Play with passion and urgency for 60 minutes and this team can play well into March.

BTW, at one point early in the 2nd half, we had missed 11 FTs, only missed 1 the remainder of the game. We were 1-8 from 3 to start the game, and hit 3-5 down the stretch. 5 scorers in double figures. Shaq with 31, SWANNEGAN WAS A BEAST! Swannegan, 6-7 from the field, 4-6 from the line, 5 rebs, 1 asst, and only 2 fouls. Woodard struggled but made the big shots when they were most needed like a star should. Birt is going to make us tough. Curtis, solid overall although the shooting % wasn't there.

Why does the team need to play an extra 20 minutes of game time with passion and urgency? ;)

Great comeback win, Shaq refused to lose! I believe we play Sunday @ 5:30 PM (Tulsa time), & it will be on CBS-College Sports.

Crap...I think I am still stuck in football mode and the Play a full 60 minutes mantra.

EDIT: PLAY A FULL 40 WITH PASSION AND URGENCY

Don't get fired man. Lmao so funny I'm in tears lol

I had to shut my office door, I managed to stay quite but I was getting so animated (maybe including a middle finger to my monitor) that I probably would've gotten in trouble if someone walked by.

Also a big plus from this game, Rashad looked to have a serious injury in his leg but was able to get his ankle taped up and come back in to finish. We need him so its huge that he was able to finish the game.

Things like this really show you what kind of character team you have. Can beat a top 10 team but can also get laughed off the court so far by one of the worst teams in the nation. Talk about getting full of yourself due to a November win. Embarrassing.

That seemed premature.

We got some tough guys and it's great that they can keep their composure

Sour grapes from their coach after the game:

Yes, tough and experienced. The old cliche that was used when I played, and is still used today, "When the going gets tough, the tough get going" was spot on today. Harrison was a monster and it was infectious.

I've literally seen ******s sitting in the unemployment office working harder than Frank is working at his job. Giving this lazy ****** the job is one of the biggest embarrassments in school history.

I think you gotta start firing people after a disgraceful game like this. There's no way a competent coach allows his team to beat a top 10 team and then lose to a sub 250 team in blowout fashion.
I was on the road when all of this was taking place, or this guy would have been banned much sooner. Thanks to WD for taking action. There is absolutely no place for the racist comments, attacks on TU coaches/players, etc. The great thing is that after all that garbage he posted, Haith and TU came back from 19 down to win the game.

Also, thanks to all those that used the "Report" function to notify us of what was going on.

Chris: can you tell from the IP address whether he was an "alter" of one of the usual trolls?

So storyline of the first several minutes is Ohio basically unconscious. It's not like they are uncontested shots either.

Our newcomers all look more comfortable in game action than what we've seen in a couple of years.

It's fun, Junkie. I know exactly what you are referring to. Get ready for the real action starting around 4:30 remaining in the second half. You may, like I was, be jumping up and down.
