And I'm not sure it's the kind of pissed off that's gonna help us.
 
is the press conference online somewhere?

It's on the NCAA's Final Four web site.

Go to video's, then scroll down to click on pressers.

It's a long one, 24 minutes.

No offense, but you're off base on this one. That was a spectacular JB press conference. He was calm. Decisive and directed in his comments, but calm. He has a legit beef with the people who reported his statements about the APR out of context. I think he came across very well and I think people understood his point. I think it's nuts too.
 
He is pissed... Post game interview he only wanted one question but the guy forced a second one down his throat and he almost snapped... He is sick of the media..

And isn't everybody?
 
I loved it - he's tells it like it is and goes after clowns in the media who print stories that are full of BS along with idiots who pop off at the mouth without telling the whole story. Add to the fact that the media created an instant mythology about this game that Asheville got screwed by the refs - they did not - they simply lost.
 
Go get em Jimmy :) The part I don't get is Su/Fla/Uconn are mentioned by this Mutt but not UK.

I thought JB handled that well. He was obviously not happy with the APR USA Today article. Rightly so.

I thought he did a very good job explaining his feelings about a couple of parts of the APR requirements that don't make a lot of sense to him. Out of context seems to be one of the great failings of many media news reports. One of the hazards of being a public figure.

Maybe I missed it. What did UK do?

I thought he did a great job: both of fielding the "poor little UNC Asheville" questions and explaining his disagreement with portions of the APR. Based on his explanation, how does Kentucky which sends multiple players to the NBA every year stay above the line?
Frankly, I was relieved by some of his comments on the game. I honestly feel we'll be better next game.
 
I will give credit to him. He was calm and professional. He addressed an issue that he was treated unfairly on. I cannot stand when he gets surly. He was good in this one. I also loved his "scoreboard" comment. To which Kris replied "Retweet!"

Just like at halftime. The sideline reporter asked him a question, he answered and started walking away. The reporter asked the 2nd question, he was already five feet away, turned back gave a quick answer and continued walking away. Oh boy, is he sick of the freaking media.

I'll tell you, we are the new UNLV. I've had people calling us a dirty program on Facebook recently - and these are my supposed friends !!
 
except we are not UNLV ... the haters want us to be like UNLV
