If it's a problem and he can't do it on the floor he shouldn't be playing.
High rankings playing is how Texas football got to where it is. Its dumb, you play who can and sit who can't regardless of the ranking in high school before they left for other colleges.
Urbancic should get a lot of minutes next half. He won’t, but he should. We aren’t coming back to a respectable final in this one.
Oh we can argue because we haven't seen them. Haywood and KES are by far the worst +/- players we have and it's not close. You don't need to be a basketball genius to see it.
That charge call was so soft with how this game has been called, and the houston guy was in the restricted area
This officiating is weak. We get clobbered on rebounds, no call. They flop and they call a charge on Early in restricted area. Early has a much momentum as Joe Biden going up stairs.
The circle is strictly for the second/help defender, a primary can still draw a charge if it would normally be one else where on the court.
What are you talking about? If a player is inside the arc he can’t take a charge period, that’s the rule.
I’m not watching, doing kid bedtime stuff, but this box score reminds me of the Woj vs Calipari games. I don’t miss those, and I effing hate this one.
Oh well, there’s bigger things in life. Spent the past month with a serious possibility I had cancer but received a clean bill of health this morning. So life is good!

Glad you're ok. Plenty to be thankful for!
No it's not. If you are backed down/posted up under the circle in college you can still draw a charge. The rule is constructed to prevent help defenders or closing players from stopping under the basket to draw a foul. In the NBA the rule is different.
Put Earley and Urbancic in and let them play.
Secondary defender only. Primary defender can draw a charge in the restricted area
Team should feel embarrassed. Starting with Haith. Honestly, the only player I like is Jackson.
That was kind of my point with Gold. If KES or Haywood are having issues (injury, personal, whatever) let the kids play and see what they can do. It won't be worse. You can always sub back with the older two. But Nevada got to a sweet sixteen undersized and playing six. With out Haywood and KES our rotation is seven. I think Earley deserves a chance to prove he can play. Otherwise let a couple of our freshman play and at least get game time to start their own process.
They are going to get lumps one way or another. Don't let them get crushed but they will learn a lot about themselves and the level of play needed.
Honest question because I may have missed it: At any point in the first half did we take a time out and run a set play to try to slow down one of their runs?
