We were OK in noncon but aren't probably going to be as good of a 3pt shooting team in conference play. Need to get that fixed and we're in this one.

I don’t know how it will land with this thread, but something that I have to say about TJ‘s coaching is that Porter was constantly just working the officials something tj doesn’t do and we maybe get some calls if he would just start twirling the officials more. He doesn’t have to yell but porter got a ton of calls because he was doing this
Gilbert is terrible running the point. He just dribbles into trouble and loses it almost every time.
I've seen us beat "one of the best teams in the country" more times than I have fingers, toes and apendages. If we are in Hilton, we always have a chance.
Our 3 most important scorers went a combined 8/27 for 22 points. If even one of them shoots well we may have won that game. Unfortunately our 3 best scorers are Keshon who is inconsistent still but can be amazing, Milan who is a true freshman, and Tamin who is improved but isn't really a natural scorer. It's going to be a bit of a roller coaster in this league especially on the road but like the fact that we hung in there.
Encouraged by Ward and Rob around the basket and Watson gave some good minutes. Honestly looking at the box score it is shocking we were in the game.

That and just don't come out of the gates ice cold. Honestly after the first 10 minutes the offense didn't look that bad. Not as good as it did crushing bad teams, but it was serviceable against a good team.
It’s been talked about for 3 years, I am guilty as well but the fact is nobody knows if it means anything or has any merit. I lean to trust TJ is doing everything he can to help the team win.
Lipsey and MM had rough games. OU shot out of their asses. ISU will be fine. OU played well and still struggled with unranked ISU at home.
Holy triple negative, Batman! I think you had one more than you intended.
And they got some good looks to start the game. I'd like to see the "What If" if that first Milan 3 doesn't rattle out. It looked good.
Especially when you cannot shoot the 3 well. Ward and Jones were great
Guards were like 9 of 27 with one 3
that's what happens when you insist on double teaming the other teams players that aren't worth a double team
Could have played better but I’m actually feeling like this team has some salt
Yup....somebody has to make some shots. Mom will but it might not be a lot this year. Not sure we got anybody else you have to respect from 3.
I thought the refs were fine. Not counting the last couple of minutes, I believe more fouls had been called on OU.
Finally got a lead, then couldn't make a shot.
Basing an entire year's worth of analysis on only 1 conference game played? For shame!
