Most annoying players and coaches in the Big 10

Opposing fans hate coaches for one big reason....they win. You hate Bo because he's a winner.

You know why no one hates Pat Chambers or Bill Carmody? Their teams suck.

People in Iowa would hate the F#@$ out of Tim Miles if he won consistently, especially since he is at a border school.

When do you ever hear Wisconsin basketball players in the news for getting in trouble with the law, failing classes, DUI's? I'm sure there is an occasional incident but not the regularity at other schools. People hated Chris Kramer and Brian Cardinal because they were smart, scrappy and good.

Besides Uthoff, you badger fans lost one of their best players ever. The one and only wild man Sam Okey, Atomic would love him like he loves Zach Wild Bull McCabe......

Okey was a man among boys......

If he hadn't been injured in the Minnesota game his last year, and Ricky Davis had stayed at Iowa instead of going to the pros, we would have been National Champs not a doubt in my mind......

I like Sam Decker.....
 
I don't think I've truly hated a college basketball player since DeMarcus Cousins of UK, and Josh Harrellson before him. Mostly the cocky ones only make me laugh, like Sheehey and Marshall Henderson.

Probably the player I truly hated more than any other was Christian Laetner, could not stand him period...super tool.
 
I can see why a lot of people dislike Sheehey, but I like to watch him play. He knows what he is doing, makes few turnovers, makes very good passes and can score.....

One of the best sixth men in college basketball, if not the best. He is the player you love to hate.....

Speaking of players who are annoying, the announcer for the Wisconsin game Mike Kelley was one of the most obnoxious defenders in the history of the Big Ten.....

Now for the hatred.....

That's a good list. I would put Izzo on it just because of his constant, unceasing, whining to the officials. I don't hate him, but he is annoying.

Indiana has gotten cocky this year.

I actually don't mind Izzo, for some reason. I think I like MSU more than some, and do like Izzo. I just flat-out hate Wisconsin.

Crean really isn't that bad, either, but I felt like I had to have 3 spots. I've not seen a lot of Chambers this year, but from what some have said, he should have one of those spots. Really, as I thought about it, there aren't that many coaches in the conference who bug me. It doesn't help that there are so many new faces this year, with Chambers, Miles, and Groce. Tubby is the only other guy that gets on my nerves, and for some reason, I find him more funny than annoying at times.

Especially when he stomped the Kentucky player on the floor on the chest in the NCAA tournament. The game he made the winning shot, sometimes called the greatest game in BBall history.....

Laettner Admits Stomping Timberlake - YouTube


I like the title to that video.. Laettner "admits" to stomping on the other player.. Admits? There is video evidence of him doing it. You're caught whether you "admit" it or not, Christian. Great player, but that was a punk move.
 
How can you possibly leave Mike Brusewitz off this list? Ben Brust is quickly rising up my list as well. I agree on Craft, I also dislike one of the Johnsons from Purdue, can't remember which one.

100% agree with Brusewitz. What a hot dog.
 
If you dislike the other coaches so much (for the record, I rank Izzo as #1 baby)....has any of them thrown a chair?

As for Bo, he gives a great post game interview...have to give him kudos for that. As does FM. Both as very refreshing.

And as a side (yes, yes, I know, wrong 'board')....I think Urban Meyer gives a great interview and is very candid.
 
I actually don't mind Izzo.

If you asked fans from other Big10 schools, I'd guess that Coach Fran and McCabe would be on a lot of lists.

Fran belongs on that short list, but Bo Ryan should occupy the top two spots.

You havent seen all. 70's has everything, fistfights spitting bloods bodyslamming very entertaining.
 
Bo Bo Crean, the Grinch like clown.

My list:

Bo, Bo, Bo

And:

Any Wisconsin hatchet man forward from the Bo Bo Grinch era.
 
Bruesewitz is the most annoying player because he thinks hes good and he's really terrible. I wish he could have indefinite eligibility, he's that bad.
 
I actually respect all the coaches in the B1G and no beef with any of the players. Oh, did I say all? There is one coach. Especially when he is doing this..........

Also when he went on Mike&Mike following the Uthoff affair and came off as a whiny, greasy, used car salesmen, that was just the end for me.
