Our boys did what they were supposed to do, beat a team you should beat and do it without stress. Many teams are struggling to do this and it is nice when our team does. Let's enjoy getting our 18th victory and 11th conference victory. (It sure does beat the alternative). Hopefully Juice and the rest of our guards can keep it going on Sunday. But it is very telling/worrying to not see several guys get into this game, we'll have to wait and see if it is a pattern. Go TU!
Enjoy the Win

DMarsh, it has been reported that members of the team have taken turns experiencing flu-like symptoms the last couple of weeks. Hopefully it has run its course through the key players and we move on from there. Interestingly, I felt Haith's game plan coming in to this game was a very nice adjustment from the first time we played. Obviously he and the coaching staff found the hole in the zone and what types of ball movement, player movement would beat it. We had 17 assists last night versus 14 turnovers, only 4 after half time, and the first after the half came with 7 minutes left (so a great half-time adjustment). The majority of those TOs were poorly conceived passes and trying to fit something in that wasn't there. It took about 6-7 minutes for our guys to find a flow and once they did, ECU had no answers. It wasn't a sexy, statement type of a win but it was a win after 2 straight lackluster performances, and it was a relatively easy win, although I'd like to see us close out a little better and have the 20 pt win.

The first 12-16 minutes of the game was pretty pathetic basketball all the way around. But I like wins. I mean, who doesn't???1
