I feel like he was a much better player than coach. His first year at Utah he brought his team to Weber and and we kicked them back to SLC with a blowout loss. After that, he refused to play us. We hurt his weedle fewings. He forgot his cane on the bench and when I walked to return it to him, he just grunted and grabbed it. No thank you, no smile, or no recognition of any kind. Not a gratious loser at all. :lol: I probably would act in a similar way. However, I would want to play the other team again soon to redeem myself. :thumb:
That is absolutely correct. His 'what you see is what you get' demeanor is okay by me. It was okay with the Utes for a while and would still be okay if he had just won more for them. The Utes did put up with Majeras for quite a while. At that level, winning is the most important factor. Winning for them is competing for a final four berth almost every year.PeauxRouge said:oldrunner said:I really liked watching him play, except when it was against Weber.

I believe he is a ferocious competitor and does not hide his emotions well, as you saw that night! Might not be what you want out of him, but it's what you will get!
