Very few players ever negatively talk openly about their college coach. It's just not done, regardless of how they feel. What you DO hear about is former players and people who used to be connected to programs talk candidly away from the microphones and cameras. Frankly, it's not difficult to find someone who used to be close to the program who thinks Josh is one of the worst coaches in Div I ball.

He could have simply not replied. Ever think about that?

It means Will is being kind. If I baked a cake and gave you a piece it would be kind of you tell me it was good when it was actually pretty bad.

What would it gain Will to speak poorly of Pastner? Nothing and it would make him look like an ass; which he isn't.

So, you're saying Will is a better man than you.

I think your mother dropped you on your head one too many times. That's what I think.

So, apparently that is affirmative.

What else is Will going to say? He made it.

Maybe he didn't want his younger brother to overdevelop.

You probably weren't thinking of me, but I think I'll weigh in....


Yeah, I love this. Since Will Barton says Josh can develop players it's now time for everyone, especially all those season ticket holders who are staying home, to come back because heck, all is well because Will Barton says Josh can develop players.

Hey Will, it's easier to develop when you get to shoot your arm off and hog the ball as if you were a cross between Pistol Pete & Michael Jordan. So yeah Will you had a great deal. Now Will, lets go interview Joe Jackson, Kuran Iverson, Tarik Black, Pookie Powell, Angel Garcia, Austin Nichols, and Mr. King.

Oh and we should listen to Will despite the fact that he faked an injury in the second half against St. Louis. Even Wolo called out Will for that crap. When the going got tough, Will came up with a hurt leg.

I think you'd be hard pressed to find a link to Will trashing anyone. That just doesn't seem to be who he is. And since his girlfriend and son live here, I'm guessing he's here quite a bit. I would expect him to maintain a good relationship with his former coach under any circumstances but particularly under those. Besides, I think he's probably got a lot in common with Pastner.

When you get together with Pastner do you pitch or catch?
