He said the loss was on him. And that he was selfish and that he was yelling back at cal. Said he wanted to be taken out. WTF?

I watched that back and forth unfold. It was brutal from Cal, but Jakob did just get roasted couple of times. He should have sucked it up and played harder.He said the loss was on him. And that he was selfish and that he was yelling back at cal. Said he wanted to be taken out. WTF?
Do you know around which part of the game it was?I watched that back and forth unfold. It was brutal from Cal, but Jakob did just get roasted couple of times. He should have sucked it up and played harder.
Toppin ended up under the rim. Lack of situational awareness, which isn’t new for him.Maybe when the dude missed a wide open layup…Jacob assumed he’d make it and just watched . Another vandy player got the rebound and made the second attempt at it. Jacob could’ve easily corralled it had he not assumed a make
More Eric Bledsoe.Need guys who are either from or can play like they are from the "muck". Sick of these analytical thinkers. Get me some MF'ers who rip your arm off if you think you are getting a ball and want to talk **** after they kick your ass. Not apologize for not giving a crap about the game or being too in their own head to compete.
Toppin has no instincts combined with a lack of natural competitiveness and here we are.Need guys who are either from or can play like they are from the "muck". Sick of these analytical thinkers.

Not wanting to "offend" anyone, I'll just say you can tell he's the baby of the family. Coddled. Naturally gifted but....something is just missing. It's there for him to get if he committed to it, but hard to get that lock it in focus as you leave college. Especially when Pro Front Offices/Coaches will give him a simple assignment and if he can't do it, they don't give 2 ****s about his "mental state" or "confidence". It's do this or GTFOH.Toppin has no instincts combined with a lack of natural competitiveness and here we are.
He does seem to look around during the game for someone to tell him he done good.Not wanting to "offend" anyone, I'll just say you can tell he's the baby of the family. Coddled.

He wouldn’t take shit from anyone. I thought Bledsoe was going to kill Tony Delks nephew when he played for Louisville.More Eric Bledsoe.
Cal even told Delk you got the wrong one. That was like 20 seconds into the game.He wouldn’t take shit from anyone. I thought Bledsoe was going to kill Tony Delks nephew when he played for Louisville.
Yeah. Not everyone. See the thread I made in March 2022 about how the current roster was going to have more issues than last years. And see the many people who agreed with that take.And I know the reply is, “ well, Cal put the team together”. Everyone thought this was a top 5 roster when the season began.
I still don’t understand how losing Grady and Ty has equated to this much suck.And I know the reply is, “ well, Cal put the team together”. Everyone thought this was a top 5 roster when the season began.
I went back to check. Cal literally said, "He'll kick your ass after the game. You got the wrong guy". And it was 8 seconds into the game.Cal even told Delk you got the wrong one. That was like 20 seconds into the game.
I was at that game and I thought Rupp was going to explode before the game. I remember Cal saying after the game you don’t want to mess with Bledsoe.Cal even told Delk you got the wrong one. That was like 20 seconds into the game.
Most of us thought Toppin was going to take this big leap, he’s been the biggest disappointmentI still don’t understand how losing Grady and Ty has equated to this much suck.
As it turned out those 2 points were a pretty big dealMaybe when the dude missed a wide open layup…Jacob assumed he’d make it and just watched . Another vandy player got the rebound and made the second attempt at it. Jacob could’ve easily corralled it had he not assumed a make
Right before halftime. Gave up the 3 in the corner, and then on the fast break he didn’t jump for the rebound. Ran past the rim and they got the put back to go up 1. Cal ripped his ass then Jacob pouted and left the huddle and wouldn’t join it. I was at the game watching it unfold. To add to this one of the walk ons was actively trying to get him back into the huddle and he would not join it. Kind of wild how he pouted but he played good in second half.Do you know around which part of the game it was?
Count me in that group. He’s had his moments but overall it just hasn’t materialized.Most of us thought Toppin was going to take this big leap, he’s been the biggest disappointment
Good lord you suck so unbelievably consistentlyHating on players unheard of on this site. Get back to hating on Cal you pussies, and leave the kids alone. Everyone knows the players aren’t to fault they just play the games, shoot, rebound, shoot free throws, foul, get fouled, make turnovers, etc. Cal is to blame don’t lose the hate, you’re better than that.

But see it is on Cal, he recruited and assembled said roster. A roster which everyone thought was top 5. I mean it’s flawed but much of the flaws are caused by our strategy.This season is not all on Cal. This is just not a great roster
His defense has not been terrific during that time period. His inability to guard has been a major factor in this team having double-digit losses.I’ll give toppin a break because he’s been terrific for the better part of 2 months now and a LOT of guys played bad against vandy. I think this is an instant when “they’re not machines” would be fair. Not excusing the loss. Just trying to be reasonable.
Finally someone answers. Thanks man.Right before halftime. Gave up the 3 in the corner, and then on the fast break he didn’t jump for the rebound.

The dude comes out and takes responsibility, something many on here will say players or Cal should do more often, and most of the comments are how terrible he is. When in fact he's been one of the best players on the team for the last month and we wouldn't have won some of those games without him being that good.
I get being disappointed in a player, especially when they have so much potential. But there's really no reason to just bash and bash. At least he's taking ownership.
Yes yes yesNeed guys who are either from or can play like they are from the "muck". Sick of these analytical thinkers.
