Very big challenge for the Horns tonight. They will need a big shooting night, and tough defense for 40 minutes to win. And a little luck. Like ksu having an off night. If we get off to a good start that might quiet the crowd which would help. Go Horns!!
four points in the last 5 minutes of the half. Not a great first half. two shot clock violations. awful shooting. But we're tied anyway. Just turn it up a bit in the 2nd half.
Roach needs to stop turning it over. Needs to pass; not dribble so much. Bamba needs to get involved. almost at the 15 minute mark and we've scored 3 points so far. ugh.
Six minutes without a bucket, we are running the statue offense. half court offense is nothing. No one in motion, guy with the ball dribbling around aimlessly. We have the easiest offense in the B 12 to defend.
K-State could go out for pizza and the score would be the same when they returned. Lethargic doesn't begin to describe this effort. Somebody at ESPN better be getting his resume updated for putting this on TV.
He has looked totally disinterested for the last month. The NBA won't have to worry about him killing his adrenal glands
Roach fouled out. Mo strikes me as a moody teenager. When he’s hyped up and playing with good energy, hes pretty much unstoppable. He looks like a 20 pt 20 board 5 block night guy thats going to get drafted in the first 3 picks. The other 1/2 of the time he looks like he’s thinking about snacks and Xbox.
The worst offensive game I've seen them play since Tennessee state. Meanwhile, ksu has scored 11 straight.
Give me the ball. I can come as close to hitting a three from my sofa in Houston as anybody on the court. Being 2 for 20 from 3 is one thing, but all air balls and front rim is ridiculous. Maybe we need the return of Everett Gay and his football teammates to embarrass Smart and this group the way they did Weltlich
I didn't expect Texas to win. I predicted the loss. But my god. The inept offense was beyond the pall. Shaka's offensive philosophy is what??? Really, what is the offensive plan?
Take Billie Powers $4 million a year for five years and retire? His coaching is as offensive as I've seen around Travis County in a long time. At least have them ready to play. If the opponent is more talented so be it, but give some effort.
28% from the floor, 11% from 3-point range. 48 points. There is no doubt it's the coach; either terrible recruiting (not bringing in shooters) or coaching (no scheme) or both.
Times change, and the game definitely changes, but my uncle played for Hank Iba at Oklahoma A&M on some pretty damn good teams for that day and time. Iba made them find "their spot" on the floor, wherever it may be, then make 50 shots in a row from that spot before they could leave the practice court. He told them that when the game was on the line, he wanted five guys he knew could hit a bucket from "their spot".
I haven’t read the thread but regardless, a few observations: Where is Shaka’s passion? Where’s the emotion? He seems passive and too controlled. Perhaps the team is reflecting his personality. They certainly lack the killer instinct. Osetkowski can’t shoot worth a crap from the outside. Period. What coach let’s him continue to try? Give Febres a bigger role. I think the kid can shoot. If he took the shots that Osetkowski is taking, we would probably score 9-12 more points a game.
The 28.2 FG% is the second-lowest total in the Shaka Smart era. Texas shot 26% in China vs. Washington. No other games below 30%.
