Student section was packed. Where the hell are the men's basketball season ticket holders? Too busy bitching about our lousy football team in the football forum?

I would buy tickets but since I work nights I can only make the weekend games, so financially it doesn't make sense.

Eric Tramiel deserves more minutes. He is extremely polished and looks like a top notch D1 player..... he is consistently putting up big numbers despite smaller minutes.. check out his numbers for the season on only 18 minutes a game: 8.4 points shooting 70% from the field, 40% for 3's with 5 rebounds and 1.3 blocks. His biggest problem... free throws. Shooting horrible at the line. However, at Paris JC I seem to recall he was a 70-80% free throw shooter so hopefully his percentages will increase after he settles in. I can't help but wonder if Eric could play a guard position with his athleticism given our wildly inconsistent guard play? How about 6'7" guard?

Kedric Hogans is also getting visibly better each game and his continues to shoot the ball at a very high percentage. I love Hogan's defense most of all.

FYI: The doubleheader start time has been moved back....the first game now starts at 5....not 4:30.

Great win tonight.

Do we now own the Sunbelt's only two wins vs the Southland?

Rick

Interesting question. At least it was interesting enough to me that I checked.

Sun Belt vs Southland is now tied at five wins each.

I noticed that Western Kentucky, Middle Tennesse, South Alabama, and the two Arkansas schools have not yet played any Southland opponents. Conversely, Denver, Troy, FAU, La-Monroe, New Orleans and Louisiana have played eight of the ten games vs the Southland.

Remaining games:

Southeast La @ FAU

UTA @ UNT

UTA vs Denver @ Missoula Mt

Sam Houston @ Louisiana

La Monroe @ McNeese

The Southland is a decent league....they have several good teams.

I wish we could arrange a two conference series of games. (Not with the Southland). You know maybe a MAC--Sun Belt Challenge or something like that. I guess having 13 teams kind of screws things up. Maybe when we jettison Denver....we can set up a Challenge with another conference (CUSA, MAC....)

      SB at Charlotte (5/3-5/24)

      The bats have definitely been the biggest disappointment the past two years. The run support simply hasn't been there enough. Now, I'm still optimistic for the tournament. Last year we won three straight to make it to the title game. But that double bye would have been nice especially if we only have two reliable pitchers right now.

      Why the NCAA model is dying and will be replaced

      You can rebuild a college basketball rotation to contend at a high level in one year. That is just 8-9 players. And if you get lucky with 2-3 absolute monsters, you can make a run in any given season. Of course, then those 2-3 monsters will get poached by deeper pockets and you will have to start all over again. But still, it is possible. But we can’t rebuild a college football two-deep in one year. That’s almost 50 players that we need to compete at a high level. And as has been demonstrated, any time we get football players who have any kind of success in the NIL era, they are gone quicker than you can say “Chandler Rogers”. Another reason it is easier for us to compete in the NIL era in basketball is because that sport is dominated by guards. There are LOTS of talented guards available in college basketball and some of the very best can fall through the cracks and land with us for atleast a season. And while many people would say that college football is dominated by quarterbacks (and that position is VERY important)… what really separates the elite college football programs from everyone else are the defensive linemen. The supply of 18-24 year-old humans who weigh 300 pounds with the strength to take on multiple blockers while also having the speed to run down a quarterback is no where near the demand. And these defensive linemen usually take a while to develop. But anytime a defensive linemen shows a hint of promise, he gets funneled to the highest bidder and that won’t be us. Which means we will never be able to compete with the SEC or Big 10 in football.
