Other games 2024-2025



  • Hey now, we are nothing like KState. They only had a 2 week stretch of good play where we are a coinflip every night.



  • @wissox said in Other games 2024-2025:

    Just saw that the Haskell womens coach got terminated because of DOGE actions. Maybe question this expense at the end of the season? But in season? Heartless.

    Why was he a probationary employee since 2021? Something else is amiss too.

    He did say he would finish the season out - unpaid 😕



  • All I saw was let go mid season, nothing about probationary. Tweets rarely go into relevant facts!



  • @wissox I want to know why the hiring process is so messed up he was a probationary employee for 4! years. Not that anyone saw this coming, but it was avoidable and seems weird.



  • Lots of talk about St. Johns and now one East Coast SPN article saying could St. Johns be the 5th Big East champion of the century? I looked at their schedule. Underwhelming! 1-1 against top 25. They beat Creighton, that’s it, and Creighton is no longer ranked. Doesn’t sound like a champion to me.



  • Who else remembers the FT distraction at OU that was a 6ft gorilla behind the backboard and the head spun in a circle? I kind of miss those fan hijinks, but they made me mad during the game. What about the AZ or AZ St person behind the shower curtain. That was a good one. But I sure don’t miss the insensitive antics that we saw in Manhattan and Columbia.



  • Izzo pulled an alltimer today. UW was off to a great start and Tonje had an And 1 called. Izzo started complaining and the refs took the 2 points off the board saying it was before the shot. Huge momentum swing as we didn’t score and what would have been 16-4 remained at 13-4, they hit a 3 and suddenly we had ourselves a ballgame. Many big Izzo moments today. I like him as a coach still but refs really look over their shoulders at him if they know he’s staring at them.



  • Some one take a look at St. Johns season and tell me what’s wrong with saying it’s not all that impressive.



  • Because it’s my lunch break, got to watch what’s on, and I just saw one of Coach Cal’s brilliant players block a shot that came off the backboard awkwardly, a foot to the right of the goal, and bouncing away from the goal go up and swat it back at the backboard for the easiest goaltending call of all time.



  • The floor in KC is making my eyes bleed. NCAA has one of the best sports leagues out there and they go stupid with ridiculous paint jobs. I hope KU loses tonight so I don’t have to watch another game of this tournament on that ugliness. Well not really.



  • From the NYTimes. This makes the floor even worse:

    “As part of commissioner Brett Yormark’s mission to “intersect sports and culture,” the Big 12 teamed with clothing brand Undefeated, which has five tally marks as its logo, to design the floor for its men’s and women’s tournaments at T-Mobile Center. Sticking with that theme, the Big 12, which uses Roman numerals for its logo, plastered XII(s) all over the floor in a style resembling a Magic Eye illusion.” Yormark losing points by the dozens in the court of public opinion with the way he’s ruining our conference.



  • Iowa St COULD be in real trouble today with BYU. Lipsey is hurting with a Groin issue , shoulder issue , thumb issue - -& Gilbert still dealing with a groin issue, not saying whether they playing-- playing limited or what- - Gibert sounds less likely again not playing or playing much



  • BYU looking good early. Iowa State defense causing disruptions but BYU lights out from three and it feels sustainable at this point



  • Oops, Cooper Flagg rolled ankle. Time to eliminate conference tournaments.



  • WOW , fools Gold ?— -Fools Gold ? ? - -Iowa State-- -TEN made three point made- - -BYU-- TEN Three point made-- mercy these two teams look really good . Iowa St- -up-- 53-49 at the HALF- -really fun to watch - Curtis Jones Iowa St in the first half with Twenty Two points



  • BYU takes ISU down



  • Defense in KC? never heard of her 😀



  • @Zabudda

    Not surprised. BYU is perhaps the hottest team in America having won 9 straight and 13 of their last 15 dating back to February 8th. Very dangerous team heading into March if they continue to run the table.



  • Duke’s savior left their game today with an ankle injury and did not return (Flagg).



  • @BeddieKU23 Your right very dangerous. You just can’t key your defense on one -if you had to I would have to say it would have to be Saunders , but you just can’t. They play that five out . really spread the floor and not afraid to pull a quick three from anywhere, Made-Eighteen threes. No way would I want to see them in the NCAA’s



  • 18 threes and no one made more than 3! That’s so hard to guard. They’ve been super hot lately. The blowout over us is just the tip of the iceberg for big wins they’ve had.



  • Colorado staying right with Houston down 5 at the half



  • North Carolina won a battle with Wake Forest to basically knock Wake out of the tournament.



  • Elijah Hawkins “I always tell myself, I’ve been here before. I’m a dawg.”



  • I half dread and half gravitate toward every opportunity to listen to Jon Scheyer talk. It never fails to amaze me how dull, labored, and vanilla every word out of his mouth is.

    It is painful and hilarious that we all pretend he is conveying any useful information.

    Adults in peanuts cartoons say more.

    Cats in youtube videos are more expressive. Much more.

    Is it farce? Is it art? In the words of Bill “wtf are [we] watching?”



  • I hate Duke… but I’m bummed out on their loss of Brown and Flagg. Hate to see guys go down anytime but especially in March. Can’t wait for Flagg to go pro so I can become a big fan!
