Does any one have a video of the Caleb Grill foul late in the second half. From where I was, it didn’t look like there was even contact.

Osun had a really nice game, Lipsey was great all around, Tre didnt light up the stat sheet but he mixes it up on every rebound, he's an important piece going forward. Feels good to beat Baylor, they had been a monkey on our back.

They definitely were at the end of the Hoiberg era and early Prohm and ISU got them good in the '19 b12 tourney but after that Baylor's just been really ****ing good while ISU's been awful except for last year haha.

Hopefully this game is up for replay viewing soon. That's just a much needed win in general.

Gabe naysayers who never laced up can be quiet now.

Lol ok. One good game doesn’t make him Steph Curry. He has a ways to go before I have any confidence in him shooting a 3.

Hope he can be consistent. The team is a shooter or 2 away from being super special.

Haven't read the entire thread, but being at the game.............Tre King makes a HUGE difference. Maybe his stat line doesn't jump out.....but having that type of player against the Baylor's of the world really helps Kunc or no Kunc.

Only critique I have......and it's a small one, but unless he is just playing out of his mind.....need to find just spot minutes for big energy. It isn't just him and George this year......there is depth down low. Sometimes he seems a fish out of water against this type of competition. Osun, Tre, Hassan and even Watson matched up very well against the Baylor bigs. Not ragging just my thoughts after seeing the game.

Also.......wife and I were busting a gut after that last three went down watching how fast people were out of their seats and on their way to the parking lot olympics. Never change Hilton.

I think people have to get this idea out of their heads that Gabe’s only good games are when he shoots the 3 well. Those are his great games. He is taking it to the basket more this year and always plays some of the best defense in the Big 12.

Can the PA guy quit with the announcing Big Rob Energy every time he comes in the game. It has gotten old and is just annoying now. Especially when days like today he didn't have too much to do with the win.

He was on the floor several times, did a good job keeping rebounds alive. I think he played with a ton of energy.

His and 1 late second half was big. The guy plays so damn hard, he’ll be one of my favorites all time. Some limits, sure, but he gets after it and it wins. Love the guy. BIG ROB!

His PER is last on the team among players that actually play and he is 3rd to last on the team in BPM. Analytics can tell a better story than the eye test. Analytics don’t have preconceived biases.
