Let's see I started my initial post with:

and JR agrees with that, but still flips out.

Then I made the point that the problem is the assigning of an official to see the same team three times in nine days. The dates were March 1, 8, and 9 (and would have been 10 if Nevada had reached the final). JR agrees with that too. Yet he takes some shot at me for writing that.

Well look in the mirror, JR, because you just agreed with my two points. So I guess you are sad too.

Nevada, you intimated that Gracey was part of the problem. Gracey was not part of the problem. The head coach of Nevada, Fox, was the whole problem. No one else. There is absolutely NO excuse for his behavior imo.

Obviously, in your opinion, there is an excuse.

We disagree.

I did no such thing. YOU inferred that from my post. YOUR mistake.

Now just to be crystal clear, I'm saying that the problem is having the same two people have to deal with each other in pressure situations, multiple times, in a short period of time. Confrontations are bound to happen under those circumstances because people sometimes let their emotions get the better of them. That is wrong, and I'm sure that Fox will be punished for it. Of course, the WAC conference needs to understand what it could have done better.
