Re: Jake, would you please...

Wow, speechless...

Got to love the chutzpah and arrogance of a poster who ends his thoughts with "If you don't like my thoughts than don't read them!", when he so clearly wants us to read them. In this board forum, you don't have the option to click or not click on a poster's thoughts BowelMovementPanther, what are we supposed to do when we see your name, close our eyes, keep on scrolling downwards, and then open our eyes?

Clearly the front-runner for dumbest post of 2010, and it's only mid-February. You may say you don't want the attention for your thoughts, but you clearly got it.

Re: Jake, would you please...

I agree with you Blue. I think Coach Jake understands the theory of basketball just fine, but I do not think he is a good coach. I think he has gotten lucky that Mac's recruits stayed after Mac left, and after this season, we will see what kind of a coach he really is...and I think it will be ****ty. He doesn't know when to pull KA, he doesn't leave the right players in for the right situations, and he is a horrible big man coach. I know I'm gonna get crucified for this and I know were 22-2, but I don't like Coach Jake, I think he's a ****ty coach, and to me he will always be Alford Junior. If you don't like my opinions, don't read them!

go away.

Re: Jake, would you please...

I met Jake briefly and had the pleasure of running into him and his wife in public a few months later.

I had no intentions of bothering him and to my surprise, he approached my family with his wife and introduced himself and his wife to my wife and kids.

I never in a hundred years would have thought that he would even remember meeting me and if he did, he owed me no greetings. I would have thought that a head nod or a wave would have been great but never would have even expected that.

I promise you that he is no "Steve Alford"

The man is a class act and one hell of a coach. We are very lucky to have him and I pray that he stays the head coach of our rising program for a VERY LONG TIME....

Sorry for the rant but those are fighting words dude!!


Thats whats up...

PantherN8..OUT!!

Thank you for sharing this story. Jake is a great guy, and we will be incredibly fortunate if he and his family decide to call this place home for the years to come.

BM----if it was your intention to p---off everyone on Panther Nation while drawing a huge amount of attention to yourself congrats, it worked. Coach Jake is an amazing coach, an as kind as they come. I offer this not as an observation from afar but from countless opportunities to interact with him in a variety of settings. My good fortune. You are way out of line here. But, it's a free country and you have every right to be WRONG!!!!

This post was an opinion of one, based on nothing. He did what he wanted to do ... stir the pot.

What's funny is that history says he is serious and that he actually believes that Jake is some kind of snake-oil salesman that has sold his soul to the devil to win games.

Jake, would you please... keep doing exactly what you're doing...

See you late into March, BM...

Re: Jake, would you please...

Blue42, I'm not going to lump you in with BMPanther . . . you brought up some valid points in my opinion, but alas, points that don't really matter in the grand scheme of things. We're winning and that's that.

In conference play, I have not been impressed with Kwadzo. Not in the way I was in non-conference play. I came on here after our non-conference stretch and said that Kwadzo's level of play would garner him play on any team in this country . . . I don't think I would agree with my own statement anymore. He makes me a tad nervous now, and I can't put my finger on exactly why.

Early in the season, Kwadzo was our leader. Plain and simple. Because he's our point guard he's obviously still in a leadership role, but I would no longer call him our leader. But so what? He's the only one we have to run the point effectively and at 22-2 in a competitive league like The Valley, he must not be doing too bad of a job . . .

Re: Jake, would you please...

Sometime you wonder can Jacobsen coach and then you look at his record and you say yes he can.

Re: Jake, would you please...

I have questioned Jake once. Sitting in the McLeod Center during the Indiana State debacle 14 months ago. I guess he answered that one.

We've got to hold on to this guy for a long, long time.
