I think Miller should have subbed Richardson for Smith by now.

Has Trier ever passed out to an open 3 shooter when he has a 1 on 3?

I'm sure miller tells them to make the shot, they just don't listen.

Nope he's terrible.

That offensive charge at 2:40'left in the 2nd was turrible.

Barcello & Randolph even play in the 2nd half? Last thing I remember from Randolph was a bucket, then rebound or steal & a 3. Then never saw him again. Any ideas? His D is no worse than Smith who played a little

A LONG way to go to see that as a possibility right now. UNLV picked to finish 6th in conference they said. Still nice to see them pull it together in the 2nd 1/2

Just got back from the game. Ristic was terrible and seemed to not care. Atmosphere was very good at the T&M. Fortunate to get the win.

Just got home too. Good showing of U of A fans as always. Great college basketball atmosphere. Ristic was invisible in the first half. Offensively Randolph played good. Defensively not so much. He got yanked in the second half with Miller screaming at him for missing a defensive assignment and never saw the floor again. Akot was in and then out. Seemed lost the minute he played. The Cats could have played a lot better but I'll take this win.

I thought we had a good 2nd half but that was shocking to hear. At half, we were a dumpster fire and then going to a ff. I think Wally likes to talk hyperbole

Didn’t he say at halftime that the only way we could get back in the game was if Rawle played in the second half?
