Going to be very interesting to see how this team plays without him today. Hopefully his comments really fired them up

 

[ford82]

After what he said on Saturday, if it isn't a brake or tear he should play.

 

[Fishy]

Are you duck*ing kidding me?

What the hell else is gonna wrong this season?

I seriously expect that half the team will miss the Syracuse game with scurvy.

 

[husky99]

Black cloud....

 

[jfuchs91]

In a must win game, this is worst case scenario. Looks like Lamb and Boatright might need to play close to 40 minutes tonight.

Is Maalik Wayns playing tonight? He was out at Notre Dame.

 

[Kitaman]

Oh well, fittingly for this season. I haven't seen this much drama in our team ever. Time to rally the troops and get this done.

Dom tweeted a couple minutes ago the Wayns is a long shot for tonight

I got a feelng its his mouth, not his foot.

Indeed - maybe it's from putting his foot in his mouth after the Marquette game...

 

[champs99and04]

Here come the variety of "foot in mouth" jokes...

Just saw this on the news. Can't believe it! Also, the interview from Saturday was shown, and as usual, some quotes taken out from much larger quotes! Does not change what was said, but maybe how some of it sounds.
On another note: I HAVE A SMALL PENIS!

Super.....the odds that Blaney now has wolf and brendan allen on the floor with the game on the line has greatly increased.

 

[jfuchs91]

In 2008, we learned at the last second that we'd be without two of our better players in Jerome Dyson and Doug Wiggins while playing at #5 Indiana. Our team played their hearts out that game and pulled off the huge upset which catapulted them on an eventual 10 game winning streak.

This game is against a depleted, underwhelming Villanova team, but let's hope it can have the same effect. It just seems that we can't get ANY continuity this season.

Bazz out sets the stage for a wonderful psychological case study. Sleepy guys wake up in a big F-U to Napier or team completely disintegrates with no one taking charge.

 

[Mattydog]

Should be very interesting.

 

[sledog]

Play BA. At least he charges the hoop.

 

[Giddyup5]

This is not good...we need Bazz regardless of whatever some of you think of him.

Napier hates losing. And of course he is not a perfect player, but I never doubt his desire. He is also a 19-20 year old who made an emotional statement after another tough game. Listen to how many totally stupid comments are made off the cuff by highly scripted 45-70 year old candidates for the highest office in the USA and then cut the kid a lot of slack. I hope his comments help to light a fire to the extent that the fire wasn't already there. And yeah, this has been a tough season. seemingly even tougher after the surprise of last year.

 

[ford82]

His comments would be more meaningful, if he himself demonstrated his heart and desire to win by playing through injury.
