I thought this was his most interesting quote (because I think Fisher's teams have always focused on defense and I believe we don't run as much as most people think):
We got great looks. We knew going into this game that we were going to get great looks. They're an offensive team that looks to score in transition and turn you over to score. If we can do what we did tonight taking care of the basketball we will be in a lot of games and have a chance to win a lot of games. We had five turnovers tonight against a team that prides itself in turning you over."

I have no problem with what Rodney Terry said. He's right - Jamaal is an intimidator who comes extremely close to crossing the line at times (Kemba bump, Jimmer face-off, teabagging Syracuse player, dodgeball with Phillip McDonald's face, etc). The Fresno coach said his players weren't going to back down at their place; good for him and good for them. Jamaal still got nearly a 20-20. Sums it up. We've all seen Jamaal trash talk much more than this game. I wish the rest of the team honestly did more just like him. |

Um, per ESPN, Jamaal had a night for the history books:
Stat Sheet Stuffer – Jamaal Franklin, San Diego State
Highlighted by an off-the-backboard dunk, Jamaal Franklin finished with 20 points, 18 rebounds, five assists and three blocks in the Aztecs’ 65-62 win over Fresno State. Over the past 10 seasons, the only other players to equal that line are North Texas’ Tony Mitchell and Oakland’s Keith Benson. The last player on a ranked team to do it? Seton Hall’s Eddie Griffin in 2000.

every coach across America would love to have J-Frank on their team.
Fisher runs a tight ship but lets his players play. That, and the winning, is why they love him.

Really?? After a game where the officiating was so bad that even Fisher got a T??? 99% of referees would NOT call the charges this crew did last night.
Classless and Fresno have gone hand in hand for years and this guys is point fingers at SDSU. The school and city of Fresno have been called the ARMPIT of California for all the right reasons. Take a look at drug activity, crime, literacy, pollution, poverty, etc. etc.
MORE IMPORTANTLY, if Fresno had a BETTER COACH game would've either been won by Fresno or gone into OT. Two small samples, with little over a minute left Fresno did NOTHING to prevent Jamaal from taking the inboud..................the BEST Free Throw shooter at SDSU. Then, what the hell was that last play of the game.............pass it around at the top fo the box for last 18 seconds and then chuck a hail mary. Really??
Stick to coaching and when you're HALF the Coach that Fisher is, maybe you'll stop being MWC's BITCH not just SDSU.
SDSU by 15 or more in couple of weeks in San Diego in the rematch.

Yeah, I don't see this team having the same emotional intensity when they come to Viejas and have to deal with THE SHOW. 10 or more win second time around. |

I did happen to notice that when they showed shots of the Fresno cheerleaders that they pretty much had all of their teeth. That's an improvement. Onward and upward for Fresno State.
Seriously though, why does everybody get so worked up about what other coaches/ players say?

Completely agree with the end game management by FSU's coach. Almost seemed like he was satisfied keeping it close against a ranked opponent.   |
