JB and the media

[priestp]

It seems like he is slowly becoming Bob Knight.
I really noticed when he blew off Leslie Visser's second question last night.

 

[Scooch]

Yes, this is the best time to talk about this!!!

MORE!

After the way the media has treated him and his program this season, why wouldn't he?

JB was pissed. Not at her but the team. He bit his tongue with her and said everything was great, but what he wanted to do was get in the locker room ASAP to rip some new ones over that last 30 seconds. It wasn't about the media or Visser, it was about his team.

Blame the networks for those pointless, idiotic "interviews" where coaches dont say anyway...good for jimmy

This^^^^^^^^^^^^

He also mentioned it again in the post-game interview. Said we should have gone into halftime with a 10+ point lead and that hurt.

Bingo!

I laughed when he blew off Leslie Visser. Good for JB!

JB and Visser are friends. He had other things on his mind. The standard operating procedure with these stupid before/after halftime interviews has always been one question one answer. Lately everybody's trying to get more.

No, actually, it's always been 2 questions. Some guys like Jim Gray always push for the 3rd question, but that has always been the standard.

Why does every head coach deal with it but Coach K? He has his assistant do it...

 

[PoppyHart]

He was still PO'd at the presser today.

You could tell when he walked away he scratched his head at halftime in a humble respectfull motion.
I don't think he was expecting a second question or tried to walk away before it was asked.
