TAMU, Knower of Ball

Oklahoma State won on the road at #13 Texas Tech. They were coming off their first two losses of the season, a headscratcher to TCU at home (by 1) and a three point loss at Texas (who recently smacked Kansas in the mouth). I definitely underestimated Ok State preseason. I didn't think that they would be this good.

Missed this one from the weekend. Colorado State rallied from a 26 point deficit to beat Mountain West favorite San Diego State. Their comeback included a 19-0 run towards the end of the first half and a 14-0 run towards the end of the second half. Their two runs combined for 33-0 and they only won by 3 points, taking the lead for the first time with around 10 seconds left. It is the largest comeback of the season so far and just the 5th road comeback of 26 points or more in the past 10 seasons.

I am guessing Colorado State scoop is using the comeback as proof the team needs a new coach.

No miraculous comeback last night. CSU lost to SDSU by 13.

I totally celebrated our comeback win vs Georgetown.

That said, two things that are not the same: a 26 point comeback vs the best team in the conference and an 18 point comeback vs the worst team in the conference.

UMass @ GW game postponed due to the insurrection.

I thought I had seen it all after postponements due to wet aircraft carrier surfaces and Covid, but this one takes the cake: a game postponed because of an armed insurrection at the United States Capitol.

The Big East

McKinley Wright IV just had another outstanding game in Colorado's win over #17 Oregon. His coach just said he is on track for Career stats 1600 points 600 rebounds And 600 assists which be the first player in PAC-12 history to achieve those stats .

Does anybody remember what happened with MU recruitment of McKinley, If any, I remember he was in same high school team as Theo.

McKinley originally signed with Dayton but decommitted after a coaching change and went to Colorado.

It isn't the same thing because he isn't Wojo and Joey likes him.   False equivalency.

Very nice win for Shaka over Huggy Bear today.

One of Huggy's players screwed up royally with a 1-point lead and 10 seconds left -- grabbed an offensive rebound and could have killed clock, but instead tried to score, got fouled, and then bricked 2 FTs. Texas then hit the winning 3.

Texas having an outstanding season, including a decisive win over Kansas last week. Will be interesting to see what the coming months have in store for them.

Courtney Ramey, and others have been very good this year. This what Texas had hoped for and expected with Ramey.

So....has your overall opinion of Shaka changed?
Is he the #donedeal scoopers wished we had or is he still the same guy who deserved your relentless verbal punishment for 5 plus years?

He is finally getting it together after all these years even having the benefit of the Texas name and with the benefit of many highly sought after players on his roster.

Silent Verbal

Looking back, it's hard to blame Shaka for not taking the MU job.  We didn't even have an Athletic Director at the time, so we were essentially asking him to come here without knowing who his boss would be.  If we'd had an AD in place, things might've turned out differently.  I don't necessarily harbor any ill will against him, and it was great to see Andrew Jones hit that last shot today for Texas.  That kid has been through a lot and hope he continues to have a good season.

Can't blame Shaka. He held out for a better job.

I've had fun with the whole Shaka thing, but all I ever did was state facts. For example, some of the same Scoopers who were killing Wojo for losing in the first round of the NCAAs didn't seem to mind Shaka going 11-22 at Texas. 11-22!!

And Texas has won exactly as many NCAA tourney games under Shaka as Marquette has under Wojo.

And of the 11 seasons at their present schools that the two have combined to coach heading into this one, Wojo's 2018-19 season was easily the best. (Which, given the ending, says something about both of them.)

Now, the fact is that Shaka, in Year 6, finally looks like he has a team that's got it all together. They are exciting and talented. So we'll see. I mean, if they keep playing outstanding hoops and do some damage in March, I'm not gonna deny it. I'm gonna acknowledge it.

But yes, he deserved my "relentless verbal punishment" while Texas did squadoosh for 5 years; during that stretch, he probably was the most overrated coach in all of college basketball. But this is a new year and, again, it looks like he and his team might finally be ready to have a break-out season. It sure as heck doesn't look like Wojo and his team are gonna do anything special this year.
