Guessing he plays, was still in street clothes vs KSU. But I've read their boards to get an idea of his status and the consensus seems to be he's targeted the Baylor game all along which would be 2 weeks post injury

Yikes! Nunley just said our 2 point defense % is #287 in ncaa. I knew we weren't very good defensively but wow.

Not as bad as Oregon's court, but still bad.

I'll tell you what, that change of possession call was some BS

George jumped, threw the ball at TCU player who had one foot out of bounds, one in bounds.

I would think that is our ball, regardless if it came back and hit us or not.

Need better offensive rebounding if we're gonna put up quick 3's.

More than makes up for any home court advantage TCU may have. Without those 2 in the Waco game (especially Miles) we win by at least 20.

Hate that for Eddie! But man we were overdue for some luck as far as other teams being short key players

Lohner needs to learn how to block without fouling!

Lampkin is my favorite non-Baylor player in the Big 12.

I tweeted that during the NCAA tournamet last year, and he liked the tweet. Must have been searching his name, too, because I didn't @ him. Haha.

I don't think it matters vs tcu. They largely own us (not in basketball per se but generally)

TCU obviously watched the film from last time we played them, and we evidently did not, because they're still getting downhill against us just as easily as they did in Waco.

It's so easy to take us off the drive...gotta fix that..
