That choice to me is a bit like asking whether I would prefer being impaled or beheaded. It is not a serious choice, since we are speaking about a college that would not even consider a return by RW.

Ok, I'll be juvenile to get me going on this Monday morning. Curly Howard of the Three Stooges, when asked by a villain if he would prefer to have head chopped off or be burned at the stake, chose being burned alive. When asked why, he replied "a hot steak is better than a cold chop, nyuck, nyuck, nyuck". And now, back to the grownups. .

Frantic Fran going nuts at his team as Penn State leads his Iowa, late in the first half. Includes the refs now and gets a T. 41-36 at the half

Michigan went up 3 at the end of the first half with a tip at the buzzer then dominated the second half. Dickinson outplayed Garza and forced him into 6-19 shooting. It was a very chippy and physical game with bodies hitting the floor regularly, including one of McCaffery’s sons and Nunge (who was on crutches at the end of the game). The refs weren’t the difference in this one. Michigan’s versatile offense and tough D in the second half were.

Another factor was Iowa’s porous defense, which has been a nemesis for years under McCaffery.

Given the restrictions on fans this year, wonder how many LED tv screens the missus has broken this season.

Classic Crossports thread
Here we sit, invisible, living and dying for a team that, as has been suggested on the Board, isn't playing this weekend because "one the teams didn't feel like it."
Yet, let's start a thread where we feel holy and pure (still invisible) and mock a coach and team ranked 5th in the country.
We will eliminate the coronavirus. I'm not so sure about the Brooksvirus.

Then don't read the thread. What were you expecting, a beatdown on Father Brooks, deserved or not.

No, I expected some appreciation of McCaffrey's amazing success in the toughest top to bottom league in the country.
