Wish I understood what we are trying to do on offense. Hunter finds a wide open Enaruna, he neither shoots nor drives to the bucket. I guess they hopefully know what they are trying to do on offense.

Has anyone kept track of the points off turnovers on us? Seems like it is around 10 points or so. Clean some of that up and play just a little better D, we might be able to pull this one out. Stay sloppy, we lose by 18.

Maybe its time for TJ to go the Juco route and FIND SOME SHOOTERS!
Probably don't need to go JuCo. But IMO it would be very worthwhile to take a couple guys in the portal next season who may not be elite defensively but can put it in the basket/get enough attention from opposing defenses to actually generate some open looks.

It’s halftime, and I’m calling it a loss to TCU. Too many dumb turnovers and bricks thrown up at the basket.

so tired of watching Conditt, Enaruna, Kunc, Jones holding the ball at the key with no chance of scoring and 75% chance of turning it over.
We get maybe one bucket out of that action a game and probably 5+ turnovers. TJ has to come up with something else.

Ya'll need to relax. WE ARE GOING TO WIN THIS GAME. We had a crappy half. It happens.

I think we make a run, but I don’t think this team is built to come back from 11. You need offensive firepower to do that, which we don’t have. We used to; that’s how we came back against OU when we were down 20 all those years ago.

Gave up 52% from the field in the first half. We've got to force them to jump shots and hope State plays well enough on offense that they come back to us.

TCU will need to fall apart like this week. They had that one too and just sort of wilted but OSU looks like they have some tough matchups too.

Worst halftime act ever

TCI out toughed us in the 1H. You have to give them that. ... But it will not happen in the 2H. You cannot succeed out tough an Otz coached team on its own court! ... Hand on to your hats for a BIG 2H!!

There's very rarely any urgency on the offensive end. I think (hope) that's a strategic thing based on limitations this team has and not something the program will have as an identity moving forward.
