JB with some great quotes in his post game regarding conference realignment

[cliftonparksufan]

Hopefully someone can post a link. He said he will be long gone by the time this is all settled. Said "long gone" like three times. "looooooooooong gone" with a smirk and a smile. Also said that if these people were running the country back in the colonial days that Brazil and Argentina would be states. He said to ask West Virginia fans how happy they are going down to Texas to play. Then he said, well maybe they are happy, who knows. Also said that none of this makes sense. No sense at all.

Nothing beats a good JB press conference.

What was the James Southerland steal quote?

Edit: Can you talk about James’ defense and his improvement?

“Yeah, he ran into some steals, that’s unusual. He’ll try to avoid that next game.”

Classic JB. He was clearly not happy with him missing some defensive assignments.

His 'long time' quote was specific to ND joining a conference. He said something about schools leaving and joining other conferences for the next few years and then said "...and when that's all done someone will eventually get ND to join a conference. But I'll be long gone by then. LONG gone. Long gone."

I take it JB is not convinced ND will join the ACC or anyone else anytime soon. His attitude is what this board's attitude should be: Call me when it's over.

With this football season, ND bought themselves a decade of indecisiveness

Exactly right. Kinda like how the Dwight Freeney 10-2 season saved Coach P for a few more seasons.

Yeah, LOL. The commentator had a great comeback on that. One says "Well, I'm certainly glad Coach Boeheim had no comment on realignment.". And the other responds "Yeah. Those were his best lines of the night.". Or something like that. JB is clearly old school and quite miffed by all this conference shuffling.

As he should be. When your wife starts bitching about realignment, college athletics has jumped the shark.

He also mentioned (not in so many words) that the most important thing, rivalries, is the one thing that nobody seems to care about in conference realignment.

Take Brazil and Argentina and make the U.S. a world soccer power.

Texas A&M is not on West Virginia's schedule. They left the Big 12 for the SEC but Jimmy's point was made nonetheless.

I'm waiting for the silent majority (the fans) to speak out. Very little has been said about who is really getting screwed by all this rivalry killing musical chairs circus...the fans.
