resurgence explanations
« on: March 01, 2011, 12:07:44 AM »
• Jake stepping up to another level
• JHR's emergence
• New offense (cutting down turnovers, getting better shots)
• CK's return and (very) recent wake-up call
• Improved play of Shane, Irving, Doc and Nick
• Frank and staff's coaching
• Were never really that bad having lost to Duke with Irving and to Florida in their home state. Slide looked worse because of suspensions to Jake and CK and front loaded Big 12 schedule.

v. UNLV
@OSU
v. CU

prob could have beaten either ATM or MU, one of them. 

who cares?  it has made the climb super sweet.

No one wants a piece of the Cats.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Pretty good synopsis there. EVERY KSU Cat deserves a lot of love tonight, but man, CK was AWESOME, played like a B12 1st teamer tonight , great to see him play up to his potential like that.

Well, in our losses early, we had inevitable collapses after getting up 5-7 points on the road. Lately, we've gotten up 5-7 and just kept it there without playing outside of our abilities or getting sped up.

No kidding, he does seem to be good for a few dumb fouls though after he gets beat.

pullen is shooting about 60% from three going back to the ku game.  that plus they're defending almost as well as they did in the first half of the uf game without having stretches where they defend like the last 10 minutes of the uf game.

don't want to give him that much credit.  but he could become a really good defender, if he wants to.

they seemed like honest young mistakes.  He was helping over too far or didn't realize UT has some amazing shooters from distance.  I was frustrated that he should have learned some of these lessons, but he has gone miles in his growth and has lots of potential.

consistency, in most of those losses we played pretty well for long stretches.

what are you using again to compile your numbers and output creation?  I know you said you have used excel in the past for some stuff.

Just excel. Then just doing a screen cap and cleaning it up in photoshop to give a decent looking graphic.
