Dooley expresses regret over
heated remark
A well-respected Kansas assistant
basketball coach with past ties to East Carolina apologized Friday for
cursing at a Nevada player following the 20th-ranked Wolf Pack's 72-70 win
over the Jayhawks on Thursday night.
Joe Dooley, East Carolina's head coach
from 1995-99, yelled at Nevada star Nick Fazekas as the two teams shook
hands following the game in Lawrence, KS.
"I responded in a negative manner to
something that was said to me following the game," Dooley said in a
statement released by the Kansas athletic department. "I certainly apologize to the Nevada
program, and this is not the manner in which Kansas basketball should be
represented."
Dooley,
57-52 during his four-year stint at the helm of the ECU program, is the only
coach among the Pirates' last ten to have left Greenville with a winning
record. In a controversial move, he was fired by former Pirates athletic
director Mike Hamrick.
Fazekas scored a game-high 35 points to
lead the Wolf Pack (4-0) over the Jayhawks (2-3) in a wild finish.
"He has apologized to us publicly and
privately, and we accepted his apologies," Nevada coach Mark Fox said in a
statement.
"We emphasize that Nick Fazekas was
celebrating with a teammate and did not say anything to Joe Dooley. It
simply was an emotional moment after a hard-fought game. We wish Kansas the
best of luck this season."
With less than 5 seconds remaining,
Kansas' Jeff Hawkins drove to the basket but got caught up in traffic near
the baseline and dished to C.J. Giles in the lane. The 6-foot-11 Fazekas
knocked the ball away as Giles went up to shoot, and time ran out.
Jayhawks coach Bill Self stormed onto
the court, demanding a foul be called, but to no avail. He said later that
"obviously, in a hotly contested game like this one, emotions were high
after the game."
