Erik Stevenson

[minidarren]

Probably should shut this thread down. Talking poorly about a kid on a team because of his actions and immaturity on the court. The kids and sponsors dont need to see this.

 

[Huskyforlife]

The best way to prevent stuff like this is winning. Hopefully the players remember.

WSU’s whole fan base is just like that. Just check Twitter.

I saw it and I wanted to back hand him like the biotch he is. Marshall should suspend him for a game. He embarrassed his team.

I was screaming meth comments at him all game, the lady in front of me told me to calm down.

I most certainly did not.

nope that’s the way Marshall and his family roll. I would be shocked if Marshall did not promote that type of character.

Khalid hit the game winner and had things thrown at him, and had racial insults thrown his way not even comparable. If Stevenson acknowledged the crowd after the game says something about him and it says something about our fan base.

Just show them this , then show them this UCONN vs Kentucky NCAA 2014 National Championship: FULL Highlights

 

[Mr. French]

Punk kid who probably spent his whole career thinking he wasn't "respected" because he was white, but in reality he's just a dick

Eeeek...not a great take.

Napier was a sniper. My lord.

 

[mauconnfan]

I didn't see that and he has done things against others which prove him to be a tool. But he also helped AG up once after decking him on a fast break he went over immediately to help him and be sure he was ok. That's something too.

Sounds like he did some stupid things after the game but wished he was on our team doing that. Kids a player and most importantly can shoot. I am sure I saw what he did I'd be unhappy though! LOL

I always thought Greg Marshall was regarded as a great coach who has a lot of respect from everyone in college basketball? I never heard a bad word about him until I read this post.

 

[CL82]

Just more proof of the greatness of today's crowd.

It was a pretty eloquent argument in favor of the XL Center wasn’t it? When it’s good, it’s good. No doubt about it.

 

[SwingDog]

I'll take the high road on this one and say that we are better than that, and also guarantee Stevenson got more than an earful when Coach Marshall found out.

 

[SwingDog]

nope that’s the way Marshall and his family roll. I would be shocked if Marshall did not promote that type of character.

Any evidence to support that? Not talking about the fan base, but Marshall himself. I've never witnessed him conducting himself in such a manner and find it hard to believe he would condone this kind of behavior from his players.

 

[LIuconn]

Just win baby and this doesn't happen

 

[QDOG5]

The refs abused UConn to the tune of 42 free throw attempts and that was the least bad take in this entire thread.

 

[UCSouth]

I can't wait until they play again, he should definitely get a forearm to the grill somewhere. Not dirty. Just physical, these things happen. Dude you play for Wichita State and you average 13.5 ppg, really? No one outside of Kansas had ever heard your name until today.

You're all riled up because an immature kid did something stupid, which is probably right in his wheelhouse, and you want one of our classy kids to stoop to his level. Makes sense to me......

 

[UCSouth]

And you know this how? Or your opinion makes it fact?

Nah. In the '06 tourney, they were in our regional in DC (along with Mason and UW). They were staying at the Grand Hyatt, which is where I used points and was staying with my son. It was a very nice group of people. If you judge any group by what "they" say on Twitter, no one in the world is nice. No more than they are on the Boneyard.

As far as the original post, once the game is over kids can do what they want and why should I care. If you're a UConn player and it bothers you, don't lose games.

 

[superjohn]

Gregg Marshall has been to 14 NCAA tournaments coaching at Winthrop and Wichita State, that's unbelievable.

 

[bazz&boujee]

wah wah wah seriously who cares

we shoulda won the game if we don’t like it

 

[AuRevoirAAC]

Who cares?

All this proves is that we have a hostile home court environment, which other teams fear. I'm sure it's the same way at Wichita State. This was the story of two great programs with passionate fan bases going at it.

This stuff is what makes the games entertaining. At the end of the day, he's just a kid having fun.
Trust me, players don't blow kisses when they win on the road at Boston College or Tulane.

 

[Caronimo]

Any fans who attended the game catch Stevenson’s postgame antics?

The guy walked to center court, waved to the crowd and blew kisses.

Out of all people, the guy who fouled out and couldn’t contribute at all in OT is the idiot who acts like that?

Our team worked their butts off and I’m glad we don’t have any scum like that on our roster.

He was basically saying we are leaving the AAC with a bad taste of Wichita in our mouths. We'll see more of this.

 

[Waquoit]

I’m sure Wichita is still bitter about that 2010 Maui Invitational loss to UConn. If they won that game they would’ve went dancing. But they lost and went to the NIT while UConn won the title.
