Even if he's from Slovakia?

Sneaky damn Russkie to actually be Slovakian! I think he stays at Mar-A Lago.

 

[BigLame]

Literally Brodzianski's only move is a slow right hook and it's worked at least 5 or 6 times.

Maybe make him play over his other shoulder just once?

 

[TheJackWePack5]

The back up point guard has 8 points 16 assists.

Embarrassing.

Anybody recording this game?
Look at our score at the 10:04 mark. It goes from 61 to 59 for no apparent reason! And nobody caught it!

Look back a few minutes and it had done the opposite.

 

[crawfy54]

These guys have never seen a ball screen, apparently. Disgusting defensive effort.

I saw that too! WTF? Happened right after Wiggs made a 3 I think.

 

[madguy30]

They are getting cut to pieces. Absolutely lost, and the sad thing is, they do seem to be trying. They just have no idea what to do.

Credit TCU for being real crisp too. That's different than the pace Baylor plays with.

I saw a replay of an ISU game from 2013 or so this summer. Fred's teams simply didn't play much defense, this is more frustrating since ISU looks like they're attempting it.

16 assists!?!?

TCU’s #34 is rocking a very interesting type of mullet. I hope he lost a bet or something, because nobody just wakes up and thinks that haircut would look awesome.

I noticed it when it happened but figured they were correcting an earlier error. ESPN not exactly Johnny on the spot with their scoreboard. I think it took them 3 minutes to give us our first points against Baylor

Maybe Robert Mueller could put some D on him.

 

[fsanford]

Solomon has a real quick first step. He's gotten so much better on offense.

He just is not a great finisher around the rim. As that last play illustrates.
Not sure what the issue is

I have seen a lot of bad defensive efforts from teams that really didn't care about playing a ton of defense as an Iowa State fan for 40 years. But holy hell this is right up there with the worst defensive effort I have seen out of an ISU team. Don't challenge 3's, don't stay in front of anyone, allow post position and entry passes wherever they want it, pick and roll is just a total comedy of errors. We got guys out there that don't know where their guy is and just watch the ball. Just a really really bad effort defensively, as bad as any I have seen. And keep in mind, TCU is really really bad defensively as well.

 

[dirtyninety]

I hate the Russian

Prohm should have reminded Brase of the Soviet ethnic cleansing of Memel and East Prussia and he might have played tougher defense.

 

[TheJackWePack5]

Why is brodziansky always allowed to move or lean on screens? I have seen a lot of calls for way less in games this year.

I have said that multiple times during this game.

Frustrating.

It's the "hair net".

 

[Cyclonepride]

Just not our night, and TCU played very sharp.

I can tell you this: I felt infinitely worse about this result a year ago.

 

[TheJackWePack5]

Lol a guy that averages 10 points and is 26% from 3 has 21 points and is 5/6 from deep.

Just goes to show you how easy it is to shoot open 3's.

 

[CloneGuy8]

Everyone in the program should be embarrassed with this.

 

[I-stateTheTruth]

Have 16 of Robinson's 17 assists been on pick-and-rolls?

 

[ISUCY23]

We didn’t come ready to play. That’s on the coach.
