February 11, 20232 yr Muhammad got that rebound shoeless lol And refs love to call offensive fouls/charges. My goodness
February 11, 20232 yr Just now, Rickylovesweed said: Harmon is special in the open court. She needs to go work with the men on her FT shooting. It’s all mental
February 11, 20232 yr Free throw shooting is in Harmon's head now. No reason she should be this poor of a FT shooter.
February 11, 20232 yr Just now, orangeut said: I think Rori is 0-3 on free throws. Odd She's just a 50% FT shooter on the year. It's been a problem all year with her for some reason.
February 11, 20232 yr Just now, orangeut said: Ugly ballgame Sloppy. Kinda not surprised playing an 0-12 team in conference. We may be looking ahead to Monday
February 11, 20232 yr Thanks for all the updates... hope Horns finish this game better than they did vs tech
February 11, 20232 yr Jones needs more touches. They can't stop her. They're reviewing that Gonzales basket at the shot clock. It was close.
February 11, 20232 yr Up 21 now with 2:44 left. Close it out without Tech-like drama and off to Ames tomorrow

February 11, 20232 yr Texas wins 70-50. Great game for Taylor and Shaylee On to Ames Just now, TommysTinyTowels said: Mildly concerned about Jak, she hasn't improved this year the way Amina has. Muhammad played at DeSoto. Jak played in SD. Competition level is way way different. Jak didn’t play against a lot of D1 talent in HS
February 12, 20232 yr WV trying to fall apart late... have not scored in last 3 minutes WV is up 63-55 3:30 left Edited February 12, 20232 yr by LTtxfan
February 12, 20232 yr Iowa State is not the same team since they lost their center for the year. I just hope we're somewhat healthy for that game.
February 12, 20232 yr The big thing is we really need Muhammad healthy because she's going to be the one chasing Joesn around for large portions of the game. Hopefully, she just had a cold or something.

February 12, 20232 yr Texas will be 3 up in the loss column on Baylor and ISU and 1.5 games up on OU. It does look like it’ll come down to that game in Norman
February 12, 20232 yr Can’t believe anyone gave LSU and that toilet paper soft schedule a chance against SC
February 12, 20232 yr No. 20/23 Texas (20-6, 11-2 Big 12) at No. 21/19 Iowa State (15-7, 7-5 Big 12) Monday, February 13, 2023 – 6:00 p.m. Game 27 Hilton Coliseum – Ames, Iowa TELEVISION: The game will be nationally televised on ESPN2. Beth Mowins (pxp) and Debbie Antonelli (analyst) will have the call. RADIO: The game will be carried on 105.3 FM in Austin. Roger Wallace (pxp) and Kathy Harston (analyst) will call the action. The Longhorns won the first matchup of the season in Austin, 68-53 on Jan. 15. RORI HARMON: Harmon leads the Big 12 in assists per game. Harmon leads the team in fouls drawn (105) and charges taken (26). Against TCU last time out, Harmon drew 10 fouls and took four charges. LEADING THE PACK: The Longhorns currently rank first in the Big 12 standings with an 11-2 mark in conference play. The 11-2 start is their best conference start through 13 games since the 2016-17 season. STREAKS: The Longhorns have won seven straight Big 12 games 20 WINS: The Longhorns notched their 20th win of the season against TCU. For head coach Vic Schaefer, he has now won 20 or more games in 10 straight seasons as a head coach.

In two games last week Gonzales averaged over 20 points a game while shooting over 50 percent from the field.

February 13, 20232 yr Tonight is the kind of game where Jones/Gaston/Faye should feast because ISU has no one to guard the 3 headed monster have in the post. Without Soares, they are relying on: 6'2 Nyamer Diew (20.6mpg, 6.0 ppg, 4.6 rpg) 6'3 Morgan Kane (13mpg, 4.6 ppg, 4.0 rpg) 6'4 Izzy Zingaro (7.1mpg, 3.8 ppg, 1.9 rpg) They will play pretty small for most of the game - Joens is 6'1, Diew is 6'2 and Donarksi is 6'0. At many points, Gaston/Jones/Faye are going to have a 6'1 or 6'2 player or a smaller guard on them and they need to own the paint. If we shut down the 3 point shooting and protect against the backdoor cuts ISU likes to run, Texas will win. In Austin, Joens had 21 and no one else for ISU hit double digits. They shot 40% from the field and 26.7% from three and only attempted 11 FTs. Texas shot 50% from the field, 25% from three and went to the line 11 times as well. Gaston had 17 and Shaylee had 11. Taylor Jones had 8 points in 17 min on 3-5 shooting and no fouls. Our 3 post players had 30 points on 11-19 shooting. I expect them to have many more shots tonight without Morris. Let Joens get hers. Edited February 13, 20232 yr by Js1
February 13, 20232 yr Was hoping Morris could go tonight but I guess it's still too early, the offense looks so much better with her on the floor. If Sonya is out Shay needs to look for her offense more, she's a good shooter who defers too much. I'm also hoping for a little less Jak in this game, still trying to wash her 0 for 10 vs TCU out of my eyes.

Considering Muhammad ended up playing 9 minutes to Jak's 14, sure felt like Vic felt the opponent (0-12 in conference play) warranted playing time for Jak and some extra rest for Muhammad. Conference play is a damn grind for the freshman.

February 13, 20232 yr 17 minutes ago, Rickylovesweed said: They're probably going to go zone and force Texas to hit open 3s. Yeah, probably. The open looks will be there. Shaylee at 33% (40% in conference play) Rori at 21% but we know she can hit them (3-5 against Tech) Holle at 39% (46% in conference play) Texas is also a rebounding beast offensively. Texas is #1 in the conference in offensive rebounding. Last 5 games: 16, 14, 13, 16, 12. And that was against OSU (6'3 De Lapp), KU (6'6 Taiyanna Jackson), WV (2 different 6'3 posts), Tech (6'5 Tofeano and 6'4 Lewis) and TCU (6'3 Cravens and 6'7 Morris) Edited February 13, 20232 yr by Js1
February 13, 20232 yr Also, this is a game where Texas should go really big with Jones and Gaston. With no Soares they are playing Joens at the 4 which means she would have to guard either Jones or Gaston. Joens is way too small to guard either of those two. Make her work on the defensive end and get her in foul trouble.
February 13, 20232 yr With no Soares, Iowa State really only plays 6 players. They play their starters huge minutes. Getting them in foul trouble would be great.

Texas can and will rotate 5 different players who are 6'2 or taller. It's going to be a nightmare for them inside, especially if they can't hit their threes. We will miss Morris for being able to have 5'10, 5'10 and 6'0 guards all over them (Morris, Gonzales and Holle). We are only 8 deep right now without Morris and Moore. So not much better, basically 7 with Jak.
February 13, 20232 yr Remaining 5 conference games: @ ISU - NET 15 (Quad 1) WV - NET 66 (Quad 2) @ OU - NET 36 (Quad 1) Baylor - NET 24 (Quad 1) @ KSU - NET 67 (Quad 1) Winning out would give us a 9-5 quad 1 record and an 8-1 quad 2 record going into the Big 12 tournament. 4-1 is the actual goal here , with a win in Norman being one of the 4 wins, as 15-3 should easily win the Big 12 regular season if we sweep OU. Kansas or Ok State could do us a huge favor with a W at home over OU.
February 14, 20232 yr Our 3 point FG defense is bad early. ISU 2-2. Texas ice cold. Faye has no post moves, Jesus. She also gets tied up so easily on rebounds
