Big 12 Tournament: A chance to listen in
There was a sparse gathering at the outset of the opening game in the Big 12 men’s tournament. One benefit of no crowd noise was being able to listen in on the Texas Tech huddle at the Sprint Center.
Red Raiders coach Pat Knight shared a salty chat with his team in the early going. Though it was only a 30-second timeout, Knight managed to get off an impressive string of expletives before the horn sounded.
His team had it coming. The Red Raiders played atrocious defense early, falling behind 13-5 at the 14:46 mark. Evidently, Knight got through to his team, which had pulled ahead 35-31 at halftime.
The crowd gradually grew from maybe 1,000 people at the opening tip (11:30 a.m.) to roughly 12,000 by the end of the game, which Texas Tech won 82-67.
