Texas played a lousy zone last night...

[PeteCalvin]

Chaka had two blueprints to go by on how to beat KU. He could have left Bamba to patrol the paint by himself and extended the other four to stop the threes. Instead his guys fell for the pass to the FT line and allowed the reverse pass to open shooters. Then they tried shooting threes for threes. What a wasted opportunity. KU won because of three pointers, and they were on fire.

How do you waste one of the best big men in college hoops like that? Ugh.

BTW...how about that ref following Chaka to the bench just egging him on so he could blow the whistle. College has officially become AAU. That's how refs act in those leagues. Dude should get a talking to by the BigXII. That's embarrassing.

The high post is only a weak spot in the zone if your coach insists on having the guards collapse. Not sure JB will ever change his approach there.
