He was claiming that
whatever was said that drew the technical came from behind the bench, not from him or an assistant.
How
Do you guys watch this brand of basketball? This isn’t basketball. This is flopping around, falling down, and phantom technical fouls.

It's OK.
I get mad when my team’s looking terrible, too. I just refrain from going to the opponent’s blog to blame them for it.

they were hitting those shots when they played weak schools....
didn’t like those shots then even when they were going in…. and its really hurting in the long run.
I think something snapped in him the last game
once he has missed more than four shots, something made him go crazy and he became utterly determined to take as many awful shots as he could over the rest of the game.
Brust essentially won Iowa the game by putting together an AWFUL shooting performance.

It should be called "Drive inside at home and get to the line for 3-point plays"
not “take as many ill-advised/stupid/insanely dumb threes as possible over the course of the game, then have to come back in the 2nd half because none of them worked”.

Just wanted to come over and say that
Jordan Taylor made a believer of me tonight. I always thought he was good, great at times, but was never completely sold. Now I am. What a player. Absolutely deserving of the preseason all american status.
Otherwise I thought that was a really enjoyable game to watch. Cant wait for the replay in East Lansing this February. Best of luck ’til then.
Go Green!
