Tommy won’t do it but he really should consider not starting ADO and TT at the start of second half. We are going to give up the lead. UH will go against them

When we play like this, we can beat anyone. Love the toughness and drives to the basket against TJ Houston defense. If they are going to over commit up high, make them pay with quick drives off the catch.

the irony of the whole west coast basketball thing is that uofa has been called soft for years. then after moving to the big12 fans from other teams constantly bitch about how arizona bangs too hard and doesn't get whistled enough

First time we played them we were up 30-25 at half. This battle has yet to begin. Love the fact that we are just playing hard and tough. No West Coast softness in this team. If we had this defensive effort every game that would be impressive. We gave them 9 points by not matching up early enough. Think two of them were Carter. Just keep playing hard and don't give up anymore open looks. LOVE the hedge that Henri is providing.

Basically expecting the 'Cats to be soft and finding the reality can be a little bit different.

I’ve always said if we can combine a West Coast offense with big 12 or big east toughness, we’d be unstoppable

Gonzaga is in the west also.



If ADO had hit that 3 to start the game, he would have probably gotten a few more minutes.

This game right here right now is tougher than a S16 game.

IMNSHO. our going 10-14, after starting 3-16, is a damn impressive turn-around!!

And, I think Caleb's driving has really disrupted their defensive patterns...

Let's not forget that in CTL's first year, Houston bitch slapped us. The toughness this team has is a toughness gained through playing in the Big 12.
