Whats going on?

[BuB]

What is going on down on the court? Snell has said twice that Les and one of the Creighton asst coaches are yelling at each other. Merfield? Details please.

not Merf...another one. it started with him and AW towrd the end and was over and JL said something to the asst while walking away and then it got heated.....JL should have just walked away after the handshake instead of continuing on jawing......

Not JL's style....

[Da Coach]

Not JL's style....

I think he did what almost any coach would do if they thought an opposing coach was harassing his top player.

As he should.

JL did the right thing. You can't let an oposing coach get into it with one of your players. JL made it a point after the game to tell that assistant to mind his own business. I loved it. You can say what you want about JL and the current state of BU basketball but this team is very together and they played like it today.

what happened to prompt all of this?

[srw]

I dont think this was a big deal...something happened...

JL kept his guys back and then the assistant said some to him (not sure what) and JL took offense to it.

to his credit he shook hands with merfeld.

i will say the following.

after the coaches exchange merfeld just looked down and shook his head.

also found it interesting that AW and TB took special time to go see Merf...
Pretty strange for a coach fired at midseason

Props to JL.

"They can't do that to our pledges...only WE can do that to our pledges!"

It wasn't a big deal until this assistant got into it with Dyricus as well and then both Taylor and Drew AFTER the game and then said individual got into it with fans and had to be led into the tunnel by security...

Extremely classless but what else would you expect from Creighton!

Ok I completely disagree with this assessment.

AW and went over and explained to the coach what happened and they looked fine..

and as i said, taylor and andrew were over there talking to merfeld.

If this wasnt the case, you would have to ask what were the BU players doing over at the CU bench.

I maintain, much ado about nothing...

Nice win for all.

I don't know what vantage point you had but the guy clearly had words with multiple players and had a security guy behind him when he left the floor and he went so far as to point up at some above the tunnel when he went off the floor and went as far as to come back out of the tunnel to continue the discussion...

I wouldn't have been paying any attention to it but I saw quite a few people pointing in that direction and then saw this clown...

The coach is Steve Lutz btw in case anyone noticed...


And from what I gathered given both instances, Greg McDermott was pretty hot about what both Ashford and Lutz were doing that set off the altercation...


Oh, and asked to give a little insight on the situation after the game, Drew clearly deflected it as he didn't want to talk about what happened at all...if it was nothing, he would have said as much...and Les basically stated that it was in fact something...

I applaud Les though...not only did he stick up for his guys, but in this situation he showed a whole lot of fire I hadn't seen in some time...

Yes he did have words, but it was solved when Andrew and Taylor went over to talk to Merfeld, which you are still ignoring.

I ask again, what in the world would BU players, one of whom is hurt, be doing over at the other teams bench?

Either inciting a problem (which they absolutely were not) or talking to their old coach.

Andrew is not going to be over talking to one coach while going to war with another...

I still say solved and over.

[Braves4Life]

Andrew is not going to be over talking to one coach while going to war with another...

That makes absolutely no rational sense. Obviously, several have pointed out that this jerk of an assistant coach crossed the line. Whether or not BU players were chatting with an old friend and former coach (Merf) is irrelevant. Les did what any coach should do and, apparently, CU's head coach was not pleased with this id!ot Lutz as well.

Give it a rest, friend.

NO. I am not criticizing anyone on our side.

I say again, when andrew went over to see Merfeld lutz was there too and they talked and whatever it was...was over with..

I don't think Les did anything wrong either.

You, give it a rest, friend
