Don't know much about Houston Baptist in basketball other than they are 21 point dogs tonight. They have a good baseball program and I would think they recruit heavily from the Houston and the state of Texas.

Looking forward to see how we play when it counts

Gradient free? That's new. I know we're getting new unis after this season, so this might be a one off or something or only home unis.

I did see a blurb about UA getting rid of the gradients.

Never was a fan. Almost has bad as the duct tape stripe they used to have.

I get to watch my first game tonight. I spend so much time at work, school (including unpaid internship) that I rarely get to watch full games, and resign myself to viewing highlights. This is going to be enjoyable to watch, even if it is a nobody.

I'd rather listen to Muehlebach than watch this China BS.

Edit: At least they're playing something relevant now. :D This never gets old.

Jeter should never get out rebounded by a smaller player. That isn't aggressive enough. He needs a chip on his shoulder. Zeus didn't get that chip until his last year.

Luther is rebounding pretty well. At least 3 boards so far. And a really nice touch pass.

Barcello, best practice shooter on the team. Do they really need to say that every game?

Waaaaaay too many turnovers. Really need to clean this up.

And can Barcello stop shooting please?

If they're not hitting 3s or run and gun, the offense will struggle to score

That's probably how the season will play out

Smith is decent defender and in year 3 under Miller's system, which is why he'll continue to get major mins in the rotation

The Cats are showing a lot of inexperience, and not knowing where each other is on the floor. This is good competition to start the season.
