A.J. Guyton

[Hovadipo]

Whaa??

Just go with it.

As much as I like/respect all the super heros of the Knight era,

Male (pride) lions kill the young of their predecessor so that their progeny excel

Except...
We haven't






Excelled...


At all..

I forgot about this post until it was liked. Some of us see things much clearer than others . Now the coach is saying we have no leadership as his excuse for his program's problems. Never heard a head coach blame leadership before, but I certainly agree. Mind blowing denial and lack of what he doesn't have. His broad shoulders comment was the only time he has come close to accept blame for anything in his program, and we see the results.

Hey, don't hurt yourself trying to pat your own back.

Some people are much more arrogant than others. This thread is about AJ Guyton, not Crean.

I hope we can get the text or video of AJ's acceptance speech linked here----I am curious what he had to say.

 

Anybody know anything on this?

[rebelhoosier848891]

Also----if Knight sent a letter to AJ that was read or made public---I wonder what it said as well.

I remember when A.J. first came to IU. He didn't have a lot accolades, but he really burst on the scene quickly in Bloomington. He had a nice jumpshot and could take it to the hole. Very smooth player and excellent IU representative. Back then we seemed to have a pipeline to Peoria.

AJ was a fun one to watch 323SGrant!  If I remember he was in the top 60-70 range coming out of high school;

 

He could shoot it from deep!

Yep, and some are much more knowledgeable about the game than others. Take AJ for example, excellent shot and very quick. He also passed the ball well and always played within a team concept. He was a class act on and off the court. It was something Indiana basketball was known for having. Good kids, students, and human beings that usually brought their A game ever night. So sad you were not around to witness anything like this to compare. I'm sure you would have a different outlook.

Class act, the epitome of a Hoosier. Congratulations A.J.

I witnessed Guyton.  He and I attended IU at the same time.  My outlook is the same as #1CreanApologist.  Your constant Crean bashing that you brought into an AJ Guyton thread is annoying.

[LazOffTheBench]

Nice, A.J. Very nice. Well done.

[323SGrant]

That was well done by A.J. Saw him a few years back and told him I went to IU as well and we had a good conversation. Nice guy. I wish him well. Thanks for sharing C.C.

never heard a coach blame leadership before? how about your beloved coach knight's son, patrick...and I quote "the worst group of seniors I have ever been around". Coaches talk about lack of leadership all the time....your agenda has you grasping at very thin straws...

Ha ha. All of your three posts spent stalking me. Now who has the agenda?

Happy you got to watch AJ as I did. He was a truly great member of the IU basketball fraternity. Like you said your Crean lovefest has another thread.

[WayneFleekHoosier]

I just finally had a chance to watch the video...

AJ NAILED it!!!!!!!! Off the cuff and perfect. So happy for him and he's right, the young bucks better recognize. Haha!!!

I'm not sure why you brought up coach knight. What pat did has nothing to do with him.

We might want to keep him around just a little while longer.
