@KySportsRadio Iowa State is a great example of what coaching does. Not sure why we didn’t make the Iowa state coach tell us no after cal left. He’s the guy we should have went after.
Also…wouldn’t have to recruit…wouldn’t be his own GM. Doesn’t have to be the angry motivator some young college guys need…could be the Ted Lasso of the NBA.
Somebody tell me this is a crazy theory.
What if…and I know it sounds crazy…but I truly think Mark Pope would be a better NBA coach than college coach. Substitute rotations are easier. Game is longer and halftime adjustments have more time to make an impact even down big.
If he’s the offensive genius we’re told…
The Noah ankle tweak injury stumbling on Mark Pope is THE illustration of this season. A few great wins this year, but Pope has hurt this team every bit as much as he has helped them. @KySportsRadio
Astronomer Robert Jastrow (who is not a Christian) explains how the Big Bang supports the idea of a Creator:
“Astronomers now find they have painted themselves into a corner because they have proven, by their own methods, that the world began abruptly in an act of creation to which you can trace the seeds of every star, every planet, every living thing in this cosmos and on the earth. And they have found that all this happened as a product of forces they cannot hope to discover.
That there are what I or anyone would call supernatural forces at work is now, I think, a scientifically proven fact.”
― Robert Jastrow
“Far from disproving the existence of God, astronomers may be finding more circumstantial evidence that God exists.”
― Robert Jastrow
“There is a strange ring of feeling and emotion in these reactions [of scientists to evidence that the universe had a sudden beginning]. They come from the heart whereas you would expect the judgments to come from the brain. Why? I think part of the answer is that scientists cannot bear the thought of a natural phenomenon which cannot be explained, even with unlimited time and money.
There is a kind of religion in science; it is the religion of a person who believes there is order and harmony in the Universe. Every event can be explained in a rational way as the product of some previous event; every effect must have its cause. There is no First Cause. …
This religious faith of the scientist is violated by the discovery that the world had a beginning under conditions in which the known laws of physics are not valid, and as a product of forces or circumstances we cannot discover.”
― Robert Jastrow, The Enchanted Loom
“Now we see how the astronomical evidence supports the Biblical view of the origin of the world. The details differ, but the essential elements in the astronomical and Biblical accounts of Genesis are the same: the chain of events leading to man commenced suddenly and sharply at a definite moment in time, in a flash of light and energy.”
― Robert Jastrow, The Enchanted Loom
“For the scientist who has lived by his faith in the power of reason, the story ends like a bad dream. He has scaled the mountains of ignorance, he is about to conquer the highest peak; as he pulls himself over the final rock, he is greeted by a band of theologians who have been sitting there for centuries.”
― Robert Jastrow, God and the Astronomers
The boos last week weren’t for playing bad…they were playing heartless. If you play hard you make “luck” that heartless play will never generate. #ukbball
I like Stoops. Our program has grown immensely from where he began. But even if we get a 6th win, how do we keep repeating the disaster that is EVERY last 2 minutes of the half in EVERY competitive game? It’s not fixable. 13 years of data is enough.
@JackPilgrimKSR This is why…even if he wins enough to remain…we’re never breaking this cycle. It’s why bowl or no bowl I don’t know how we can keep doing this with Stoops. We will never improve this part of our play, and it’s THE ceiling for our program.
@JBrown_YL@LucasTompkins5@NOHSFball@NOMustangs And…didn’t he miss pretty much the entire sophomore year with a season ending injury? My goodness…what would his career stats have been with another full year of play? What a year for this young man!
@JBrown_YL@NOHSFball@ColinHd2007 …and…3 or 4 key injuries in the first two games of the season that this team has had to overcome! Phenomenal season by everyone @NOHSFball
Play calling and coaching decisions. You kick those last two field goals…you’re still in the game…so frustrating. We’ve been doing this off and on for 13 years. It’s been the thing with Stoops from the beginning. Nominal improvement for a few years. Now back to the same stuff!
