Take last night for example...he got fouled on layup and jumps up like he wants to rumble??? That was not a particularly hard foul...not sure where the frustration comes from. HE has been T'D up twice already. Needs to show a little more control out there
Murray seems to look for confrontation

Maybe it comes from his training in Kung Fu, which had him fighting every day.
I'm not sure I agree that it wasn't a particularly hard foul. The thump that I heard once he hit the floor tells me a different story. I do think he needs to learn to control himself a bit more though.
If he was really looking for confrontation he wouldnt of jumped up then immediately turned and walked away.
Dude, put the keyboard away for a while. Just stop. You're being really critical of our players. I know on your 19" magnavox it looked like a little bump but these guys are moving fast and when you look at the replay you will see why Murray went flying to the floor. Illinois State's plan was to play physical, well they took it too far sometimes and if I was Murray I might have jumped up like that too. You need to remember what's at stake for this kid. If he gets injured 7 games in he's screwed.
As far as the technical fouls, I believe one if them was the one where he was trying to help his teammate up and tge ref T'd him up. Cal told the ref "if you're lying you're done". Murray said he didn't say anything. I believe him.

I like the fire. I'll take the hot head over a wilting flower any time.
And that was a hard foul. From my vantage point it seemed like it was about as hard of a foul that could be given without being considered dirty.

Jumping up angry, but then walking away to the free throw line IS showing control.
And there's nothing wrong with a little bit of a mean streak in a player. Loved that about Cousins.
And as a side note on the technicals, I believe one of those was entirely bogus and Cal wasn't too happy about it.
I read your message and your name was below the bottom of my screen, so I couldn't tell who wrote it. I thought to myself, "that sounds exactly like something Ulismyman would write."
Nailed it!
Why don't you save up all of your negativity and put it in one thread after each game. Would save everyone a lot of time.
Skal needs some of Murrays fight. I see nothing wrong with it.
He was already walking away when Poythress "headed him off." YOU watch the game.
I like it, it shows swag, it shows attitude, it shows fight, it shows intestinal fortitude. When a player like Murray strive to be the best they do what's needed to show they won't be backed down, if that means punking out an opponent then in all for it. I'm amazed people have a problem with Murray yet accepted D Cousins, looked both their fight.
Heck maybe Murray should meet with the football team and show then what it is like to play with fight and not back down when an opponent comes at you. OP sorry but you're way way way off base here

I like it. You complain about lack of a mean streak then complain about a mean streak. Come on we need to play angry! Within the rules of course.
I don't agree with many of OP's posts.
That being said, he's not too far off base here. I like Murray's fire and his fight, but he does seem to be a little more reactionary that I would have expected or would like. As long as he keeps that intensity channeled it's a good thing, but there have been times I'm watching and thinking "okay Jamal ... cool it a little."

If you have the game recorded you should really watch it again. He did jump up but then turned to walk towards the bench with Poy trailing him. If I could make a gif of it I totally would.
I am passionate about the Cats and i like to come on here and talk about the games but i don't like punk behavior in our players i will leave that to the guys on Eastern Parkway. We have had 2 instances in 7 games where our guy was at fault. POY AND Lee starting crap and some techs....just need to get that under control
Stop trolling. We get it. Seriously, you've become the most annoying and worst poster on this board, whether you're a UK fan or not. Poythress started crap?
alright alright, yes Lee did chuck a guy but to be honest that's the only tech that was actually instigated by a UK player. The others were either bs or instigated by an opposing player.

First it was Cal yelling too much. Now it's Murray being confrontational. You're looking for negativity. Searching hard. Curmudgeon.
Most Canadiens after being fouled hard would immediately go over and apologize.
Murray walked away on his own. He didn't need anyone to "hold him back". Nothing to see here.
Funny,you never seem to have anything positive to say.
If I was that unhappy about every little thing,I'd find a new team or new hobby
