McDermott and Technicals

**isucyfan** · 11-27-2007, 08:38 AM

Trying to remember...does anyone know if Coach Mac got any technicals last year? I don't, and that would have been the year to get frustrated enough to get one!

It would be a cool CyBookie event to predict how many techs he gets this year, but I realize that would tie up credits until the end of the season, so maybe not.

Couldn't find one in any of last years box scores..

Only technical foul I could find was a North Dakota State player.

Thanks for checking. That was my intuition about last year. I would've thought he would have taken one at some point just to fire the team up.

I think that whole "fire up the team technical" is overrated. Most times the coach gets kicked out he just doesn't want to watch the carnage anymore.

I think sometimes it works at home, because the crowd goes bonkers and that can sometimes translate to team intensity.

Your point made me realize that Mac is a patient man, as I would have got a couple of techs last year after MT's 13th of the game, just so I could relax in the locker room.

Personally, I would've been completely ok (if not pleased) if he got one on this day...

Mostly for this one...had he completed the follow-through.

I do remember the crowd going NUTS in response to G-Mac getting on the zebra for the horrible calls/no-calls under the basket that game.

Those pics are classic. Refresh my memory...what game were those from??

ISU-Nebraska last year.

The sad thing is we may NEVER see a better exit than LE vs. MSU. The notorious double foul. What a way to go.

I remember that being when Hubalek just stood there and got a foul called on him against Maric, correct?

I thought it was embarrassing, but different strokes for different folks I guess.

Now, I can totally see why that is embarrassing. Back then, I was just as ****** or even more ****** after the call as well so LE was doing exactly what I woulda done.
