Cincinnati Game Thread

20-17 bad guys just inside 10 min left in half. We are playing okay but keep leaving their best outside shooter wide open in the corner. (I think it's just safe to say that about every single game)
We were shooting from good positions early but now we're becoming hesitant to shoot when we're open and dribbling into traffic.
I don't disagree with a lack of conditioning, but it may be illness today. They said on pregame that Igbanu was battling a flu bug. He may not be the only one.
Washington is a stud. Pisses me off more why we did not go after him with 4 fouls in tulsa. Just stupid
These refs have called way too many traveling calls. One difference in coaches: Haith yells at Tulsa players after our travel calls, Mighty Mouse (Cincy coach) yells at refs after their travel calls.
Conditioning? No. You want players going 100% 3-4 minutes. For a big like Edogi there's nothing wrong with him asking to be pulled after that long, going that hard.
You can tell a lot about what teams think of you by matchups. Cincy has their best defender, #25, on Taplin. They know our offense is predicated off how he plays.

It is disappointing.
I can't remember the last time a Tulsa team lost this many games in a row and this many by double digits of 15 points or more.
This will need to be addressed in the off season.

Cincy plays so physical and they get away with it at home. It's ridiculous how many forearm shoves, holds, etc. they get away with. In 1st half, the refs didn't call fouls. In the 2nd half, they have called all the fouls on us, and none on them. We have 10 fouls to their 2. Not saying we didn't lose this game ourselves, but good lord.
Haith needs to sit Birt and play the youngsters for next year...
This season is long over...
Play the youngsters and evaluate them for next year...

Pretty obvious we need more talent/athletic ability to compete with the top of this league....especially at the guard position. Say what you want about Hurtt and Juice but they could both compete athletically with any backcourt in this conference.
