Sam can do whatever McNeal does and can play offense. Only thing he lacks is a scholarship (and size). Use him!

Jarron: Limit turnovers, make the simple non spectacular passes. Get other guys involved besides Tre S.

Tre: I would like to see 4 assists from Tre, once again since Jarron is at the PG, Tre no longer looks to pass, which we lose open buckets from other players with his new scoring focus. Can't and wont knock his effort.

Maw: Be aggressive on offense and sneak in 10pts or better for the game.

Vogt: He needs his deep touches, I can see his confidence dwindling slowly

Bench: Good D and 20+ points

Hopefully the guys will be rested and will give 100% effort. Rebound as a team, and keep their man in front of them on Defense.

Brannen: Don't get out coached

All I want from Vogt is to make a couple layups or dunks. To where they have to respect you a little. The biggest thing will be passing out of the double team. If he can pass out of the double, there are wide open guys. He’s been passed better.

Last three games from 3:
4-10
3-8
5-10


My guess is that he escaped the scouting report the first time but he won’t this time.

Which means Sasser will go 8-9 from 3...…

Sasser is good, he doesn’t seem like he can drive much, but you can’t help off him. Hinton can’t do can’t do much else beside rebound and an open 3 occasionally. Mills is more of a shooter also. They key is stopping Jarreau from driving. It seems to get the whole thing going

Hoping for a win but will be shocked if we do. Houston seems to be as good or better at just about every position, including coach, and is much more well rounded.

Agreed, why even play this game.

I’d really like if Houston came out and started trash talking jarron. Love mad jarron.

Lets start Diarra and see if we can get Jarreau out of the game early.

Let's hear your great take on where that's wrong. Could we win? Yes. But there's a reason we've had OT or 2pt wins in our last 5 games and it's not because we're some juggernaut of a team. Especially on the road.

Forgot if someone doesn't pick UC to win it makes them not a fan.

we have to force them into a lot of midrange shots and live with the results. they fired up 29 of them in game one, we could use that again.



if we can get them to settle for those shots and rebound we have a chance to keep it close.


hopefully the long week of rest will get Jarron back in all american form.
