I wonder if Tennessee had a shoot around today before the game.

If anyone is a real glutton for punishment, go back and scan through about the first 20 or so pages of this thread. Amazing how the wheels completely fell off based on pre-season expectations.

We are running an NBA style offense without NBA players. We had 5 last year and it was still a struggle. It’s like trying to run a pro style offense in football with a glorified TE as QB.

My biggest issue is the defensive end of the floor. We cannot contain the basketball. I don’t know if we are trying so hard to bring the intensity that Muss wants them to (trying to earn more pt?) that we are too close to the ball. After one dribble they are beat and the whole thing breaks down and we are in help/recover mode. And we aren’t very good at our rotations. We do get after it and Muss’ style of play isn’t the easiest on they eyes, but it’s effective when executed properly.

I’d be curious to see our assist to turnover ratio from each game. It was roughly 1:2 tonight. 9 assists on 83 points.

Wife just had baby #2 so I haven’t been able to watch every minute. When I do, it’s not real pretty on either end of the floor.

Are there rules/laws against NIL/collectives specifically for individual sports? Just seems like it would get more people to donate if they knew it was going to a sport they wanted.

I’m afraid my nightmare is coming true and our only realistic options for OC are Kenny Guiton and Jim Chaney.

Glad to see I’m not the only one. I like a lot of the G5 names being tossed around too. But, I need someone to convince me he isn’t the best possible candidate right now. Seems to check all the boxes most people are looking for.

P5 head coaching experience. This seems to be the main hangup on most of the other candidates. I’m not saying they have to have it, just one of the negatives I see thrown around.
Ties to Texas, Florida, and possibly some Ohio region recruiting.
Only making around $750k at FAU. Think his buyout is around $2 million.
Offensive minded coach.
Probably only coach out there that hates Texas as much as our fanbase. Would love the Texas melt every year we beat them with him on the sidelines doing the Horns Down. Missouri probably hates him after their bowl game a few years ago when he was mocking their QB.
Young enough to still have something to prove and not just cash a retirement check.

Also noticed he was Guiton’s OC as OSU. His stint at Texas wasn’t great, but has anyone been great since Mack Brown?

Traylor and UTSA just went to FAU and beat them 36-10 so there’s that.

Surely Yurachek realizes the decision to keep or let Pittman go and who his replacement is could cost him his job no matter how successful all the other sports are. Now if Muss gets a Final Four this year that could save him, but that’s about it.

We just need some excitement in the program again. Losing 6 in a row no matter how close they were has just sucked all the life from football. Our coach doesn’t have to win the press conference, they need to win games.

1st page for the early season championship talk, mid-season slump melt, and subsequent March Madness run! WPS!!

Seems like AJ needs more touches. I think he had good runs to start two series, got subbed, and didn’t come back in. He seems to be the only back right now with enough wiggle to make something positive behind this line.

YES!! That play epitomizes the whole night for me.
