Jerome Tang's sideline antics are just as annoying as Bruce Weber's.

Baylor has been an outstanding defensive team for years and it seemed like they rolled over in the second half. Didn't have their normal fight.

It'll be interesting seeing Baylor go forward without him on the bench.

TCU's fast-break should have come with an NC-17 rating

KState with the dub

 

[CascadeClone]

Not sure which is more shocking- baylor at 0-3 or kst at 3-0.

I had kst scrabbling with wv for last. So much for that.

KSU is going to be a problem.

KSU is going to be a problem.

We are going to be an even bigger problem for this league with TJ at the helm.

At this point, I think it's reasonable to wonder if Tang was the real magic behind Baylors remarkable success in recent years. Kinda like how Iowa hires Lick away from Butler and instead of fading into obscurity, a few years later Brad Stevens has them playing in the NCG.

KSU is going to be a problem.

Yep, but so are we. I like both of our trajectories a lot. Difference is, I think Otz has strong roots to Ames and will hopefully stay. Tang isn’t as rooted in Manhattan.

ISU, KSU, and KU atop of the conference. Did he turn down other jobs before this one? Seems weird with the success Baylor has had that someone like a North Texas didn't offer him.

Eh let’s pump the breaks on that one. People said the same thing about Adams at Tech when Beard left. Well they aren’t looking so hot thus far.

They play worse defense than Iowa.

 

[awd4cy]

They play worse defense than Iowa.

Not true.

 

[dahliaclone]

KSU is going to be a problem.

They’re good. But they play zero defense. None.

 

[madguy30]

They play worse defense than Iowa.

Adj. def. ratings say different.

 

[cyatheart]

Yeah, k state will be interesting....people say they don't play d, not so sure about that....they aren't elite defensively, but they aren't that bad, they just play fast...they got two huge road wins anyway. Can't take that away from them,

 

[awd4cy]

They’re good. But they play zero defense. None.

This is false.

 

[ClonesTwenty1]

Not true.

So the last two games letting up 100+ to Texas and almost 100 again to Baylor are flukes?

They play fast. This isn’t hard. They have a better adj d than Iowa. Just because they play fast and have more possessions doesn’t mean their defense is non existent.

We shall see as the season continues, but letting up nearly back to back 100 point games in college is like unheard of.
