This happened a few possessions in a row and coming out of a defensive stand and going into a time out he walked over to the bench and said no more and sat the rest of the game. My speculation is that he has the attitude of "me first" vs. "how can I help the team".

Well, I guess that would explain the suspension. Hope him and Quadri get their heads on straight

Not more than Clark. That's their defense first attitude. Nothing to do with "ME" attitude. Our motto on defense is deflections right? You can't get deflections without being aggressive.

The team and program has to come first. If it doesn't, hit the road Jack. You play for the name on the front of the Jersey. You're not here to "get yours". If you're good enough that will come in the flow of the game. I don't want attitude on this team. The program has come too far since the dark days of NZ. Can't go backwards and you can't let individuals matter more than the whole.

We got best players in county because their family wanted them toughened up. No parent in country sending child somewhere with 8guys on bench. Looks like dysfunctional family. Coaches pay players, players don't pay coach. NOBODY cares about team that only makes tourny and graduate all players. This is a business. In 90's EVERY kid in America know huggins and loved him for allowing players to be themselves. TC got benched for flexin muscles!?!? Top kids in our own city don't have us in their top 5. I love Mick but he needs all the swagger he can get, already bad enough he's shortest coach in basketball.

How can anyone take you serious. The shortest coach in basketball. Really?

Haha I have no earthly idea what any of this meant either.

As far as Morman goes Im in agreement with what Mick said on his radio show tonight. The culture that has been built will be preserved no matter the cost. It's what turned the program around and it's what continues to allow us to compete at the highest level with less talent. If you think you can come in here and disrupt that you have another thing coming. Quadri and now Deshaun are learning this the hard way. Quadri appears to have responded well now we'll see about Deshaun.....

I'm glad Quadri is back. I was scared we'd lose him. I agree about the culture too. I was hard on LD before the Xavier game about his comment about needing soldiers. I do know what he means, and I don't know what is happening behind the scenes. So he may have just been frustrated with the attitude that some of the individual guys have had. Everyone wants to make the NBA now, but that's not really how it works here. It takes maturity. It's hard to see the big picture sometimes (especially during our 3 game losing streak) but I think Mick and LD have.
