Caleb Forrest's cheap shot

Might as well address this.

It was stupid. It was wrong, and the correct call was made on the floor. Caleb should, and probably will, be disciplined by Tony for it. Sometimes emotions take over in a game, but there was no excuse for this. Even if Gant provoked it - and considering Gant was assessed for a technical of his own, he must have done or said something that we can't see or hear on the video. Doesn't matter. We should've shown more class than the Huskies, something that would have been very easy to do.

What makes me mad, as a Coug fan, is the double standard some Husky fans have. This is something to write the Pac-10 office about, while Tim Morris' ball-off-the-face cheap shot (see below) is perfectly defensible. You can't have it both ways. Either you are OK with both of those plays or you are angry about both of them. I don't think either one can be defended.

Or, as FSN calls it, a "smart play with no timeouts". Sure, let's go with that.

When I saw a bunch of Dawg post

I thought of the Morris/Aboya deal as well. Yes, Dawg fans do want it both ways. When Bruin posters were upset about it they called them a bunch of losers. Even worse about the Morris thing was that it was not provoked.

Anyway, Forrest was wrong, wrong, wrong. I’m glad he apologized. I hate the Mutts!

Good point

I’m glad he manned up and apologized. That proves, in a way, how out of character this was for Caleb.

I think EVERYONE is really frustrated

Because I don’t think ANYONE saw 8-5 coming, least of all these seniors. The funny thing is that Caleb is one of the few guys doing his job well.

No question

It’s the blowouts causing the frustrations or really the meltdowns causing the frustration. I really hate to see this group going through tough times. Keep the hope.
