Before the Baylor game CDH said that the K-State game “didn’t make sense” to his players, but the Baylor game “makes sense” to them!!!
Never in my now getting older life have I heard of such non**“SENSE”**! Every game should “make sense” to the players and the coaches. In today’s environment where the players are getting paid to play along with FREE education, room, and meals, there is no excuse for such attitudes and it MUST fall back on the coaches.
The team, players & coaches, should prepare and play EVERY game as if it “makes sense”! See our men’s BB team.
Perhaps CDH can coach but he is a LOUSY motivator, ambassador, and recruiter for our team. He needs to go.
Many say that the players like him, but what would we expect them to say … and besides, the players would like having Beyonce as their coach.
I could see this make sense if we’d been in the big 12 twenty years and we were playing a school like KState, Iowa State, etc where our players don’t know any guys on the other side. I know he made a statement about our players, and Baylor’s, knowing each other. First year in a big conference though. Where you want to prove you belong. Every game should have some feeling behind it.
I understand your comment but I am going to cut CDH some slack on this. With Baylor in Waco, many players on both sides are familiar with each other and want bragging rights. UH has no history with Kansas St. and has no rivalry with them. Part of pregame preparation is mental. I’m going to assign blame, if you can call it that, on the coaches and on the players.
During the postgame, it was stated that it was essentially [culture shock] and that it would take a few years getting used to the environment… in other words, Texans hate the cold? The smell of manure?
So its gonna take a few years to get used to OOC games. I mean if we have to be familiar with someone to get ready. That seems to be what he’s saying. Dana is a gymnast if nothing else. He can wrap his words around stuff like a slinky.
