Regarding the rope comment: “If you guys play this way against Louisville, they’re going to take y’all outside with some nooses,” Hatchell said, according to the person, who was told of the remark by people who were present." But Hatchell's lawyer has a different wording: "Smith said the coach had used different words when warning about the coming Louisville game. “She said words like: ‘They’re going to hang us out to dry. They’re going to take a rope and hang us out to dry,’” the lawyer said. " The NY Times does not go into the playing through injuries charges. [/QUOTE]
