Message: [QUOTE="boontonbomber, post: 4119620, member: 384"] To be very clear: my gripe with him is the post-game public criticism, that sometimes is pretty harsh. Again, I see no point in doing that. That others may do it doesn't make it right. In fact, when other coaches have thrown their players "under the bus" in postgames ,the Boneyard has been quick to point it out. And rightfully so. I've asked in the past, and I'm asking again, why should Geno be exempt. I really think, and some may think I'm being dramatic, that it is a betrayal of players for coaches to roast them in public. And to be really dramatic, it may be a bit of bullying. Certainly coaches have to be tough with their players at times. No one is saying that they should be coddled. But there is a time and a place. For example, I expect that he spent face-to-face time with Paige regarding her play against SC in the 2nd half. So what on earth IS THE POINT of airing it out in his postgame? I don't have a problem with different coaches having different styles. In the end, though, you would hope that they all would show respect for their players. I just don't think pointed public criticism shows that respect. JMHO. [/QUOTE]
