I fear this team is going to have a lot of wake-up games.

Strikethesteel

4:30pm

Agree w/ wake up calls but Egor would get drafted even if not a lottery pick.

Soupie

4:31pm

Maybe. But KY failed to find a player to help his team at this point.

4:35pm

Good. Maybe we can show up to the 1st round of the Dance already awake for once.

At the end of the 1st Q women are up 20-13 at #18 West Virginia.

brj8 All-American

4:23pm

That's good, but they'll likely give up a double-digit lead in the 4th Quarter..

lbmango

4:27pm

Probably the best possible time for this game to happen...

lbmango

Sure, but the providence game was supposed to be the wake up call

Different kinds of wakeup calls. Providence is bad, Houston is great.

This video is very strong evidence that Egor & Catching should strongly consider

I think there’s an argument to be made that that’s a bad thing for the program

Yes. This was always going to be his last season.

Biggest travesty in KVN’s career is not winning MVP in the Super Bowl. He

BYU got socked in the face and had no game plan

kinda crass way to put it but yes they did

We will see how good coaches are

Archaea

Coaches found out today who is toughest--Catchings...and they will find out more

Plantagenet

I’ll take a 30 point loss to Houston vs 20 point loses to LMU, Pepperdine, UOP, etc. God bless the Big12.

cougarfanatic All-American

That's supposed to make us feel great? Getting curb stomped by .500 Providence

Forzaitalia

4:18pm

Yes. I mean losing sucks but losing to low end wcc teams was soul crushing. Everything will be just fine.

cougarfanatic

It should. Losing to WCC opponents creates the narrative of "BYU isn't that

The kind of announcers CB wants when BYU is on offense...

Missed the game. Anyone have a non sarcastic cliff notes version? I assume no

ColonelMustard

4:06pm

Save yourself the agony.

Archaea

4:07pm

Houston's defense was absolutely suffocating. We had zero offensive rhythm.

Banjo

4:09pm

BYU didn't handle Houston's defense well

Belboz

4:09pm

None of the vets stabilized the team.

Archaea

4:10pm

Turnovers galore. UH getting rebounds galore. No penetration for BYU. Smothering D by UH.

Soupie

4:09pm

You mean whack-a-coug defense. Thats Rick Majerus D. Foul, foul, foul every pl

byukarl

4:14pm

Too many turnovers, gave up a lot of offensive rebounds, UH unconscious from 3.

LeGrandBleu

4:10pm

BYU’s offense and defense was pathetic

DizzyDean

Overwhelmed early by defensive pressure/physical play. Got mental. Never recovered.

BYU got run out of the gym from the opening tip

Lifi

Here you go.

YSMACK

4:17pm

Today sucked but I am not giving up on the team

Archaea

4:06pm

Not time to give up. Time for KY & staff to work out issues, starting w/handling

Forzaitalia

4:09pm

Focus on physicality and adjustments to offense

Archaea

4:11pm

Everybody's good out on the perimeter but no one knows how to drive.

Plantagenet

4:23pm

It would be dumb for anybody to give up on the team. I see two teams(possibly 3)

Schrodizzy

4:30pm

Anyone know any stores that have eggs today?

rockhound

Walmart (in Lehi) seemed to have no shortage of eggs earlier this week.

Eggs are only on Fridays until further notice.

They have a coach that teaches physical defense and rebounding--leading to

Plantagenet

True and he recruits guys that he thinks are capable of doing what he teaches.

That was probably our toughest conference game. All downhill from here.

Skeeziks All-American

Iowa State ...

YSMACK

3:59pm

ISU is the best team in the league so far

JoeExotic

4:00pm

Yeah. One of those two.

@ Iowa State will be tougher. I’m biased but we are incredible this year

Few's first season at Gonzaga ended in the sweet sixteen...

Wasn't he a long-time assistant before he took over? Not sure that's really

Don_Juan_El_Guapo

I'm one here who thinks Pope was excellent for our Program on many levels.

SinkingQuffa

4:10pm

Me too...the hype was that KY is a giant step up from Pope thus the HUGE payday

Don_Juan_El_Guapo

4:14pm

I'd like to think KY & our team has a lot of potential to be strong by March

SinkingQuffa

Polecat

4:10pm

So - you’re going to look at one variable & ignore the rest?

Eddie

4:01pm

I'm looking at one variable because EVERYONE is saying this is his first year...

Don_Juan_El_Guapo

4:04pm

Plenty of other factors at play here including a major lineup change of coaches

Hammurabi

4:25pm

I believe they will get there. But it may not be as fast as we would like. There are quality college coaches on staff

Bob Vance

4:02pm

May not even be this season.

Forzaitalia

4:10pm

Few is one of the best coaches in the country.

JoeExotic

4:02pm

Got it...so KY isn't that good and Few created a team that went to the sweet 16

Don_Juan_El_Guapo

4:06pm

Yes Few had been at Gonzaga for 10 years, had helped build it and probably knew

Polecat

4:09pm

With an existing team and tons of college experience. Wrong analog.

That isn't/wasn't a reasonable expectation.

BYU'01

I’ve realized that recently. Going for health and not trying to be an athlete.

Powerbait DPM

I think most people don't train enough. I think very very few newbies ever overtrain

Longbow Cougar

If you’re 30+ & not training I don’t count you as a ‘newbie’. You have to train.

BYU'01

In general, correct. But this is an error:

Buckeye

I’ll edit as Coggan is has better credentials than me but 75% of LT seems high

BYU'01

1. Not training. 2. Not training frequently. 3. Not training intensely.
