*** Official IOWA STATE vs #23 Texas Tech Game(Day) Thread ***

[Cyinthenorth]

Lol this team is horribly coached. The talent isn’t top notch, but there’s enough talent to at least be competitive. The coaching is beyond horrible.

I respectfully disagree. I think the talent deficit hides what could be bad coaching, but it's too hard to tell

I just looked at NCAA D-I stats. We are, miraculously, not the worst 3-point shooting team in the country. Difficult to believe after that half.

Isn't Oklahoma State even worse this year?

This game feels just like the Baylor game.. completely tank in second half.

 

[CYDJ]

0-13 from 3 and down 6. Feels like this game is still winnable even with as bad as they played. They need to come out in control in the second half and get some interior looks.

I'd be happier if they were down 4, gosh darn! Stupid end to the half 2 games in a row. ugh!

 

[madguy30]

OUTSTANDING defensive game plan today. We’ve caused a ton of turnovers.
We’ve gotten open looks, we start hitting some and win going away.

Tech isn't exactly 1990 UNLV.

So does Steve make halftime adjustments or does he look at the scoreboard and tell his team “We’re still in this, keep it it up just like we’re doing”?

 

[MeowingCows]

It’s probably close between us and Oklahoma State

Even they shot >40% from 3 today. That seemed to keep them in the BU game.

...until they gave up 50 in the second half, anyway.

I don't think Tech is as imposing as Baylor so it won't be as bad but the dribble, dribble, try to drive into a crowd and dish offense likely won't make it easy.

I wish Tyrese would have thrown that last inbound pass to Prohm

If he would have hit him in the face though, he would have bit his tongue off since it’s always sticking of his mouth.

 

[NWICY]

Well we are hanging close, hit some shots and maybe we can get a W. Prohm can't put the ball in the hoop for them.

 

[Cyfanisu]

Tech sleepwalking. Probably turn it up in the second half.

I’m sure Chris beard will make some great halftime adjustments. Prohm on the other hand....

 

[Prone2Clone]

Are we the worst in P6?

No. Texas A&M was two from the bottom. Virginia, Okie State, Illinois, Rutgers were among those I saw below ISU. I'm sure there were more.

 

[moforisu]

We look lost as always with no help from the bench. I've been on CSP side but ticket sales will bottom out next year. Will Pollard let that happen?

 

[stormchaser2014]

Thoughts and feelings.

 

[exCYtable]

I can't be done with Prohm fast enough. Every halfcourt possession looks exactly the same. One ball screen and then dribble around and shoot a three-pointer, which we suck at. So much standing around! He's honestly the worst coach I've ever seen.

 

[Hoggins]

Fire Prohm

 

[Macloney]

Oh cool, I see that @jcisuclones and @Cy$ are still obsessed with me. #notflattered

 

[Cyfanisu]

Aren’t prohms recruiting classes in the top 30?

 

[MLawrence]

All right, only down six! Still in it!!!

 

[blutarsky]

I’m sure Chris beard will make some great halftime adjustments. Prohm on the other hand....

Any bets that our first few shots of the 2nd half are missed threes?
