It's almost officially my favorite time of the year.

 

[TulsaRising1]

Let's go!

It's almost officially my favorite time of the year.

Time to b!tch about a team and coach you never see in person for five months?

 

[Gold*]

I’m not going tonight either. Wife bought concert tickets months ago. I will find a way to post Game Thoughts tho.

 

[TulsaFan01]

This is exciting!! Coach said everyone’s good to go expect Korita. Said his body is a little banged up but excited to see what this team could do this year!! GO TU!!!!

Ha. Ha. TU basketball is my one true sports love. Football is wonderful but it comes second for me.

If I complain it’s out of passion and desire to see the team succeed

 

[goldenhurricane2]

The court looks great!

 

[goldenhurricane2]

Starters:

Taplin
Jeffries
Moore
Igbanu
Jackson

 

[TU4ever2]

Game is on tune in app, it's Bruce radio call.

 

[I.I.]

Zeke Moore starting out like Ricky Ross 2-2 on threes, one board and forced a jump in one minute.

 

[goldenhurricane2]

10-0 at the under 16 timeout. Moore has two nice 3s.

 

[I.I.]

5 new players at 16:00.

 

[cmullinsTU]

Yessss, I have it on TuneIn!!!! It’s like a Christmas miracle!

 

[I.I.]

Simon Falokun candidate for newcomer of the year.

Simon Falokun candidate for newcomer of the year.

Whoa, that impressive already?

 

[goldenhurricane2]

21-3 at the under 12. New guys are looking good. So is Jackson. He’s hustling.

Also NSU sucks ***.

 

[I.I.]

Jackson attacks the rim great but outside there are other options.

 

[cmullinsTU]

TU up 21-3... unfortunately we are terrible in the 4th quarter, probably give up 3 TDs and still lose!!!111

Seriously though, regardless of the competition level (I know NSU is D2 and a bad squad at that), it feels good to have a TU squad dominating like this.

 

[cmullinsTU]

Is TU playing exclusively in zone on defense?

 

[astonmartin708_rivals]

I see that Jackson started. Getting a lot of positive comments from Bruce and Rollo

 

[goldenhurricane2]

Is TU playing exclusively in zone on defense?

No. A mix of man and zone.

 

[goldenhurricane2]

We’re seeing entire line changes as subs.

 

[tudirk]

Korita in street clothes

 

[goldenhurricane2]

Korita in street clothes

He’s injured.

 

[I.I.]

Barnes a lot like Jackson. Athletic and attacks rim.

 

[goldenhurricane2]

We’re shooting 57%

NSU is shooting 10%

 

[I.I.]

Coach said Taplin struggled in la Tech scrimmage and hoped he would do better tonight.

 

[nevadanatural]

He’s injured.

I hope it’s minor.

 

[goldenhurricane2]

I hope it’s minor.

That’s how Haith made it sound on the pre game show. Didn’t sound serious.

 

[I.I.]

Scott draws fouls better than anyone.

 

[goldenhurricane2]

Our FT look improved from last year

 

[I.I.]

NSU has hit 2 corner threes in a row.

 

[I.I.]

Hewitt and moore great fast break.

 

[Tulsafanzz]

Love Jackson’s hustle plays on both ends of the court.

 

[URedskin54]

How does Joiner look physically? Is he looking in better shape/fully recovered from the injury

 

[Weatherdemon]

Are we really 2-11 from 3?

 

[TU_BLA]

TU up 21-3... unfortunately we are terrible in the 4th quarter, probably give up 3 TDs and still lose!!!111

I do recall a Haith squad losing to a bad D2 team a couple of years ago.
