Does anyone ever listen to the pregame interviews with Jimmy Collins and Dave Wills? The past two have been somewhat interesting and thought I'd share a couple things said for those that don't get a chance to hear them....
1) Jimmy was extremely unhappy with the officiating in the UWGB game. He said that it killed UIC's momentum and that he would be talking to the league commisioner about it.
2) Karl White had gone to up to Collins in practice before the WSU game and told him that at first he wasn't sure he could play at the level required in the HL. But he told Collins that he now believes he can and that he's trying hard to learn.
3) Before the Butler game, Jimmy mentioned how he talked to Poole about his lack of effort in the WSU game and Poole's response was that he couldn't get into the game because he was cold. Apparently, he didn't bring some undergarments of some type and he could never get warmed up.
So, I think some interesting things come out in these interviews although this Poole thing really bothered me. To blame a lack of effort on being cold? I don't even want to hear that....even if it makes it harder, are you telling me that you don't warm up when running up and down the court? Although, therein may lie the probelm....Poole wasn't doing much of anything against WSU.
