Message: [QUOTE="OttoMets, post: 3237097, member: 716"] OK, this one stood out: Hughes has the ball in an unsettled situation, he's already scored a transition layup but this time he pulls up and passes to Buddy on the wing. Shaky decision. Buddy then a) is indecisive about taking the three, b) travels without a whistle, and c) throws the ball out of bounds about 10 feet away from Girard on the opposite wing. Wasted opportunity for points (I believe this was followed by three points for Notre Dame) and a chance to get Hughes untracked, but it was also noteworthy as another "oh boy, the coach is an unhinged old man" moment, because instead of coaching Buddy on his mistake he went berserk at Girard, the proverbial first baseman who had no hope of reeling in a Knoblauch throw. That can't play well with the locker room or in recruiting. [/QUOTE]
