Subject: Re: Engles interview Author: Old Lion (one theory) [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 11:37:41 02/09/25 Sun In reply to: Terrace72 's message, "Engles interview" on 11:25:19 02/09/25 Sun Engles has already been told that he is finished at the end of the season. So he has dropped all pretense and acted like a jerk to Lance. Somebody else is coaching the team right now. Look who the players gather around during time outs—Carberry, while Engles stands 15 feet away counting down the hours before he is history. Let’s see if O’Keefe starts and gets 25-30 minutes for the rest of the season. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

Ungracious and just rude - no need for sarcasm the guy should be humble. After a strong start to the season - i can understand his frustration but perhaps the admins should just show him the door. Makes me wonder what the dynamics are with the players too. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

I thought that the Columbia announcers were excellent throughout the game. That interview leaves me dumbfounded -- what a first-class jerk response to a softball question. Medow deserved better.

Had he hung on against Princeton and Yale, perhaps we would be having a different discussion. You will note that he referenced the Princeton game during that classless interview. Maybe we would have seen a better season if he hadn’t buried O’Keefe at the end of the bench. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> [> [> [> Subject: Re: Engles interview Author: The Mountain Lion [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 13:09:40 02/11/25 Tue Interesting that despite all the adverse publicity on-line the Columbia Athletic Administration has yet to remove from its website Lance Medow's post-game interview of Coach Engles. You open the website and it's right there to see-Lance asking Engles a couple of excellent questions and a confused Engles responding in a highly unusual manner. With hindsight, Engles was fortunate that Medow didn't ask him how he buried the star of the game, Gerard O'Keefe, at the end of Columbia's bench for nearly the whole season. In my opinion, and certainly others, O'Keefe is clearly very talented and will enjoy a very successful basketball career at Columbia despite Coach Engles. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
