Hoping the faithful rattle little Alden at home, away, at both tournaments, and in his dreams forevermore.

Not enough to inspire him but enough that he figures out he should of run further away than across the state.

It’s comical watching bama. Specifically how almost every team falls for the same trap. Texas has had far too many quick possessions. You gotta make bama defend for at least 20 seconds every possession. But team after team tries to run with them and no one runs like they do.

Their best defense is their offense.

Yep. Score and make them play defense. Take the good shot if it’s open but don’t just jack something up early in the shot clock. They worries me sometimes about Pettiford.

Also I think Denver, Miles, and Pettiford have to go into the lane looking for contact. Seems they try to glide in the air evading contact but this is one where collecting fouls will be huge. Make them help and then dump to Broome, Chaney, Dylan after they over commit to stop the drive.

Bruce will have a good game plan but I think we are gonna have to play outside in this game. Instead of inside out. And that doesn’t mean jacking up 40 3’s

so true. We have some guys that can run with them, but if we dont start defending the arch better, it will be a long night.

A lot may come down to refs calling fouls on bullshite Sears flops. We have to stay out of foul trouble.


Don't forget the impact it will have if they continue to allow Broome to be pushed, grabbed, hacked, and hip checked every time he gets the ball within 10 feet of the rim, and call maybe 1 out of every 10 fouls.

CBM is a key, IMO. He has done very little, on either end, the last few games. We are going to need all hands for this one.

The problem is our guards aren't able to penetrate effectively or consistently so hard to force them into help situations
