I'm fairly confident that even some people who want GW banned from here still check his Twitter, although I'm sure they'd never admit it.

I check his Twitter frequently, but only to point and laugh at his OCD. I'll admit it.

I do think you make good points that are well reasoned, however. I just wish the Gopher Hole Gestapo were as well reasoned in their responses.

You complain about the lack of well-reasoned responses, while comparing message board posters to the Nazi secret police. We should all strive for your well-reasoned thinking. People who defend Tubby are indeed very much akin to the Gestapo.

Exactly. And to see if he is still on his crazy rant.

Haha, appreciate it. The only thing is that I can't ask him questions that way without a Twitter

Underground629- since you are his biggest fan, I'll put it this way; That is not factual, you can still ask him all the questions you want- http://latenighthoops.com/contact-us/
Good riddance GW

Defend all you want. However, that isn't really what has been done. Instead I've read comment after comment about how I shouldn't make any comments. That's pure bully and Gestapo tactics.

You've got the floor. Defend Tubby.

Nobody is telling you not to post and you are more than entitled to your opinion of Tubby. What people are pointing out is that your reasoning is extremely flawed.

I have no problem with telling me my views have flaws, but that's not what was said. Dr. (Walter) Don told me to "keep my mouth shut". Rather than tell me to keep my mouth shut, people need to make their point as to how my views are incorrect. So...be my guest, defend Tubby.
 

You guys will check his rants on Twitter but want him banned on here? Not quite understanding that one. I think you know that he has more bball knowledge and inside info than almost everyone on here and that's at least part of the reason why you check his Twitter. I know it's the cool thing around here to bash him--and I'm not saying he doesn't deserve any of it--but his stats, analyses, and inside info are worth the annoying tendencies.

Nope. Not for me at least. It is 100% to laugh at the chemical imbalance in his brain and the things it makes him say and do. I told my non-GH buddies and fellow season ticket holders about the latest Mbakwe saga at the NU game and their response re: JB was unanimous: "What an asshole. Is there something wrong with him?"
 

I can't argue with you on your reasons for checking since it's obviously impossible for me to improve, but do you disagree with my statement that he has more bball knowledge and inside info than almost everyone on here? Can you honestly tell me you don't appreciate any of that? Or his analyses before games? Recruiting tidbits?

Post game analysis was not great nor was his dull writing style. Pig headed and never wrong.

This is unreal. Oh no, Dr. Don told you to stop posting! That's what Dr. Don does. Get over it. You can't possibly be that butthurt, can you?

And you do realize that you, in fact, have done nothing to require anyone to defend Tubby. You're puffing out your chest out like you've won an argument in which you've been, probably in most people's eyes, thoroughly beaten. DPo already called you out on your horses**t argument style. You can't make a point, then lean back and demand people prove you wrong. And that's what you've repeatedly done.

So I'll do the same to you. Prove to me that Blake was a shell of himself in his senior year (without mentioning Steve Alford, a comparison so off base that I'm amazed somebody even thought it up--I like Blake, but Steve Alford is 20 times the basketball player than Blake ever was or will be). Prove to me that Damian Johnson, Lawrence Westbrook, and Al Nolen didn't improve. Prove to me that Austin Hollins hasn't improved. Prove to me that Andre Ingram, Elliott Eliason, Andre Hollins, and Joe Coleman didn't improve over the course of last season. And do it without falling back on an unsupportable claim that any improvements are natural development and have nothing to do with Tubby.

You can't prove any of those things to me because the evidence isn't there. The stats prove that these players improved. If you're of the opinion that Tubby has nothing to do with these improvements, fine. But don't get all whiny when people disagree with that opinion.

He's right - all Doc Don does is tell people to stop posting. So you must listen to him. LOL

Parski, just to set the record clear, I was not the one who originally did that. It was Go4Broke, and I used his quote, including credit to him, as a sarcasm, I even put :) to indicate such sarcasm, and now I am blamed for that. Excuuuuuuuuuse me!!! :)

This is all MADD's fault. Roads should have drunk driving lanes equipped with bumpers. ANGRY FOR PRESIDENT 2012
 



per Doogie Q&A with Teague:

Why is Trevor Mbakwe still on the men's basketball team?

Tubby (Smith) has handled that well. ... You can gauge if a kid is remorseful and if the punishment is taking place. You sit them in the chair and do that. You have to believe in your gut and I believe in my gut. I hope things work out for him.

I laugh at the so-called discipline handed down to Mbakwe in July, August and September.

You'd be surprised.

She's right. Lot riding on it. I, for one, am very anxious to hear the result.
 

Wouldn't it be nice to have a season where the primary focus is, you know, the basketball being played on the court?
 

"@AmeliaRayno: Per our source, Mbakwe's attorney is trying to work out a plea negotiation with the prosecutor. #Gophers"

Go Gophers!!
 

"@AmeliaRayno: What agreement was reached is not known yet, but there was some talks on conditions whether Mbakwe is drafted or not...."

Go Gophers!!
 

"@AmeliaRayno: Could be that income to pay court fees, etc, is argument for no jail time. Ie, need to make it to NBA to earn $. #Gophers"

Go Gophers!!
 

Remind me again how Mbakwe is still on the team?

I guess I'm still bitter he played against Purdue after violating that restraining order.
 

Amelia tweet: "Right now, Mbakwe/attorney are in small room attached to the courtroom w/ door closed. Likely trying to iron out details of plea. #Gophers"

Meanwhile, I imagine players from Michigan State and Wisconsin are in class, lifting weights or at the gym. :mad:

Go Gophers!!
 


"@AmeliaRayno: We should be getting news of a Mbakwe decision any minute now. #Gophers"

Go Gophers!!
