I hope the 7 foot 4 star we recently signed knows how to go up strong at the rim - just to see what it's like to have a true post player that can do that


We signed a 7'4 guy?

34% as a team, isn't gonna cut it against good teams. Hopefully Flag finds his shot at some point
We're not going to win many games when George and Flagler shoot a combined 22.7 percent. That needs to change to have a chance in this one.

No. He's a 7-foot, 4-star recruit.

For what it's worth, Rivals has him as a 6-foot-11, 5-star recruit.

Cryer takes GOOD shots. George throws up wild shot after wild shot.

Texas hasn't shown me anything, we're making it easy for them. 10-12 missed points off missed layups and refusing to dunk. I think we get a run going and win this by 3-4.

Missi is a legit 6-9, maybe stretched to 6-10 in shoes. Very thin. Very athletic though. Seen him several times.

Stating the obvious but it really would have been helpful if either Loveday or Turner had developed enough by now to be able to contribute a few minutes in a game like this.

Did I just see Bridges tackled as he went in for the layup or were my eyes deceiving me?

How's that different than the trip that led to a jump ball?

And why is he defending Higgins so much?

Texas isn't that good.

A good team would have blown our doors off at home with this effort.

Bridges breathes on Allen. Foul. He's hammered going for a lay up no call. I hate Higgins

That's why Higgins did the makeup
Call

Higgins sucks. As always. Apparently Higgins is catching more heat than usual

He used to be a big 12 bag man for a lil ***** (Barnes)

They aren't that good but playing better than us. However, it is 5 on 8.

We can't blame the refs tonight. We've been objectively bad.
