  1. Onyema is meh as is and RT has to ask him to play 3x more minutes tonight than he’s conditioned for.
  2. I would say it’s not hard to make wide open 3s, but we make it look pretty challenging
  3. Having to play Brock/Mitchell/Oyema at the same time to rebound just fucks us everywhere else. Not enough consistent offense and can’t switch on d. Oh well, at least we won last night and can use today for an SOS boost. Season starts when Disu is back.
  4. I don’t remember the last time we started a bigger liability on defense than Max
  5. They’re not dissimilar from most other big 12 schools there, but those other schools don’t have thousands of fans buying t shirts to wear once a year. I agree that it’s the underdog/favorite angle Campbell is hammering as a battleground for his culture.
  6. ISU is a bizarre fan base. About 20% of them treat our game like Michigan Ohio State. No other H8 fan base has anywhere near the over the top obsession with us. Some sort of Hermanesque reinforcement of their underdog culture juxtaposed to us? Anyways, the other 80% were fantastic
  7. Rig 12 refs tried to rip us off but we won anyways. Drinking in the parking lot until the last ISU fan cleared out was absolutely amazing. Hook ‘em.
  8. Definitely a few more lotto tickets in the 2024 class than the 3 or so we’ve had per class in most years. Pierce just had shit luck for a few years - and the 2021 class blew. Simeon Woods, Baty, Kelley, Jones, Halpin, Tucker, Cox were all big swings. For every few misses you get a Madden, Witt, Gaspo.
  9. You don't get the Texas athletes with the KSU staff
  10. Stanford has a better court 1-2, TCU is on our level there, but no one has our depth
  11. Oregon has been a stepping stone recently and maybe Lanning wants back into the SEC. DeBoer would be wise to cash in on the success of the best QB he’ll ever coach in college.
  12. I figured Dykes would be the coach to try to abandon the run from the opening kick, throw it 60 times, and make our secondary win the game. I suppose they had some success on the ground, but we’re not executing at a high enough level to keep pace with even an average passing attack if they push the ball downfield all night
  13. Totally. Woldeab over Learner Tien today. Just an outrageously stacked lineup 1-6.
  14. DH or let him battle with O’Dowd. I tend to think the upside from Cummings/Belyeu/Sanders is higher than Storm anyways
  15. It continues to feel like we have too many starter quality outfielders to move JT from first
  16. He’s horrendous, but an interim AD announcing the firing of an assistant coach mid-season has disaster written all over it. I imagine they’ll regret alienating their most successful coach in school history
  17. Sam (read defense) lost b2b vs 1st year starters. Last 2 years were first year starters on both sides. Gabriel is a 5th year cfb starter, though I don't think he's ever played a road game in a stadium bigger than 60k
  18. Some 5 stars bust and some 2 stars get drafted. More news at 5
  19. I specifically clarified that right now half the drives are duds. I expect more consistency, but I also expect a handful of more talented defensive coordinators than any we’ve faced YTD with hyper-specific game plans to give Quinn trouble.
  20. Turnover margin and 2-3 chunk plays per game have gotten us out of the inconsistency hole. New clock rules would’ve been a godsend in the past for our sputtering second halves. If we don’t get hot starts in conference, Quinn is going to get 7-8 drives a game to work with and right now we can count on at least half of those being duds.
  21. Park downtown on the other side of the highway. Plenty of free parking. A handful of sports bars over there to watch the 2:30 games. It’s a 25 min walk to the stadium, there’s a shuttle if you’d rather
  22. UT website shows me no available tickets for Saturday. I'm sure they'll announce the sellout in the morning.
