Mitchell blames Burdick for Technicals

I have it, might want to take it off now before you get some unwanted email. I'll shoot something to ya.

^ Agreed. The "3 bad calls" that supposedly went Tennessee's way just aren't there. That's Convoluted's biased opinion. And I've yet to find documented evidence that Coach Warlick agrees with Convoluted that the "right call" was calling a technical on Burdick. My interpretation is that CW thought the technical was a "good call" to finally clean up Kentucky's rough, provoking play.

Holly did tell Lisa Mattingly "that's the right call" twice when Lisa told her what she was calling. It was a brief exchange since Lisa just went to explain the call and Holly had little to say. Meanwhile, all Mitchell wanted to do was whine to the refs.

When JJ got the double T, Holly was pissed at her -- maybe because she had just come into the game to replace Cierra. Mitchell was still just mad at the refs.

I certainly don't remember any "3 calls" -- and I was there in person. I've rewatched the game several times, but I can rewatch again. I will say this, there was a lot more talking and physical play going on than what got caught on camera. You also couldn't see the UK staffer walking to nearly halfcourt trying to get signals or read lips from the UT huddle during every timeout.
 
Conn,it's only conjecture when you don't see what happens and are guessing about it.What is on tape does not lie.The foul on Harrison was a push with no intent to play the ball which makes it intentional,and should have been called that way. As previously stated,just because Holly said that's the right call doesn't make it so. As for your assertion that immediately prior to Walker's thuggish actions three bad calls in a row went against Kentucky,that is not accurate either.The tape doesn't spare anything that happens.Your greatest coach attribution has been and should be met with derision.
Regarding the three bad calls, here they are. Just saying I'm not accurate doesn't fly. You have the tape, take a look:
At 10:52 remaining in the game, a rebound went out of bounds off Graves. Ball was given to TN. They even replayed the play. Even Graves was surprised.
At 10:28 Thompson was called for a charge. Graves was clearly not in position until after Thompson was in the air. It was not a charge.
At 10:03 Bishop made a clean steal from Izzy. Refs called it a foul. Those three errors probably cost KY the game.

That's the three bad calls in a row and there was another questionable out of bounds call at 9:55 when the ball never went out of bounds but it was called out of bounds off Goss.

Would you care to explain why you feel Geno is not the greatest coach.
 
I think Kentucky lost the game through coaching at the end. Bad calls both way that I think most all can agree on. Maybe, I'm wrong, I don't know. JMO. When, or if, Geno passes the pinnacle of all things that Pat has set forth, then he could be considered as the greatest coach. I don't think he's there yet. JMO, again. He will have a number of years yet to coach that Pat was denied via her health condition. So, he may yet reach the Summitt.

well I see that you got all of 11 posts,,,so I welcome you to this Board,most posters are great people.ME? well I just poke a smile here and there,yup I do love UCONN,,and also am a great fan of CPS.But GENO is the god of UCONN


WELCOME:peace2::hi:

An excellent example of quality vs quantity. Thanks for the welcome. I agree, most posters are great people.
 
CPS paved the way for Geno Convoluted and others that will follow,i don't think anybody is saying he is a bad coach,but you are on a Lady Vols forum,just looking to stir stuff up,do you really expect anything else ?

I know you probably couldn't give a greasy string pulled out of a cats ass,as to won the SEC Championship game,but you keep posting about it,I do have to say,that i have agreed with some things that you have said,to be honest and some I don't.which is all right

I think you just like to bring Geno up to stir some feathers,which is ok,but don't act like you are surprised about the response :)

Those were three proper calls. You are just making a weak argument for what you wished were called in each situation. Your judgment is bitter and biased. And they probably did not cost Kentucky the game. However, Walker's brutal shove in the back could have cost Harrison a season-ending injury.

