Was recorded this morning and is available on the team's Facebook page. Will replay on the @979espn tonight at 6. Lou joined for the second half of the show.
Not much new. Geno and Bob talked about Sunday's game of course. Here are the main points from that part of the discussion.
Geno said the game took a turn for bizarre in the 4th qtr. Up until then the game was pretty normal intensity.
There's stuff that happens in a game, emotions get out of control. Kids/coaches say and do things they wish they hadn't.
It was unfortunate that the game went in that direction. There were a couple of things that happened in the game that were flat-out blatant. It's not part of the game and, knock on wood, none of my players has ever done that and 99% of the players we played against haven't done that. Emotion is part of the game but that stuff isn't.
We don't have the kind of team that is so emotionally charged that something like that could incite us to retaliate. That's not who we are, that's not what we do. There has been teams I've had where things would have gotten physical and out of hand maybe. But we don't have that kind of team. I like the way they responded. They responded on the scoreboard; they responded by making plays. To me that's the best way to respond.
There were some issues that happened after the game with Lou and during interviews. We haven't even talked about that. It could have been you lose your composure. We handled everything that came our way and that's a great sign for us in early Dec.
Thank u, next.
