Mullin's Revenge about to barge in this thread like the Kool-Aid man.

Guess they shake hands before the game.

Do any other college sports have post game handshake lines ?

Where's the NCAA and Conf Commissioners when you need them ?

Lions v. Christians in Roman Empire League seldom shook hands.

Hopefully not Giants jackets.

Pretty weak and lazy approach if you ask me. I’m sure some think it’s an antiquated thing anyway.

Conspiracy time.

I wonder if this is Pitino getting out in front of potential cold post game handshakes with coaches that he's tried to poach players from. Obviously poached Kadary from Sha and rumors were kicking around all summer that he was making a run at Hopkins from PC. Could be totally off since every coach is doing it and it's the nature of the game now but it did cross my mind.

Now tell me your thoughts about drones.

Solid theory

One of their guards (who fouled out) IIRC, got into it during the game with Smith and Wilcher. I think their Center from Brooklyn also had words with someone. It might have carried over.

And then Masiello got involved

Well , I guess the days of good Sportsmanship are over. It’s too bad but, not surprising in the Society we live in today .
It’s been building for years and it’s not a good thing .
And , let’s face it , College sports are now Professional Sports .
I have no idea of what transpired to generate this decision by Pitino but , it’s sad .
What happens with other BE schools ? Do they follow suit ? Or, does Pitino just communicate with other Coaches and inform them, it’s now St John’s policy

The phrase “sportsmanship “ went out the window with the phrase “student” athlete. It’s a different world we live in.

As we lament the fall of decency and sportsmanship, maybe we should be forced to go back and re-read game threads from start to finish. We can easily find a cacophony of things spewed there that lack decency. And all coming from grown men.

While I agree we are losing basic sportsmanship, our fan behavior is assisting in its immolation.

Kranmars just moved to the word use hall of fame !! For using a word " cacophony " only used 5 other times on redmen.com/Redfans in the last 22 years. Making 114 more intelligent than our normal game time curse fest

At least Pinzon and Macon had a pleasant exchange.
