Seems contradictory to say “they are more athletic than us, more skilled than us, and more aggressive than us” and “their superior athleticism/coaching” yet every time we play them it seems to come down to the last shot and we seem to win about as many as lose. They obviously aren’t taking advantage of their superior talent and coaching.

Player: “Give me a shot and I’ll show you what I can do.” Coach: “Show me what you can do and I’ll give you a shot.”

Hit a 3 pointer at the buzzer to beat them at home = we’re awesome. Miss a 3 pointer at the buzzer that would have tied them on the road = we suck. This seems to be what I’m reading with a few exceptions. Make it make sense.

Hahaha. I don’t think I really believe it, but I had the same thought. Possibly my greatest Mean Green moment.

Master troll job.

My opinion of Kinne is independent of Morris. Not trying to deflect or take a shot at Texas St. I think a “C” is a fair grade for Morris.

I stand corrected. Should have read the article.

I hear you, but I still bet their record against other P4 wasn’t dominant. I just picked a random week in Nov. and it looks like the win percentage was around .600. vs other P4. Obviously good, but not dominant. To your point, I’m sure several of those games were neutral court instead of away which, as you said, makes the record look even better.

Similar to football. They beat up on FCS schools in non-conference and then start beating each other in conference so everybody thinks they’re all great. My guess is that basketball is probably around .500 vs other P4 conferences, but maybe I’m wrong. Don’t really care enough to look it up.

I feel exactly the same as the writer does about Kinne.

Yes it is!!

But is it subtle when everyone knows it’s coming?🤣🤣

I would think most people agree with your sentiment, but when it’s your first post after every win… Anyway, not meaning to be an ass, just trying to be honest.

I didn’t downvote you, but I suspect the downvotes are coming because your post is…

Love it!!!🤣🤣🤣

I’ll probably find myself hoping ND wins. I at least like Marcus Freeman. Wonder if they would be the first national champion to lose to a “G5” or equivalent?

4 QB’s in the portal??? Very unlikely they would have even had one on the roster for the bowl.

Definitely need a rule to stop the faking injuries, but I don’t know if I like sitting the remainder of the drive. My big objection is that “rest of the drive” could be one play or 15 plays. Maybe have to miss a certain number of plays? I don’t know, but there needs to be something. Too bad coaches can’t just play by the rules instead of manipulating things to their advantage. Actually, this isn’t really manipulating the rules, it’s outright cheating because you know there’s no consequences.

I hope it doesn’t have a similar effect on the basketball team.

I don’t mean this as disagreeing with you, just as a thought. I think a big draw for TxSt fans is that this is new for them and they are excited about the direction of their program. In five years if they’re still going 7-5 and playing UNT in the First Responders Bowl, there won’t be near the excitement in San Marcos.

No doubt it will never happen. Just wishful thinking.

If Congress wants to help, they should require the NFL and NBA to fund their own minor league systems and let college athletes go back to being amateurs.

For some reason this reminds me of the Yogi Berra quote, “Nobody goes there anymore because it’s too crowded.”

I thought they only had 5 days after the bowl game to enter.

In fairness, his losses are to teams with a combined conference record of 68-19 over the past two seasons. We’ve gotten a bad draw of playing the top 3-4 teams in conference both seasons in the AAC. Not really disagreeing with you, just pointing out we’ve played all the best teams aside from not playing Navy this year. I haven’t looked at other team’s schedules, but I’m pretty sure we’ve had the hardest conference schedule the past two years.
