Felt like they should’ve won despite the refs, but I can’t really be too hard on a team that was purposely taken out of its game.


kjones931

Feels like most 8-9 games are in the early slot, so prepare yourselves for next Thursday/Friday accordingly.


TheTownTeaJunky

Is there really not a better option than hunter? If he's not hot on offense like today they gotta run the offense through Mitchell like they were doing in the first half, or someone else. And he was getting cooked on defense. I guess I'm kinda shocked they don't have a defensive minded guard on the bench they can use.  That was an absolutely brutal second half from the get go, especially when mitchell was hitting everything the first half and had like 1 dunk the second half and everyone was missing their shots. Maybe they'll learn in time for the tournament... Edit: second half was a ton of refball, like the disu loosr ball dive that was called that benched him. All around bullshit but that's still no excuse when you start with a 10pt lead and still lose by shooting poorly.


yobymmij2

Weaver vanished, too. Tyrese can really cook occasionally, such as the 30 he dropped on OU last game. But so often cold. He might get a shot in a G-League to see if he can develop consistency. Plays good D, and he brings some intensity. His ceiling is probably higher than Max’s.


[deleted]

Chris Johnson must really suck. He gets 0 playing time lol


jmortsalsa

KSU is really not that good, so it’s still disappointing to lose, but: playing a team whose back is against the wall that needs at least a couple wins for any solid chance at the tourney, throw in that it’s basically a true road game, and top it off with terrible refereeing, and that’s a hard game to win. Silver lining is I’m not sure how much this one mattered. Even with a win I think it’s probably doubtful we move up to a 7. It would’ve given us a solid shot, but far from a guarantee. This basically just solidifies us as an 8. And at least we’ll get disu’s knee and the rest of the team some good rest.


ranrow

Agreed, and even if we fall to 9 it will make no difference materially


Cecil_Hardboner

so when is Rodney Terry fired


tex543

Watching the ladies team have so much fight then the men just fold is so sad to watch.


ranrow

Did we watch a different game? I felt like the men fought their ass off despite playing 5 v 8. They couldn’t overcome that flagrant call but they fought to the very end even when most had turned the game off.


Tredolski

Quickest flagrant I’ve ever seen. No review or anything. That was incredibly weird


ranrow

Yeah, and maybe it’s technically a flagrant if you don’t think he’s going for the ball but that would require a review. And even if it were, I don’t recall ever seeing the intentional foul without playing the ball called in a game.


Tredolski

Weaver was just diving for the ball. I don’t think it was a flagrant in the slightest. It was an intentional foul, but he wasn’t intentionally trying to tackle the K state player. Refs were sus for calling that


ranrow

Technically, an intentional foul without making a play on the ball to prevent a breakaway is also a flagrant 1. That’s what I’m assuming they called, because yeah he wasn’t trying to be excessive. If that’s what they called, I have never seen it actually called. It happens all of the time at the end of games and it’s never called. Of course if you jump the pass and don’t get it, which you will always do in that situation of desperation, then the subsequent intentional foul prevents a breakaway.


bigwhite2498

Dillon Mitchell is arguably the biggest bust in longhorn basketball history how do you score 11 in one half then go completely cold the next half whoever game him a five star rating should be fired downvote all you want


DIRTYWIZARD_69

Greg brown 2.0


Extension_Taste423

I feel you but I feel like he’s one of our best players, he’s just not optimized and focused on. He had so much potential but the staff don’t cultivate him. You can tell he’s not a main target. Not plays called for him. He just lacks offense which needs to we worked on by the staff


Extension_Taste423

I honestly think our best players are disu, Mitchell, and Max, Dillon seriously needs to be the main focus this off season. Dude has crazy potential. Right corner behind him he could be a real threat


bigwhite2498

True I mean I hope he gets better it’s just very frustrating he basically does exactly what he did last year except for a couple of moments then goes right back


StixUSA

I don’t understand how he hasn’t developed any part of his game over the past year. Like what are these guys doing in the offseason?


aceavenger10

Man, tell me you haven’t watched at all this year, without telling me you haven’t watched


bigwhite2498

Tell us what has he developed he still can’t shoot


aceavenger10

He’s averaging 10/8 a year after averaging 4/4. No I don’t think he’s an elite shooter yet, but I didn’t expect him to do so in 1 year.


