Tonight ECU vs Cincinnati. I got poo pooed earlier in the year for thinking EC had a semi decent team.

Maybe they aren't so awful. A 1 pt loss to #16 NC St early in the season, and wins recently over Memphis, UCF, and BYU.

We'd kill for that 6-3 record.(weak schedule or not)

You can watch for the TU band…

TU ahead 26 - 14, 7:33 second quarter.

ITS GAMEDAY!!!

Welcome back to basketball Season. Almost every team on our schedule or teams that we might play at Myrtle Beach are playing today. Tulsa is the last team to play of the evening. We have an 11 a.m. game today where Mississippi Valley State will be schellacked by Baylor lol. These extra teams will stay on here until Myrtle beach when the teams we don’t play will be removed at the end.

A couple of Rules that I will be having for the GOI this year.

• There will always be a new Post with TU Men’s Basketball Games Only. I am not discounting the women as I have them on here but this thread follows more closely to the Men then the women.
• The only other time that a new post will be made is if there are more than 5 games that day that are not Tulsa. Other than that the post will cover multiple days.
• I will be adding the “Q” records with the teams once the NET comes out in hopefully December. They could push it to January but with conference play coming up at the end of December I am sure that it will go up before Christmas.
• This is just a voluntary thing that I do as I just get way too much into this but I might not get it up “in time” Its ok. Lol. Gmoney and TU1978 will be ok. Lol.
• I will be bringing back the “And 1” again this year. I wont have it today because I have had a lot going on personally.
• I reserve the right to add more as I go along because I am old and Salty. Lol

Todays Games!!!

Tulsa Women’s Team breaks out the Reynolds center with a game against Alcorn State. They were voted 4th in the preseason poll. Maddie Bittle and Maya Mayberry along with breakout star Sophomore Temira Poindexter look to add on to the success they had last year and hopefully making the NCAA tounrnament after their second round 75 overtime game against Wyoming last year. That game had to have been like 9 hours long. Lol. I am embellishing but it was a serious contest that night. They host Alcorn State at 6:30 p.m. If your in town and you need something to do head down to the Reynolds Center and show your support. The tickets are 5 bucks and I am sure they will provide some entertainment.

Tulsa Men’s team travel to Corvallis to take on the Oregon State Beavers. This is a return game from last year in which the Golden Hurricane edged out OSU 64-58 in Tulsa. GMoney has put out a lot of stats and figures about the Oregon State team. This will also be the first official match of the Konkol Era. Team is led by Sam Griffin and Anthony Pritchard. Returners Tim Dalger, SGC and Special K hopefully take a step forward and up their game. We have added Jr. guard Brandon Betson from Chicago state as well as Freshman Jesaiah McWright and Charles Chukwu. I am excited to see this game on replay as I will be sleeping while they are playing. Lol

There are a ton of games that are being played and a lot you can get your basketball fix on.

Quick AP recap...

Tulsa rushed for just 31 yards, and two QBs were a combined 17-of-37 for 176 yards in a bad loss at Memphis.

Perhaps it is fortunate for Tulsa that it is playing a team that is snakebitten even more so than TU. Memphis (4-5, 2-4 AAC) has been a hard luck team this season, losing many close, highly contested games to quality teams. Tulsa (3-6, 1-4 AAC) hopes to rebound Thursday night when it plays 400 miles away from home in Memphis.

You want to talk about movements intent on subverting the ideals of first amendment....

If you can't see that this type of rhetoric pushes the boundaries of the establishment clause (and it's precedented interpretation by the SC), then you have something wrong with you. Not that the SC finds any merit in precedent these days...

Imagine how you would feel about this if you were Muslim, Hindi, Jewish, Non-Christian Native American, Atheist etc... Using every "authority as governor" to not only dedicate State owned land to a deity you may not believe in.... but also the land that YOU OWN to a god you don't believe in.

Here we go. The battle of a Memphis pass attack vs a Tulsa pass defense. Who starts at QB? Do our running backs continue to improve?

Win out and go bowling!

