Harrison's Draft Stock

[Bryan Medema 1,488]

Question 1: Does his attitude/comment after the game affect his draft stock?

 

Question 2: If roles were reversed would Kaminsky even be draftable? 

 

Discuss.

On #2, if Kaminski said that pUKe fans and the media would have his head on a platter.  Apologizing wouldn't even come close to being the end of it.

[Alford Bailey 12,292]

What did he say?

[Hovadipo 53,421]

#1 does him zero favors. He was already a fringe prospect.

#2 is so unlikely that it's hard to even imagine the consequences.

[JSHoosier 19,678]

What did he say?

Said f___ that n-word under his breathe when a reporter asked about Kaminski.

Ah, wow I watched that presser and remembered someone sayin something but had no idea.

[LIHoosier 25,082]

1. If he was surefire, it would be swept under the rug; maybe the team that drafted him if under any pressure would place him in some "sensitivity class".

2. Assuming the result of the game was the same, Wisconsin would be forced into suspending him for the title game amidst all types of extortion.

    I think he'd still be draftable after an exhausting apology tour.

Just from my perspective, I'm white and several of my black dudes refer to me as "******" so I'm not sure anyone should take it there just in case...

I'm more thrown off at the "f that" statement. He sounds like a 15 year old spoiled asshat.. Dekker and Kaminsky put it on yall... Get over it.. U can't have cake before bed tonight sweet cheeks, maybe tomorrow. Life is rough, I know.

And I'd like to know when Lyles is going to be investigated for the left Judi chop

#1: No.  Think about it, any NBA coach has heard that millions of times in the locker room, on the bench, etc. 

 

#2: No, nobody would draft him.  The story would blow up all major media, the focus would pretty much be all on him in a negative light for the championship game tomorrow, and there would probably be riots and demonstrations in Madison all week.

Yeah, great follow up to the poor sportsmanship on the court. It baffles me the way they reacted- Even in pick up games where fist fights have nearly broken out I've still shook/slapped hands and said good game. Given his suspect level of talent, I wouldn't touch the kid if I was a GM- Utter lack of maturity.

Less about what was said, more about where. Saying something like that when the whole world is watching says a lot about someone's lack of awareness.

Preach on, bleedhoosier; you just nailed it. Harrison used the "asshat" street vernacular that he has been raised with. It degrades both black and white folks when he does so.

BUT, the primary feeling that I got from his outburst was that Harrison is an entitled brat who cannot bear to acknowledge that Wisky brought it to him and his teammates.

Also, Harrison's "apology" stated that he said what he said "in jest". LIAR! He sure didn't look like he was joking when he said it.

[AKHoosier 6,610]

Yeah good point, I hadn't considered that. 

 

His attitude actually could be a concern, when you factor in his unwillingness to shake hands at the end of a game too.  Shows immaturity.

No, Frank the tank would not get drafted...Jerry Buss was forced to sell an NBA team and he didn't even use that word...

Ridiculous behavior. Just tells me some of the Paycats believed what the media was feeding them about how great they were. Makes the loss even more sweeter.

BUT, it is, and legitmately should be, different when a white guy makes a racist slur against black people, versus when a black person uses the same slur.

 

If a white guy does it, the intent is racism,

If a black guy uses it, it is simply...pathetic.

And here I thought drinking the Kool Aid was an Indiana tradition...

So question 3- Does the post game reaction of UK Players/Coach have any bearing on how recruits perceive the program?

[Alford Bailey 12,292]

Even UK announcer called out the guys who didnt shake hands. It was that bad.

Wouldnt think it affects their recruiting.

[crazywillie 192]

These guys have no class...never did..never will. No surprises here. Kid should be ripped up and down by media. Keep catering to them and expect more of the same.
