Elijah Johnson: classless thug

[Powercat Posse]

1)  It was a total classless move

2) I sadly admit, i thought it was a little funny since Isu is a piece of crap team

3) EJ was 33%FG and 27% 3pt in conf play b4 tonight.... so he will play like crap in a NCAA tourney game and KU fans will all despise him again

[Phil Titola]

Only thing he did wrong was apologize. Puss.

[420seriouscat69]

Total boss.

Beems, who's butthurt by a Animal tweet, totally supports this. #priceless

[Rage Against the McKee]

It wasn't quite as boss as doing backflips or going to give the refs a big hug would have been, but it was still pretty boss. It was almost worth watching us get mumped out of a Big 12 title just to see that. Almost.

[OKclone]

Good job outta you.

[yoga-like_abana]

Lulz that would have been a boss move, you are right about that!

ed you are a really annoying poster. and not in the way jtksu who was good at it way.

i'm laughing at the beetlejuice pic, nice work.

I don't recall anyone having a problem with Smart backflipping after the KU game in Lawrence. So it is only an issue if a KU does something that is probably in poor taste at the end or after a game? Got it

Should have clarified. I meant on gE, not for KU fans reactions. You are right KU fans lost their crap about that, I didn't even know it happened until people started talking about it before the game in Stillwater. I could give two shits really.

I think doing a backflip after a big win is just funny, changing the box score at the last second to rub salt in the wound is worse.

[Rage Against the McKee]

I don't have any problem with either post-game celebration and I wish more players would show emotion after big wins.

[sonofdaxjones]

So a guys does a couple of back flips and phogtucks meltdown.   A boss University President has a little harmless banter on Twitter with a ku fan and phogtucks meltdown.   phogtucks hate storming the floor . . . but still wax ecstatic to this day about throwing goalposts in Potter's Water Retention area.  A ku player performs a classic RUTS move on the road, phogtucks think it's awesome.   

Apologizing was sanctimonious and pussified after the fact.

[ednksu]

I think it was BITB who talked about the Smart back flip before this game, and it really is totally obvious he was stoked about the win.  If anything it should validate KU's need for exterior validation.  Apparently the last time he did the flip was when his high school team won state, second Ford was running around hugging assistants yelling, reportedly, "my god we've done it", which if true, does show that OSU had little to no expectation to win.

To compare the two incidents shows the phog's complete and total lack of humility, understanding of sport, and sportsmanship.  The dribble out is a sign of respect, and when unguarded, is the ultimate lay down by the opposition in a sign of showing submission to their betters.  Petro was right, it is up to ISU to keep up the guard, but, if you are willing to violate the unwritten rules of the dribble out, don't get mad when the player is destroyed in the remaining seconds, don't get mad when they meet again and that player is targeted for removal from that game.

what was the situation last year where jamsam ran out the clock instead of doing a monster dunk.  i remember everyone wishing he did a monster dunk instead.  don't remember which game though :(

JFC, the only thing that would have been better would be him sinking a 3 to end it.

Kinda surprised he didn't try it for the sake of going for 40

it was Mizzou.  Bowers threw down a ruts dunk in 2011 maybe? I wanted Jamar to fake like he was going to dunk then flash guys million dollar smile at the mu bench but I think he just dribbled back out like it was nbd.

[Havs]

Diante Garrett dunked late against Virginia when we were up 13 points back in 2010. We all love it when our school does it, and hate it when the opponent showboats at the end.

Remember when Mizzou did that to us? I think it was Beasley's year.
