Granted, we were at full strength when we lost to NJIT and EMU, but this crop of freshman took longer to grab the system.

Has John given up on anyone yet? That was one of only two of my real criticisms of him when he was here. He just straight gave up on kids if they didn't fit his mold. (Not that other coaches don't do this, I just noticed is glaringly with him.)

Yeah, I am really unimpressed by Baylor. They have some good shooters, but so much of what they do seems to be predicated on getting the whistle. (This has been true very time I've watched them.)

Also I don't know why Isaiah Austin is dressed up like he's still a basketball player and allowed to do shoot arounds.

theyve been a lot better since their 3pt% and ft% have gone up. they were real bad at both for nonconference and early conferency play. their rebounding and defense has always been pretty good, we'll see. i just wish we had that kansas win but we can still beat em away i guess

It's a lot easier to get shots when you get away with contact.

I mean I knew Baylor was going to be trouble for us. They're long and can gently caress the press in the same way Texas did (they remind me a lot of Texas); add to that our effort isn't there and it wasn't like this was a surprise for me, I just loathe Scott Drew and also how woefully inconsistent the officiating in this conference is.

Like the Big East was like a loving Prison League, but you generally knew that they were going to let the game get physical and let a lot of poo poo go. Like just stupid poo poo. I watch a lot of basketball and I haven't seen three 3*second calls all loving season, and they called three against us in 3 minutes? Eat a goddamn dick.

If the Big XII wants to be a real conference, its time they get actual officials. Inconsistency crew to crew and within crews is astounding and bad for the game.

I think that's just a college basketball problem in general.

It's more pronounced in the Big XII than it ever was in the Big East. Like, part of the problem is you have officials who aren't used to teams/games and so its hard for them to know how things work and even harder for players. The Big East was bad, but at least we knew what to expect with each crew and they knew the players, coaches and teams well. I'm also continually amused at how much more physical the Big East was and laugh at how most of the Big XII teams wouldn't have been able to survive it.

If I ruled the world, the major changes I would make to officiating would be setting a cap on how many games they can work in a week and mandating that each conference have its own crews.

Game related: Nino Williams is very good and I love Gipson, but Foster makes such a difference.

I personally really like Bruce (full disclosure: former Illinois assistant Gary Nottingham is a longtime family friend.) I just don't think he's going to ever turn the corner at K State.

But let me illustrate my larger point about the consistency issues, right there.

Gipson has held on virtually every runnout that has happened near him, and the finally call it 30 minutes into the game. How's he supposed to adapt to them suddenly calling something he's done all game?
