[QUOTE="AE 87, post: 202580, member: 195"] Yeah, you never see one of the most successful college basketball coaches over the last several decades, rat face, yelling at the refs about calls ... oh wait, smh Of course, I guess you can argue that rat face does this for no good reason or that it's ridiculous or whatever. However, I think that the best explanation is that he's competitive and passionate and that this competitive passion shows up in his court-side demeanor. Not only does it communicate to the team that the coach is in the game but it also communicates that he's on their side when they feel that the tide has turned against them and that he hasn't given up and neither should they. Now, I don't think that that we lost because of the refs. I think we lost because we didn't play very well. I don't think we shot more poor shots (outside the flow of the offense) than we have in past games but we didn't make as many. We've had a tendency of letting teams get easy, uncontested lay-ups or dunks, but ND was able to exploit the same play almost all game for easy dunks. Nevertheless, ND didn't shoot well overall but we shot worse. Some of the disparity between how fouls were called during the last 5 minutes had an obvious effect on our players, imo, with shoulders and energy dropping etc. It's not enough for the coach to calmly complain, like cbg did. He's got to get fired up. I think our team's energy reflected his. just my opinion [/QUOTE]
