Murray seems to look for confrontation

And Tyler Ulis needs to play with a little more control out there. He SHOULD NOT be staring opponents down and clinching his fists on the court.
If Coach Cal wasnt yelling so loud at him all the dang time I bet he wouldnt be so red!!!!1!
Did you start a thread after the game last night about Cal yelling too much?

A microcosm for the the kind of player Tyler is. Never backs down
Now you're calling Our Players PUNKS
Come out of the closet Whore Fan or go back to Whore Island
As I recall that was the 2nd or 3rd hard bump he had taken in the 2nd half.I thought it was going to get more testy than it did.I didn't see anything wrong with how it played out but it could have taken a different turn
Briscoe tripped Cal at the scorers table last night too. Need to nip that stuff in the bud.
This is the worst kind of poster. The one that says they are always right and it's everyone else who is wrong, doesn't know what they're talking about, everyone else just kisses ass, doesn't know anything about basketball, etc.
Yeah, you're just keeping it real. You're not a problem. It's everyone else. LOL.

ulismyman - calm down with this junk. Murray showed total contol in walking away ON HIS OWN, before Poy stepped in. We all watched it. We all saw it. Quit being a sissy. We have to play with fire and attitude. I do notice that your posts seem to be negative quite often, like your looking for stuff to complain about. Why?
And after years of watching Calyell and stomp around on the sideline you would think you would get it by now. He's not coaching a team
full of seniors here. Called motivation. Yes, you're allowed your opinion, but quite stirring the pot and trying to bait.

Plain as anything to see he was walking away already. But don't let facts get in your way, UmM.
How insightful is it to make stuff up to further your poorly thought out agenda?
Ulismyman, not sure how to read you yet.
I, along with many others are starting to get suspicious.

I agree with this. It looked like an excessively hard foul to me too. He had no chance of blocking the shot and hit him with a fairly hard body slam. I don't think it was malicious but it certainly was hard.
And last year Lyles and Towns and Hawkins all photobombed Cal during interviews. How disrespectful and immature. I don't want that kind of character representing the big blue.
I personally like the fire in Murray, Ulis, Briscoe, and others that show it; albeit less than these 3. I particularly love the way the other four teammates come in to help, showing solidarity and brotherhood. We don't hear what's said on the court between the two teams. Guarantee there is a lot of trash being talked and the hard fouls are usually the results of that. You drain a step back jumper in my eye, next time you have a break-away dunk or easy lay-up, I'm going to make you earn the points from the line. It's gamesmanship and is apart of every sport. Murray getting up like that is, IMO, his way of showing "he ain't no b*tch" and won't back down from and isn't scared of physical play. I'm sure Cal will rein it in when he feels it's getting out of control.

haha you're statement reminded me of this...
I think I'd agree with the premise that Murray seems a bit hot tempered. I'm not sure if this has always been an issue or not, but he has gone a little too far with some of what has happened. The two technicals he has received were over situations that didn't even initially involved him, but he jumped in. That first one was bogus, without a doubt. The second one was probably deserved because he was running his mouth.
But I will add this- I disagree that the foul that upset him last night was not a hard foul. It was definitely a hard foul. The guy hit him hard and Murray was airborne when the contact happened, and he was slammed to the court. So, I don't blame him for being upset.
I would also add that he did stop and show restraint, with a little help from Poythress. So, if you're looking for progress, there it is. He got fouled hard (and if you disagree it was a hard foul, I would suggest going back and watching the play at full speed) but instead of going after the guy or running his mouth, he kept his mouth shut and walked the line for his free throws. That's the only way to respond.

fair enough, but don't you ever have a positive thought about UK??
I like it. I'm fine with the fire. We need a couple more with some fire. Give Skal the same fire and he would be unstoppable.
I LOVE his attitude. He got hit hard and jumped back up fast quick and in a hurry, then walked down the endline. Didn't start a fight like he could've. Just wanted everybody to know he's not gonna take BS. I want 10 more of him.
he does seem to be easily agitated, but that particular play, although a clean play, was a pretty rough foul. i can see where his first instinct might be to get mad.
