I feel like Teahan should have to run the fieldhouse stairs twice a day for a week over this.

Teahan is a super senior who was wearing a mullet and mustache.
His major this final year was tail.

Just missed the cut but is on 2nd team.
So he has between a 3.0 and 3.2 which is still pretty good.

I could tell you a tale of all the tail I scored but then I'd be full of hot air.

It would sure be refreshing to have a postseason that wasn't either (1) marred by an injury to a big, or (2) cancelled all-the-fuck-entirely.

Well, since you posted it in this thread, I have to say it makes zero fucking sense to play Dave tomorrow if he's at all at risk to aggravate the injury and/or needs the rest.

2 game cushion and a full strength team is worth outrageously more than the difference between a tie and outright.

You go tell Bill that. Now is probably fine, at least no cocktails yet.

I might rest Dave too.
He could not jump for rebounds last game.

Somewhat sounds like 'giving up' on the Baylor game and you most definitely should not - but with that two game lead you might want to focus on not slipping up at all with the TCU x 2.

Bill put Dave back in against KState when the game was out of reach. I don't get it. He's clearly getting worse, healthwise

Yea.
Maybe he's been told it's not something that DMac can aggravate and it's just something he'll have to deal with ROS.
Even then, we were boatracing those cats, let the frosh play.

Not that I think it's what motivated Bill (slapping Bruce around was it), but I do think that to the extent the selection/seeding process is reliant on metrics, the metrics need to be adjusted to blunt (or even mute) things that happen when the point differential is fifteen (or something) or more.

You shouldn't be incentivized, for selection/seeding purposes, to keep your starters out there.

I'd agree.
I do think there are formulas out there that caps or curves blowouts and their effect on the total efficiency score.
Not sure that NET does or not.

And then after game said Dave aggravated it and is questionable for Baylor game. Made no sense. Bruce was trying to run anyway (lol btw).

On the other hand, you win this game and you just need to win one of your last three...so you could rest dudes to your hearts content after.
