    Here's the deal. Of course we will beat Tarleton State, but only by 7. We will need to keep Freddy Hicks to a mild roar. Billy Gillispie has been a solid recruiter. He was once Coach of the Year in the Big 12 and Co- Coach of the Year in the SEC. Our very own Mark Turgeon took over for him at Texas A&M as Billy headed to Kentucky for 2 years. A 40-27 record was not okay and they fired. him. It's not okay with me for the Shocks to dare lose to them. The Shocks really need to establish some semblance of an inside-outside approach because jacking up often 3s early is not working.

    Shocks 77

    T. State 70.
    Shocker basketball will forever be my favorite team in all of sports.

      Funny thing. TS has a player named Rod Brown who used to be at Wichita State.

      What would not be so funny....a motivated Rod Brown leading all scorers in an upset win.

      I mean really, this is like the crossroads in the desert when the planecrash survivor dude gets off the island after a three year friendship with a volleyball and a beard down nearly to his bellybutton. And he chooses one way to go but the viewer is left to wonder... what happened. This game could go one of about, not just 2 ways, or even 4 ways... gotta be like a zillion ways.

      I just hope the team can put together a 40 minute game and find a way to share the ball in the halfcourt, rebound well, and maybe, hopefully hit some shots, and somehow win this game in front of more than 4500 fans.

        Really?

        Dang man. That’s depressing. WSU has jilted exes everywhere.

            Well, Rod's a traveler. This is his 4th team.

                      This won't be a pretty game or outcome. Hoping I'm wrong, but don't have much faith in the team or coaches right now.

                          Brown is averaging 3 minutes played per game. Which means he’ll play 30 and drop 25 and 10 on the Shox.
