We just beat an 11-10 team by one point, losers of five straight. It's nice to beat WKU but keep it in proper perspective; they are not a very good team overall.

The first time we beat WKU in Diddle was our championship season. We also lost twice to ASU that year.

Like thieves in the night, we just stole that sucker.

Go mean Green!.

Stole, nothing... That was a freaking boxing match.

Awesome, agonizing, intense game. So glad to win. Amazing...

And we're only one game behind the pace of that season. We were 14-6 at the 20 game mark that year.

If you didn't see the game, on the no call there at the end our guy should have had a saddle on the WKY jelly player, but no call. Lucky!!!

Rick

He did indeed , but at the sametime Tristian was fouled on the 3 he took right before. A makeup call if you ask me

Shouldn't have been an issue because Tristan should have gotten a foul on the 3 point attempt. And the no-call on the play in front of WKU's bench was no worse than the and-one Tramiel didn't get on the layup.

Ol' Rick just doesnt want to give JJ and the boys any credit does he ? We stole nothing. They had to throw a 40 footer in just to send it into OT. I thought we were the better team and the game wouldnt have gone to OT if Eric wouldnt have been in foul trouble.

Rick loves this team, and he loves Johnny. He's just a little jilted, that's all. He'll find the passion again soon. :P

Ol' JJ should have had the boys foul before WKU even launched that shot. Poor.

Yep. Double teaming a guy 40 feet away from the basket as he takes an off balance shot, up by 3 points with time expiring... The smart play is to foul. Every time.

A shot like that is practically automatic, like an extra point or an uncontested layup.

While I would generally agree with you on this , the ball was in AJ's hand. He was 10/10 on FTs on the evening while only shooting 4 / 13 from the field , including 0/3 from behind the arc. Sometimes you just have to go with whats working

:lol: :lol:

Exactly. At that point you DON'T want to foul. If you're gonna try and prevent a 3 point shot you do it if the guy looks like he's gonna get a good look.

That was NOT a good look. Just gotta tip your cap to the kid.

‘Ol Calvin probably didn’t see the play, so he wouldn’t know that regardless of who else shoulda coulda woulda been fouled but didn’t, justifying this as a makeup call, our guy rode their guy like a mule all the way down to the ground and was lucky as hell there was no call. A much more obvious “no call” than any of the others.

With that said, I’m always glad to see wkyJelly lose to us in their house.

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I am torn on what to do with EM, but I know he needs to go. Many say we need a HC with head coaching experience at the FBS level. I know there are HCs at other FBS programs doing more with less, but would they come to a place where historically it's difficult to win consistently and risk it all if their eye is ultimately on a power conference job? Then if you take a P4 conference former HC, they have most likely been fired and they may not get the mojo back like Tom Herman at FAU or Charlie Strong. So, if that is the case where do we go? Many are saying no FCS HC or no more coordinators who have not been a HC at this level. Again where do we go if not those type of guys? My thought is that you may have to hire that guy that this board has been reluctant to go after. That's the guys who have had issues somewhere else and that's why they are no longer where they are. Lane Kiffin had issues and FAU gave him the chance to resurrect his career. Alabama gave Sarkisian (spelling) a chance to resurrect his career and he is doing good things at Texas. We have tried a lot of things, but we have not tried that route of HCs with some skeletons in their past. I feel that if that coach wins, people will forget about their past. I am sure people at Texas have forgotten about what went down with Sark at USC. Just my opinion because we have been striking out for a long time on HCs.

      In case you’re a Yeti collector

      YETI has a collegiate collection. I didn't get a chance to snag one of the above, so I'm hoping that UNT will become available on their website. Eventually?

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I'm not sure what the path is for Cobbs long term. A lot of us would absolutely love to have him in a HC role in Denton, but we want to see him gain HC experience first. Do we take a chance and give him that crown? Do we watch him leave, and possibly not return...ever?
