never really liked the guy to begin with (looks like a douche), and his cheapshot on PJ last game just capped it off.

I would disagree with some of this. No comment on his appearance as that is irrelevant. That screen was not a cheap shot. He was set and did not lift elbows and forearms. Just a good hard screen from a guy who is probably 70 lbs bigger. There is no better sound in hoops than that of the air rushing out of your opponents chest and the sack of potatoes like thud when his limp body hits the floor. If your team doesn't like it they should call out the screen. Krabenhoft at Wisky a few years back was a cheap shot.
 
I don't dislike Costello, but I do think his antics are dumb. I do however, dislike that he gets away with a lot of fouls, but that's the ref's fault not his.
 
He's a little over the top, but he's really turned into a solid player. Has worked hard and really cares. I'd take him on Purdue.

Not a fan mainly because he argues just about every call with the ref in a fairly disrespectful way but never seems to get a T. Have to respect his development as a player though.
 
The infancy stages of a Bill Laimbeer type player. Decent skill but to have any success at the next level may need to play enforcer and yes, I would take him on my team too.
 
Not a cheap shot. As mentioned above, Krabbensnatch's elbow on Lewjack was one of the cheapest shots in the history of the B1G and of course no foul was called.

I didn't like it, but as others have said, it was a fair play. I thought the fact that a Purdue player didn't warn PJ was more of a cheap shot.
 
Does anyone have a snip it of that pick set by Costello? I thought at first his arm came up, but I never saw the replay. If you all are saying it was legit..........then I have no problem with it. I know you mofos wouldn't lie LOL!

He's annoying, but so was Brian Cardinal to the rest of the league I'm sure.

Plus, Costello obviously cares a lot more about winning than AJ does, because he yells a lot and has that "really intense" game face on all the time.
 
Only dislike him because he plays for m$u. But, would love to have him on our team.
