It's not even a commercial flight requirement. My daughter lost her ID in San Antonio and was able to use other means to prove identity (credit cards, school id and sign an affidavit) so she could fly back to LA.

I don't get why they still wouldnt let him on. "This 6'6 guy says he's with the basketball team and everyone vouches for him, should we let him on? No, its against TSA regulations, high probability he's a terrorist".

There should be a graduate assistant specifically tasked with keeping track of the little things that can go wrong. :)
The lost ID does not make a whole lot of sense, I have lost an ID while travelling and was able to get on a flight. You have to present several other forms of information.

He must have lost everything, ATM card, Student ID, etc.
And I guess they were presssed for time.

The guys were really pushing the ball down court hard today and that is probably part of the reason for some of the TOs. OM did a lot of trapping on the perimeter too, which forced some long cross court passes. ISU handled the pressure a lot better in the second half and it resulted in a lot of shots at the basket. Overall a great game for the Clones. Love the fact that they have so many guys that can handle the ball and switch seamlessly on defense.

Ok coach, then tell me why he didn't get minutes in 2nd half.

I guess I'm curious how you thought he was having an off game. Was it the turnovers like somebody else said?

Solid win for the Clones, on the road against the #20th ranked team and we win be more than 10. This win will help our NET rating. Great shooting overall, but turnovers and rebounds will kill us when we are not shooting at a high level.

Big 12 starts the challenge 3-0, the ISU win was then only one on the road.

I think he played the first 7-8 minutes of the 2nd half. Things were going well. Maybe CSP just saw an opportunity to give him some rest and play others, especially considering how well Wigginton and THT were playing.

Good for Coach; glad he got others mins.

Not a travel

I wish officials would get together and agree to quit calling traveling when a guy starts to take off with a dribble from a stopped position. It is called so inconsistently as to be unfair, so just stop it. And if a guy moves his foot one inch 20 feet from the basket, it has no effect on the game.

Instead, start calling it on all these guys that take three steps going to the basket. That actually affects the game and the score. Even if our guys do it, I want that called because it matters. This alleged shuffling of the feet as a guy starts his move is meaningless.
