What, exactly, did he say? He didn't get in anyone's face, didn't hang on the rim...

Also, somebody's got to emerge at a viable, consistent second scoring option. (I'm looking at Barton and J-Rich.) McRae has 26, which is great, but no one else was in double digits. (Maymon had 9.)

I would have gotten a technical as a coach, and it would have been ironic because I would have told the ref it was chicken ****! Just a joke because he did not show up anyone. Stokes should be the next option and he played timid.

My question is why Cuonzo didn't defend his player after that horrible call. Is Martin that much of a corpse? Him not backing his players is ridiculous.

The announcers, dumb and dumber if I might add, got confirmation that it was profanity that caused the technical, not his celebration.

It's a tough situation. We were up one. If he gets a technical, then it's 4 shots and the ball. You think you get criticized for that? But yes I would have gotten as close to the line as possible. Make him call one.

Sometimes a coach getting riled up gets the team fired up.There was plenty of time left in the game.

The team takes on the personality of the coach- Eor on Qualudes
I would much rather watch Pearl lose.

No, it should not be tough at all. You either stand up for your players or you don't. It was a ridiculous call and warranted Cuonzo defending his player.

If you are wanting a consistent scoring option then someone needs to take Richardson's minutes.

I understand, but when the coach gets teed up or even ejected, and they get 6 shots, our fans would be all over him. I am a fiery person and would have been upset. But our fans act like they knew exactly what to do. Anything he does some of our fans will not like. It is a no win situation, and for anyone to say otherwise is not telling the truth.

You can't scream profanity in college basketball and not expect to get a T. Cunzo probably wanted confirmation on what was said, and he left it at that. Cunzo backs his guys, his problem is he's a horrible offensive mind coach and teacher. I'm the biggest critic of Stokes you will ever see, but hes a prime example of another waste of talent here due to poor coaching.

I hate to say this because I really like him and want him to succeed. But, he is just not a good game coach.

He just has the profile to be a top assistant coach. He's a great life coach, and he loves basketball, but he's stubborn. He refuses to run zones of defense, and our offense looks like a middle school coach designed it. Stokes has not improved much, and our offense is lethargic. We were down 9 with 3 mins to go and our offense acted like they had the 9 point lead. Stokes made post moves as if he thought people were going to just let him score or something. Maymon caused a run at the end of the guy by trying to lay up the ball like a girl instead of dunk it. All these things are a sign of a coach that just doesn't instill great instruction on offense. There's just no passion on offense like there is on defense, and we have no way to answer runs unless McRae bails us out. Our post are embarrassing, and we aren't a fun team to watch right now.

Not sure if he did or said anything other than celebrating his dunk by yelling. Didn't look like to me that he got in anyone's one face or anything of the sort. Maybe he cursed, hence the reason for the T.

I think a lot of people was wondering the same thing. Martin did not even have enough balls to question the ref but there is a lot of things that Martin does that leaves one wondering.

Cuonzo has said repeatedly that he doesn't believe that getting on the officials accomplishes anything.

Well most of the most successful coaches "work" the refs. Most of the time this does not include pleasantries. Cuonzo seems to sit back and accept the screwing he often receives.
