Gradey and McCullar were better tonight. Harris and Adams were worse.

Playing Jalen at the 5 isn't going to be the optimal rebounding lineup, but it's what gave us a shot.
We tied the game up with KJ at the 5.
There is no reason for JW to play the 5 because KJ is 1 of our best offensive options most nights.

KJ’s just doesn’t have the size to play the 5 against top Big 12 teams. Clemence, Udeh, and Ejifor all being useless is making the wheels come off this season.

It's in the context of a game thread where everyone was frustrated we were giving up O rebounds. Was only talking about the last 2 minutes where we were down 10 and went to a full court press to try and get a steal and then were running up and down the court trying to get layups or 3's. Of course that's not an optimal rebounding lineup.

We need a guard that can drive downhill and score in addition to just pass first. That will open up for the wings to shoot. Hopefully there is someone in the next class that's in the mold of devote, frank or dot.

We struggled with rebounding all night though.

It wasn't just the size tonight. Scott Drew had a gameplan to exploit our switching and it worked very well for them at times. They'd get KJ switched on a little and drive right at/past him.

Also, why the hell does Cam Martin have a scholarship spot on this roster?

Because they thought he'd be better than Mitch Lightfoot?

Going to keep coming back to that Bill T. 7 point game with the ball. Made it insurmountable.

The officiating was awful at that point though. I get why Self was pissed.
We had a 5 point game with the ball and 1:30 and Dejuan threw it away.

Seems like no votes so far to watch this on the big screen at the drive in.
I ain't heard no fat lady sing
“Hope” is the thing with Crimson and Blue feathers -
That perches in the soul -
And sings the tune without the words -
And never stops - at all -
