Beginning to come around to the thought that the "angry white guy" routine is not a good look.

Nothing new here since he got here. He is what he is. Huggy Bear school. A very hard out when they play hard, but never much of a tactical battle for teams to worry about.
I think I read on Loyalty postgame thread where they were all debating the team culture and someone said that UW had a required anger management class at some point?

We are an extremely young team and we went from being one of the oldest to one of the youngest.  A ton of potential talent from this squad but all I know is that we probably wouldn't win 14 games if not for doing well in the transfer portal and getting shannon and meyer.  Need these seniors to carry us to say the least. 

It is what it is and you can clearly see it on the floor.  January will be very telling, thankfully under BU we typically have improved throughout the year and don't have to worry about January John syndrome where we play well early non conference and regress over the next 20 games.  I do not think we will win the big ten but will finish a little over 500 in conference play which should be enough to get us to dance this year.

Got the gist on Mike [Matt] Mayer situation. He has had some issues with chronic back problems flaring up. Says this has plagued him throughout his career. Anyway, the body language and grimacing earlier was perhaps back pain? 

He and Brad Uberwood have disagreed on how to approach it. BU seems to think some of it is mental. Maybe a bit old school, tough it out? MM has been dieting and fasting and thinks that is why he is doing better.

Another one, fwig, before the game, some reporter asked Hawkins about Brad yelling. Keep in mind Hawkins personality. He is like a fun loving kid, likes to joke around. He quipped that the team just tunes him out.

Piper took that and MM post game antics to infer there must be some deep internal division. This is not the first time Piper tried to stir up poop.
 ...

Not sure about BU and anger management classes. I know the AD did tell him to tone down the act, looks bad in front of the camera.

BU's offense and defense are different, but his sideline demeanor, regular season success, and post season mediocrity reminds me of a former PU HC.

..

Hawkins has worse contact avoidance than Mike Davis. He is also afraid to shoot, and will make a bad pass instead.

Is that why he hasn’t done any more Austin Powers movies?

Just busting your balls.
"He commented more than once that, 'You know, Hitler did some good things, too,'" Kelly recalled to The Times. Kelly said he would usually quash the conversation by saying "nothing (Hitler) did, you could argue, was good," but that Trump would occasionally bring up the topic again.

Hahahaha Jones fumbles on end around. That guy sucks. I said as much the day he was drafted. Put that one in the loss column for Poles. SMH.

The guy never had the profile of an NFL receiver (production wise). One decent year in six means you suck. Regardless of the “traits.”

Apparently Goode tweeting that the team needs to grow a pair.

When does Jimmy Chitwood return?

Guess we are not going to fire UW then?
And our whole team does not suck?
