Game 30: Texas at Texas Tech, 8 PM, ESPN

[Tommy Nobis 905]

Night games in Lubbock scare you to death

[Dahobbs 17534]

Shaka is going to tell the guys to try harder now. 

[dcar00 14181]

how fucking bad is this.  no real reason to watch anymore.  its over.

[GHOSTUSER 361]

This is terrible. 

[GreenspointTexas 9600]

Hire Beard already and be done with it

4 points in the last 8 minutes

[Goo Punch 4275]

jarrett culver is one of those guys who's a total stud in college, and who then has a long, really solid NBA career, but because he gets picked 6th or something he's forever labeled as someone who didn't live up to expectations. 

[dcar00 14181]

meanwhile we are passing around milk and cookies and drawing + signs on our wrists.

[GHOSTUSER 361]

Fucking Mooney. 

[Horn80 6118]

Shaka is building the program, brick by brick.

[dcar00 14181]

coleman is trying.

 

[Nolacycling 893]

It's Lou Reeds b'day. Seems appropriate somehow.

[LTtxfan 49173]

Shaka calls a timeout.... and then the Horns play worse.  It's obvious which coach tonight gets more from his players.

[Pam Cummings 9640]

Don't feel too bad chaps. Tech is a great basketball team.

Perfect description 

[Billy Pilgrim 1960]

Our zone looks awful- we’re a step slow closing out on guys so they can drive or shoot. Just keep playing man

This is basically my take on him as well unless he really develops that jump shot.

[Tommy Nobis 905]

If tech was great they’d be winning by 30 with the way we’re shooting. Fuck off.

[VinyVango 689]

Gotta work off the Coleman drive... he has the hot hand and desire ... if they decide to shut that down maybe he can drop it off for some better shots to Ramey and the others

Tech us a great defensive team, I’ll give them that. Their offense is only slightly better than ours

I totally agree but it will take more money than UT has ever spent for a basketball coach.  Shaka's buyout, Beard's buyout,  and he's going to have to be paid a huge salary to leave Tech. It's not that we can't afford it, it's just whether CDC will do it. I'd say it's money well spent. 

[BoosterAndrews 113]

Coleman is only good at ball handling, he's not a scorer and his mind is slow.  Hayes might be the clumsiest big man I've ever seen on the 40 acres.  Dude is so fuckin awkward on the floor.  He's also a giant pussy that can only dunk.

what.  we aren't cursed we have a shitty coach.

[Billy Pilgrim 1960]

Why do we set screens if no one uses them

[Nolacycling 893]

because they're coached to do so.

somehow only down 9

Good one tech tard

[Goo Punch 4275]

major props to coleman there. as he was dribbling out the clock i said aloud, "please don't just pull up...", fully expecting him to just pull up and brick a three. great lookfr coleman for an in-rhythm three to change it from a 12 point deficit to a 9 point deficit, which is anything but insignificant. good play.

tech should be embarrassed that its only 9.  good news for them is we can actually shoot worse.

i've seen several mocks that have going between picks 6-13. he's gotta he gone after this year. at least we as fans should all assume so.

[Victor Lazlo 1776]

Call me crazy, but this is still a winnable game. 

Our shots start dropping, and anything can happen.

You're only up 9 at home, with a sold out crowd, against a 16-13 basketball team (shooting 29 % from the floor) with a lame duck coach.

Shut up

Febres and Ramey will have to shoot lights out.

You're not crazy. This is the textbook definition of a trap game and our second half defense can be lax sometimes.

What if Tech was up by 1 more point? Would you change your mind? Pleeeease?

The key is Coleman he has to get penetration because we have no idea how to run screens or cut to create passing lanes.  Shaka is like the buzzword marketing guy.  you just look at him after he's done talking and go "really?"

Probably not, pretty hard to watch a Big 12 team tied for 1st in the conference struggle to kick the shit out of an average basketball team at home. Wins are wins though.
