Article about Coach K lecturing Oregon's Dillon Brooks after game

Featured Replies

It happens all of the time. All of the time. This was just caught on camera and audio for the world to see. I guess it's a good thing there aren't anyone recording many high school games these days.

 

I can't speak for high school games, but I think it is bad form there too. I sat Courtside at college games for years and can count on one hand the number of times I saw a non-positive interaction between a coach and a rival player during the line. Everyone is so emotional at that time, most just get through the line and move on.

Eliminate the post game handshake. I'm telling you.

So if Dillon Brooks takes Coach K's words to heart and shows better "respect for the game" on the court then Coach K is still a lying, scandalous coach who lacks integrity?

No , he was a lying, scandalous , sanctimonious coach long before this semi scandal. Actually the word that best accurately describes him is narcissist .

That qualifies as a lecture nowadays. Duly noted.

 

If a coach said that to my kid after the game in the handshake line after my kid did something that could be perceived as unsportsmanlike then I'd tell my kid their coach was right. If you're going to do something that many perceive is unsportsmanlike then be prepared for the old school folks to let you know about it.

 

Hell, you'd think Coach K had grabbed the kid and threw him up against the wall and scolded him for an hour the way this is being played out.

 

I get it, Coach K lied in the press conference about it and for some of you all that is a huge issue. For others Coach K is a sore loser who comes off as a jerk for telling a kid he's better than that.

 

Duly noted. :lol2: :lol2:

This young man's coach told him to take the shot. Tired legs, end of game, good practice for next NCAA game. Coach k is a sore loser, always has been. Now we can also add liar to his resume. He did not come clean until the audio was released. Would have let the player take the heat for the lying. Real great guy!

He's earned the right to be coy and not tell the media what he doesn't want them to know. Like we really care about whether or not Dillon Brooks is made out to be a liar. :lol2:

Are you really being serious or just trying for a reaction? How can you get "coy" from a flat out lie? Why would you make such a statement about the player? P.S. his players trip people and no response from him. Once is accident, twice is possibly heat of the game, third time is disgusting.

I have no issues with a HoF Coach caring enough to not ignore a teachable moment. Young man showed no class in throwing up the last second bomb. Game over, time to show class and respect for game and opponents. Dribble it out and not pad stats. Simply what Coach K was trying to tell the young man, he's too great a player to be a look at me type when the game is won.

 

Coach K's comments afterwards were an attempt to not put the young man's actions in the spotlight. Unfortunately, the young man showed poor judgement again and chose to do just that. No respect for the game or opponents. The entitlement generation on display.

 

HIS COACH TOLD HIM TO TAKE THE SHOT.

Only Duke haters care about the audio. Duke fans knew what he said and why he said it. Normally when a team concedes the winning team isn't supposed to keep shooting and then celebrate after taking the shot that didn't need to be taken.

 

The same way folks say that Coach K needs to own what he says goes for Duke haters concerned about this non story being sensationalized by the media. Just say you hate Duke because of Christian Laettner. That's what it is anyways. Especially for you folks who I know HATE when teams run the score up.

 

I dislike Duke because Laettner should have been OUT of that game, period. It would have set better if coach k admitted the lie, instead of having it forced out of him after we all heard the audio.

We know the bolded to be true because ... umm ... Coach K said so. Ok...I get it.

 

And the Emperor's not wearing any clothes either.

 

And the Emperor is wearing egg on his face.

This was admitting he lied and smeared a young man? Now we know where Grayson Allen got the technique for tripping, his coach tripped over the truth.

Then why do people keep saying he needs to coach his own players and that he has no right to say whatever he wants to opposing players? That's what I am responding to.

 

A college basketball coach tells a lie????? STOP THE PRESSES!!!!!!! :lol2: :lol2:

 

How is is he a hypocrite? Lost me there.

 

Definition- a person who exhibits a pretense of virtuous character. No one cares about the initial interaction, we know he's full of himself, but he lied about the young person. Why do you not see that, but for proof of the audio, he disparaged this young man's character?

7 times the team they were playing conceded the game and they were just standing around waiting for the clock to hit zeroes and Duke shot the ball to avoid a shot clock violation and celebrated wildly at mid court? After they hit a 3 and talked smack to the opposing team's bench earlier in the game? They did that 7 times this season? Damn, I guess he is a hypocrite. Damn you, Coach K!!!!! :lol2: :lol2:

 

What lineup was on the court for those 7 incidents?

 

Who were they playing?

 

What was the score?

 

Did the other team concede the game or were they still playing defense?

 

Obfuscate, obfuscate and obfuscate.

So those coaches believe Coach K would have had an issue with Pitino if Pitino had told Grayson he's too good of a player to act like that on the court?

 

Those dirty, lying coaches are telling whopper lies in press conferences??? Who knew?!?!?!?:lol2:

 

Obfuscate.
