I was at the UCF/Memphis game last night. Close game throughout. Then, late in the game UCF started making a bit of a run. The fans were getting excited. I watched Coach Dawkins waving his arms imploring the fans to whoop it up loud to give his players that extra shot of adrenaline. Can anyone envision CMD doing that?? I believe it helped his team go on to a solid victory. And it was fun and exciting. I had zero interest in who won the game but I found myself getting caught up in the wave of excitement.

I am not going to defend the late-game coaching, because it's indefensible. We certainly looked like the better team for around 35 minutes against USD and BYU. I am guessing that Dunlap is over coaching during time outs near the ends of games, thereby leaving the players completely confused when they go back on the floor.
However, the 3-hour comment about the Friday morning practice strikes me as a complete fabrication. After all, the players have classes on Friday mornings. No coach is going to ask his players to cut classes for a practice. That would get most coaches severely reprimanded and in many cases fired. I have also seen a couple comments that were supposedly made by players. I cannot claim the comments definitely weren't made, but I am wondering how the bullish*t one and a few others earlier in the year were even heard by any poster on the Lions Den. Most players won't make public comments like the ones I have read about here.

bell’s alleged comment is total b.s.. just like the poster’s reference to a dunlap-douglass fabricated practice conversation made earlier this season. as to the Friday practice between last week’s games-totally bs. I was there, beginning with the white board dunlap byu talk at the beginning through the red team running byu sets, through lmu running their sets, through several shooting drills at both ends, through 2 to a basket foul shots. The whiteboard talk began about 8:45 and Practice ended at 11:00, in time for the Women to begin their regularly scheduled court time -game day preparation for pepperdine.

cs continues his bs. he wasn’t at Practice last Friday. I was. dunlap didn’t go after bell for yawning. cs needs to find more accurate sources to feed his Dunlap hate. Certainly, the truth is no match for his bias.

I must apologize for questioning the claim of Friday morning practices. As a "senior fan" I am clearly out of touch with 21st century class schedules. I scanned LMU's 2019 Spring schedule and learned that well over half of three-hour courses are taught in two sessions, either M,W or T,TH. There were some courses in science and engineering that were taught in the traditional (for me) MWF format, but overall, an athlete could schedule the vast majority of his/her classes to leave Friday free. I guess that even at my age i have not yet learned to get the facts before I shoot off my mouth.
