Keith Frazier's Post-game Interview

Postby Prideful Pony » Thu Dec 18, 2014 1:30 pm

Keith has been on a roll the last couple of games and is developing into the star player most of us hoped he'd be as a McD's All-American. But when he was interviewed after the game last night, he was pretty funny in an accidental way and more than a little uncomfortable.

Maybe someone on the coaching staff could sit him down and give him a brief tutorial on talking with media? Especially since his play is making him one of the faces of the team. Hard to knock a teenager for not knowing how to talk to a reporter but his future hopefully has a lot more interviews in store.

I loved the announcers' responses. Keith didn't give them much to work with so they started rambling about defense like he'd added profound insight.

I don't want to sound unsympathetic towards Keith; I just want his media skills to represent himself as well as his play does.

I thought Keith was great! He could obviously use some polishing, but I liked his "yes sir" answer to one of the first questions. He is clearly just a kid, though he is starting to play like a man on the floor.

Keith was fine, he was himself, he was polite, and he said the right things.

I am sure he will become more polished and I am sure he be interviewed many more times this year.

What a joke of a thread. SMU fans can be very petty at times.

Scratching my head a little bit. I didn't ready anything petty about the original poster's comments. Thought he was very respectful to KF.

He looked a little uncomfortable, like maybe the first time he had been interviewed on live tv.

wasn't that bad though

Public speaking was the very last class I took at SMU. Wish it had been the first

KF has the best game of his career and a thread is started about how he should improve his post game interview skills. That's not petty?

He seemed very nervous. I am sure he enjoys the pressure of the game more than the interview. He sure is looking better on the court.

Incredibly petty. The OP is probably a *cough*.