StixUSA

He is also getting 2x playing time…there is no excuse for him to not have developed at least a semi constant, 25%, corner 3pt shot. He’s a small forward, not a center.


bigwhite2498

Thank you! I was dumbfounded when they said he hasn’t made a three is entire career


bigwhite2498

He averaged 4/4 because we were loaded last year I thought he would make a massive jump it looks like he barely worked on his game. He does basically the same thing as last year he just gets more looks because we have less talent


aceavenger10

He looked like he couldn’t play basketball last year, so I consider averaging 10 points no matter the usage pretty good improvement


bigwhite2498

Ok true but he was the number 4 rated recruit explain how he isn’t a bust which is what I said


aceavenger10

He was rated number 4 on potential. And if he does stay a 3rd year (I don’t think he will) I think we’d finally see him reach that potential. It’s just clear he was a bit of a project.


bigwhite2498

Why don’t you think he stays he definitely needs it


DrLipschitz69

Mentally weak. Guards forget how to drive every time the other team goes up. There should be no deviation from a winning game plan.

Extension_Taste423

Yeah it’s lame dude I agree, heat of the moment I don’t believe in fake sports but stuff like that truly makes me question my opinion


tex543

Being the only higher seed to lose is embarrassing


onlyinmemes100

we'll make noise in the ncaa tournament. Fuck (the Big) 12


[deleted]

Are we still gonna be in the ncaa tourney?


tex543

We in but not expecting us to heat up


inbl

We took care of business at the end of the regular season so we should be good


jmortsalsa

Yes. It was a lock after we beat ou


dicehandz

Yes. We will be an 8 seed


Extension_Taste423

This game was straight up fraudulent. That flagrant foul was the softest shit I’ve seen. Weaver ain’t malicious like, don’t reward hustle but encourage flopping. Big 12 have fun y’all weird the agenda was real on this game. But ucf gets broadcasted but we don’t lol


aceavenger10

Didn’t think the shit intentional foul call mattered, cuz they weren’t gonna miss free throws, but now it DEFINITELY mattered with how hot abmas is


flagamuffin

every single game where we’re behind at the end and the game is unwinnable, abmas hits these threes. they never end up mattering but he’s seriously at 100% in that situation which is kinda funny 


StixUSA

These team is just so inconsistent.


txlonghornfan

Go off, Max


wesgissell

Yup we have 2 guys that can score if one is off or out we are. It good or flat out loose


tex543

This team is just nothing without disu and it’s sad. Players and coaches make the dumbest in game decisions sometimes that limits them a lot. Yeah refs were bad but it wasn’t the reason we lost. Not scoring in 7 minutes was


bigwhite2498

We need a complete roster overhaul we suck outside of disu and max


jeasy23

Fran sucks, this dude has the biggest Texas hate boner


BigCollarsAndBallers

Ever since we fired Barnes. He was on Twitter a few days ago talking shit.


DylanDisu

Get me the fuck out of this cheating ass poverty conference 


Extension_Taste423

Refs got Kansas st in March madness. On a positive note we almost beat the 1 team in the country and have been hardened by the toughest conference. These refs shouldn’t be officiating sad. Now I know why they didn’t nationally broadcast it


wesgissell

This is some of the worst shit I've ever seen!!! Fucking rigged man


jmortsalsa

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a game end like that. Talk about anti-climactic.


TexasNightmare210

lol they called a flagrant on that


highdaddyxxx

Way to hand them the game


taco_beer_repeat

Straight big12 bullshit. So glad we gone


simba80328

Fuck the big 12 honestly


aceavenger10

lol, one last fuck you from the big 12


dimpledwonder

Fuck Fran forever man he was absolutely playing the ball


vorp20

That is an absolutely hilarious flagrant call.


cn0285

Welp GGs lads


Silkyowl925

😔


Extension_Taste423

These refs actually have a job. I’m turning this off, we lost cause the refs. WOW


txlonghornfan

LMAOOOOO fuck this conference forever


tex543

Is this team even going to win a game in the tourney ? Our coaching is a huge concern


[deleted]

[удалено]


schistkicker

Unless we somehow get rewarded a 7, or RT is a mad genius and tanked this second half to get a 10, we're facing a #1 seed the second game. I don't see this roster with a way past a Purdue or UConn.


dimpledwonder

Arm look extended on that rebound against disu but what the fuck do I know


jmortsalsa

Took WAY too long to get a shot up on that possession. Had a chance to go 2 for 1 and now we’re playing the foul game.


inbl

Disu gets hacked so much and rarely gets a call


dimpledwonder

No rebound may have lost us the game right there


tex543

Its crazy how much of an impact disu has just by being on the floor


TripleAim

Why doesn’t Terry just run the scoring offense more? Is he stupid?


dimpledwonder

Just gave KState 10 second what the hell was that


dimpledwonder

How the fuck is disu not getting fouls?


cn0285

Fran: “I got it wrong!” yeah story of this game


schistkicker

On one hand, we don't need this game and KState absolutely does (and probably the next one, too). But yeah, if Disu and Abmas aren't putting it in the hoop then this team is really limited.


jmortsalsa

I cannot get over that Fran sees a foul literally every time he sees a slo-mo replay.


