After the Arkansas game, my son DM'ed Anthony Black (as kids do these days) calling him out for his behavior in the game. Black responded to him, saying that basketball can be an emotional game, and admitted that he had some growing up to do. I was angry at him like everyone else watching that game, but I have a lot of respect for him to respond to criticism like that. I have also watched a few of their games since then, and he is really talented and actually a lot of fun to watch. His vision and passing really is special, and I hope we don't have to play Arkansas again unless it is deep in the tournament. They are playing really well now.

LIKE????—-DALE BROWN- can someone pls remind me what he did that offended Vandy fans. I was at a game circa 1991. Think it was Shaqs 1st game @ VU. Recall Dale getting into with a cameraman in parking garage post game. Assume there are other incidents( But tell me you havr watched the SEC documentary on Shaq @ LSU & not teared up a bit. The part re both Dale & Shaq growing up w/o dads was poignant)

LOATHE (but was so bad he was comical) KEVIN O’Neil (UT circa 2000)

see my post re: JVBK and Collis Temple. ^^

He was gracious as long as they were winning. I think coach Eddie Fogler said that on a coaches show once...
