Yes,
I'm not really sure why he transferred to Tulsa, based on his play at La Tech, i thought he could have gone somewhere better
Because his HC left and went to Tulsa.

Just to update, it seems like he is OK.
On another note, I thought AScott bounced back well. Scored and did AScott things again.
This is not to take anything away from the guys at all, but I will say that Tulsa is not a good team. I think we beat them by what I would expect. They missed a lot of good shots because of our defense, but also because they are just not that good.
They took the last few teams they've played to the wire before losing late. They are a good basketball team in a really tough basketball conference.

We'll see, but I do think it is quite possible we get 3 teams in at this point.
I think we could easily be a 4 bid league if they would be willing to not add some Middle of the road/bottom half big 12/big10/acc teams but those are the money conferences.

A shot breakdown like that doesn't tell you if the shots were near the basket because of guards driving or because the front line players got the ball down low to begin with.
I didn't think the game was called egregiously on their behalf. Fans (ALL fans in all sports) blame the refs for 90% of the losses when it's probably less than 10.
I meant to post this earlier and got busy with my crazy kiddos. I try to never point to one aspect and say this is why we lost. I firmly believe if we boxed out and secure easy rebounds on missed FT's we win the game easily. We gave them 7 points I believe maybe 8 I can't remember off not finishing the box out on FT and it wasn't like it was the 7 footer we weren't blocking out, as he was shooting. So very disheartening.

Yeah, I mean he was red hot so I can't have much of an issue and I guess I don't. Still though, even if he hit it, you're leaving the Owls with a ton of time. I wanted to give them as little as possible to tie or retake the lead.
No doubt, I'll always feel good about our defense at the end of a game. But it would have definitely been less stressful up 3, know you have to defend a 3.

8 seconds? I thought there was about 20secs once we got the offensive board?
25.3 I went back to check but its neither here nor there. We led or had a tie for all but 3 minutes in change on the road without Rubin. Get back to Denton regroup and lets get back to it!

I can understand Buggs' thought process, but he should have pulled it out.
As soon as he let if fly, my brain if he makes this I'll be so happy, but if he misses it I'll wish he pulled it down and took a late shot clock shot to limit their options. If I am shooting the way Buggs has shot the last two games I probably let it fly 100 times out of 100 in that situation.

Was this a flash in the pan or will the athletic department keep up the momentum to get the students out for the next home games? Whatever the department did, it worked and they should not drop the ball on continued student support...that takes effort that I hope we see at future games. It probably would be a good thing to publicly thank the students for their support vs. SMU.
Winning, keep having winning seasons. People support winners. Look at UNT when we went to the HOD bowl. It is easy to support winning. It is hard for the average person to attend when winning isn't consistently happening. Sounds lame but its the reality of sports.

What brought them here was 2 good teams competing against each other with an added bonus of the opponent being local.
Nobody did anything extra to get people out other than both of them being good. As long as that is the focus, attendance will naturally improve.
disagree I was called twice about tickets once about 10 days out and once again about 3 days out. I also received 2/3 text message reminders also. I imagine they have a database once you purchase tickets you are in. Definitely the biggest push by the Athletic Department that I have felt as a fan. It was unfortunate my entire family was sick or we would have been plus 4 to whatever the number was.

Hearing rumblings of 4,000+ tickets sold, not including student walk ups, and season ticket holders. Could the Pit be rocking like the Tech game years back? Lets go!

Any update on status of Jones and Buggs?
Posted yesterday on twitter barring any set-backs in practice yesterday they had done what they need, to be able to play in the game today. I am really hoping the crud that has taken over my house goes away throughout the day. All 4 of mine are down with feeling bad. If we don't make the game we will be yelling at the tv. Here's to hoping!

I still don't get what everyone saw in Sissoko that made it so easy for so many to wave bye to Abou. dude played well in 2 games and y'all thought we had the center position solidified.
Ding ding ding!! He filled a void and played his tail off so it made the story better. We need more in the paint. If also wonder how many more wide open shots we’d get if our offense was similar to Charlotte screening screener etc. we have far too much dribble drive 1v1 or a meh screen.

We don’t look tired, this is what it looks like when you get your ass handed to you. Give Charlotte their credit. They were up for the game. They wanted it.
And, I stand by what I said earlier…Aaron Scott plays soft. If he was one of the guys to lead this team, he’s underachieving. It’s not all on him tho. Other guys need to step up when the moment arrives too. Just don’t wait for one person to score for you.
Terrible take.

They beat FAU, and before today, no one else of note. Look at their schedule. Patterson is that team and help never came or came too late. And he was draining buckets. We shot freaking 6% from 3. That is not CLT. Has virtually nothing to do with them. Our guys sucked.
Yup.. all 7 guys who have virtually played all conference games. Everyone calm down. The fact we’re 4-1 after 5 conference games with 2 starters out is a miracle.
Edwards has to be averaging 39 minutes a night… not sustainable.
Scott near the same. It’s just not a good model to follow for sustainability-

...go get some playmakers on the DL.
please!Not sure we have too many spots available until after the spring portal window. I could see another 8-10 spots opening just based on my perusal of the roster but that is 100% me guessing based on guys that left/were encouraged to leave and where those guys ended up is telling. Look at our transfers out besides the big ones, where did most of our guys go? They didn't even go lateral most went down a level. I don't have all of them in front of me but I think I am pretty close in that guesstimation.

Yeah but I don’t see a big uptick in what we are landing unless I am missing something Seth had higher ranked players when he was the head guy. We also have a lot of defections.
They were ranked higher because when Seth was HC other P5's came in and offered kids then backed out late as they got other guys and kids keep their ranking. Now with Portal guys aren't getting ranked as much or as high because they aren't gathering the 4-6 P5's once they don't get their guy. I feel like 90% of our HS Signees we would not be able to get prior to the portal. Time will tell, but this class is one of the more dynamic I believe that we have ever signed.

That is all.
He is worth his weight in gold… he gets us in the home, it’s their job to finish. A chance is all you can ask for.

Tulsa (2/7/24)
in Mean Green Basketball
Posted
They've shown the ability to get a lot of people to the game vs SMU but they're going to need to apply the same effort and energy each home game to get that many people there. I sat next to the crew who does ticketing our last home game and we started talking. I asked them why they yelled at me to WAKE UP!! They got a kick out of it I told them the calls automatically get sent to voicemail as the University calls often for money and donations. I said the Text IMO was the best way to engage. Told them I really liked getting one a week out, then a few days before the game, then Game day as life gets busy and sometimes I forget about a game. They took notes and said they really appreciated the Feedback. All were fairly young adults starting their careers I told them being able to put on your resume you raised attendance from x numbers of fans per game to x numbers of fans it would be big for their next step in career.
