Let's judge Archie and the team at the middle of the season at least. Gotta agree with you. But it still sucks to see after years of rebuilding, I had to see our teams got annihilated by a good D-1 team. A loss is a loss, but I think it matters how we lose a game. A 10-point loss? I can take it, but a 22-point beatdown? It's hard to swallow in Archie's year 4. Maybe UT turns out to be a contender later this year, then I feel less bad about this loss. We'll see.

IUFLA Posted December 1, 2020 Report Share Posted December 1, 2020 2 minutes ago, CincyHoosier said: Texas played like pretty much every Big 10 team plays - physical, tough defense. I don't think this offensive performance bodes well for the rest of the season. I know its one game, but the patterns were there the previous couple years - the offensive outbursts like yesterday are the exceptions. The long droughts and poor shooting are the rules. No team in the B10 has the talent and athleticism Texas has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsidehoosier Posted December 1, 2020 Report Share Posted December 1, 2020 This made me laugh “Good news is that after 2 games we know for sure Lander is a 4 year player. I’ve seen better shooting at Lifetime Fitness. “ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is, Texas has a TON of talent, is very deep, experienced and I think Shaka is finally growing into a Power 5 coach. Let's get a few more games under our belt before we write the season and CAM off. The 81 team was 7-5 and lost to Pan American Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he constantly continues to play this way this year.....he won’t be getting drafted by any body but over seas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calihoosier Posted December 1, 2020 Report Share Posted December 1, 2020 I do like Rob defensively but our starting point guard needs to be able break down defenders with the dribble. I understand he is fundamentally sound but his dribbling is very underwhelming compared to yogi were you can feel he could blow by any player which in turn open up the offense. That’s what missing in this offense this is why lander needs to start I understand defensively he’s way below average but Archie needs to evolve he can’t stay the same course he is on or we he will keep having these results while we as fans keep hoping some different positive result happening because that is the very definition of insanity.

CincyHoosier Posted December 1, 2020 Report Share Posted December 1, 2020 You want to know the biggest problem with this performance? This team just showed us all they are perfectly capable of playing exactly like those frustrating teams of the last 3 years. I mean exactly.

NCHoosier32 Posted December 1, 2020 Report Share Posted December 1, 2020 So I said this in the game thread and I am waiting to get pounded for it, so I'll say it again... a popular theme on this board is that recruiting rankings or numbers don't matter. I'd like to point out that according to 247 recruiting if you take TJD out these are today's starters rankings coming into college: Race 134 RP 135 Franklin 151 Durham 230 I still say talent matters. Not really advocating to fire CAM after game 2 of this season, but would be okay if we knew of some home run hire like someone mentioned before. I just don't think that opportunity is there. Unfortunately this year's freshmen are nice role players and we are facing one of our most disappointing recruiting classes ever in 2021. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ledies22 Posted December 1, 2020 Report Share Posted December 1, 2020 some of these comments are absurd. BTW #4 Virginia lost to San Francisco. Bennett has been there 10+ years. I gotta stay off these post game threads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
