    Goosby reminds me of Anthony Black. His offense has a ways to go, but his vision, size, and ability to play both the 1 and 2 is what's going to get him and keep him in the league until his offense cat

    That sucks. There have been so many foot injuries in basketball this season.

    Is this game showing up on the ESPN app for you guys? Edit - Okay, got it now. King McClure again. I don't hate the guy, but I don't love him, either. Don't love having a recent Baylor guy covering th

Uninspiring win by this free throw missing, soft rebounding team.

Hahaha

Big win! Love what the team is doing this year. Feels like Spears is contributing way earlier than expected. So good. And of course Isiah is worth the $$

But man that announcer was annoying. glazing the heck out of baylor and wouldnt say anything that we did well.

@Gerry Hamilton Is Miller one of the best great late game late shot offensive generator coaching today?

He runs the best half court offense we've ever seen at Texas. I don't know who would be second place. We don't have a lot to choose from there.

Gerry, did you like the close-out line up?

I loved that he put Headband on the floor to take a free throw if we needed it.

If you're only looking at this a a 3 point win against an unranked team then you're missing the growth. Does anyone remember the exhibition against St Johns? That game plus this hard fought win is what prepares you for March. It seems irrelevant right now, but I say Texas faced a tough test and had found answers.

He played at Baylor, under Drew, just 7 years ago.

They said early on Jay Bilas was supposed to be on this call, but had problems travelling because of the flights being grounded yesterday.

I like to call him The Headband.

Freeman took his off out of respect.

It's all situational

Would have preferred Spears Jr but I did like Freeman’s defense at the end. Freeman is better when he just rocks the Afro.

It is interesting to hear postgame studio guys talk about our coach being a real one.

This Baylor team is going to be good.

I've always hated Scott Drew, the whiny, hypocritical, wrap the bible around him while being a snotty nosed competitor. That stupid crap at the end where his player tried to pretend he was in the act of shooting is a perfect example of his antics.

But his teams play aggressive perimeter defense and they rebound. He doesn't have the best interior game, but you better bring your lunch pail against those Mingo brothers. And they at least have some interior bodies to throw at you.

They're not going through the season unranked. I'll tell you that much.

Elyjah Freeman growth on this team game ... he payed his ass off on D to close it out. Hit a big three, and clutch FT's

He's being a team player, too. Stayed locked in even with the lack of field goals and early foul trouble. We needed him. Very excited about his play. Very underrated key to our entire season and post season.

The guy laid on the floor like he had been knocked out and Matas never touched him. Then he is crying about how his kid was shooting a three. I will say this again. Barnes should have knocked him out when he had the chance.

I am with you on that one, brutha.

I can't stand the guy. I really can't.

Didn’t you yourself say that this team will lose 2-3 conference games if their free throw rate doesn’t increase? Now Couple that with how allergic this team is in getting defensive rebounds.
