Rice Thread

[I.I.]

Sparse turnout for the first AAC game. Barnes still out.

 

[I.I.]

Carrington struggling on offense and defense. Odom and Archie are good.

 

[drboobay]

Awful start. No Tulsa defense and unable to penetrate.

 

[TU 1978]

 

[loca2874]

Caught back up

 

[I.I.]

Nash still dribbling too long.

 

[I.I.]

Missing wide open shots. Smikle ahead of Reed now. Need more interior scoring.

 

[loca2874]

We had a 14-0 run to take the lead and rice got a couple of buckets to have a 1 point lead after 9 min of play. Looking good after a poor start

 

[I.I.]

Smikle , Odom and Archie are keeping us close. Amadi good rebounding too. Carrington worst game he has shown. Willis needs to score.

Willis got the three point play

 

[I.I.]

Archie hammered on that drive. No call.

 

[loca2874]

Stat of the game is that we are at 86 percent from the line on 6-7 shooting

 

[I.I.]

Love Odom, Archie and Smikle. Three great games.

 

[TU 1978]

Smikle is growing every game.

 

[I.I.]

McWright much more confidence in past two games.

 

[TulsaAM]

Free throws are why Tulsa is ahead in this game. Going to be a fun second half if this keeps up.

 

[TulsaAM]

At least Reed got his obligatory 2 first half fouls just before half...

 

[I.I.]

Amadi and Smikle good inside.

 

[TU 1978]

Amadi and Smikle good inside.

Nice comments attributed to the Rice coach on the growth of Smikle and how the TU coaching staff had helped him in his development.

 

[loca2874]

Only 5 turnovers in the first half

 

[I.I.]

Konkol subbed too deep for a while. Can’t win without Odom and Smikle.

 

[TU1NNJ]

Need to grab those rebounds on their misses!

 

[TU1NNJ]

We are really cold now

 

[libertychamp]

Konkol subbed too deep for a while. Can’t win without Odom and Smikle.

It’s pretty obvious the team with the best coaching will win this game, Konkol Will need to make great decisions to pull this one out which he has not done yet thus season.

 

[I.I.]

Two little shots that fell off really tough. Can’t put Smikle on bench. He and Amadi are the only bigs that can rebound.

 

[I.I.]

Got to play your best players.

 

[drboobay]

We are playing ok but not much to be excited about. Win or lose today's performance suggests we win only a handful of conference games.

I cannot help but to be honest about what I see.

 

[TulsaAM]

Shots need to fall from outside for TU if they are going to pull this one out...

 

[libertychamp]

Shots need to fall from outside for TU if they are going to pull this one out...

And bad coaching rears it ugly head Again Konkol is a great guy but thinks and coaches like John Phillips it’s just reality

 

[loca2874]

7-0 run with a big 3 from Willis

 

[I.I.]

Feel sorry for Willis. Missed a bunch of wide open threes

 

[loca2874]

Well they gave it a good shot. This is what happens when you live and die by the three

 

[TulsaAM]

Good try... against Rice. Team isn't very good right now, hope to see improvement throughtout the year.

Not holding my breath

 

[loca2874]

Tough loss. Only one game. We have 17 more games to work on things before the conference tournament the only goal we have at the moment.

 

[Gmoney4WW]

One of only 6 games they have a shot at winning unless they improve, and they lost it.

Psh.

 

[libertychamp]

Psh.

This team and coach are very reminiscent of our fired football coach and team. We may have the same results in bball and football not good news for our future in d1 athletics.

 

[libertychamp]

Psh.

Is our 310 and rising net ranking the worst Tulsa ranking since the net was invented.

Please don’t be idiotic. Have you seen our new coaching staff in football and the momentum they’re having now recruiting and with NIL? Just go away.
