Pretty interesting stuff in there...

Apparently AD Ron Guenther had an interesting night... embarrassing himself on press row.

Here is an bit from the column:


"If only he left it at pounding. Alas, he did not. Guenther would on occasion rise and stare down an official, or rise and give coach Bruce Weber advice, generally something along the lines of, "Get Randle out of there!" And after one miserable play by Warren Carter -- which isn't nearly specific enough considering his vast array of miserable plays -- Guenther pounded the table, rose from his chair and screamed, "Warren -- you idiot!"

Screamed it, people. "

Personally, I do not think the AD of a program...has any business yelling or calling any of the players' names. Especially when he is the guy that signed off on Jamar Smith sitting courtside after he almost killed a teammate...

But why Carter? He has been one of their better players all season...and that ain't saying much...

He should act somewhat civilized at games.

To borrow a line from Jim Boeheim......"Without Warren Carter, the Illini don't win 10 fucking games this year."

I hung out with Guenther's nephew last weekend. I'll have to ask him about this. Sounds pretty classless.

Illini...

Could you let me know what he says?

Maybe Doyel was exaggerating the situation...
