Vanderbilt Commodores head coach Jerry Stackhouse didn’t leave any doubt to officials Wednesday night in Vanderbilt’s loss to VCU.
Officials called a technical foul on Vanderbilt’s Liam Robbins, a call that Stackhouse obviously was not a fan of. He let the officials have it, mouthing several expletives before having to be restrained. Obviously, he was later ejected.
He got his money’s worth, for sure.
Vanderbilt has had a bit of an up and down start to the year. The Commodores are 3-4 on the season with respectable losses to Memphis, Saint Mary’s and VCU. It’s obvious they care, though.
Vanderbilt takes on Wofford this Saturday looking to get back to .500 on the season.

While the Robbins foul obviously set him over the edge, the officiating all night was horrendous. VCU basically fouling on every possession and no call. The technical foul was ludicrous by itself, but if the officials had been marginally cromulent at some time during the evening, I doubt Stack loses his mind at the call. I would not want to anger Stackhouse. I'm reminded of the Eddie Murphy line, 'he don't look like he can't fight, he look like he can whip some ass.'
This is only the second time I’ve ever heard the word cromulent used in a sentence.
Isn't interesting that Stackhouse is a da.mn fo.ol...
Stackhouse is an empty house... dumb as a door knob.
However, I was rooting for Vanderbilt... but this coach is lacking a mature skill set among other things.
Go Vols!
Dean Smith would be proud. It always makes me laugh when Roy Williams said Dean never cussed and that he never cussed. Typical Tar Hole arrogance and hypocrisy.
GatorPhil...The North Carolina Tar Heel basketball program is proud of Den Smith & Roy Williams for their contributions toward continuing the great history of Tar Heel Basketball. But much less proud of Stack.
Question? How does he think this "helps" his team or position? Just a bad look. IMO
Musselman and Stack house both showing their players it's okay to spew expletives and act like children and get away with it. At the most is an ejection...not like they have to be remorseful over incidents.
I miss the Dale Brown days when players and coaches alike were held accountable and punished for actions and not just giving lip service.
