November 29, 20196 yr Nice learning experience for Tech in Vegas tonight. Not going to win many games shooting 4-24 from 3.
November 29, 20196 yr Hard to be too mad about this game. If Garza doesn't intentionally injure Jahmius Ramsey we probably win. We played about as bad a basketball game as you could
November 29, 20196 yr Too many Turnovers. Poor shooting. If it werent for the D and rebounding...Still, Im pretty cool with the fight. The claw back. The youngsters were definitely off their game under the spotlight for the first time. Iowa has a nice team, and they were pumped to play us. We better get use to it, because this is what we can expect every night.

Just one of those games and not especially surprising given the sheer number of true freshmen we are leaning on. Also, I'm not usually one to complain about the refs, but I've never seen so many illegal screens and non-called travels in a single college basketball game in my life.
November 29, 20196 yr Yeah, I never got mad during the game either. It was just one of those nights in Vegas when you kept playing, but knew nothing was going to hit...
November 29, 20196 yr Iowa played physical basketball like what this young Tech team will experience in Big 12 play (and hopefully tournament play). They hadn’t experienced physical D-1 play like that until last night. Part of the growing up process, and I hope they can learn from it because they will get a much much heavier dose of it in conference play. I think that had to impact their psyche and consequently their shooting, which was absolutely abysmal. Edited November 29, 20196 yr by Uncle Nate
November 30, 20196 yr Clank. Clank. Clank.Tech's offense is dogshitSent from my SM-T560NU using Tapatalk
November 30, 20196 yr I was worried the increased spacing due to the backed up 3 point line would blow up Beard's defensive strategy and I'm seeing that happen in real time.
November 30, 20196 yr Tech tied it at 61 but it doesn't look like they have anything left in the tank to finish it off - which is odd because their depth is was got them back into it.
November 30, 20196 yr I will never, ever, ever understand why teams do that stupid shit like Creighton at the end of games. Such a fucking horrendous possession. Edited November 30, 20196 yr by spystud13
November 30, 20196 yr Tech may drop to mid 20s in rankings. Or may not be ranked at all.Sent from my SM-T560NU using Tapatalk
November 30, 20196 yr We probably win both of those games if Ramsey didn't get hurt, but we still played like shit for at least 2 halves total.

November 30, 20196 yr The ESPN predictor had creighton with a 75% win probability at tip...was surprised to see that.
November 30, 20196 yr Tech only committed 7 turnovers. For regulation and OT. I saw effort that you normally dont see until March. The buy in from the players into Beard basketball is there. The numbers were there. But like someone else said. Shots did not fall. Just glad football is over.
December 3, 20196 yr Yeah, last year was the best season in Tech’s history. This season, I want to see Beard mold these guys into a much, much younger team. I don’t mind the quality opponents, as it will help later. It didn’t necessarily ‘click’ for Owens or Mooney last year until January or so... Lots of work to still put in. Gonna be fun to watch...
December 3, 20196 yr Tech is about 2-3 years from being a perennial power. I say that because they have to build the old and young depth. Right now they are in a position where it is a rebuild (last year was thought to be one). More talent incoming for 2-3 years means you’ll have great upperclassmen and talented underclasses. Then you have great continuity.
December 3, 20196 yr Baylor has Maryland Eastern Shore today and then Arizona and Butler in the next week.

But with transfers and egos and the wind blowing....who knows.

I think comparing Beard teams from year to year is going to be interesting for quite some time. This team has definitely bought in in the moneyball side of things...but now they also are getting opponents very best game.
December 5, 20196 yr Tech just needs to learn to play as a team. Lots of talent, but needs maturity. Not expecting much from basketball this season, but he future is bright. After football being so bad ready for something positive.
December 5, 20196 yr Baylor vs Arizona tips at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, same time that the BXII FB CCG kicks off at Jerry World. So what do I get in the mail? 2 FREE tickets to the bball game. Two ranked teams and they're giving tickets away.

December 7, 20196 yr That’s weird. Aren’t the A&M/UT tickets there cheaper than UT/TCU at Schollmaier?
