He was fine.

He said Coach Young has great players, which makes it easier to be a great coach. Then he said, “it’s the same for me - I have a great team because I have great players.”

It wasn’t shade. He was complementary of the BYU players.

It was a really heart-breaking loss for a team with high expectations. Let’s not be petty.

Wisconsin Coach deserves no respect

Mar 23, 7:40am

To me the dirtiest play was #25 sliding under Mag on that layup. Mag fell hard but #25 clearly knew what he was doing

At what point of the game was this? I want to go watch the replay

HurrahforIsrael

Mar 23, 7:43am

It was in the first half. I dont remember the time stamp but it was the one where he got a dump off

P-Boy Squad

Mar 23, 7:44am

Yeah, they called the foul but it was clear he was trying to take Mag's feet out from under him. That could be extremely

IIRC the foul was on someone else - he completely got away with it

Mar 23, 8:40am

Yep, that play is when I knew #25 was dirty. Made me mad as Mag was shaken up for a bit.

But he still knocked down the FTs

That’s what really ticked me off. The top view really showed how bad he undercut

I just went back and looked. On the telecast the announcers said it was on Crowl. But according to the ESPN app

Any common foul can be upgraded to flagrant on review, can’t it?

Sounds like the foul was called on a different player though.

Exactly. And the Fous strip-hack-punch in the nose the ref was staring right at!

Yeah, I saw the same thing happen in another game too. Pathetic if it’s taught.

I think he was trying to give credit to the players. Agreed on coaching flops and grabbing like Ute DBs

It really should be all about the opponents players

Zoobieman

Mar 23, 7:57am

Not all good, he clearly coaches all his players to play trash basketball

Ten_Hour_Drives

True. Immediately after saying KY was a good coach because he

Threw and Through

Mar 23, 12:46pm

Didn't he say something like "great players, and great coach makes great players

Xenon

Mar 23, 7:49am

no. he said that great players make a great coach. he gave ky zero credit.

Fightgar

Mar 23, 8:17am

He also said that is why he is considered a good coach. People are reading too

Stucoug83

Mar 23, 8:39am

Right. He’sa good coach because of his players

Fightgar

Mar 25, 7:22pm

Nothing wrong at all with his comments post game. You are trying to

JoeExotic

Mar 23, 7:52am

You know what is clearly there? A coach who teaches his players to play trashy

Ten_Hour_Drives

They play just fine. Some fans love to be outraged about nothing.

His post game comments were fine. . .

Zoobieman

Mar 23, 7:56am

Not out of context in the slightest

Mar 23, 8:14am

You are 100% blowing it out of proportion

JoeExotic

Mar 23, 8:31am

It’s not. But to shift from complimenting the coach who beat you to the players who beat you lets him side-step any

mvtoro

Mar 23, 10:59am

You really really want to be offended

JoeExotic

Mar 23, 11:15am

🤷‍♂️ I’m not offended at all. I don’t think KY should be offended either. Like I said, it’s not a knock on KY.

mvtoro

Mar 23, 11:36am

He didn't mean it as a dig. You're way overreacting

MaximusMeridius

Mar 23, 8:37am

Comments like this make BYU fans look dumb.

shakarocks

Mar 23, 4:52pm

wrong. he said that him and ky are great coaches BECAUSE they have great players

Fightgar

Mar 23, 8:19am

It was more about praising the players in this game than it was slighting KY

firstandten

Mar 23, 9:54am

Our issue is they gave him a chance to be magnanimous toward KY and he wouldn’t.

Cosmos-beard-card

Mar 23, 11:26am

And we care because. . . . Why???

Question: “…coaching job you’ve seen from KY in his 1st yr w/ the program?”

What so many who post crap like this fail to understand is that there is the exact same YOU on the other team’s board

Mar 23, 8:51am

So, because he takes the question, makes it about the players on both sides and says the exact same thing about himself

Sorry but this is pathetic. We won. We're going to the sweet 16. And we get all

MaximusMeridius

Mar 23, 8:56am

That is a highly biased take…he didn’t intend any ill will.

Cthack1

Mar 23, 9:02am

Maybe just dirty game tactics and not dirty comments

Mar 23, 9:05am

Agree. Saying Mag is improved is a statement on KY.

Why be a hater? We won. You’re looking to be offended.

I don't really care about his comments but his team plays pathetic ball.
