Izzo on Mike and Mike

[aceboon]

I get why people think he's dissing UConn, but I think it's possible to regret the way your team played while also acknowledging UConn had a lot to do with it. The two aren't mutually exclusive, and that's what he's trying to say, IMO.

I can't comment on the Mike & Mike appearance, but on this radio spot with Leba*ard, he didn't want to acknowledge UConn had something to do with his team's performance, and Leba*ard playfully called him out on it multiple times.

Great post. MSU had every chance to take that game over early in the 2nd half and didn't/couldn't. We didn't exactly play our best game either and best the team virtually every ANALyst was pumping. Every team left is tough and has stud players and matchups. Sat will be fun.

UConn shot like 37% and 5-22 on three's, we make shots we normally make and it's a total blowout. Izzo can go F himself.

I guess I've got to get the finger out of my nose. I answered the wrong post.

You really can't compare the response of a Great Eight coach with that of the lowest of forum posters. Can you?

I didn't hear the Lebetrad interview. If those quotes are accurate maybe he can be compared to the lowest of forum posters..

Wait, Boeheim admitted that MSG is our home court while his home away from home is Buffalo. Suh-weet! We all knew that was true but it's kind of cool that he took his finger out of his nose long enough to admit it.

Looks like they will have to spend more money to update all of their signage. "Buffalo's College Team"

... looks like he's having an "out-of-body" tantrum ...

Izzo is a gazelle, we are a pride of lions. Lions don't give a about how a gazelle feels about being eaten.

Thats a great point. We didnt exactly play our best game either. Giffey,DD and boat were a combined 10 for 29 and 1 for 12 on 3`s! if those guys shoot 50% its a blowout! Its all irrelevant and it sounds a bit like sour grapes. People say Izzo is so classy but he strikes me as one of those people that you know doesnt like you but still says high and asks how youre doing when they run into you. Like i said after the game and ill stand by now i had a problem with him not mentioning us or coach ollie by name in the post game. Im not in his head and of course im assuming but imho hes not so much upset that his team lost as he seems more pissed off that he lost to what he feels is an inferior team with a coach that isnt on his level. Twice btw

Boeheim and Izzo during that interview seemed to have UConn envy. They down played the job Ollie has done. Boeheim talked about how UConn had the huge home court advantage and then said Syracuse had the home court advantage in Buffalo and couldn't take advantage of it. Sour grapes.

-UConn has done more with less and Syracuse has done less with more since 2011. Coaching has to play a part in that, no matter what excuse Boeheim makes.

Thy have done less with more since 1988... hanging banners and producing nba'ers.. there is literally not one measurable accomplishment they beat us in... other than 20-0 starts vs lemoyne and cornell.
They circle j^&k to the 5 OT game ....still...and where did we end up that year???
