Who is the color commentator for the game on TV that keeps talking about defense.
 
He is overdoing it a bit BUT we do need to play better and more consistent D
 
I agree the defense needs to improve. Just curious because he said outside of Kansas none of them play good enough defense to get to the sweet 16.
 
I know. It's a lot easier to appear to play good defense when you have height guarding the rim. We are not great defensively (we all know that) but I thought Dykes was making a bit too much about it. We're certainly not terrible. Baylor presented some bad matchups for us.
 
Three big XII teams will make the Sweet 16 and five could

I want to see the bracket first, but I'd be pretty surprised if we had 3 Sweet 16 teams. Even more surprised if we somehow had more.

I think the conference will underachieve come tourney time, without some really good draws.

Of course you do. You are a negative reason but the world needs enlisted men.
 
As I said in the game thread, if this were a Duke-UNC game, all the announcers would be talking about is what great shooters these two teams have.
 
Our D wasn't even that bad. We held Baylor below their season averages in both points and FG%.
 
Also, we held Baylor 2.6 points below their season average tonight.
 
The Big 12 is very strong at guard play. That's usually a recipe for some success in the tourney.

I agree. And we have enough teams like us and ISU that can string a couple hot shooting nights together and roll through teams.
 
Back to the color guy. He was awful. Jimmy Dyke? I only saw the first half, but he made some really stupid comments. When they were talking about the travel issues he made a real awkward comment about the pilots being fatigued? And how "we're all tired"... What? Then he bagged on Woodard's outside shooting. Woodard coming in to the game had the best 3PT % on the team, over 40%. He had an off game, like 0-4, but geez, that guy is terrible. And the stupid comment about Buddy doing the 3 to his head. EVERYONE is doing that, moron. Why pick on Buddy? I have a feeling Dyke might be a Poke also. Not that there's anything wrong with that. HAHA

But seriously, he was seriously bad, and annoying.

Yes, Dykes made a fool of himself with his remark about Woodard's three point shooting. Shows he didn't do his homework before the game got underway.

Actually, Jordan has the third best three point shooting percentage on the team, just under Tyler and Cam. But when a kid is shooting almost 42% from three point range, you don't dog on him when he's having a bad game.

I kinda liked Jimmy Dykes, but he thinks way too much of himself. He's not nearly as good as a color commentator as he seems to think.
 
Folks! He lives in Springdale, Arkansas. Was/is the A.D. for SHiloh CHristian SAints. Huge supporter of the Hogs and has been an SEC color analyst for years. Should I say any more?
 
Kansas, Texas, OU and ISU have a decent shot of making the sweet 16.

You don't know how close you are....

Dykes worked for Sutton at Arkansas, Kentucky and Oklahoma State,
