    What a horrible interference call overturning a force out at third and resulting in a run for Tulsa. The runs in the fourth inning by Tulsa are on the umpires. As a former third baseman and umpire, complete B.S.  

    The interference call on their catcher was just as bad. By rule, the umpires were correct, but it is a horrible rule and effected both teams and the outcome of the game.

    But we need some of the old farts to stop telling the energetic fans to sit down/be quiet. Those people should go sit up in the higher rows!

    Yep, they need to move up top, not complain or join in and stand up when appropriate.

  3. I would like to see our HS players developed. It seems like none have really contributed since Jones and Scott. Stone has collected some minutes but never found his offensive stride considering he was a 1,500 point scorer in high school.

  4. Great game. Couple very good plays by Gamble at first and Simon at short, plus a great throw by Rainey in left to catch a Tulsa runner trying to stretch a single into a double. Well played and pitched by both teams. Childers has been excellent the past few weeks.

    There are lots of names out there for that, Lifer! Cold shooting.  A dry spell.  There's some overlap here, but they are not always the same.  I equate choking to late game collapses.

    Instead of thinking maybe the other team made the adjustments it needed to, let's just pile it on those Ponies, right?

    Thanks for your opinion of choking. I disagree. I watched the game and they choked. 

    Never thought I would get in a back and worth with one of our own defending smuT.

    Why the jilted lover syndrome? He was a hired gun for us and a hired gun for KState. KState gave him more money and a bigger stage. Let him go live his life. We should be grateful for what he did here and that he is a UNT graduate but what he did at KState and how he said goodbye there should be no more than a passing interest for us.

    Hired gun?  Bigger stage?  Did KSU get more coverage this year than we did last year?  I know Big XII, but I don’t recall them being on television much.

    I didnt expect SMU to keep their coach going into the ACC, they spent a ton of money to get into that conference, why wouldnt they spend the money on a competitive coach that can recruit a new crop of players with their NIL money. 

    Then why didn't they do this two years ago when they knew they weren't staying in the AAC?  They would have two years in that system as they entered the ACC, now they are starting over. You can't spell CEsLmLuAR without SMU.

    It was closer to 11 minutes for that score, and anyone who knows basketball will tell you a 10 point lead with 10 minutes left is not safe.  There are choke jobs, and this is not one of them.

    I can tell you're intentionally reaching to dog pile on an old rival. 🤣

    Did you watch the game?  smuT gagged.  They were up 74-67 with 9:58 left to play and were outscored 34-18 from that point on.  Their possessions went turnover, Foul, missed three, missed three, 1-2 FT's, missed 3, missed 3, missed 3, 2 Fouls, Missed FG, Timeout, Made FG, Made Dunk, missed FT, Timeout, made two FT's, Foul, and missed FG.  They went from leading by seven to losing 101-92.  Choked.

  9. We need shooters.  TCU's starting five could all shoot and all ended up in double figures.  When our opponents can shut down Lampkin and Kernal inside, we have a tough time.  TCU's post, 6'7" Prince, was incredible.  Typically, and I don't mean this in a bad way, but a woman this size is not very coordinated.  Prince was incredible as was Connor that had an unbelievable shot.

    Never the less, I really enjoyed following this team this year.  They never gave up, always hustled and played hard and obviously enjoyed playing together.  They have a lot to be proud of and will look back on this year as something special.