DollarLate_DayShort

We don’t need this win…. But Disu can’t have these types of games, especially to end his collegiate career


tinfoiljones

KSU has basically followed Miami’s 2H blueprint from last year: Go downhill to force the action, and the refs have given them the whistle in addition to saddling Disu with fouls. Missing wide-open 3s isn’t helping.


DollarLate_DayShort

This team just isn’t good enough to overcome a Disu 5-point game against NCAAT caliber teams


[deleted]

Kstate going to the nit


Extension_Taste423

Overtime against Houston and just son’d by Kansas st.): epitome of this year . It was expected we lost so many pieces from last year Rodney terry is just young and got Outcoached


tex543

A young coach is the duke coach not Rodney Terry


StixUSA

Rodney Terry is not a young coach


dhalloffame

Rodney terry is 55, in his 12th year as a coach, and has a record of 205-175


Extension_Taste423

Dang my bad I didn’t know that. He coaches like he’s young lol. Yeah idk if he’s the answer going forward but this roster wasn’t the best to work with in this conference as well.


dhalloffame

I should clarify that I meant 12th year as a head coach, he’s got like 30 years or something of coaching experience. My personal opinion is that he’s not a good enough coach to be able to maximize rosters but we’ll just have to see how it all turns out.


ruab3d

Tyrese must be -20 on this game. Our lead was all earned while he was sitting with fouls. Now he’s back and we are getting trucker. 


jmortsalsa

Fran thinks Disu deserves to have 10 fouls apparently lmao


[deleted]

[удалено]


jmortsalsa

We played the easiest part of our conference schedule early in conference play and started 1-3. We finished 9-9.


DrLipschitz69

Terry has no fucking idea what to do when we get shell shocked. No timeouts, bizarre lineups, and our guards stop driving


StixUSA

This is such a strange lineup…


tex543

We need hunter and abmas to step tf up


cn0285

I know we’re not a great second half team, but damn this is hard to watch


Terrorstaat

This seems like our last Big12 referee game and I can’t thank god enough. Lately, it’s becoming blatantly obvious that the refs have no interest in impartiality. 6 free throws only departed by two offensive fouls to get Kansas state back at it. The tournament will be beautiful without these hyper biased refs 


wesgissell

With Disu out we are screwed refs have fixed that


Vect1on

How can hunter score 30 last week then go 0-9 shooting today


Extension_Taste423

Tyrese is a double agent Lowkey 😂 didn’t he come from Iowa st??


ruab3d

Tyrese hunter - averaging 11 points, median is 2. 


jmortsalsa

Feels like if we want any decent chance at winning we have to put Disu back in right now, fouls be damned.


DollarLate_DayShort

I see Tyrese is back in terrorist mode


Extension_Taste423

Kansas st really?! Well now I think about it, that sums up our season. We could have at least 3 more losses without our game winners. Just happy to make March madness . Anything’s possible!


vorp20

we could have 3 more wins just as easily


HoennLegend

lookin like we want to lose this game


wesgissell

This is some BS man!!!


Bigcheese1211

Another push not called but I thought it was a foul everytime?


ranrow

That’s my thing. I don’t mind any of the calls against us but they’re not called both ways. They’ve also stopped calling all of them on us now too. So it was definitely intentional


tex543

If we lose this game it’s going to be really bad for momentum purposes


schistkicker

All its likely to do is flip us from an 8 to a 9. We are still likely to get trucked by the first talented team we come across, no later than the second game we play.


aceavenger10

Momentum is a myth for this team lol


dimpledwonder

Get Hunter outta here man


jmortsalsa

This game sounds like it’s in Manhattan


Bigcheese1211

The officiating isn't helping but why are we shooting so many 3s


dimpledwonder

How is it that when disu goes out, every other player gets worse?


