Brillant coaching decision !

What a great coaching decision by coach Fennelly, with the sisters struggling in the first half, he benched all of the starters and put in five new players, and left them in for about five minutes, to give our starters a wakeup call. How many coaches would have the guts to do something like that ?

Totally agree Freddy! Also, kudos to those 5 that came in and played very well. They held their own, scored some points, and kept us in the game.

Agreed. Very gutsy call (and it was the right call) at this point in the season.

Actually the best coaching decision was double teaming the post out of the time out when we were up one after Ron hit that 3. They hadn't done it all game and it really suprised K-State...as they turned it over!

Well, G-Mac basically did the same thing Wednesday night in the 1st half. Granted, part of it was due to foul trouble.

Sometimes you just gotta get your team's attention. Sitting on the sidelines is a great way to do just that.
