ITS GAMEDAY!!!!!
We have a double header today at the Reynolds Center. The Men host Cincinnati and the Women host Temple. Both needing wins today. Tulsa goes on a 4-game road schedule after this and then finish with the last two at home before starting the conference tournament in Fort Worth in 26 Days. The women need to start stringing together conference wins to try to be relevant in the women’s field. They start their tournament in Fort Worth in 23 days.
There are a lot of conference games on high profile channels today. Memphis visits #6 Houston today at 2:30 on ABC. There are a couple of games on ESPNU.
And 1
Today is legends day at the Reynolds center. Due to the snow storm last week they will also be celebrating National Girls and Women in Sports Day at the Reynolds Center. There was an email that was sent out that you could get a ticket to both games and a t-shirt for $50. Not sure if that is a deal or not. So that is up to you.
From the TU Website
“Tulsa will recognize those former basketball players who will make their return to the Reynolds Center at halftime. Some of the Legends expected to be in attendance include members of the 1980-81 NIT Champions David Brown and Ed Lindblad; two-time Missouri Valley Conference Defensive Player of the Year from the late 1980s Michael Scott; MVC Player of the Year Gary Collier, Lou Dawkins, Cordell Love, J.R. Rollo and Pooh Williamson from the school's first NCAA Sweet 16 team in 1993-94; and 2000 NCAA Final Eight team members Eric Coley, Tony Heard, Brandon Kurtz and David Shelton among a number of other former TU basketball student-athletes.”
