KP Report - Wooden Legacy Tourney - Arizona 9 pm Sunday ESPN (all times Eastern)

Manning must now account for his poor leadership of the program which allows situations like the Disneyland one to fester. Manning fails these players time and again. I hope this isn’t swept under the rug. Fire him for cause.

Oh Daniel. Good Daniel.

What will you do to Cover Your Butt again?

And we played back-to-back, so on our day off to refresh our legs/rest/prepare, we go STAND in line for what 2, 3, 4 hours?

When I think get ready for the big game, our only ESPN game ALL YEAR (correct?, who cares?), and we...go goof off and wait in long lines at Disneyland, with which Assistant Coach in charge? You know YOU need to keep an eye on your Assistants already.

Well done, Daniel.

I'd be willing to bet that every team went to Disney on Saturday.
 
That's not what his parents say. He's still not moving smoothly.

OMG are you licking the boots of another set of parents just so you can run over here and crow about your sources? Stop whoring yourself.
 
This board gets it, but Manning has been given a complete pass by the media on how the disciplinary and turnover (personnel) problems have decimated this program during his tenure. The hypocrisy of what supposedly led to Dino's firing with player behavior in comparison with DM's tenure is a joke. The attention has constantly been on Wake's abysmal results and Manning's questionable acumen as a coach, but the real problems have been lack of leadership, player turnover, and character issues with the people Manning recruits.

Turnover-wise, Manning hasn't had a bad year at all. Surprise surprise, we returned everybody except Hoard, who is now on NBA roster (averaging 1.2 minutes per game, would be better off in the G-league).

The real tragedy here is that the team is in LA for a week, and they go to fucking Disneyland like they are 12. Hit up the fucking Getty Museum or any number of awesome museums in downtown LA. Fucking Disneyland. Pathetic. I understand the Lego museum is a few 100 miles away as well. Road trip!
 
Who goes to Disneyland and doesn’t purchase a fast pass?

Disney is the host. Plus, there were several parents in Anaheim who probably spent the day with their kids. A team event wasn't that likely.

However, I'd make a sizable wager that the team would have preferred the Peterson Museum (cars), Tar Pits (across the street) and Hollywood(a mile or two away) over the Getty.

All the teams went to Disneyland on Saturday. Probably organized as part of the overall tournament.
 
Childress had a terrible game. But in general, I think he has played pretty well this year, and he's averaging over 5 assists per game. The thing he has not done well this year is shoot 3s, which is occurring because he rarely takes 3s early and in the flow of the game. He takes a lot in the last few minutes of the game though, especially when we are down. His play could be so much better with some good coaching.

This post made me laugh and cry. Brandon had to witness the last 10 years of putrid coaching first hand.
 
No PG is "coached" to have about 25% of our possessions be ZERO pass events or dribble and force bad shots. No coach sets up for a PG to play PnR with a center 20+' feet from the hoop, wait to get trapped and not pass the ball to the open picker.

Danny is a terrible coach, but those things are on Brandon. I can't believe Randolph hasn't broken his son of these horrible habits.

I hear you, but who cares what they want. Give 'em some goddamn culture. You do Mickey Mouse on the host's dime and roll onto better cultural options. But we're like the Fish that Saved Pittsburgh. Stay up all night in the hotel playing fucking Nintendo. It's pathetic. You fly across country for Thanksgiving and get in trouble at Disneyland? Honestly, I think I'd rather have a player suffer a post-edible panic attack in the heart of Hollywood at 2AM than scream homophobic slurs at fucking Disneyland in broad daylight with Wake gear on. I hope Wynn and Neath aren't considering robbing a bank anytime soon. If so, I really do hope they take off their Wake gear first. Jesus.
 
And BTW, 3, 2, 1 until this becomes a momentary national story. Also not a good look for a University that still suffers from its reputation as being a stuffy, snooty, private institution that specializes in educating upper class white people, ideally boys who can handle their liquor and do fucked up off their asses really elitely (i.e., in new penny loafers and khakis).
 
Sarr looks like a completely different player this year. Amazing what a player can do if the coach can actually keep them in campus until their Junior and senior year
