We weren't hitting shots at all in the first half, and A&M had a ton more foul shots than we did.  Honestly, I think we could have beat them by 15.  Either way, we are winning and doing it whether pretty or ugly.  That has a lot to say about the team when we can win and play ugly.  Hopefully we can continue this streak and maybe sneak a spot inside the bubble.  Don't lose faith in a young team.  They are gaining the confidence that none of us thought they had.  

Honestly if this was last year I would say we would lose to an Iowa State by 7 after winning a few games.  This team is finding ways to win.  I think we will be ok IMO.

This team has some talent, but mostlly they have some athleticism with a few talented players.  I would like to think they have learned, and are now figuring out how they have to play every game to be successful.  If they have that ingrained, then the inconsistency will fade and the team will maximize what they can achieve, talentwise.  I have to say, I think we are seeing the kind of team, and the type of play Frank wants from this team.  Many of the players have progressed, probably most obvious in DK suddenly showing some low post moves.  Along with that, the players are developing some confidence rooted in knowing what they have to do.  All good teams have that as a prereq.  I have to give credit to the coaching staff.  As uneven as this team has been early, they now look to be gaining some consistency in play, along with some of the player development.  Perhaps Frank is also developing as a coach.  It appears as if his message is getting through.
