Interesting. You're right. Why was it that Baylor did not have to make up the 4 lost conference games? They were 13-1 in conference play. We were 0-18 (ugh).
I was under the impression we took the whole basketball season off.
Agreed. I have no memory of ISU basketball last year.
We can only beat the team that is put on the floor. Think big 10 west in football.
Something is really bothering me with this TT game. Their coach, Mark Adams, has a checkered past. I followed his teams at what was once Pan American, and some bad things happened down there. Adams skated, in my opinion. Won a national championship in juco at Howard (Texas) and saw that team. He is a very good bench coach. He also managed the Lubbock hockey franchise, and they even got in trouble. Then he was a hoops assistant at TT. Always thought his dream job was that head coaching job at Tech, and now here he is. When I see him on the Hilton floor, I always think 'Not in OUR house.'
This could be one of the few years ever where the conference tournament is a better indicator of the best team in the conference than the regular season was. It should even out but someone could get lucky and have 6 or 7 conference games - or even more - facing short handed opponents.
This. The mbb team got drilled by covid last year as bad or worse than anyone. Certainly one of the plethora of things that led to 2-22.
Nope. Carver is just a reference point, and it represents the very bottom of the spectrum.
Carver is a glorified sinkhole. It is also quieter than a morgue. They should just fill it in and build something better on top of it.
