UNC didn’t NEED that win, but it damn sure would have helped their cause… This could have been a resume builder for them
Pretty crazy from being the # 1 ranked team in the Nation to being on the bubble and not even sure they gettin in - -I think they are o-8 versus quad 1's - maybe that was another one of these pre tenders..
To me it looks like Bacot has taken a step back- he gets bullied around quite a bit , just doesn't even look as good as he did last ur , still a pretty decent player but something missing
They don't have a Juan. They have mad bombers all trying to make isolation plays. Caleb shoots from 30 feet too much, and Davis doesn't pass the ball like he did last year. Bacot looks disinterested to me.
@jayballer67 So, we could be victorious with Vyctorius?
Win tonite, and we're back in first.

Can Tech make it back to back win against top 15 opponents tonight. I yes the hell with the short horns!!
We're all Red Raiders tonight. Watching Miami pop UNC on their home court. Miami looks legit. UNC looks like a team headed to the NIT.

I know some probably won't agree with this , I understand but I just hope and I don't think he will - but even with Udeh progression a little I just hope doesn't do something rsh and yank KJ from the starter spot - - -at least at this point and replace with Udeh. That would just be wrong in so many ways.
KJ has busted his ass to earn that spot , and has really done nothing to lose it. - KJ can guard just about all 5 positions- - he will score some points for you - - at this point s many as Udeh will , he dives on the floor doesn't mind getting dirty can block some shots --- just flat out hustles. - - If something like that were to happen could screw him up big time. - - Not saying down the line some sure maybe Udeh get's the start, even if he doesn't gonna get plenty of minutes the way it is right now, actually benefits- -helps give KJ a break/rest.
I just think at the present that move could only be a negative move and in the end mess with chemistry. Again not saying if Udeh continues to improve then a little bit then you do what needs done. - -Right now Udeh not quite there
I don't think anyone is saying bench KJ. Even if the minutes go 50/50, KJ has earned the right to start.
@benshawks08 said in Is this the moment?:
@BeddieKU23 Totally agree. If we are making comparisons to last year's team, Udeh is the Remy of this year. The guy that comes in off the bench and forces a defense to play differently.
We've all seen, especially with our freshmen, the difference between how players play when they are thinking vs reacting. Having a game changer like Udeh come off the bench forces the defense of the other team to THINK and then they are slow to react.
With Remy/Juan last year, teams would game plan to sag off of Harris and try to force him to be a playmaker/shot maker (something he's definitely improved on this year, especially lately). When Remy subbed in, all of the sudden instead of a guy who was never going to pull up from deep, we have a gunner who isn't afraid to shoot from anywhere. We saw in the tournament (can't remember which game) where a team continued to play Remy the same way they played Harris and got burned.
Adams/Udeh present a similar defensive game plan situation. Adams is fast, athletic and pretty good in space. He love a short roll where he can either pull up for a short jumper, attack space off the dribble, or dish to a cutting wing. Teams have to game plan to stop that or he will go for 15-20 points and get the opposing big into foul trouble and just exude confidence as he bounces all over the court. When Udeh subs in, all of the sudden that short roll is gone. Udeh is going directly to the rim in a hurry and if the defense is slow, off balance, or just too small, someone will throw it up to him and he WILL dunk it on you. Teams can adjust to this but that takes mental effort. We are likely to get easy buckets in that adjustment period (the margin @BeddieKU23 mentioned). Adjust to one guy, ope, here comes the other. How well do you know the scouting report? How fast can you adapt your Pick and Roll Coverages? Do you even have one guy capable of guarding both or do you now have to sub? This team is fun. They may not win it all because that takes a lot of luck if we are all honest. But I do think they can make some noise here and March and if they get lucky, still be playing in April.
Thanks again to the February Surpise.
Very good stuff. I was only disappointed in one player on Saturday. Joe had a miserable, rotten, no-good day, and stunk up the building in his limited time. Such a complete contrast to his minutes against Texas. Forced everything. Why he didn't drive the ball everytime he touched it is beyond me. Wild-assed jumpshots off one foot. Quit thinking so hard, Joe. Just play like you can.

