    Bruce Weber decided to coach in the Big Ten tourney. Fine, it's what she would wanted. But now he's doing interviews on the brackets. Dicky V and Digger bring it up and he has no reaction. Something isn't right. He's either in shock, doesn't care, or really loves basketball.

    she wanted it this way. sounds like she was a 'life goes on' type.

    “The last thing she told my sister before she went into surgery was not to tell me and not to tell my brother before our games, because then we would worry about her and we wouldn’t coach like we’re capable of,” Weber said. “That was in her heart.”

    Bruce’s younger brother David, an area high school coach, was on the bench for his Glenbrook North team’s playoff game Friday night, learning of his mother’s death after a one-point victory.

    “It’s tough when you lose somebody,” Bruce Weber said. “But we felt as a family my mom wanted me to coach. She wanted my brother to coach last night.”

    “She was a huge fan. She loved the games. She had a satellite dish,” Weber said. “The Ohio State game kind of got to her. She didn’t like that.”

    I don't have anything bad to say about him coaching but I think you were eluding to the fact the constant "Our condolances...." from the media. I am guessing they didn't want to come off as rude by not saying something publically. I can't even imagine how he has gotten thru this what with what is on his plate

    It would be differant if his child died but an 81 year old undergoing emergency open heart surgery is a differant thing alltogether.
