Going to be a great 16 hours.

He'll just have to come back next year then.

Off the bench to spell Cole?

Buddy was 100% wrong. But my first question to the ACC is why didn’t the Duke kid get suspended earlier this year that threw a punch and may as well ask them how many times they suspended Grayson Allen.

 

[Cuse_NYC]

since its duke...suspension % skyrockets

but i dont think he should be suspended, personally

problem is...how else do they punish him now?

Guess a lot has to do with if Wilkes really “pushed him two times” earlier. Dunno if Jim means on that same play or something before that.

What do you want him to say? “Yes suspend him”.

 

[tee1222]

Too soon?

 

[Syracuslove]

Wonder if he would be saying the same thing if anyone else on the team did this (barring one select other, you can guess who).

 

[MSOrange]

I'll just assume JB hasn't seen the video. Otherwise this is insane even by his standards

 

[Chip]

Not doing his son any favors.

He's a kid that's never done anything wrong, had a moment of frustration, wishes he reacted differently.

That might be the best way out of this.

Denying what everyone can see with their own eyes...isn't.

I’ve been on JB a lot for Daddy ball. But his statement is what any coach would say in this situation

 

[Jake]

It’s precedent setting if they don’t suspend him. Not sure there’s a way around it. Half game? Probably unlikely.

Horrible way for a career to end…

The Boeheims all need to take George Costanza's advice on going out on a high note.

Is there tape on the Duke punch? Be curious on the differences.

 

[upperdeck]

guys hit each other all the time with elbows and no calls..

 

[4evaOrange]

I mean that really got out of hand

Before we played the game they went over the ground rules, no touching of the hair or face.

So no harm, no foul.

Think half games are only self imposed

 

[NineOneSeven]

I was hoping they would have reviewed this mid game. I was expecting a flagrant 1, actually.

 

[kidorange]

Feel like if this was January he gets suspended.

But man, ACCT, ACC leading scorer, JB vs K for the last time, Brooklyn.

I gotta think the ACC wants him to play

ACC wants a clear path for the Chosen One to go out gloriously

 

[Dave]

Buddy stabbed a guy with a trident, he’s gonna have to lay low for the next game.

Yeah! I saw that!

 

[upperdeck]

what is the rule had they tossed him out.. would he have been suspended then as well?

It was JB's recollection of the play.

He hadn't seen any replays yet.

 

[PauliePeppas]

What do you want him to say? “Yes suspend him”.

Dont blatantly lie to everyone , a simple “i have to look at it more” would suffice.

 

[kingtidge]

Well, at least he didn't blame Frank for it... (yet)

Thank you
