@cragarhawk It seems your perspective is overly black and white... What we do today predicates exactly what we do tomorrow, and so on. That seems pretty dismissive of hundreds of other elements that a more optimistic fan is willing to acknowledge exist.
It seems a pessimist can be characterized as holding an irrational belief in the predictive capacity of a data set that is too limited, while an optimist might be said to hold an irrational belief in his team's abilities, knowing full well that he has not attempted to accommodate all available data into his perspective.
Both are faith based beliefs that are in direct conflict. So you see, it's a holy war.
There's no place like Home. There's no place like Home...
@DanR Rock... Chalk... Championship?
I don't think Carlton needs any assistance breaking his confidence right now.
Hope he comes back strong next year and proves all us naysayers wrong.
@truehawk93 he's good. they're going to be a challenger next year.
Is there simply no excuse for kicking their asses?
LOL Landen. I'm glad that pressure at half court worked out!
Vick wants it. Damn.
Ooh nice move James.
BOOM
@DanR this team can score at the pace of an NBA team.
@BeddieKU23 here come the fans.
@tis4tim damn straight.
@BeddieKU23 I think you have to threaten to turn the TV off and that you're gonna leave before they fix this mess.
F em up, Dwight.
@kjayhawks Carlton, what dude? lol
@BeddieKU23 they're getting a lot of kind rolls as well.
@BShark agree. Lon is going to have this team humming next year if their recruiting class is half decent.
@wissox We lost to Texas Tech in their senior night when Voskuil was there in 2009. Does that count, kinda?
@BeddieKU23 nah. wait for it :smile:
@globaljaybird tig... hit? what does that mean? oh TITE!
I'm not worried about a good team playing poorly in a regular season game because of extraneous value being placed on a game. Like our loss to Texas when Tom Rob's mom passed...
This team will be a monster come tournament time. If all we have to do is win a game, that's what these guys are good at. Life's the hard part.
Life will go on the shelf for the tournament this year.
@BeddieKU23 It felt like the 6-0 run to start for OU deferred us finding our groove the whole half. The crowd was ready to explode and they never got to. If JJ hadnt stepped on baseline and flushed that dunk 2nd possession this half might be totally different.
@BeddieKU23 No. Does it matter though? If we have a crappy 2nd half I'll be a little concerned.
@DoubleDD I dunno man. Maybe it doesn't usually get called that way, but it looked like the right call.
Eh well.
London Perentes looks more like Kramer every time I see him.
How many times have we heard Fran say the opposing team just wants to "stay within striking distance".. How about "you want to be up by at least 10 going into the half to give yourself a chance".
@DCHawker We will be better 2nd half.
OU is trying to challenge us for Big Hair Supremacy.
@Texas-Hawk-10 no no, wasnt insinuating we should pursue him at all.. just to me "granted release" means the kid is eligible next year. I'm just trying to clarify if thats true.
@DCHawker yeah was it mbah moute?
@Texas-Hawk-10 Since he was granted his release isnt Tevin Mack available to transfer and play immediately?
Lagerald La-JIT!
@DanR Is that what it is? Seems like he should be able to challenge 3s with good length and decent hops.
When Svi has defensive position he can challenge layups well in the air. When he doesn't have position it's usually a 3 point play.
Oh man Frank's dad bawling. It's OK Frank II, it's OK.
@BShark yo B, you think Tyler will stay on staff?
"Franks for the memories" sign in glitter... Winner!
You ready for this Lon?
@BShark clearly the next assistant coach (and the next head coach) is Tyler Self.
@RockChalkinTexas wow. You are a smooth operator! Thanks for the inside scoop. Love that you chose a pic of Devonte hugging Self :smile:
@JayHawkFanToo nailed it.
@jaybate-1.0 oh man. LOL
↗We'll be fine. Glad nobody got hurt. Glad we got a W, and glad our bench can score.
What do you say when your 7 year old sees Bill Walton and asks what he is doing?
Did Frank come out at all tonight?
This is a game we were willing to lose, but Texas was not willing to win.
Josh "Michael Jordan" "drink Sprite" Jackson.
