Or have the managers on mop duty dress up like Inspector Clouseau
I barely noticed officiating in our OU road loss (or @BYU or the two losses in the tournament). @OU and @BYU were stressful annoying games to watch but it wasn't like officiating was some huge hurdle for either team to overcome.
Second half of TCU win is the one game this year where we definitely had to overcome officiating more than our opponent did. Against KSU it was objectively horrible officiating most of the game but if they took off the purple tinted glasses they'd see some absolutely crushing calls that did just much damage to ISU as the calls they are upset about. If we had lost the game people would be going nuts about King's fifth foul that was two KSU players running into each other and flopping while taking a basket away from ISU.
Here's what I can't quite figure on this. Your average basketball timeout is, what, 2 minutes? So in the course of that 2 minutes someone is going to take a picture, send it to a staff member, that staff member is going to review their phone , figure out what they are looking at, explain it to a member of the coaching staff (because you obviously can't just show them a picture on your phone mid game) and they are going to draw something up to stop what they've seen? That makes absolutely no sense.

Not to mention, the cell service in Hilton is garbage.
This whole thing is insane, but let's not pretend that IF we had some elaborate huddle stealing relay we wouldn't be using WIFI
This the problem, we know the accusation is baseless but now it's out there. Regardless if it false or not it sticks in the back of people's minds. Similar to accusing someone of sexual assault even though there isn't any proof.
The staff WIFI in the lower bowl is bad. Source: I use it during Wrestling Duals with 1/3rd the amount of people and its still slow.This whole thing is insane, but let's not pretend that IF we had some elaborate huddle stealing relay we wouldn't be using WIFI
Can we give the floor maintenance supervisors (the mop guys) plainly visible earpieces and ray bans? Secret service would be proud.
I mean, technically timeouts are a minute or 30 seconds by rule. I suppose media timeouts may be a little longer. There is just no way you could feasibly do any spying and coach your team in 60 seconds. All their fans seem to think it's more just recording the huddle to get an overall sense of the gameplan, which would become pretty evident from just, you know, watching the damn game. Who knows.
They are off their rockers with this stuff and the more attention it gets the worst these morons are going to look because it is getting to the point where the universities are going to have to address it in some way. You've got several news articles out about it now, and both coaches are going to get asked lots of questions about it by the media.

Pete Mundo put this out yesterday. Here is the last line of the article:
"Oh and for those wondering, Iowa State is 12-0 at home and 2-2 on the road this season. And if nothing else, it’s a great, new chapter for Farmageddon on the hardwood."
Oh a college basketball team is better at home than on the road? No ******* ****, Sherlock.
Johnny Orr must have been doing this too, his winning % was much higher at home vs. road.
Anything with that quoted text isn't really an article, just a message board moron pretending to be part of the media.
I guess we can go back and void all of KSU's wins all the years (most years) they had a way better record at home than on the road.
ROFL that's about the dumbest thing I've ever heard.
For those wondering, Kansas State is 10-1 at home and 2-2 on the road this season.
TTU, Houston, Kansas, and Baylor are all undefeated at home this year too, they have road records of 1-2, 2-2, 2-2, and 1-2 respectively.

They wish it was a well called game? So do we.
Great! Just fixing the single worst call of the game puts 2 points on the board for ISU, gives them back a fouled out starting forward, gives them back the second best free throw shooter on the team to close out a close game in the final two minutes.
Right? I mean, look at the away records in big 12 so far this year.
Only one team has a winning record. Only one team past that has a .500 record and they've only played 2 road games. They'll have a tough task staying above .500 with a trip to Norman tomorrow.
Winning road games in the big 12 is never an easy task.

I tried listening to Mundo for a bit and I found I didn't care for his podcasts at all.
I don't believe we flop a lot, but the way our guards throw their heads back whenever bumped certainly looks coached to me.
Texas has a winning away record. According to this picRight? I mean, look at the away records in big 12 so far this year.