Is this the moment in the season when we decide we don't want to lose any more games?
If we win out now we will, worst-case scenario, tie for conference champs.
We will then go into the tourney with a huge surge of confidence.
What worked for us last year was playing our best ball at the end of the season.
Are we done losing? I think Tuesday will tell us a lot. We rarely blow out OSU in Stillwater.. and it is common we lose there. OSU is not the same team they were a month ago. No way!
We know where we have been weak this season... mostly the bench. If our bench has turned the corner now, are there any good reasons why we should still lose games?
It's defensive intensity that won us the national championship last year. Defensive intensity that opens up the whole court, just like Saturday. Don't need the 3 ball when we're getting runout after runout. Saturday looked like last year.
We won last year by creating a tidal wave of defensive pressure which allowed us to run, and get easy baskets. The emergence of Udeh also inserts a rim protector into the lineup. On offense, now we have a huge man going downhill on the pnr. Nearly impossible to defend. And, he is much more mobile than Dok. Easy baskets are the name of the game. OU was a team that scored 75 on us at the Phog, taking us down to the wire, and we win by 4. In this matchup, we hold them to 55, and win by 23.
I don't want to set up unreasonable expectations but 6-0 is certainly possible. We owe Baylor and TCU an ass whipping, we're going to be absolutely locked and loaded for Okie St, and home games against WVU and Tech have me licking my chops. The tough one will be the last game of the season on the road against Texas. I like our chances in that one, too.
Congratulations!
Purdew gets beat by Northwestern. Northwestern get a premium win, and looks like an at large invitee to the tourney.
Purdue on the ropes at Northwestern. Down 2 with 1 min left...
With our victory last night, our record against Quad 1 opponents goes to 12-5, which is the most wins against Quad 1 opponents in the nation. 2nd place ( Texas) has 10. Quad 1 & 2 record: 15-5. We are the only Div 1 team that has zero losses to unranked teams.

He was a henchman for Marsha. When Greg punched Shaq Morris, Heiar witnessed it, and then lied about not seeing it.

I love listening to Bill Walton. I'm willing to fight on this one!
I do too. You still hear that passion that propelled him to be a star for many years. One of my heroes growing up.

Caleb Grill is an idiot - -lucky all he got was a Tech - - - By the way did I say we are going TO HAVE OUR HANDS FULL AT gALLAGHER - - - we better be ready we sure the hell can't come out like we did today at the start.--OSU very athletic tough defense - just can't have those kind of starts.
Your job is to worry- my job is to reassure you. We got this.
Hope you all go and support the Royals, if only to cheer Vinnie on. He is great:
So, what's the missing ingredient for Okie St? Good defense, good coach, great athletes. They never seem to get easy baskets. They have all that size, and they shoot tons of tough jumpers from the perimeter. Why are the Clones going to win? Because they get easier shots, and Okie St doesn't. Even though I think Okie St is better.
I saw something I have never seen today- the refs screwed Dook out of a win. This is unprecedented. The ACC couldn't handle not having a team in the Top 10, so they put in the fix.
@stoptheflop said in Chef Dick vs Conference Traitors Game Thread:
KU only shot 10 3s and made 5. Is that enough 3s? I watched at a sports bar, so I didn't/couldn't pay attention to OU's defense. Why so few 3s?
Why shoot 3s when you're rim running?
When we drive to the rim, we win. When we shoot jumpers all game, we lose.

What a win this was incredible
Epiphany moment. Bill Self is the best coach in all of basketball, and it shows. Now we got a real big man.
i notice the posts all drop off when we're playing well. funny how that works....
the chant is heard faintly....
Ok, I officially love Jay Wright. Speaks so highly of coach and our program. contrast that with the little know it all Frannie.
Juan with the pump fake...OMG
It's an Udeh world, and we're just visitin'
i LOVE this team, guys. What a freaking delight
Hey Alabama,
You ain't for real if you lost by 20 to this OU team.
look at all the empty seats. OU fans suck.

I told Porter Moser that I had some eligibility left a couple of years ago. He should have taken me up on my offer. I guarantee this wouldn't be this lopsided if he had.
He's a very solid coach. The jury is still out on his recruiting. They seem to always play us pretty tough, except for today.
new starting lineup: juan,kev, dick, jw, udeh.
