Caleb Grill has been dismissed from team

[Cy4All]

When I posted this thread it was in reference to his on court actions. I didn't mean any hatred toward Grill as a person just frustrated with his on court behavior. I see why some people took my comments a certain way. In light of what has happened today and Grill's Twitter comments I do regret some of those comments I made. I hope the best for Grill in the future and hope he gets the help he needs.

He isnt wrong, he became a cancer.

Certainly makes sense now. I was wondering what he wanted to say but wouldn’t

 

[CyCrazy]

No it’s not. You are misusing that phrase.

I can’t imagine why anyone would prefer to lose and have imaginary moral high ground over winning championships. Personally I’d rather ISU win championships.

Moral high ground is comical, just win baby.

Sorry to hear. We may never know the full story. Best wishes to Caleb. Never want to hit someone when he/she is down.

You may have taken this a bit too far, thus the negative feedback. But your point remains. Caleb may be dealing with his back pain issues in a less than positive way. One has to go thru chronic back pain, or a significant back pain situation to understand.

He is not going to need lumbar fusion. That is reserved for older, worn out backs. Is he having an ongoing back pain issue? Back pain was an issue, for sure, to start. Ongoing pain, I don't know. No one in the know has said anything regarding that.

Your last statement, referencing the Alabama situation, really doesn't apply, but I can understand the comment. You should have left that out.

Overall, your post has some relevance.

He is definitely still dealing with pain, that’s why he didn’t play in the two recent road games and has been limited in minutes lately. Otz has said do in post game.

Yes, you are right. Because I disagree with your take that you prefer ISU basketballs programs success over KUs, I am not capable of raising children to be good people.

Seriously dude, get off your high horse and pull the corn cob out of your ass.

I guess you are just better at picking and choosing your morale high ground. I have a different vision for ISU and trust TJ did the right thing.

I win lt say exactly what I think it was but Caleb went from Mr nice guy on the court to a total attitude change the last year. Went from humble to cocky, couple cheap shots, trash talking guy. I know what I think it is but won’t say it. Have a smile and stfu up is what I’ll do.

Totally agree. A+ effort early on and doing a great job until that back injury. Downward spiral after that. That anger just seemed out of character IMHO. Good luck Caleb.

I'm not in the cave

Is there another Amish clone? I pretty clearly remember Amish something in there striking me with 1950s sensibilities. Apologies if it was someone else w similar name.

I don't care if he ever picks up a basketball again. That's not important right now. I hope he gets the help he needs.

Best of luck to him. That UNC game seems like a lifetime ago but that will go down as one of the most enjoyable games I've seen and his role in it was huge.

Ignore reason: verified why.

Pretty close source to the program told me Grill said “I don’t know why people think it’s so special, it’s just a ******* bridge”

I heard he said “Honey, let’s invite that venture capitalist over for dinner.” (For cyclone radio listeners)

How can anyone in the cave post negativity about anyone else. Birds of a feather

You can make 10-1 money off him though.

Jacob Park 2.0 good potential, bad haircut, bad attitude/ midseason meltdown.

It’s easy for adults to be civilized and respect others, because some don’t doesn’t mean nobody is mature. The basketball threads are no more/less respectful and this thread is a prime example. I apologized if I was wrong, I mean it’s not like I track every dude with “Amish” in their name.

Learning a whole lot about our fanbase today. Pretty ******* sad.

What, that we're obsessed with basketball like KUfans? Have you been under a rock since 1984?

That our fans want to win at any cost and are willing to rationalize it. Nice job twisting my words.

 

[Cydkar]

Someone messaged me the real reason and I'm glad to say I was wrong.

You could have used some critical thinking and saved some time.

The hair was objectively making games worse for me. Really cringe.

JFC...you got him pegged as an opiod-hooked maniac with a gun???Surprised you didn't have him beating defenseless animals.

You read that wrong. As a person who lived through a t3/t4 fusion and chronic pain for a year where I couldnt sleep, took opioids, epidurals, while managing my job, wife and kids, I'm saying it takes so much out of you when you can't even roll out of bed, can't sleep no matter what amount of melatonin you take, gained weight, can't work out, can't do the things you love, you become irrational and say regretful things to your loved ones.

The gun analogy is about the Alabama player who continues to play and my disapproval of removing a player from a team that probably needs a support system more than anything.

 

[NWICY]

Lol, jfc, **** this team and this season. Flush it all down and start again next year. No desire at all to watch this trainwreck continue.

Please remember this Saturday during the B12 tournament and the NCAAs. We won't miss your posting either.
