He's a decent enough guy down deep, he deserves to have the end be a 'mutual' deal. Clean for all parties.

Mutual deals don’t happen in the world of CBB where coaches need to always have 3 years left on a contract for recruiting. He’s probably crying because he realized this means he’s going to have to coach another game in Indianapolis.

Don't understand why you don't miss on purpose when you are ahead and the o
TCU WOW!

OKST missed FT might've doomed them
They should have missed the second one on purpose. TCU had no timeouts. Made free throw gives the opposition a chance to run a play from the baseline with no time running off clock. ISU did the same thing at Arizona. If OSU and ISU intentionally miss second free throw TCU and Arizona would not have had time to make those shots.

And while KState didn't want to miss their 2nd FT last night up 3 on Arizona with 3 seconds left, their miss meant that Arizona had to take it the full distance (which Caleb Love wasn't able to do last night).

The rule is simple. You should intentionslly miss the 2nd FT if you are protecting a 1 or 2 point lead with only 1 to 3 seconds left.

That’s true, but I’ve seen players intentionally try to miss the second FT and register an airball.

ASU is another athletic team that just needs a night to put it together so not surprised they've hung around.
