BC coach and PK after game

[Sawyer]

During postgame handshake BC coach had some words with PK. Not sure what he said but Pat looked a bit stunned when he heard it.

Yes, I saw that as well, and wondered what could have prompted the BC coach to react that way. CPK did the right thing, he just walked away without saying anything back. Perhaps someone can share what might have come out on the BC post game radio show; if they even have one. Sadly, there did not appear to be more than a few fans in attendance.

Anyone have an update on this?

I heard someone say it was about leaving our starters in all game?

Thanks. Just read that on another thread. I'm glad we did.

 

[Rollem Cards]

He’ll, we don’t have but 8 or 9 players do we?

I just figured he was salty

Unfortunately, it's February and there aren't a lot of games left on the schedule to cement your seed or improve it,outside of the ACC Tournament. It is what it is,but it wasn't like we were up 30 the whole game.
Big boy basketball.

Seems like right now Cards need to win BIG any time they have the opportunity.

BC coach is feeling the heat as his replacement at Charleston is now the coach at Louisville and is more successful in year one than he has been in several years at BC.

Kelsey only has walk ons as his "scrubs" on the bench. He isn't going to play them for 3 or 4 minutes, especially coming off a road loss after being up by 11 at halftime.

You can always tell who's a desperate coach when they complain about stuff like this.

Adding that Chucky didn't even play the final ~15mins.

my wife and i both saw his face and said what was that about and i immediately thought it was because we left our players in and honestly, i believe bc coach was probably right. if you go back and look at every big point win we've had during that 10 game run, CPK pulled the starters and when less than 90 seconds left, if anyone tried to run the offense, usually traore, antonelli would grab the ball and hold it until the shot clock ran out. even resulting in a turnover. it's a pattern that was created and used every time we had a huge lead, starters taken out and we didn't attempt any shots to run it up.

then last night, totally different story. our 2nd largest lead of the year and being up 26, instead of pulling the starters, CPK kept everyone in, minus chucky, and we we're still running full bore and jacking up 3's. that's rubbing it in your opponents face on their home floor and to me the worst display of CPK's behavior I've seen so far. which isn't saying much, but still, if bc's coach had watched game film, he would have seen CPK back off.

last night, he just kept them in, running the full fast break offense and jacking 3's for no reason. i thought it was poor sportsmanship on his part. pull the players, let the scrubs in. if they are jacking 3's it's one thing because they never get to play but the starters still jacking them up is sad and if say UK, Duke, Ole Miss, or any other team had dine that to use we'd be screaming holy hell. so, sorry, that's poor coaching and sportsmanship and shows CPK is not all happy go lucky as he seems. if i we're a bc player, i would have clothes lined someone on their 3 attempt and taken the flagrant.

Sorry, must disagree - in this case. Look, the Cards have squandered leads. They have had too many flat spots and lost focus. I believe this was a notice to his team that they must play hard all 40 minutes- period. Normally CPK does pull his guys out; so sorry for BC that did not happen this time. This team must find, and maintain the next ‘gear’ and then press down on the gas pedal. A killer instinct on the court wins games not a ‘oh sorry, let’s let up (with walk-ons or regular players) for the other team doesn’t feel bad’.

BC coach is feeling the heat at the bottom of the barrel.

Total bullshit! What a stupid rant. How you consider yourself a Cards fan is a joke. Would love to see our players confront you with your threats. I'm sure they don't consider you a Cards fan. Why in the hell would BC give a rats ass that Louisville didn't put in its walk ons?

I have never in over 30 years heard or read a Cards fan say he would attack a Cards player for playing out the game with a big lead. Unfrigging believable!

Can you believe this guy? Actually saying he would attack a Louisville player for trying to score in a blowout win. If that now does happen, it's on him.

Howard Schnellenberger used to say about teams running up the score; “ it’s our job to stop ‘em!” That’s BC’s job, too.
