Man, is Texas even a tournament team? I guess they will get a lot of chances to get good wins but man, that's 3 home losses, really poorly coached, and I'm not sure they have more than 4 or 5 wins left in that schedule. Isu game down there is a must win for them.
I don't know. They aren't very well coached and lack any kind of structure.
IMO they have 3 guys who I think are GREAT players and seem to do the right things on the floor. Mitchell is legit and, more importantly, isn't out of control. Disu is who they should be trying to run a lot of their offense through. Posts, some pick and rolls, etc but he is their (and has been) their most efficient player. Shockingly their guards often don't even TRY to get him the ball.
Weaver is an animal. That dude played some of the best perimeter defense I've seen out of any Big 12 player. He had that one really bad turnover, but general he's just a dog who hustles, plays within himself, and defends/rebounds hard.
Hunter and Abmas are out of control, unreliable, and don't seem to understand anything about the game of basketball. How Hunter thinks constantly standing around or gravitating to the 3 point line is a good utilization of his floor time is beyond me. Why his coach leaves him in the game when he does this is even more befuddling. If you simply key on Hunter he's almost always doing the wrong thing. He has a great first step, has access to the lane, yet routinely kicks out before making the defense collapse. He's robbing himself of lane opportunities and an ability to make his teammates wide open. The rest of the time he just stands there and its really hilarious when he keeps calling for the ball, without even moving, and really without being open.
They have the ability and talent to be (at worst) a 4 seed. But they lack the headiness, coaching direction, and intangibles to be anything more than a bubble team. Horns down.
