Message: [QUOTE="JoeySimz, post: 1619170"] about a couple of things. Maybe I'm a homer. Believe you me, I yell at the tv just as much as any Cuse fan when the team struggles. But I believe in the program and feel lucky to have watched the team play entertaining basketball over the years. I'm not on here much so forgive me if any of this rant is redundant. 1. The Zone - what's with all the anti-zone ? I realize our defense isn't as good as it has been in the past. I've actually enjoyed reading some of the threads on here regarding the pluses/minuses of playing the zone. Some of you really know your stuff. But do m2m teams' fan bases bitch and moan to play zone when they give up easy buckets? Or when they get beat off the dribble? Do they blame the coach? When Duke loses do Duke fans want K to swith to Zone? 2. Jimmy B - what's with all the anti-Jimmy B ? I don't get fans who blame Coach for ncaa violations committed by others. It's like they buy into all that coach is the ceo crap and therefore he's accountable for a college kid smoking weed 20 years ago. Then to top it off they blame his personality/demeanor at press conferences for an unsavory national image that must have led to the investigation in the first place. Like if he was just a more congenial, friendly guy like, oh i dunno, Coach K, we wouldn't be in trouble. So he should straighten up and fly right and just take blame for everything he didn't do? And while he's at it should he hold a press conference and cry and apologize to all the dumbasses in the media, local and national, for not being nicer? It sure seems like someone in the NCAA has a personal vendetta against Jimmy B. Imo, the guy's handled it with integrity and he won't sell out just to make you feel better. [/QUOTE]
