The last week in Morgantown = trouble

Fran’s illegitimate son? I think he and CMac could be the new Step Brothers Brennan and Dale.
He hadn't been T'd up before in that game if that is what you are saying. Two Technicals and you are disqualified and he played a few minutes more before getting foul #5.
That gesture on its own probably doesn't get him T'd up but I'm guessing there were lots of other things that happened throughout the game and it sounds like he could have a bit of a reputation
Yes, he has a reputation and he was pushing the line every time he got whistled for any thing that entire game. I'm sure the refs had enough of him and were more than happy to have something that would justify T'ing him up.
Chris Spatola kept saying that: he has a reputation. Meaning that contributed to him getting t'd up.
He's not wrong.Chris Spatola kept saying that: he has a reputation. Meaning that contributed to him getting t'd up.
However I think Spatola is one of the worst announcers as far as latching on to something and repeating it over and over again. Not like Dukie V and his catch phrases but some insight he makes in a game and then he feels like he needs to bring it up again and again throughout the game.
Not a fan.
Spatola is both good and bad borderline irritating at times. I like ex-Poke Bryndon Manzer for his knowledgeable, objective, low-key (me) commentary.

Sounds like a classic example of play stupid games, win stupid prizes. If Huggins is threatening kicking him off the team you know it’s bad.
He knows he's near the end of coaching most likely, so why put up with it?
Watching coach Huggins on the bench Saturday here in Manhattan, he didn't look well. A lot of the tactical coaching was left to his lead assistant. He seldom left the stool even to get after the refs in his customary way.
Now in the HOF, I would not be surprised to see him hang it up. There is little else to accomplish in his illustrious career. He's not winning a national championship this late at that school.

He was on Huggs staff for the Final 4 in Cincy and WV. Been with him a long time.
Big12 reffing this year hasn't been horrible but watching TCU UT last night, they're letting a lot of post shot celebrations slide this year. Imagine NIL changes that a bit.
But also saw 4-5 arm clears on drives that didn't get called.
One super egregious carry, but even those are pretty loose.

Appreciate the visual evidence here Surly. Solid stuff.Chris Spatola kept saying that: he has a reputation. Meaning that contributed to him getting t'd up.
