Cobb Suspended

[JMick]

You ever consider a different hobby?

you've become one of the biggest apologists on the board. you don't carry much weight here.

 

[FartMan69]

you are one insufferable arse

How does it feel to be a fan of the man killing UConn basketball instead of an actual UConn fan?

 

[BLUEDOGHOUSE]

explain losing 4 guys this past offseason

Lets chew the fat. Get to the bottom of all this.

Do you want to meet for a beer? We can invite 0904, upstater, Walker11, Big Red, Mau, Mckracken, Stairmaster, Fishy/ Chief and Fluedslipcon. You name um we invite um! On Me!!!!!!!

We can hash all this out off the record!

Deal or No Deal?

LOL--now I've heard it all. People bragging about how much weight they carry. ON THE BONEYARD! Talk about delusions of grandeur! I wish I was you, with your top secret inside information and sources... of college sports. Which you can share on a message board!

You have cred.

Support the team. Don't take joy when a college player tells a coach to off.

Calhoun loved his Father Flanagan role.

Doesn’t always work. A great story on Caron Butler ... begat Nate Miles.

Nate Miles was a really nice kid from the worst kind of background you could imagine (actually you couldn’t imagine it). If you want to see exhibit A on the educational and Child Welfare systems failing kids, see Nate Miles. That he gets portrayed as some sort of bad egg that was beyond help is ignorant. You can suggest that maybe he didn’t belong in college, but don’t confuse the end result with what type of kid he was or how Hathaway threw him under the bus

That's essentially a compliment.

 

[CTBasketball]

maybe Cobb deserved it. I don't know. But it wouldn't be the first time Ollie and a player got into a confrontation that completely soured the relationship.

Jackson and Ollie got into at ECU last year.

 

[Huskybass]

Wasn't this supposed to be KO's team of "right kind of guys"?

It was, but now that's next year. It's like the "Free Beer Tomorrow" sign. The carrot is always out in front.

yeah you're up there too.

You admitted to me that u have no inside info. U sound like a 28 y/o lonely man with a laptop n no life.

 

[Whtdmd]

sad for Cobb. He had some offensive skills but never got it together on defense. I remember the Stony Brook big man score 3 straight time on him and DO cme to the rescue

u pretend to work for a university nd can't write a coherent sentence

You know what would be fun? A locked room with Hathaway, Emmert and all the angry boneyarders. It would get forking medieval in there!

 

[Huskybass]

Some here wont believe it unless it's certified by god himself.

Confirmed. Certified. Get me proof.

 

[Fishy]

Am I missing something?

Did Cobb kill someone?

Or was he just suspended for one of those vague team rules kinda things?

He mighta kicked over a waste paper basket at halftime or something.

 

[Whtdmd]

Dude I work my arse off. If u ever type on a mex board via IPHONE u would know what I mean. I actually feel sorry for u in some way. How a 28 y/o man/boy spend the whole weekend day/night in front of a desktop typing BS is just pathological

Well he never got it going on offense either. He just did whatever he wanted out there. I enjoyed it at first but the switch never turned on for him unfortunately.

It probably feels OK to be a fan of a guy who is universally respected as a leader, mentor, and champion inside and outside of basketball. The idea that the reputation he accumulated through two+ decades in high level basketball has all been a fraud is pretty ridiculous. I'd wager that he's likely developed some emotional problems that have compromised his ability to run the program and compelled him to act out-of-character. I'm not sure there are many people at this point who don't see the problems and it's obvious that he won't be the coach here if things continue that way.

But just remember, this isn't just a head coach who won a title and played 12 years in the NBA, he's also a guy who played for four years here under Calhoun and got his degree. The active rooting against him and need to accelerate his demise from people on this board is sad and this is a terrible take if you were being serious.

Drop men’s basketball

Hey @Waquoit look at all those likes!

 

[Fishy]

As I reported after the WSU game, KO and Cobb had words. Cobb doesn’t accept authority and can disrespect it.

That’s it?

If that’s what it takes to draw a suspension at UConn, I have to ask why there aren’t a lot more suspensions...

 

[RichZ]

It was obvious on the court that he had no interest in playing down low, he'd dribble the ball upcourt as though he was a guard, hoist 3s.

To be fair, he does have the 2nd highest 3 point percentage on the team.<G>

The iPhone doesn't change tenses and leave out words and make singular things plaural. Just saying.

This whole debacle just keeps getting better. Now the Columbia and Monmouth overtime wins seem like the good ole days.
