For his suspension, he will be forced to play pickup games against Bill Laimbeer, Charles Oakley and Shaquille O'Neill. One of these guys will cure him of his little tripping habit.

I'm surprised given what Coach K said last night..


Dec 22, 2016, 10:06 AM

"I handle things the way I handle them," he said. "I think I've handled this correctly, and moving forward, I will continue to handle it correctly. I don't need to satisfy what other people think I should do.

Somebody got to him, other wise we would not hear anything else about this.

sounded like the fact the kid apologized to the Elon player/team was enough for him and he wanted to move on

Allen did seem contrite after the game, but he has to learn to control himself

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

He sounded contrite the other times too, right?


Dec 22, 2016, 11:12 AM

Being sorry and contrite is reasonable for a first offense--a heat-of-the-moment mistake.

What we've seen here is simply a brat who lashes out whenever something doesn't go his way.

"Sorry" stops cutting it real quick in multiple offender situations.

absolutely


Dec 22, 2016, 11:17 AM

he does seem like a spoiled child

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

He didn't hesitate to kick Rasheed Sulaimon off the team two

seasons ago -- at a time when their depth was sorely lacking.

a regular basis....And that Allen deserved the technical assessed last night....This particular incident (IMO) is being way overblown and this indefinite suspension is a direct result of the incessant garbage issuing from the Worldwide Leader. It wasn't a Kermit Washington punch--no one was injured. It seemed to me little more than a "hard" foul which seems to be acceptable by all the talking heads in Connecticut....Make him sit for a game after the appropriate apologies last night and move on TO THE NEXT gutwrenching, tragic controversy

2024 purple level memberbadge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


Well this was the third occurrence of him tripping somebody


Dec 22, 2016, 10:35 AM

but yeah it is being a bit overblown. Would it have been better if he had knocked him to the floor while the guy was driving to the basket? Guess so.

of touch fouls called which is a big reason why both teams were in the double bonus for a lot of 2nd half. Anybody else think so?

7/4 here...

3 will be the number. Duke plays VT, BC, GT. After that its FSU and L'ville I was gonna say 1, but BC and GT are horrible so K will take credit for being tough on him for 2 add'l games.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

This is the third time he has tripped another player in two


Dec 22, 2016, 10:48 AM [ in reply to Understanding ESPN must have a new controversy on ]

years. I don't buy his fake apologies. Evidently he needs a wakeup call with a punishment that will make him take notice.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Try 3rd time since Feb 8th.

Totally agree. This dude is a baby and needs to sit a few games. I would NOT put up with his antics if I was his coach.

2024 white level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

if he was to keep tripping guys


Dec 22, 2016, 11:05 AM [ in reply to Understanding ESPN must have a new controversy on ]

someone would be hurt... and it might be him.

i agree, it's not throwing a punch, which does lead to a one game suspension

but it's not very far from it


{on a side note, i met Kermit Washington while he was an assistant coach for the NBADL team in Asheville. he came across as a really nice guy}

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

in a perfect and just world......


Dec 22, 2016, 10:50 AM

he would be forced to transfer to a death-penaltied UNC program.
