Cuonzo Martin press conference 3/28 2:30pm

[Tenacious D]

I liked his opening statement.

 

[trevols81]

Press conference probably didn't win him any new fans amongst the body-paint crowd, but I thought he did extremely well.

Agreed.

 

[jtflew]

You have to imagine that he is pretty tired. Back and forth plane flights the last day or 2 and busy talking to the players and setting up the basketball program. I can't blame him for looking a little run down at the moment. Liked his comment about being here for the duration.

Short, to the point, and believe that we can win nationalt titles here, and that's the goal. What's not to like? Oh...he was monotone.

 

[Volstylexx]

pretty much what was expected. if Tobias and Scotty stay, and he keeps Ware and Jones and pulls a big man, we wont be too bad next year.

Tobias is 100% gone. Hopson will be back. One recruit will stay, one will go..

 

[OrangeVol79]

Apparently Tobias isn't at press conference because he's working out for NBA Draft...... doesn't sound promising that he'll return.

What does one have to do with the other?
He could be working out for NBA and still return!
If i was going to test the NBA waters I would be practicing my jump shot too!

 

[trevols81]

I agree...

Quiet please.

 

[tigervol9802]

I personally liked it while at the same time and terrified of him. He's an imposing dude.

 

[LawVol13]

Tobias is 100% gone. Hopson will be back. One recruit will stay, one will go..

Thanks for clearing that up for the rest of us.

glad you got it all figured out.

 

[zjcvols]

He seemed tired, but you can tell there is a LOT of energy in him. I'm excited

He's been on three plane rides in 48 hours, met with his old team to say goodbye, met with his new team to say hi, not too mention he brought his two kids with him. He's probably drained.

 

[BIG ADAM SMITH]

if it is based on their draft projection, then they should both be coming back. neither one is ready for the NBA. they both need another year. both made too many mistakes and Hopson is scared to be a playmaker sometimes.

 

[trevols81]

Tobias is 100% gone. Hopson will be back. One recruit will stay, one will go..

You have all the answers, eh?

 

[hohenfelsvol]

From what I head Tobias was gone with or without BP.

That voice is booming. Imagine him yelling.

Definitely a straight laced person.

Did you expect him to say he was only coming for 3 years? Kiffin said the same thing. Only time will tell.

I sense your sarcasm -

But those who (seriously) took issue with this "monotone" voice, please tell me that you believe Mike Tyson to be a sissy.

Said he's gotten about 6 hours sleep in the last 3 days.

 

[trevols81]

No techs in 3 years at Mo. State so he at least yells at the right people, the players.

 

[TooLegit2Quit]

I actually feel pretty good about our chances with Jones, Ware, Hopson, and Harris. Very good to hear he's already talked with all of them.

 

[tripper]

Runs about 15 set plays on offense with an emphasis on not turning the ball over.

 

[Volstylexx]

You make everyone dumber by continuing to post here.

Can't you come up with something new to say?

From what I head Tobias was gone with or without BP.

I guess this guy with 30,000 posts need to quit posting here as well... since he just said Tobias was gone too.

Such a tough guy you are :loco:

 

[tigervol9802]

That voice is booming. Imagine him yelling.

No. I would pee on myself.

 

[zjcvols]

Or the refs are too scared of him.

Imagine him saying to some 5'8/150 lb ref "That was not a foul."
