    I don't know what thread this fits on, but SI's Luke Winn is a great writer....and this is a great article recapping the Arizona game. The coaching job that Chris Mack did in that game in all respects put Sean Miller to shame. I believe the word Schooled comes to mind.

    Freaking loved it! Mick is such a winey loser. I don’t get how the media falls for it so often. Nice to see many in the media call him on this one.

    Also, with Mack being a local he "gets" the Shootout more than any previous coach. He also saw the ridiculousness that occurred with the 2011 narrative and wasn’t going to have any of it this time.

    What Donny Marshall said on FS1 about what his coaches would have done as opposed to what Cronin did was great.

    Paul Douchebaggerty once again showed us what a biased hack he is as a sports writer. He not only equated JP and the little YTG in the post-game dustup (Question: who tried to get physical? and who has the greater responsibility to be the adult and role model between the two of them?), but he also blamed Mack for not letting JP be available in the post-game press session. Mack is absolutely right on this. The conversation in the post-game press conference should be about the game rather than allowing that little ass-clown of a coach deflect the conversation towards a confrontation for which he was largely the instigator. PD would like this to not be about the game apparently and so, as he always does, shows that he is still a tHuggs jock-sniffer.

    Letting JP speak to the press would have been as stupid as sending Tu out there after the fight.
