JB's Postgame Presser | IUP

[RF2044]

When he mentioned Benny’s rebounding he was talking about the first couple minutes when he got pushed out of the way by a smaller kid. Overall he was complimentary about his rebounding.

I didn’t hear him say Jesse was showcasing for the nba and not playing for the team,

Yeah -- context of the comments matters. Just looking at sentence fragments in a vacuum often paints a misleading picture.

 

[Capt. Tuttle]

Bounce it off a defender.

They will be at half court.

 

[FrancoPizza]

As much as i complain about JB listening to him tonight it hit home for me how much im going to miss him. He really is brilliant and regardless of who our next coach is things will never be the same. Very few schools ever get to experience what we have. I hope this is a great year for him and the team.

Nobody would be calling for his retirement if he was having great seasons.

 

[Newhouser]

6 to 7 players? Jess, Benny, Girard, Chris Bell, Mintz, Symir, Taylor?

Copeland has to get minutes.

 

[Orangezoo]

Good presser. Not much to disagree with. Jesse wasn't good early but got better, frosh were pressing. Bell will definitely shoot it better and 3 of his misses looked on target.

Lots of good stuff on Quadir and for good reason.

 

[kcsu]

Some of the pieces will change but tonight Copeland was key and provided great energy.

The second half was predominantly Joe and Judah, Benny and Quadir and Jesse.

Listen to JB. He praised Cope more than anyone.

Yep Donna just posted an article on Copeland with some of JB's comments.

Copeland is the kind of player that is the difference maker that adds more Ws to a season. Positive, confident, capable and all over the floor. We haven't had that kind of energy on the court in it seems like forever. Bol always has it on the bench but on the court it's different. Love this kid and its been one game.

No way you have to have either one more big!

one of the two centers back up or brown

If Red gets the job, you will go to sleep, (during the presser), dreaming of when JB was at the mike.

Kind of brutal.

Maybe so, but does that really matter?

I wish there was a transcript. I could read it in 2 minutes without the nasal, hang-dog affect.

Go to the video's page on youtube, click the three dots under the video, click "show transcript." Problem solved.

Benny's a big now at 6-10.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Benny's a big now at 6-10.

Hima will play 5’ when Jesse has to sit for fouls.

JB: "You know every game you're going to get into a rhythm of 5 or 6 guys at some point in time. That's college basketball. This isn't the NBA...6 or 7 guys is what everybody plays. Nobody seems to understand that in Syracuse, but it's...the truth. You don't like the truth sometimes."

Cracked me up

Perhaps JB can explain it to the entire Syracuse community...as (the entire Syracuse community) being like 2 year olds.

Also JB: "This is the best recruiting class we’ve ever had. Period.”

Really like the comparison to Josh Pace. Might never start, but woo boy, you want him on the floor in crunch time.

Yep...Pace (as a Soph) was on the floor for most of the end of national championship game. It's not unreasonable to think Copeland will get that sort of trust if he comes through during the season.

Pfft, Pace was awesome but Quadir will play in the NBA.

I love this quote:

“That’s what I bring every day in practice. That’s just my thing,” Copeland said. “Bringing energy and just trying to change the game. I tell the guys every day, ‘No matter what, we can control our energy. Regardless of how many shots we miss, we can control our energy and we can control our emotions.’”

 

[orangemass]

I thought we were playing 9 or 10 this year? Didn’t jb just say that last week?

Too much effort, but that's me.
