Is that your opinion?

Sounds like you are stating a fact based on knowledge that others don't have.

Please clarify.

Thanks.

Not sure what led to this but Van Horn was the one sniping when the video started.

Never is a long time. You go back in Kim Mulkey's career, she's had moments like Vitello did yesterday (some even worse). People grow, people evolve, and at the end of the day a coach's ability to win is what will prove out.

I would be more concerned with Vitello having such a short sample size as a HC to judge him by moreso than getting heated after a SEC series.

This is a terrible take. I would argue it shows he has the type of swagger LSU has lacked for too long.

You saw the way his team responded to his interaction. We need to bring that level of intensity back to the box, or risk losing the magic for good.

I’m not saying he’s the right guy, but yesterday’s altercation is a good indication of the moxie and cockiness that LSU used to carry that allowed them to overpower any opponent they faced during the skip era.

Whoever we choose, just have some nads and bring back the swagger.

I fkn love it. Passion and emotion, things our current coach no longer displays for various reasons.

I hope like hell we get him.

why? Dave Van Horn is not a professional. He is a bush league a-hole. No wonder Vitello acts like he does. We know where he got it.

He would not be where he's at right now if he hadn't coached under DVH from 2014-2017. Later on, maybe.

Maybe he would have more respect had he NOT coached under that BUSH League a-hole. Look, everyone knows why Van Horn is the douche he is. Him and old John Cohen are buds and share a royal little man penis envy and hard on for LSU. They are where they are and still haven’t won a damn thing.

He wasn't wearing the mask during the game. He put it on before he marched over to DVH to obviously hide what he was saying.




Ok I changed my mind. Anyone who steps up that prick DVH is a good dude in my book.

Word on the street is he went to Dave and said enjoy these great players I recruited for you while you can because when they are gone we are going to whip your arse.

Don't really care what anyone thinks of him. We're happy to have him at Arkansas.

But DVH had nothing to do with what happened except spouting off right back at him. What this clip doesn't show is Vitello stomping over to DVH. Coach V admitted such. They don't hate each other. Vitello found him again later and all is well.

We could do worse, obviously, but I wouldn't consider it the home run you apparently would.

He's not that much younger than Mainieri is, with half the career wins, only 1 conference title, and aside from the runner up year he has gotten it handed to him in Omaha.

We could use a little less class around here. Maybe don’t give an opponent a victory lap after they beat you
