re: 2021-22 Basketball Mega Thread

recap from last year

FIRST HALF: Arkansas 38 – UNT 27

Arkansas started quickly but North Texas battled back to tie the game at 17-17 with 9:44 left and once again at 19-19 with 8:02.
Arkansas missed 11 of its 12 shots over a stretch. Moses Moody ended the dry spell with an old fashion 3-point play.
That spurred a 10-0 run by the Razorbacks with JD Notae scoring seven straight points for a 29-19 lead with 4:51 left.
Notae led Arkansas with 11 first-half points. Moses Moody and Justin Smith each added eight.
Arkansas sot 41.1% from the field but was just 3-of-13 from 3-point range.
North Texas was just 1-of-6 from 3-point range.
SECOND HALF: Arkansas 31 – UNT 27

Arkansas held North Texas scoreless the first 4:55 seconds of the second half. (In game one, Arkansas kept Mississippi Valley scoreless the first 2:57).
After going down 20, North Texas made 7-of-8 shots to temporarily grab the momentum, cutting the deficit to 10 (55-45).
However, Arkansas answered with a 7-0 run and led by at least 15 the rest of the way.
Smith scored 10 of his 18 in the second half.
Vanover had nine of his 16 boards in the second half.

Ummmmm, that's pretty silly. We may not even be able to shift down and avoid blowing teams out embarrassingly.

Hide the kids.

Trey Wade is out 4-6 weeks with knee injury. No surgery required.

Trey Wade and Kamani Johnson will not play against East Central. Wade is working his way back from an injury to a tendon in his right knee. Johnson is dealing with a wrist injury and looking likely for opening night. Trey got a workout in prior to the Red-White game and looked good, but was nowhere near full speed. Musselman said Wade will go about 30 minutes non-contact in Saturday’s practice and the hope is for him to be ready by opening night.

The projected starting 5 for the game is Davonte Davis, JD Notae, Au’Diese Toney, Stanley Umude and Jaylin Williams. Musselman was adamant, though, that this 5 can change given there is practice today and Saturday. He will probably cap his rotation at 9 players for the first stretch of the game.

Musselman said this first exhibition would not be happening if Max Pendery, a former GA of his with the Razorbacks, was not the head coach at East Central. He said Max did a tremendous job in his time at Arkansas and added it is really cool for him to have a former GA make an impact at another program and become a head coach so quickly.

3pm tipoff today boys.

This guy

if the university doesn't kick him out.

He also did the lr basketball game last year.

Piss on the UofA for kicking him out. They should have live streamed themselves on Hogs+ if they wanted to make money off the stream.

Anybody think North texas wins Sunday?

Solid bounce back for sure so far
