Probably a rebuilding year , we need to pick up a good big man then I will feel pretty good about next season

 

[nevadanatural]

I think this is going to be a nail biter ‘til the end.

 

[TU4ever2]

Refs don't like us for some reason this weekend

 

[Loca5174]

SOMEONE COME GET THIS ANNOUNCER AND GET HIM A JOB WORKING OFF CAMERA

Lucky for you he does a lot of AAC games lmao

Ya, think I’m just going to put the tv on mute this year and listen to Bruce

 

[I.I.]

Game similar to yesterday. Big lead, lose it all and more. Close at half. KES offensively tough. Rashal needs ball at high post to start his moves. Idowu is only post option till Earley ready. Disappointed we still don’t see Urbancic. After my enthusiasm he will come on and turn it over three times. Lol.

 

[TU4ever2]

If we can't get our offensive flow going, maybe we need to speed up the game with some full court or 3/4 pressing. Lots of choppiness that may just be rust and lack of rythm. Speed the game up some and you could bust through that.

Joiner either needs to start being aggressive and attacking or sit. Williams is giving us much better play and opening angles on their defense that gets others going.

 

[Gmoney4WW]

Haywood must be a great practice player.

 

[URedskin54]

Haywood must be a great practice player.

He can shoot, but we're not going to see that if he keeps taking exclusively 30 footers. Doesn't look like his head's in it right now

 

[TU 1978]

Danny Manning halftime. Where’s Wojcik?

 

[drboobay]

Haywood must be a great practice player.

Amazing how he is basically invisible. Didn't he average 7 at GA Tech?

 

[cmullinsTU]

Man... at this moment we have ZERO depth at the 4 and 5.

Need Rachal and Idowu to play as close to 40 min as possible. Hopefully Earley gets healthy soon. I see no positives, through 3 halves, from Ugboh, Richie, or Haywood.

Richie would be a huge help from behind the arc if he could get open and play defense well enough to see the court.

 

[Gmoney4WW]

Amazing how he is basically invisible. Didn't he average 7 at GA Tech?

Yep, 7.5 first year, a little over 8 second year. He should be 8.5-9 for us, instead he's playing the part for Ralph Ellison.

 

[cmullinsTU]

I think everyone is being too hard on Joiner and not giving him credit. He’s a nice player, he shouldn’t be the starting PG but will be until Williams can fully lead all 5. I think that happens this year but it won’t be game 2 of his career.

 

[I.I.]

Why start Ugboh and Haywood which gave the other team 4 quick points???! Come on Frank.

 

[URedskin54]

What was the thinking that led us to start Ugboh and Haywood for the second half and give away our first 3 possessions?

 

[Gmoney4WW]

We're so patient.

 

[TU4ever2]

Need focus.

 

[Gmoney4WW]

Make up calls for the first half, all of em. Refs are actually calling the game. Have to adjust from no calls.

 

[Gmoney4WW]

Ugboh gets one.

 

[Gmoney4WW]

Thank god they turn it over a little more than us, but we're gaining.

 

[TU4ever2]

William's has to learn to be in control, but he attacks with determination and a goal in mind, shot or pass every time.

 

[TU4ever2]

In the bonus, even more important to attack space and the man on offense.

 

[Gmoney4WW]

Get Haywood off the court, you don't travel to pull up & shoot a three!

 

[nevadanatural]

Is there a game on? You couldn’t tell it by these announcers.

 

[TU4ever2]

Haywood

 

[URedskin54]

Dumb shots and dumb turnovers. Liberty smoked these guys. This is not a game we should lose

 

[GoldenCaneKC]

So many TO’s...

 

[Gmoney4WW]

Manny's looking a little better the last 5 or so minutes.

 

[TU4ever2]

Turnover festival in KC today. Stop spotting up for shots. Attack the rim, go to the line, get some offensive space from their foul trouble, tighten down on defense.

 

[I.I.]

The announcer must have dinner with Haith and Joiner a lot.

 

[Gmoney4WW]

Tie it up at 49, get the ball, and turn it over!

 

[URedskin54]

Allowing the fouling team to choose the FT shooter after they knock a player out of the game could be the dumbest rule in college basketball.

Great play by Joiner. Hope that gets him going

 

[drboobay]

Yep we are in the bonus already.

 

[I.I.]

They are overplaying. Have to drive but only Jackson does it well.

 

[libertychamp]

Haywood

Why will they not bench him

 

[TulsaCane12]

Brought it back to a tie game. Hasnt looked great but we can still pull it out

 

[Gmoney4WW]

They are in the double bonus early, they are, calling it tighter. Run it, fast break right at them every time.

 

[TU4ever2]

Much better from Joiner. Double bonus we need are most aggressive and athletic team in for the next five minutes. We can run away with this game if we just make them defend.

 

[nevadanatural]

We’ve missed 6 free throws.