Philosophical question: If a football game is played but no one is talking about it, does it count against the coach’s W-L record?

Tulane still having their Magic Season, but they don’t appear to have the horsepower to finish their schedule without another loss.

Did anybody else know Brin wasn’t going to play last week? I didn’t.

Went through Memphis on way to the Ole Miss game, went to a BBQ joint that Guy Fieri devoted 4 pages in his book about the best food in America, and all I can say is….yuck. Overrated. Literally had spaghetti as a side dish, per recommendation of the owner. Never again.

Eric Konkol signed three highly-rated, highly-recruited prospects in the 2023 class on the first day of the early basketball signing period. All three players are rated 3-stars by Rivals.com.

The Tulsa women's basketball team inked two players to national letters-of-intent, including Mady Cartwright and Elise Hill, as announced today by Head Coach Angie Nelp.

Cartwright, a 5-10 guard at Greenwood [Arkansas] High School, has helped her team post a 78-14 record in three years and claim two Arkansas Class 5A state titles. She has tallied over 1,000 career points, including a 17.5 points per game average as a junior, is a three-time all-conference and two-time all-state selection, and was named the 5A all-state tournament MVP as a junior. Cartwright is also a two-year letterwinner in softball.

"We are thrilled to for Mady to join our Tulsa basketball program," Nelp said. "Mady will add to the potency of our backcourt with her toughness, skill and basketball IQ. She embodies what Tulsa basketball stands for in her love for others and dedication to grow. She will elevate our culture and we can't wait to welcome her to the Tulsa family."

"Mady is a leader on and off the court for our team," GHS Head Coach Clay Reeves said. "She leads by example and will play any role needed to help our team be successful. She has great basketball knowledge and vision of what our opponent is doing and what we need to do. Mady is a great all-around player. She is a tall, long and athletic guard that loves to play the game and compete, and she finds a way to get the job done to help our team be successful."

"Mady is run through the wall player that every coach wants," AAU Coach Brian Morgan said. "She is a Swiss Army knife, someone that can and is willing to do whatever to help her team. She can play multiple positions, score at all three levels and defend multiple positions. Mady is one of the toughest kids I've ever coached, and she has a great personality and is a wonderful teammate!"

A 5-7 point guard from Tulsa's Holland Hall High School, Hill has helped HHHS post a 64-14 mark in three seasons. She has recorded 917 career points, including a 15.3 ppg average as a junior.

"We are so excited and fortunate that Elise is staying home to represent the city of Tulsa as well as its University," Nelp said. "She is a dynamic scorer at all levels who couples that with a high level of competitiveness. Elise will enhance our culture with her work ethic and desire to serve others."

"Elise has a strong passion for the game and is a well-rounded basketball player that can score at all three levels," HHHS Head Coach Crystal Lawson said. "With her natural leadership qualities and confidence, I expect her to make a positive impact on the TU program."

"Elise is an athletic, quick guard who can play on or off the ball," AAU Coach Brian Morgan said. "She can shoot the three and has a nice midrange, is a good defender and a tremendous young lady to be around with a great work ethic and a superb family."

Perhaps it is fortunate for Tulsa that it is playing a team that is snakebitten even more so than TU. Memphis (4-5, 2-4 AAC) has been a hard luck team this season, losing many close, highly contested games to quality teams. Tulsa (3-6, 1-4 AAC) hopes to rebound Thursday night when it plays 400 miles away from home in Memphis.

Tulsa has got a really good commercial with Brad and coach Konkol for the game Saturday

as a 1 point underdog we shouldn’t lose big to smoo just wanted to be the first to post a Monty firing post.

The Coach K era is finally here. If he coaches as well as he has recruited, get ready to have some fun.

TU alum and major TU sports fan Kevin Gray is on the ballot next week. He deserves your support. Kevin is a very bright, talented, and fair minded trial attorney. He is the head homicide prosecutor in Tulsa County and has protected our families with dignity for a long time. I also happen to be chair of the campaign. Please do support him. This is a grassroots type deal and we have worked VERY hard to get him this far.
