Tang Postgame Comments

Substance abuse or high functioning schizophrenia. He just doesn’t seem in control of his own actions or emotions.
Was thinking Weber made the final four, at least Elite Eight, and they fired him after a couple years, IIRC.
This. Tamin flops some, but usually it's to draw attention to the massive amount of contact he's always fighting through and never gets calls for. I don't see him trying to create a foul out of nothing, but just to get the refs to acknowledge what's constantly happening to him.
Talk about trying to sell his underachieving team to the selection committee. Embarrassing
I think he plays through contact so well he doesn't get the calls he should quite often. See the mugging he took from the KState post before he rocketed a pass underneath for a dunk.
Considering the context of the question and the tone of Tang's response up to that point, it seems like his comment about Lipsey was meant as a little good-natured ribbing - the kind of thing we'd all get a chuckle about if it were Bill Self.
But it isn't Bill Self. If Tang had the slightest hint of self-awareness, he'd know he's persona non grata among this fan base and he should just stay away from stuff like that. It's no wonder the joke didn't land.

The one that bounced off the ref! That was an awesome play!
No, that entire interview was tone deaf. Even when he was highlighting the negatives of his own players, just odd. Especially with the Bible clutching he did.
He's straight up a weirdo. Just let him run his mouth as that Elite Eight gets further and further in the rear view. It's only a matter of time before he's in a full blown crisis in Manhattan.
Don't soil the good Wu-Tang name like that.
I agree in that I think his intent was playful, but that shows how awful he is at reading the room. You can't call out the opposing team's floor general in the same season you accuse the coaching staff of cheating and play it off like a good-natured jab.
I guess I would have to inquire further as to the intent of his Lipsey comment. Could be he was holding Tamin up as the standard in taking a charge. Challenging his own player in the statement.
ill give randy p some credit takin a shot at Tang, too
"Tang can complain about Lipsey all he wants. The bottom line is that the former Ames High School star is a winner. He’ll be playing in the NCAA Tournament next week, while Tang’s team is likely playing someone in the, ahem, NIT."

No. He was not. He said how he tells a Perry to stop doing it, and then transitions to Lipsey being #1 at this thing he wishes players wouldn’t do.
Honestly, it was more weird and beyond the pale than walking over across the half court line to accuse your opponent of spying on your huddle. You just don’t call out players like that in college athletics.
BY ought to give Tang a call and say something. The dude has lost it.
