This guy has been bashed all year (myself definitely included), and deservedly so at some points. But he manned up and played GREAT in the 2nd half tonight. If he played within himself and drove the ball to the rack instead of jacking up step back 3's more often we're a very, very tough team!

This OU game is huge and we're gonna need CA out there. Go Clones!

Exactly what I've been going for out of CA. Now he's got some confidence, let's go. (under control of course)

I have been hard on him, but he was a MAJOR factor in why we won tonight. His second half play was great.. 15 points, 5 rebounds and a few of the rebounds were key ones too.

Chris Allen was outstanding tonight. He did everything well and played through some foul trouble. If he plays like that, takes good shots, and plays defense like that he is a great player. Good job Chris! Keep at it!

Re: Some love for Chris Allen

Nice to see CA out there in crunch time. McGee didn't have his A-game today and it's very valuable that we have 4 guards who we trust at the end of the game.

Also, 11 good minutes from Percy in the second half.

I dont think anyone is saying that Allen cant play, I think they are just upset with his shot selection. Allen was huge tonight.

I haven't ripped him. He's a damn good player and he's been sacrificing by playing out of position all year. He'd be great if he could play SG and off the ball all game with a legit PG.

Glad he's a Cyclone.

Only saw the last play of the game. I have been an allen basher. If you say he id his job then thats good enough for me. Good job Chris Allen when you do things like tonight you are loved in our beloved Ames. Way to go!!