We did get by with one call toward the end of the game. Burdick went over the back big time like she was leaping into a mosh pit and they didn't call it. She went to the floor with the ball and UK tied her up. Possession went to UK so it didn't end up effecting the outcome. If there had been a jump ball later it could have had an effect. I said before it wasn't the calls they made that were so bad, it was all the calls they didn't make that was the problem and lead to the trouble at the end. Tempers were high because we were getting tired of being mugged and no foul being called.

i think your right about that Orange Manic,the refs should of had control of the game all the way threw,not letting them get away with rough stuff in the first half and then try to clamp it down in the 2nd half

He did that during the game here as well. I only noticed when I heard somebody in front of me pointing it out to his wife. After that, I watched at every timeout, and sure enough, the guy would go as far as he was allowed every time. He even stood on his tiptoes and craned his neck to try to see what was going on in our huddle. I don't know if there's anything wrong with it, but it sure looks slimy, which fits in with Mitchell's style.
 
Convo, how the hell can 3 calls favoring Tn at the 10+ minute mark negate a 59-54 ky lead with ball possession at the 5 minute mark?

jeez, yer dum!

Nevermind the location, just noticed the SC location. Fire ants are the devil. I encountered them when I live in Texas south of Dallas. I still have the little scars.

I haven't been bitten by a fire ant,since I was in Bama years ago

Gov, you do have a way with words that generates quite a mental picture. What's the least you will take for that greasy string? It really should be 2 pieces of string tied together - one from a Husky and one from a Bluetick Coonhound. You can do the tying. We can mount it on a marble base and present it as a trophy to the winner of the next Tennessee uconn game, if that ever happens.

I agree Pat was a women's basketball pioneer that will always be remembered. You probably remember when girls were not thought to be capable of anything more strenuous than putting on makeup. Thankfully, those days are gone and Pat helped to eradicate that thinking.

I’m not trying to put her down, just making a point. It upsets LV fans if Pat is not treated with the utmost respect, (not that thinking another coach is superior is being disrespectful), but many feel it is perfectly okay to say the vilest things about other coaches. Scumbag, cheat, comments on hair product usage, accusations of things that are untrue. All comments indicating character flaws. Some even make inappropriate comments about their own coach, wide load comes to mind.

I know some of the things I’ve written were likely to generate an adverse reaction toward me. Even things I’ve said that were an attempt at humor were not well received. I try to limit my comments to things I feel are just wrong. I don’t think I criticize the posters, just what they say. Yes, I expect to be challenged.

Having once worked near Knoxville, I’m familiar with the local culture. I did have to get out though. Too many different states surrounding Tennessee. If they ever decide to attack, your gooses will be cooked.

I’ll sign off now and grab me a Dr. Enuf or if the nasty posts continue, a George Dickel.

Pat coached 38 years. Geno has coached 29 years including this one. He's got 9 years to go to catch up with Pat's longevity.

I doubt if Geno will ever reach the Summitt. I don't think he has the $10 monthly fee (or whatever it is) to join. :)

Okay, okay, I'll admit my comments about Samarie and Izzy were not those of a reasonable person. Walker shouldn't have done it and the refs should have called it. I was trying to make a point. Too often on this forum I've seen those types of comments made by LV fans. When a game thread includes a third of the posts lambasting the officials for being unfair to TN without mentioning a similar number of bad calls helping the Lady Vols, something is wrong with the discussion.

A good example of what goes on here is my 3 bad calls examples. Putbacks, you did what I did with the Walker situation. You just dismissed my claim about all three examples. Did you truly think all were good calls?

Unless a large majority of posts on this forum are fair and honest, I don't think it will succeed. Everyone doesn't have to agree but at least we should be objective.
 
do you really think i would be treated any differently on a Huskies site Convoluted? I know that you are just here to have fun,which is ok

you have heard a lot about one sided officiating and why not ? it is happening and if this was a team that you rooted for,you would think the same way,I do have to say that the overall officiating has really sucked,since the start of this year,I just don't get the need to make new rules,why not just enforce the ones that are there ? instead of officials taking over the game ?

don't you agree with that ? and why would i want to see 2 dogs cocklocked for you to have a hot dog trophy ? :)
