  1. I don't think anyone doubts the effort, but the concern is were they able to get it done? Is this on paper a better defense than last season? I think that's at least questionable. And I hate to say that because I really think the offense is going to be one of the best we have had.
  2. I think people underestimate what a great player Josh Wheeler was. Yes he had injuries but when he was on the field he elevated the level of performance for the entire defense. I think we added some pieces but we did not replace Wheeler.
  3. Yes but looking at the two deep itbis hard not to wonder his status and their expectations of him. If he’s healthy and can contribute it would be a big boost to the team depth.
  4. Pohl was good initially but siding with the crooked provost spelled his doom. The faculty basically ran Pohl out of town as I recall. Would you not agree Neal holds pretty strong faculty and admin support?
  5. Here’s the sad truth, Baylor did benefit immensely from Briles and his sordid ways. Beyond their performance in the field, in the Briles era they funded and built a new stadium, had their first Heisman trophy winner, increased donations to historic levels and won more games than at any time in their history. We now learn Briles was paid millions even after his crimes came to light. So who really lost here? The victims are all accepting settlements to stay quiet going forward. There have been a lot of empty threats from the NCAA and Big 12. The assistants like baby Briles have been welcomed back into the coaching community as if nothing happened. Ken Starr is on TV as the expert on impeachment proceedings and not one Network brings up his Baylor issues. Just like the Dave Bliss deal, time will erase the memory of this dark chapter and Baylor will be just fine thank you very much.
  6. Friday night at the Super Pit, a roaring crowd of 6,291 chanted, cheered, jeered and celebrated as they watched the Mean Green (20-18) win the College Basketball Invitational Finals 88-77 over the University of San Francisco (22-17) in the winner-take-all game three.

  18. Yes Lehigh! Thank u.
  19. Hope McCarthy is ok. Funny — your post got me to thinking. At the game last night I commented how much more athletic we were and how they looked like an old school Naismith type of throwback squad. They certainly have more height but we can out jump them. It’s one of the more interesting matchups I’ve seen in awhile. They sort of remind me of an ivy type team we played in the Pit under Benford, can’t recall their name... they had brown jerseys.
  20. San Antonio will host the men's college Final Four this weekend, wrapping up a basketball tournament that will make hundreds of millions of dollars for the NCAA and its member schools. To mark the occasion, The Texas Tribune reviewed the NCAA financial reports for the state's eight major college athletics programs. Those schools are the University of Texas at Austin, Texas A&M University, Texas Tech University, the University of North Texas, the University of Texas at El Paso, the University of Texas at San Antonio, Texas State University and the University of Houston — all of which play in the top-level Football Bowl Subdivision. Most of them failed once again to generate a profit. Below are some other details that grabbed our attention. Note, however, that these stats are for the 2016-17 sports year. Data for this season won’t be available until 2019. read more: https://www.texastribune.org/2018/03/29/ut-austin-once-again-revenue-king-texas-sports-basketball-success-give/
  21. Gotta cover #2 better - he’s a very good shooter.
