Hinson
My alumnus's basketball team is a headline story today. It led off on Doug Gottlieb's nationally syndicated afternoon drive sports show and was Jim Rome's take of the day
As Rome said, someone must have done something terrible or something epic if he is talking about Southern Illinois University.
And epic it was- here is Coach Hinson's epic rant.
Don't have time or can't stream the video, here are the highlights of his postgame speech via ESPN.
The Salukis were outrebounded handily by Murray State, prompting another colorful response by Hinson on Tuesday night: "I've been telling my wife this for years: Size doesn't matter."
Hinson also ripped the team's forwards for going 2-for-11.
"My wife -- my wife! -- can score more than two buckets on 11 shots because I know my wife will at least shot fake one time. But those guys aren't listening. They're uncoachable right now.''
Hinson also said if he were allowed to force it, the team would have practiced late Tuesday.
He then was even more direct about the way the players have competed recently.
"To me, when you've got a young team, it's a lot like house-training a puppy dog," Hinson said. "You know what, when the dog does something wrong, 'bad dog.' I'm not going to hit 'em. I'm not going to swat 'em, but bad dog, get on the treadmill."
Hinson today has not apologized, nor with the exception of mentioning one college player by name (something he did apologize for) is there really anything he is guilty of but being too passionately frustrated. He did say his wfie didn't like the comment that she could have shot 2 for 11. She said she could have went 4 for 11 and got to the free throw line. Hey-Oh!
