We are giving them way too many open 3’s this half. We keep letting them hang around and I don’t feel good about it.
We aren’t “letting them hang around”. This is a good team. Probably better than a 10 seed if we’re being honest
 
You sure about that? They are 33-3.
Which has nothing to do with their first two tournament games in which they haven’t played very well the first 30 mins of their first game and the first 20 of their 2nd.


As far as they’re recorded goes they played the 102 schedule in the country. Texas played that schedule they’d be 30-3 too
 
Did anyone else hear the analyst chime in with:

"2 point shots are good because you can either increase your lead or decrease the deficit"

A+ broadcast team.
 
Please do not hire Rodney Terry. There is no reason we should lose to this Penn State team.

But yet they are headed to the sweet 16 and we about to lose to a 10 seed 🤷‍♂️
 
What’s so funny Sublett?
If you’ve been watching the tournament the last few days you have figured out by now that any one can beat anyone. There is no such thing as “we shouldn’t lose to this team”. Penn state and Texas were arguably the two hottest teams coming in to the tournament. The fact that this was a nail biter should surprise no one.

What does Purdue have to do with it. You said that UH is lucky. 33-3 is not easy in any league. Luck has nothing to do with it.
They played the 102nd ranked schedule in the country. They are a good team, but let’s be honest you put Texas and Kansas in that schedule and they are 30-3 as well.

That’s beside the point though. They have not played that well in their first two games. They’ve been lucky to get out with a win.
 
we shot 7% from three and won a tournament game
And we held the best 3 point shooting team in the country and the best 3 point shooting team in the big 10 to probably their worst shooting games of the season… hell of an effort.
 
i thought the portal would cripple the mid-majors-- takee all their best players. it seems to have done the opposite-- mid-majors can offer power5 guys that may not be getting the playing time they want. so hang onto your kids, and pluck 1 or 2 that you normally wouldn't have a chance at, and you have a shot. plus the big boy schools may lose some kids they developed, and lose depth along the way.

It has crippled the mid majors, but it’s crippled them after the tournament. A lot of these guys get noticed in the tournament and then transfer.

I coached (not basketball) at a D2 school and have taught at 2 other D2 schools and I am currently at an NAIA school. We had D1 kids spin down to us for playing time.
 
One rule change I wish CBB would make is go from 5 fouls for DQ to 6. 6 kinda takes the officials out of the game