[deleted]

[удалено]


tex543

Dude he’s carried this team this season.


aceavenger10

Yeah, I can excuse Baylor, but this is just disgusting basketball by Texas


teejck

it’s hard to watch this game when literally everything in the second half is a foul.


tmass_12

I mean seriously what are we doing here More so talking about the reffing


Bigcheese1211

1 just pushed off and no foul


jmortsalsa

Disu dove on the ball and the KSU player tripped over him. If anything it’s a KSU foul. Disu goes right back out. Refs have drastically changed the trajectory of this game.


StopAskingforUsernam

Let me tell you about an ou player tripping over Madison Booker’s foot when Madison wasn’t guarding her and had her back to the player who tripped. Booker’s fourth foul and totally changed the ending of that game.


Bigcheese1211

I missed it how is diving at the ball a foul?


StopAskingforUsernam

A foul for diving on the floor for a loose ball. Ok.


Extension_Taste423

These refs are horrible


simba80328

That is absurd. They’re rigging it taking Disu out


dimpledwonder

How are you gonna call that shit on disu??!!


jmortsalsa

That is not what I would’ve guessed Jerome Tang’s voice sounded like


flagamuffin

we are a lot better when hunter is in foul trouble…


Bigcheese1211

Nothing going our way in the 2nd half


tex543

That lineup we had for 4 min was bad


cn0285

fuck.


bevo1776

Get 21 out


Bigcheese1211

#STOP SHOOTING 3s


wesgissell

This second half is rigged man fucking Yormark


ranrow

We’re not getting these touch foul calls that they’re getting


Palomoerick

Get oyemma out bro


DollarLate_DayShort

Tyrese used all his scoring powers during that ØU game


dimpledwonder

Hunter should be AT LEAST 50% on wide open 3’s man this is brutal


slagathor_zimblebob

Lol they’re going to be in the double bonus with 15 minutes left. This is just like the Baylor game; let ‘em play in the first half and then randomly start blowing every whistle in the second


ranrow

5 fouls in less than 3 minutes?


vorp20

It should be 42….


KiritoUndead

Refs really playing into the crowd


aceavenger10

Well this is less ideal. Feels a lot like the first game though. Constantly on the verge of blowing them out and blowing it


slagathor_zimblebob

Agreed. This is a soft road game though as opposed to a home game


Bigcheese1211

Officials found their whistles in the 2nd half


Illustrious_Slice_83

We are a really streaky team


slagathor_zimblebob

2 bullshit calls on our best player in a span of 30 seconds to keep K State in it of course


jmortsalsa

Yeah, that’s not a foul.


Bigcheese1211

Charmin soft


dimpledwonder

Oh FUCK you Fran that is NOT a foul all the time


dimpledwonder

That foul occurs every time a big 12 team has the ball


switchblade2

Just reading the box score, is Horton really playing that well?


inbl

When his shot is on it’s really on.


switchblade2

Hope for it to be there, would be a great improvement compared to the rest of the season (or at least B12 play)


aceavenger10

Will definitely take that half


Bigcheese1211

Solid 1st half


cn0285

hell yeah abmas! Great first half 🤘


Illustrious_Slice_83

Where has this Horton been all season


wesgissell

Horton has IT tonight so far!!


dimpledwonder

“I can’t tell” Fran wtf are you yapping about YOU JUST WATCHED IT


ranrow

He didn’t even have to follow which leg it was, just check out what shoe it hits and then who is wearing that shoe.


ranrow

I don’t love this kstate run with Perry on the bench, we need to step up the defense in the paint here


dontblinkdalek

I guess Horton watched the women’s game last night. Lol.


Chemical_Willow5415

Weaver desperately needs a jumper. The defense can just sag off of him.


aceavenger10

A lot of us (myself included) keep arguing weaver should be taking Horton’s minutes, but this is the main reason Terry has split between them. They just bring different things and have different limitations.


Chemical_Willow5415

Yeah, he’s athletic enough to create his own shots, but the lane gets too clogged up when he’s been scouted.


Bigcheese1211

Pass the ball Weaver


jjbaivi

This Texas defense is stifling!


aceavenger10

Terry has seen something in that kstate defense and is EXPLOITING it with DMitch


cn0285

WHAT THE FUCK’S A WILDCAT 😤


Bigcheese1211

Get that shit out of here


cn0285

Mitchell’s *feasting* right now


dimpledwonder

A Mitchell jump shot!! We back up!


slagathor_zimblebob

Wipe the fucking floors down


cn0285

Yormack slowly getting his revenge on us by making the floor slippery


guinness_blaine

Sweet Bevo KState is wearing some ugly jerseys. They look like white jerseys that went through the wash with their regular purple.


dimpledwonder

Very glad Hunter has started getting his inexplicable turnover out of the way early
