Wow K-State pulled out a 1-point win in Ames. Barry Brown with a game winning layup.

 

[Frog-in-law1995]

Iowa State just got absolutely jobbed by the refs. K State, down 1, grabbed a rebound on a missed FT after shoving an iowa state guy out of the way. Brutal no call.

Boston College just got screwed on a block call. Should have been a charge. Oh well not a fan of Christian anyway

 

[PO Frog]

Shouldn’t have been a call at all. Defender fell backwards before any contact and it was desperation from offense that should not have been rewarded.

 

[tcumaniac]

Refs suck.

Gracias.

Bad news for Baylor

 

[Toadster]

Only thing worse than these refs is the OU broadcast team. They are terrible.

 

[Moose Stuff]

Duke/FSU has been an amazing game.

asked the question before and will ask again, with the 1 or 2 scholarships open do you recruit for this position knowing alex graduates and you are left with a number of question marks at the guard positions

Need to structure the team assuming Fisher is not part of it.

 

[CountryFrog]

Damn! I was afraid this would be the case but have been holding out hope.

At this point I'll consider the season a success if we can finish .500 in conference play. It's just not the same team without Fisher.

I tend to agree with this, but RJ has been making some nice strides recently and I think we may be able to ride him to a better record than .500 if his trajectory continues. We absolutely can't have any other injuries, though. We're getting very thin. Kaden could have had a lot more playing time this spring if he'd stuck around.

I know one of our commits is a PG, but yes I wouldn’t be surprised if we go after another guard or try to get a grad transfer guard

one recruit is a pg (rep being he needs to develop his perimeter game) and the star of the class is a sg.

Yea, I'm not ruling anything out (and of course other teams in the conference will be dealing with injuries as well) but without either a jump in production from a player like RJ or Lat or Noi/Bane having monster nights consistently then this is going to be a fairly limited offensive attack. It's also going to be very difficult to expect Robinson to give a lot of ball pressure on the defensive end since we can't afford to have him in foul trouble plus he'll be playing 35+ minutes every night.

Another interesting nugget. That’s a pretty damn serious concussion

Looks like I was right in my thread the other day. Def interesting.
