Worst part about tonight....

[Mime-Is-Money]

Cal's blow-by handshake. He has to suck it up and give credit where it's due. He got his *** handed to him tonight and should appreciate that from an up and coming coach with strong ties to the program.

Very unlike Cal there, and it stung.

 

[MarkPftw]

Well, Walter helped beat him in the Final 4 and now tonight. He kinda owns Coach Cal.

 

[David Rice]

Yeah, I criticize Crean and Pitino doing it and I sure don't like Cal doing it.

he was ticked off as he should be the game was a mortal embarrassment

I didn’t notice this at the time. Does anyone have video?

Yes, I wanted Cal to kiss his feet. Exactly what I was expecting [eyeroll]

Give the "young" coach some congratulatory words, reiterate that what he did tonight was special for his team. That's all.

You blind ? It was obvious and made Cal look like a SORE LOSER!

McCarty is a Pitino clone,so if Cal brushed him back on a handshake,besides getting embarrassed on the court,it was kinda like losing to Pitino indirectly.

He gave Walter nothing but props in the post game interviews. That doesn't work for you?

Actually does help a little. Still, was hoping for a little humility in the moment.

Sure, coach can be mad. I'm hoping he his mad. But you still need to be gracious in defeat. During the presser, he was. Not so much during the handshake.

Worst part to me. Is if cal dont wake up. We wont have a great next 10 years. Its time to get back to wanting it. Not just enjoying what you have. Imo

 

[katwest]

I don't blame Cal for the semi blow-by, I would have wanted to get off the floor as soon as possible too.

 

[crxohio]

Cal and mccarty are friends. Dont get it twisted. Cal gave him oppurtunity. Cause he believes in him. Also knew they test us. !!!!!

He wouldn't look him in the eye. McCarty leaned in and he pretty much looked away and got it over with ASAP. I commented on it last night right when it happened as my take was also that Cal didn't handle it well at all that a Pitino guy beat him in Rupp just hours after he was given the # 1 ranking and that Walter being a Pitino guy absolutely was going through Cal's mind.

 

[crxohio]

This is not a horrible thing. Im tired of weak schedules. Time to go win or get beat.

Thats how I saw it, too. But.. thats not really a blow by handshake. Way different than the Anderson type handshakes where he would be practically in the lockerroom before his hand broke free of Cal's.

Could he have maybe talked woth him more? Sure. But Cal just toom on his worst loss in 10 years, at home, as a #1 team.. I think you're allowed to do the bare minimum in the handshake line, so long as its still courteous.

the worst part is now Duke will be #1
