Southern’s Roman Banks, Champion Baptist coach ‘clear the air’

BATON ROUGE, Louisiana  -- The head coaches for the Southern and Champion Baptist College men’s basketball teams said Thursday there are no bad feelings in the wake of the Jaguars’ 116-12 victory Monday night.

FoxSports.com had quoted Tigers coach Eric Capaci as saying he had “no idea why” Jaguars coach Roman Banks would have pressed deep into such a lopsided game and “try to destroy us like that.’

But, Capaci said in a telephone interview Thursday that his comments were misconstrued and he and Banks have “a great relationship.”

“I was not angry or upset,” Capaci said. “In fact we had a great conversation before the game and after the game. During the course of a game like that when your team is being pressed and trapped, it gets frustrating. But I respect coach’s decision. I’m not upset at all.”
