We're playing with house money. From a committee perspective (yes I said committee) we already came out of this tournament smelling like roses and raised our stock dramatically. A game with a top ten Memphis on a neutral court can't possibly hurt us whatsoever. It can only help. On that note, root for Memphis, even though they probably won't need it.
Basketball (Inhales deeply). Feels good man.
FWIW while they were a weird team they still won a Big 12 tourney and had some good moments...the 18-19 team followed the Alamo Bowl football season.
This team is doing what many have been saying for years "play some defense!"
Now we are doing it, hustling and defense should be there every night, offense comes and goes, but not the other two.
Fun to watch us playing hard on every trip down the floor. Just a great team win.

Memphis game could be fun. We're playing with house money right now and nobody expects it to be a close game. Our defense might just allow us to hang around for a while. If so, watch out.
Ok, I think I was wrong about Memphis. I didn't realize they have two of the Top 5 freshman, they must have committed extremely late. They look like an NBA team out there.
And, like I said earlier, they will be playing with confidence. That's the best part. That's why beating a ****** Oregon State game is worth a lot more than just the win. It made these guys believe they could play with a Power 5 team. They believe they can win and that is fun to see.
Looks like it’s a website where you can purchase warranties for various devices?
Gives off big time scam vibes.
I caught the 2nd half of tonight's win over Xavier. I know Brockingon had the hot hand but I was most impressed with Hunter. That kid is a baller. Great to see ISU back to being an exciting team.
Welcome back from the abyss.

Kind of is what it is at this point. I was kind of hoping we would sit him until the last TV timeout of the half after his first.
On a brighter note he looks so much better and more engaged under TJ. He's literally twice as good as he was at any point since maybe the very beginning of his sophomore year. He's actually a pretty good 5 man and yeah it'd be nice to keep him on the court. He gets some silly fouls for sure but IMO he gets screwed more often on cheap BS ones too.
He doesn't get enough credit for his range on defense. He actually has the ability to get to just about everything on the floor and in the air and it backfires on him a lot because if he couldn't get there then we wouldn't even be having this discussion. But he does, and he's always getting whistled right or wrong.
Brockington is going to have a lot of nights like tonight. He already has multiple times this year
