Lets go!!! Time to take it to the Fighting Texters!!!

 

[TU_BLA]

Cough High feeling right at home...no one here, maybe 50 students. Pathetic

 

[cmullinsTU]

Significantly less fans than at a TU women's game vs UCONN. Sad!

 

[Weatherdemon]

Birt playing good D but 0-3

 

[cmullinsTU]

Is the bench wearing different warmups or is it just me?

 

[nevadanatural]

That last Birt shot bounced on both sides of the rim nd still didn't go in. We like ood the first couple of posssessions it somef the guys still look like they don't want to take a shot.

 

[TU_BLA]

He seriously can't hit anything. And the refs are calling different standards. Robinson gets beat off the dribble and rides Taplin/Etou with his arm in the middle of his back, no call, Gray gets the same call

 

[TU 1978]

Where the hell is everyone today?

 

[Air_Raid918]

Thank you. Birt is out after a nice 0-4 start

 

[Weatherdemon]

Get the ball to Etou, not Birt

 

[noble cane]

Wow.. lots of people came dressed as seat backs..

 

[nevadanatural]

We're getting good kick outs but need to spread the long shots out.

 

[cmullinsTU]

I think somebody has cursed Birt's shot. Seriously 2 or 3 today have looked good. Bounced around but fell out. I blame ttownpod. Nothing personal you've just called out his inconsistency the most.

 

[TU_BLA]

Worst trio of referees we've had this year

 

[Air_Raid918]

Korita and Birt have been straight trash lately. Getting open looks just can't make a shot. Heard all year from Haith we had a good shooting team. Certainly hasn't been the case

 

[nevadanatural]

I have to disagree with that charge call on Taplin.

 

[cmullinsTU]

I have to disagree with that charge call on Taplin.

I also disagree. I think it was a block but if they called a travel I would've been fine with. But charge? No way!

 

[cmullinsTU]

Henderson is maybe the most frustrating defensive player we've had in a while.

He forgets to look for his man or get in his space in transition and sets up wide open shots. Very annoying.

 

[I.I.]

Houston weak inside. We should never zone.

 

[TU_BLA]

This game is over. We can't hit anything and we settle for jacking up 3s no one can hit. And no one is moving their feet in defense.

 

[I.I.]

That official is so bad both officials overruled him.

 

[cmullinsTU]

We've fallen back to earth for this team after playing out of our minds well vs Cincy. Need some serious upgrades on the perimeter.

 

[Gold*]

The official who called the second on Taplin and was later overruled is really bad.

 

[Air_Raid918]

I think he is trash, but #33 has 3 fouls. How about some type of press, get this game more uptempo and tire them out

 

[I.I.]

Houston post man 3 fouls and on bench. We should take everything inside. No one left to guard us in there except sub.

 

[TU_BLA]

Meyers is physical only. Chicken and Nkali are much better on both ends. Ride Igbanu, Henderson, and Etou until their legs falls off. Somehow we are within two while playing terrible basketball

 

[I.I.]

Gray talking trash to Igbanu.

 

[I.I.]

Igbanu needs 30 minutes. Magnay 10.

 

[I.I.]

Wheeler ...........

 

[TU_BLA]

Why do we play zone against this team? They can hit from outside but Gray is the only threat to drive past us and their inside game is pretty meager. And for some reason we like these stretches of 4-5 turnovers in a row

 

[Tulsafanzz]

If Henderson was aware of the shot clock, Gray wouldn't have had an open 3.

 

[I.I.]

The three Jucos are struggling with passing.

 

[Tulsafanzz]

Birt's passing is trending towards his shooting.

 

[T Up]

I'd be playing both of them with Etou at the three. We only have 1 1/2 guards.

 

[nevadanatural]

8 first half turnovers.

 

[Air_Raid918]

It's time for Birt to ride the pine. How many times are we going to turn it over trying to make a simple, fundamental entry pass to the high/low post

 

[nevadanatural]

Make that 9.

 

[URedskin54]

Another successful taplin autobench

 

[Air_Raid918]

I may demand a refund on the way out. Birt has been awful. Korita looks like an idiot with that hair bun, and has offered no productivity besides maybe one assist

 

[Air_Raid918]

And look who gives up the rebound and layup to end half...Birt
