Hunter Dickinson's Quotes About The Other Big 10 Teams Shows He's A Grade A Grudge Guy And That's AWESOME

Yeah, this is what you're supposed to do here. The Big 10 has Michigan and Purdue left, so naturally he left them out. But the point here is Hunter Dickinson is a grade A grudge guy. Using NIT chants and rattling them off is exactly what you want to hear. I say it all the time but I'm sick of boring ass quotes. I'm sick of players and coaches just giving canned answers. That's why I respect the hell out of Hunter Dickinson. He doesn't give a damn about anything. He just wants to go out play basketball and win. 

I know this is anti-SEC stance because we chant it at every football bowl game. But I'm done with the conference thing. I don't want other teams that I play every year to win shit. Sure it was rough listening to Marty ramble to me about how the ACC is validated and the SEC is overrated because of the NCAA Tournament. But it comes with the territory. This is just from a fan standpoint too. I assume that all players don't want to see their rivals succeed. If they do, I don't want them on my roster. 

The fact is college hoops is better with personalities, whether it's coaches or players. That's just a fact. It's part of what made the Big East so damn good back in the day when you had Lou Carnesseca, big John Thompson, Boeheim, Rollie Massimino, Calhoun and the rest of the group. It's why there will always be a soft spot for guys like Huggins. I just want guys to speak their mind and not be afraid to piss people off. 

Plus what can people say back to Dickinson? His team is playing in the second weekend. That's what matters. Oh the regular season didn't live up to the hype? Big deal. They did enough to get to the NCAA Tournament. That's where you're graded and Michigan is one of the last 16 left.
