*** Official IOWA STATE vs #14 Texas Tech Game(Day) Thread ***

That is true. However, it is a little worrisome that TJ came into the season thinking he had shooting. He brought in Grill and Gabe for shooting and neither is near good enough. Even Brockington is not good enough from 3.

He's got to identify guys that can make 3s in the portal. It doesn't need to be Hoiball, but there's got to be something.

I don't know that he thought that. I think he was going after guys for their defensive ability mostly.

 

[Blandboy]

this game seems like it's 2-hours long

 

[CycloneErik]

Definitely the most offensively challenged team I've seen. With that, not the most fun of styles to watch.

 

[cyclones500]

My question is when he has 5 guys that are working well together he pulls one out of rotation and it all goes to Hell! If it is working leave it alone.

Because he's "clever." Or "Strategic." Or something.

I admit, sometimes, it works. Many times, not.

 

[KCyclone2010]

I’m sorry but this is all TJ. Totally outclassed in every sense.

 

[GTO]

Yeah but I bricked it off the front iron.

Stop it! You're getting TJ turned on.

 

[Walden4Prez]

We find new ways to miss shots. I have seen basketballs do things that physics says aren’t possible all year with this team.

 

[cyclone1975]

If a few guys foul out will TJ play with only 4 and say “My team is on the floor”

 

[DSM4Cy]

THIS Tech team could win the national title.

 

[sbmomma21]

Uh i haven’t seen a single GD thing work tonight.

But I’m not sure if that makes the rotations look better lol

Lol Not just tonight...but it wasn't too horrid at first. But someone will be hot and he pulls them!! I get it.

 

[ISU_Guy]

Here is who I predict back for next year: Complete rebuild.
I can't see how Jackson, walker and enurura return after what I have seen the past few games.

Hunter
Grill
King
Jones

Eli King
Tamin Lipsey
Demarion Watson

 

[JHUNSY]

True to my word, took a shot of Jameson, and it was delicious.

Yep

 

[WastedTalent]

I don't know that he thought that. I think he was going after guys for their defensive ability mostly.

Which is odd, because he's never been a defensive guy at any of his previous jobs.

 

[Blandboy]

missed the goal tend

 

[SDClone]

I hope they at least make it to 40

 

[Prone2Clone]

No expectations. Expectations. No expectations.

What a season.

 

[quasistellar]

Refs need to swallow whistles at this point so this can just get over with

 

[jctisu]

People don’t like honesty. Wanna pretend we are something we aren’t.

There are people that need to be more positive around here 100% but there are others that also need to pump the sunshine brakes when a night like this or Oklahoma State happens.

Like you said, like most things in life more times than not a bit of both is true. We are in the tournament and we look like we have never played the game of basketball tonight.

 

[Trice]

At the half

UNC 33
Virginia 13

So it could be worse

I've changed our opponent tonight to Virginia. At present the score is

ISU 32
Virginia 34
