I'd prefer Frank's shitty coaching.

It wasn't the switch to zone, it was Southwells inability to find Teahan that was the issue.

It perfectly coincided with the collapse of our massive run and immediate return to futility in nearly every aspect of the game, so...seems like a solid talking point.

I hate the rough ridin' zone. I don't think Frank really buys into it. It's not a game changing defense for us.

kstate will go undefeated in the ood is the talking point.

Teahan first 3 was zone, 2nd was man

I don't see the thinking in zone when Trob is out of the game and KU's only spot up shooter in

Our "bigs" were fantastic . . . 6 for 19 from the floor.

going zone was bad choice IMO. On ball pressure was creating more turn overs allowing us to get in a flow. Terrible to move away from a defense predicated on doing what is working for you. No way Southie should have been in one second over Nino in this game. learned that after South's first appearance.

Teahan first 3 was zone.

it was when teahan's man got overaggressive/hyped by the run and doubled down trying to get a steal.

Southwell is the very definition of deer in the headlights.

Frank's "everybody run to the ball" defense is the perpetual 3 point wet dream of the spot up 3 point shooter.

looks like a combo of playing nino and going zone, but mainly going zone on the wrong possession. Clearly the deciding factor.

CHONGS · « **Reply #16 on:** January 04, 2012, 09:15:11 PM »

probably should have started a poll, damn.

maybe it was the lack of emotion from frank tonight?

Losing to the worse KU team since Roy's first year.

ku punching spradling in the face, releford being a murderer's bastard spawn with small eyes, the incompetence of ku's guards and how ugly they all are are better talking points.

NO

Putting Nino on him was the first time he stopped scoring

We played soft for long stretches, didn't rebound, and didn't hit shots. It was a terrible performance overall with a few bright stretches from Jamar, McGruds, and JO. I guess I'll even give Nino a bit.

The rebounding was just pathetic though. Embarrassing. We can't win that way.
