More whining from you guys? You realize when he’s establishing/holding position that more often than not he’s being held, pushed, grabbed, hacked? What’s he supposed to do when that happens to him?

I don’t know it it’s whining exactly. For example , some Purdue fans again were complaining about the refs last week , and you won the game !
God I love Izzo's tears, whiniest head coach in the conference.
Fair - but to be honest besides us MD fans , lots of fans of Big Ten teams complain about refs here .😎
Like I’ve said, no better sign of a dying program.
Dude has had a hell of a career but complaining about officiating when you don't have the horses at the same position is just tired.
MSU fans discussing Izzo’s whining: good and noble, trying to improve the game
Purdue fans discussing Izzo’s whining: triggered whiners

I think he’s no more physical than guys are allowed to be physical with him. He adjusts to how the game is called. In B1G play, it’s crazy how much refs swallow their whistles both ways.
I'll happily concede Edey has been allowed to get physical eatablishing position and the rip-through/chicken-wing move is 50/50 most times.
But officials allow defenders to hack the shit out of him when he gets into his move.
It's my greatest fear about this team in March: drawing a crew who has no idea how to officiate Edey and who dings him for two quick ones that haven't been called all conference season.
Very valid post about March Madness- Edey goes out with two early fouls potentially , can the rest of the team stay afloat without him...
They did the same thing after winning in East Lansing too. This is the peak of their season each year, they go oddly quiet in March. The definition of a fraud program.
They have a bizarre infatuation with Izzo, and a bunch of them who still post here are guilty of saying some psychotic shit about Izzo in the past.
Instead of blaming the officials or crying about how Edey is just too big, you would think they would try to recruit better than MAC-level centers first.
Today was nothing more than an easy Q2 win on an overmatched opponent whose coach is more impactful at the podium than on the court.
“They have a bizarre infatuation with izzo” he posts 3 times a day.
Ehh this is nothing new for you guys... and today solidified that. Rinse and repeat.
Pointing out izzo crying is the equivalent to pointing out Fran getting mad. Izzo just getting his ass kicked a lot more these days.
y'all trot out turnover machine and FT clanker AJ Hoggard, tiny Tyson Walker, timid Akins, soft as baby shit Hauser (Furst ate his lunch today), and zero offensive threat Mady Sissoko and you blame officiating? That's the worst starting 5 in 20 years of MSU basketball. zero toughness. and average at best skill.
Lotta chirping from the bubble boys in East Lansing today.
He ain't wrong on the 3 seconds----But its not just Edey. Its a rule they might as well get rid of---Its never called. Guys like Edey are tough enough---but when you allow them to camp for 5-6 seconds----nope.
Wanna clean up post play? Call 3 seconds.
You know most of this started from Izzo once again whining in his post game presser right? As a whole, we didn’t get y’all much grief about what actually happened on the court. Could’ve been a lot worse from us but it was fairly tame. Not our fault y’all got butthurt about the officiating.
I'm sure I'll get called a homer, but I feel like Edey is as good at working in and out of the lane to reset the three-count as any big Purdue has had in the past decade.
Undoubtedly, there's a few possessions each game he could get called for it. But he's not "camping" anywhere.
What’s worse? The psychotic shit we’ve said about Izzo or all of the shit that’s gone on at MSU during his tenure?
What does it say about MSU if our “fraud” program has owned you in recent years?
We still talking about your program's downward spiral?
He camps----as does TJD.....As does Oscar.....As does Ballo....As does any big. And why would you not? It rarely, if ever, gets called. I've watched games where Edey has been in the lane for 5, 6 seconds....Same with TJD...
Now one thing is, a lot officials don't really bother with it, IF they don't feel the player in the lane is trying to get position, move for position, trying to score, etc....I get that. And understand it.
BUT----when a dude catches the ball on one box----passes out----re-post, takes two dribbles, then goes up for his shot, ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm........And that happens A LOT.
MSU has a more recent conference championship, conference tourney championship, elite eight, final four, NC appearance, and national title than Purdue.
