So what was said about Joe?

Parrish likes him as a person, but Joe's not known to be overly friendly or welcoming. Apparently it was hard for the new guys to break the ice with him. Martin told the story about Joe and Will Barton getting into before the St.Louis game because Joe told the team thatTarik should have gotten some award instead of Barton. ( I thought he said "MVP" but that wouldn't make sense unless Will was saying Joe shouldn't have won it.) Anyway, it got heated enough that Pastner made them apologize to the whole team just before we took the court.

HOLY CRAP! This finally came out! Wow. So, now a lot of folks here can start to understand what happened over the last 4 years.

So Joe didn't really have two feet in? Was Josh lying ?

Martin said Joe had an overly high opinion of himself and either Parrish or Martin said that he didn't take coaching/correction well and that by the last half of last season Joe was a "lost cause" from a coaching perspective.

Joe played pretty well at the end of last season. Perhaps Pastner should stop coaching everybody.

Some people need to realize that if you are 6-8 you can't really commit any crimes in person...

Why this isn't obvious is beyond me?

That reminds me of David Harris back in the 80s. Dude snatched a ladies purse. He was easy to figure out since he was the only near 7 footer roaming around Frayser.

If I recall correctly, he pulled a disappearing act during that final stretch where we lost to Cincy, Houston, UConn, Virginia, etc... He didn't do much in the Louisville game, either. The other 3 guards won that game for us.
