Given the weather, is tonight’s game in jeopardy?

A little bit of a slow offensive start but we are finally finding the net. We are up 10-2 and playing with some emotion. I like the fight.

I'll add that I like the emotion but our tiredness is also showing a little.

He came off the floor in the 1st half and took off his shoe. Was worked on for a while then came back in. Didn't look too serious. Ankle sprain maybe but looked like instep or bruise.

It's hard to stay focused when your opponent is so outmanned but we really played a sloppy game. Let's hope that isn't catching.

Isn't it nice to say played sloppy, yet won by 29 points! 5 years ago, Joe would have loved to hear those words. Can we play better, absolutely, but this team had little prep time for this game. Played in Corpus on Monday, after a game at Lamar on Saturday. Rarely will a college team play 3 games in 5 days this late into the season, but we did and we won all 3 and by an average of 19 points. This team is GOOD! Let's enjoy this ride

What I liked about this game was that we fought through our tiredness and continued to just harass. That is the team we are. We used that energy to break away and share the ball. Even though it got sloppy at times, HBU just couldn't keep up with that. It was a game that was needed at home to help feed that energy. It gave some of our younger guys time to learn the system with more than just 1 minute to go. Our young guys have a ways to go, but I see how good our tops layers are as a team when they play together. It gives me hope for the final stretch when we may have to grind through some really tough games.

Indeed the starting lineup and first substitutes seem almost identically capable of great defense and a pretty strong offense. Kohl makes a difference as does Pleasant as big men but I have to say, every game, Simmons shows shockingly good movement and ball handling. He is fun to watch, so talented for a big man. Our guards are just super quick and maybe the best combination of skills in the league. It was great to see Reggie pick up 15 points.
The last group of subs on the floor needs a lot of work but they got in a much more time this game. One thing stood out as a bit of wear and tear from three games in five days and that was ball protection. Other than turnovers, we were pretty amazing after all the travel and games. It sure is enjoyable to watch the unselfish play. It was a fun game to watch. They were not up to the talent of the Cats, but I am always impressed by our intensity, even with the turnovers.

I was at the game. Our offensive ball movement was the best I’ve seen this year. The Cats were up by 40 at the 10 minute mark of the 2nd half. The two walk ons and the freshmen got a good stretch of minutes to close things out. Dominating.

Yesterday was a great game on our part. Incredible defense with some really quality offense apart from some turnovers.
