      Isn't this the thug that punched Jackson Emery?

        That was a sniper. I was on row 4 behind the basketball and couldn't stop laughing.

          I didn't see it but I heard he slapped him. Probably while drunk. Let's just say the kid was well-known to campus security at the U., who were called to break up his parties at least once a week. That Boylen tolerated all that -- ultimately at Marshall's expense -- tells me everything I need to know about JB as a head coach.

              Those highlights certainly make him look like him turned up the crazy a few notches. Coaches and teammates pulling him back from taunting fans...
              Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

                  What are you talking about? He looks to me like he's doing fine. If Jim Boylen had the character this kid has, and had managed to keep him, Utah basedball would be in great shape now. When Henderson decided to transfer I knew that was the end of Boylen. Then Boylen really highlighted the problem by using his utefans shills to assassinate the kid's character. Stop perpetuating those libels.

                    The kid is probably a problem drinker or worse. I hope that was just part of his stupid youth and he is now taking care of that. Part of me thinks (hopes) his wild, exuberant behavior is a sign that he's finding healthy ways to deal with his demons. If so, good. Boylen probably was enabling him.

                    • What's up with Vandy's crazy baseline benches?

                      For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

                      Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                        They have the worst floor in college basketball. I can't stand watching Vandy games.

                          What could be worse than a drinker?

                              I meant the other forms of substance abuse. They usually kill people sooner than alcohol and cause serious health problems that can be irreversible. Meth, for example. If kids get into stuff like that it's pretty horrible. Note: I have no reason to believe Marshall H. was into any of that. I hope Boylen wasn't enabling him. But it looks like he was at least turning a blind eye to MH's behavior.

                                You don't know what's going on with that kid. Stop maligning him with inuendo spread by those excuse makers in the Utah basketball office. You sound like the church lady. What I saw in that film was tremendous character and a player I'd love the Utes to have. He's the best player on a team at the top of the SEC.
