Former Coach

Based on season play State has to keep Baylor under 80 to have a chance.

Could it have something to do with the coliseum? Several years back they had to adjust the schedule because it was booked the week they normally held the state tournament.

They are going to promote the DC but for some reason are dragging their feet to do it.

It wasn't appealing last time it was open that's how we ended up with Lemo.

I honestly look for State to be one and done, and Janz on the way out. He has been mentioned at a couple places. Just too much inconsistency defensively. I think I saw that we had only lost maybe 2 games when giving up less than 80 and 1-10 giving up more than 80.

Baseball is a long season. A lot of it is like they say in MLB, you ae going to win and lose 50 games no matter what you do, it's what you do in the other 62. Same here, You are most likely going to win 10-12 and lose 10-12, but what do you do in the other 15. Right now when State gets good pitching they win. Got to find two more guys for Saturday and Sunday. I don't think it's Ligon and Simmons are the answer.

He needs to sit a few games and try to get it out of his head. He has had some big games for us over the years but struggled for the most part last year and has been putrid this year. Can't hit the breaking ball and almost refuses to hit the ball to the opposite field. Throw him hard away and mix in good breaking balls and he is a very easy out. Should have been PH for his last time up the other night.

If Jay has full authority for this hire I expect it to be a good hire. Although he hasn't been an AD he has been in the business as and assistant and Head coach at major universities and knows what it takes to build and sustain a program.

Matthews has been non existent on offense since the Kentucky game. I think he maybe took 2 or 3 shots last night. Offensively they rarely attack the goal with an inside post or dribble drive. It's normally high ball screens, without the roll to the basket, or pass and dribble until they have to throw up a prayer. Hubbard did attack several times lase night. And please, if you are 6'10 and and get to the rim rip the goal off the backboard. On defense we double when the ball goes inside or try and trap the dribbler, both which lead to wide open 3 pointers. People talked about Coleman hasn't shot like that all year. He probably hasn't been left wide open like that all year. It was the same the Kentucky game. I would rather take our chances 1 on 1 and possibly give up 2 points than leave the 3 wide open.

He is applying for a red shirt, but that doesn't mean it will actually be at State. Hopefully it will.

Any movement on any of these jobs?

Unless the half court offense, or lack there of, improves it is going to be a long disappointing stretch.

we'll call it a tie.

If State doesn't get fast break points or offensive put backs they struggle offensively. They may have the worst half court offense in basketball. Al they do is pass or dribble around the perimeter. No one attacks the basket, no dribble drive to draw the foul or then kick it out. That's why SC shot triple the FT that we had.

Have heard he is not the only one to have turned it down. Maybe someone knows for sure
