    I watched them play last nigth against Wichita St. and they can really shoot the rock. They have about 4 or 5 players that are deadly from long range. They have 5 players averaging in double figues and they play about ten deep every night. The best thing about them is the whole team consist of freshman and sophmores ( other then alan v).

    Pat Knight is doing a great job running the team thus far. They play much different under him then they did under his father. The players have much more freedom to shoot the rock and they practice on a ten second shot clock!! :eek: They scored 167 points in a game and they did not even go to overtime. :eek: This team is really going to be good for a few years to come. I think they will make the tourney this year. I am by no means saying they are a power house this year, but they look much better then anybody expected and they are very very very young.

    Tech will finish the season in the top 25!

    Pat Knight keep up with the good work.

    John Roberson has shown up for being such a small guy, he's not 5-11, more like 5-8 or 5-9 in person.

    I was stuck helping my dad on his farm and couldn't make it. It's a shame. It was apparently a really good game.

    Lamar is a bizarre team. Sometimes they look great, sometimes they lose by 40 to Kentucky or fall apart and lose to 0-5 Indiana State.

    I tried to warn them that 167 was no big feat for a Big 12 vs. a School for the Blind... They didn't listen and told me I didn't know anything about basketball... :confused:

    Silly UT fans dogging on Texas Tech because they can't beat Texas Tech at home with all their 5 star recruits... maybe when they do then all 8 of the people on this board that go to Texas Tech will care
