Maybe you’re right, it’s not like I’ve coached a team before. Just trying to connect the dots after several really close road losses.I don't think a coach drawing up a game winning play happens as much as you seem to think it does.

It’s funny that only two teams in the Big 12 have been competitive in every conference road. One is West Virginia with no road loss exceeding 7 points and the other is Iowa State with no road loss exceeding 5 points.I'm all in on TJ but we do need to start asking some questions on why we are constantly on the wrong end of these one-posession road games.
We have 1 legitimate road win where I thought we controlled them the entire game. The TCU went exactly like the other 4 league losses only we got lucky and got bailed out by Gabe at the end.
So thats 5 out of 6 league road games where we essentially are blowing it at the end.
We have 3 more chances so we'll see if this trend continues.
You mean like the Iowa and Missouri games? What's going to happen is I'll chalk it up to the other team being hot that night and move on.What is going to happen to you when we lose by 10+ on the road
Interesting logic there. The close wins are all luck and the close losses are cause we suck. We have been in every conference road game until the end and we've won 2 and lost 4. Go flip a coin 6 times and see how often you get one side twice and the other side 4 times. Spoiler, it will happen a lot. If ISU keeps in it until the end some of them will go there way and others won't.I'm all in on TJ but we do need to start asking some questions on why we are constantly on the wrong end of these one-posession road games.

I think that aspect of coaching is important, but it's pretty overrated. It's all a tradeoff. You can be a really set-heavy team, and chances are you are probably going to tend to better at running a set to get a shot at the end of clock situations. Not always, but that's going to be the case most of the time. Some coaches are pretty good at both letting their teams read and react with simpler offensive actions and also have some money plays they execute well when they need to. But I'd say those aren't super common.I don't think a coach drawing up a game winning play happens as much as you seem to think it does.

Ok, well its great to know I'm wasting my time watching games that will all be decided by a coin flip at the end and has nothing to do with the two teams.Interesting logic there.

How in God's name did we blow last night? LolI'm all in on TJ but we do need to start asking some questions on why we are constantly on the wrong end of these one-posession road games.

Umm, we have possession of the ball with 15 seconds left down 1 and we end up losing by 5? That's a choke job.How in God's name did we blow last night? Lol
I don't think it's as unprecedented as you would like.You mean like the Iowa and Missouri games? What's going to happen is I'll chalk it up to the other team being hot that night and move on.
That's not what I'm talking about here, I'm talking about the constant inability to close out a game we shoukd have won. This is 4 straight that we've lost and had numerous chances at the end. That's unprecedented.
Ok, well its great to know I'm wasting my time watching games that will all be decided by a coin
You are such a troll. Its not shocking that you are once again up to your antics after a tough road loss.Umm, we have possession of the ball with 15 seconds left down 1 and we end up losing by 5? That's a choke job.
What would be unprecedented would be him not throwing a tantrum after a loss.I don't think it's as unprecedented as you would like.
So its on the staff for missing a layup with 8 seconds to go....on a play that I feel like everyone universally agrees that Grill was tripped on. It's a choke job for not winning down 3 with 7 seconds to go. I mean come on man....you can't even believe half of the stuff that you are actually writing.Umm, we have possession of the ball with 15 seconds left down 1 and we end up losing by 5? That's a choke job.
What?? Lol no. Choking is what happened in the TTU game. What you just described happens in probably every single close victory in basketball.Umm, we have possession of the ball with 15 seconds left down 1 and we end up losing by 5? That's a choke job.
I didn't say a word until the Oklahoma State loss this year.What would be unprecedented would be him not throwing a tantrum after a loss.
Grill got fouled for sure but I could see why refs missed it with how clueless they were the rest of the game.So its on the staff for missing a layup with 8 seconds to go....on a play that I feel like everyone universally agrees that Grill was tripped on.

I watched it this morning. Worst game of basketball ive ever seen on both sides.A tough road loss he hasn't even watched yet. Keep that in mind. He's complaining about a game he didn't even watch.
A player being frustrated in the moment and a fan acting petulant the next day are not the same thing.Grill and Holmes were clearly frustrated and throwing tantrums late in the game last night also but fans aren't allowed to?
