3:38 to go up 1 with the ball

Doesn't it just come down to whether you want oscar as our coach or not?  I do not.  That is my position, the rest is academic.

Not 100%. I don't want oscar as our coach. But he isn't 100% to blame for the loss last night. Other variables:

1) Aforementioned poor officiating.
2) Academy awards to all of the Tech floppers (is related to #1).
3) Where the heck was Wes going?
4) We've improved tremendously in FT shooting (could be coaching, could be individual initiative, could be both) - except in crucial situations at the end of the game!
5) Why not put put Maurice in when you have Wade & DJamer with 3 (and 4) fouls each? This was a bad coaching move.
6) We failed to rebound on Tech's missed FT.

All of this adds up (I liked MIR's point - none of this is mutually exclusive) to our team has not learned how to close out close games (maybe we have at home?) on the road. Period. We need to learn how to do that if we're going to the torn-a-ment.

Forgot who said it earlier, but I could tell we wouldn't hold on once we missed the front end of the 1 and 1. 

How do we match up with Baylor? (maybe I don't want to hear the answer . . . )

I'm less mad now. Looked like Kam traveled at the end. Oh well.

Do you mean Barry? He did, but no call. Followed by another no call on the hit on the head.

Yeah, that's what I meant.

Yeah, he definitely did. Saw a few tweets slowing it down last night, pretty obvious travel actually, but can't find any of them. Can someone else?

I wish the firebruceweber.com was still working......that was such an enjoyable site

I think we get killed by Baylor (figuratively speaking, not Patrick Dennehy speaking)

Pretty much where I'm at.

I think we can beat Baylor, and if I do my K-State basketball mood will be positive again.

[renocat]

I agree about beating Bears.  There first two.wins were not by much.

[ksupamplemousse]

I'm afraid that Baylor is going to be pretty focused after the beating they just took. The only times we ever seem to beat them is when they have below average effort. Can't imagine that will be the case this weekend.

[pissclams]

imagine if we had used our embarrassingly bad non-con to develop guys like maurice, would have been cool

[kim carnes]

Hey guys, the players kind of suck and we don't have enough serviceable front court players.  You know who that falls on?  The mf'ing coach.

lol at breaking your personal property because of K-State bruceketball at Texas Tech.

As always meow meow you're the best person on this blog and the gold standard we achieve to be. I obviously didn't intend to break the door of my fireplace, dipshit.

[TheProdigiousTalent]

The solution seems pretty obvious - we need a coaching closer who can deal with these tricky end-of-game situations that require lots of back-and-forth between players and coaches, complicated scenario planning, not getting technicals, etc.  B dubs just needs to pass the clipboard to the Mariano Rivera of college hoops coaching.

That use to be Brad Underwood for Frank.

maybe, i don't know, just relax, and don't get worked up all the rough ridin' time about things that don't matter.  or do, it's whatever.

I liked the looks we took at the end of the KU and TTU games.     I seem to remember a lot of dumbass endings to games in the years past.

I get worked up all the time about things that don't matter? Nice to know and thanks for the advice, life's best lessons always come from anonymous internet trolls.

I for once want to see a team get a lead, and extend that lead to a sizeable marging, as if to say  we show to mercy.

We had that lead at 7, and melted away......
We had that lead against Texas, and almost melted away.....
