MBB G23 Final: Louisiana 86, Georgia Southern 103

[Tripple Threat]

“In the 25 years I've coached, this is the worst team I've coached defensively."

Did he say that tonight? So he's pulling a Hud and blaming the players? If that is the case, then they've quit playing for him. If it isn't the case, then he's quit on the team. I hate hearing a coach blame the players...his recruits, his coaching. Maybe he needs to take a break from coaching and step away for a little while. You don't say the 2 days before playing on National TV against Georgia State. They will embarrass us on Friday.

[CajunEXPRESS]

Those are very accurate words. But again he’s softening it by saying they’re trying hard, just not doing it right.

If he hadn’t lost them yet, he has now.

I broke my own rule, leaving with 11 minutes left in the game. Just couldn't take it anymore. Forget about defense, we can't shoot. What happened to this team?

[ULvictory]

But you just can’t excuse this performance. “Injuries,” “we won 27 games last year,” etc. is not justified at this point.

The schtick is getting old. We have lost three straight conference games by an average score of 20 points. That’s bad.

The players had no emotion when singing the fight song. Most of them just stood there

[CajunEXPRESS]

No don't tell me we do fight songs on loses. That's insane.

That "free" $12.50 popcorn though

[ManAboutTown]

Someone ask Mike if rebounders club can spring for a couple new players? If they can’t buy us a new coach, we’ll need a bag man and some NBA talent...

[ULvictory]

Well yeah, that’s his first comment win or lose. He’s wanting us to know how incredibly hard it is to be us. Especially with our great gym. They’re so jealous.

"Every time we play a conference game or any game, these teams come in and know that we are the standard. We have won more games than any team in the league over the last five years. We have the nicest gym. And we are the defending champions. And we are going to get everybody's best shot. And we got theirs tonight. I've seen their games, and it was the best game they've played tonight."

[Tripple Threat]

No don't tell me we do fight songs on loses. That's insane.

Definitely shouldn't be singing after a loss..that's salt in the wound

[Tripple Threat]

"...and it was the best game they've played tonight."

Against the worst defensive team I've coached in 25 years.
