Houston Thread

[I.I.]

Got here early. Hope we have a good crowd. It has been advertised heavily with a Final Four team coming back here.

 

[I.I.]

Crowd already better than Temple crowd.

 

[Loca5174]

I’m calling a 2 point win for TU

 

[TU 1978]

It would so Haithlike to somehow win this game against Cellphone Calvin.

 

[nevadanatural]

Special K is in there rasslin with Carlton, I swear I saw an arm bar and a half Nelson.

 

[Loca5174]

We need more passing

 

[nevadanatural]

That starting 5 did a good job, they fought scrapped and didn’t back down. I hope the subs can keep it up.

 

[nevadanatural]

Down 10 now, this second group hasn’t scored a point.

 

[drboobay]

I decided to come. Skated over on my sneakers from my friend's house. Feeling foolish about it already!

 

[t-townpod]

We suck

 

[t-townpod]

However Houston is outstanding

 

[t-townpod]

Nice to see Houston ALLOWS a basketball financial support group

 

[hotterthanyourhusbandTU]

The Houston players look like the older brothers of the TU players.

 

[nevadanatural]

Shooting 21% so far and 0-4 from deep.

 

[I.I.]

Stat board out here.

 

[TU 1978]

Too bad Haith always inexplicably pulls the starting 5 when they are doing better than the second 5.

[Loca5174]

We are rushing too many shots

 

[t-townpod]

We are rushing too many shots

We have to cause we are slow and weak and don’t shoot well
How many blocks so far?

 

[nevadanatural]

We need Pritchard on the court against these guys. When he’s off we simply don’t score.

 

[drboobay]

Our players are playing hard and competing but if Horne and Griffin cannot score we have no chance.

[Gmoney4WW]

The refs have been treating us alright tonight, that's different.

 

[nevadanatural]

Good passing there to get Draine open.

 

[hotterthanyourhusbandTU]

Houston is getting wide open looks…all over the court. We’re struggling not to turn the ball over.

I feel like we’re down 30, but it’s only 10.

 

[nevadanatural]

Surprisingly we’re only down 3 in the rebounding department but still shooting only 22%. Draine is our leading scorer so far with 5.

Thanks only to them(houston) going cold from the field

 

[drboobay]

They are getting 3s but we are holding our own with the big guy Carlton and rebounding ok.

Any semblance of an offense and this would be a game. But that has been our problem game after game.

 

[I.I.]

Houston now is without their top three scoring guards. But they block all our shots.

 

[Loca5174]

These announcers suck

 

[t-townpod]

Close to great fight

 

[Loca5174]

Our shooting is atrocious

 

[TulsaAM]

Houston now is without their top three scoring guards. But they block all our shots.

This is the fact that scares me about how Tulsa is matching up against the Houston team on the floor. I have been watching TU basketball since 1978 and I have never been more disheartened for the future of the program.

 

[t-townpod]

Our shooting is atrocious

Our team is atrocious on offense. No passing no shooting and weak. On defense tough inside leading to wide open outside

 

[nevadanatural]

Our shooting has been pitiful, 9% from beyond the arc.

 

[t-townpod]

This is the fact that scares me about how Tulsa is matching up against the Houston team on the floor. I have been watching TU basketball since 1978 and I have never been more disheartened for the future of the program.

I’ve been watching since 1962 and feel the same!

 

[nevadanatural]

You know you’re doomed when that shot goes in.

 

[TulsaAM]

And just like that... Tulsa is down 17...

What a sad sequence with Pritchard on the bench. I would love to see Pritchard lead Tulsa out of the dark, but at this point I hope he transfers to a school where his skills will be properly developed

 

[t-townpod]

Just have no idea what the hell is up with TU.

 

[TulsaAM]

Just have no idea what the hell is up with TU.

The transfer portal now means you need to outspend on recruiting to compete now... schools like Tulsa will be left out in the cold...
