Wichita State vs Memphis (01/19/23)

[Dan]

I expected to be down 12 at half so I’m happy where we are despite some really boneheaded plays. If we can get Rojas back and get Pohto comfortable we have a chance. (I can’t believe I’m saying that about Rojas).

[Kel Varnsen]

Terrible end of half possession.

Other than that, I’m not terribly disappointed with the way we’ve played (I know that’s a low bar). But we’ve done some decent things.

[ShockTalk]

Nope, we have a solid 5,000 fans, the rest support winning teams

Stick it in your ear Dan . I've given my fair share to the program.

Gus is stout, but he's earthbound

Gotta love the ESPN coverage during halftime…here’s some canned content that has nothing to do with what you’re currently watching. Budget cuts I guess?

Honestly, they’ve done this for a while. But it’s really annoying. I like CBS Sports Network because they actually report on the game they’re broadcasting.

According to the play by play, in the last 5 minutes of play Memphis had all the rebounds, 5-d and 4-o. Once IB put Scott and Abidde in at the same time, score 22-15, Penny went max pressure and the game flipped.

[pinstripers]

We are 28.6% from three and 28.6 overall

Walton bringing the ball up against the press, because Porter is weak. He stuffs the stat sheet, but does not lead to winning. Dumb passes, and then vanishes. Point guard is an issue.

That looked like an Etienne-inspired "play".

[Kung Wu]

In fairness, he can’t handle Memphis’ size and length. He shouldn’t play.

If he goes out and can't execute due to mismatch, yank him, but he's carried our asses on those tiny shoulders enough games that he's earned the right to prove himself a couple possessions.

Besides, sometimes the short shits give the big shits trouble.

Pierre is killing us

[Kung Wu]

Pierre ... oof.

[WstateU]

Leave him on the bench.

[Kung Wu]

Bell ... oof.
