Tre might be available

[The Ace of Aces 5194]

Get a PG and big man next year and let’s make a legit. run. 

[Honeysucklerose 990]

Welp. Good effort boys. Bad matchup. Great season -- so much better than anyone thought possible after that abortion a year ago.

One round better is so much better???

The refs have called this game differently for each team which is bullshit.  They are calling Texas for every ticky tack call and they are letting Purdue play rougher on D than they are letting us play.  It has nothing to do with one team is bigger or one team is taking jumpers and not driving to the hole.  They have called it this way since the tip off.  Guessing they have money on Purdue.

Ridiculous take. They’re calling the game appropriately when Purdue has the ball. And then apparently getting updates on this thread and calling dinky shit on Purdue. We are getting lucky. 

[dcar00 14347]

big 10 fans with the left right, sit down high school shit.  typical.

[Blotto 23569]

Fuck man. Tough game for Timmy. He'll play better in the S16. Thats right m'fers

[Mo Horn 8853]

Tell us you don’t know anything about our basketball program without telling us 

[Rockethorn1978 6102]

Well it’s over now

[Surly Bevo 25141]

No charge...ok

[perfectchaos007 6677]

Ivey was supposed to be the guy to watch, but Williams has been the guy eating our lunch

[Marcusshelton 86]

Playing hack a big might be the way to go if we have enough fouls available.

[UTEE97 3522]

So, they are not gonna miss anything?

[dcar00 14347]

charge on Carr.  no call.

[Vic Mackey 47136]

This is over.

[TexArcher 38042]

Yeah, we're done.  God dammit.

[ztejas 43529]

This is over. Next year should be more fun.

Ramey is a legit perimeter defender. we don’t have a legit interior one

[Valmy77 13272]

We're not going away bitches!!

[Zeus 6126]

Spoiler

 

Boy they sure are calling it tight

Except when we take a charge or try to drive

[UTEE97 3522]

Ballgame?

[ztejas 43529]

I mean we're still gonna fight but it's going to take a miracle at this point.

Feel free to follow Marquette

[The Ace of Aces 5194]

Valiant effort and great coaching - build on it. Purdue isn’t long for this tourney after tonight. 

[HtownHorn 14763]

What Jones did there, should have been the game plan with Williams in the game. You have to attack the rim with him in the game. He's not blocking shots, plus maybe you get some cheap fouls on him. Too little, too late.

[mrhorn 1383]

Lol, wtf. No charge call.

The inside power game was always the way to beat us this year.

yep Ramey has done his job all year shutting down NBA draft picks.  good on him.

[Vic Mackey 47136]

We have zero answer for Williams.

[SarksJuggs 1106]

Tre Mitchell can EABOD

[kevwun 15857]

There's not many people in college who can guard someone like Williams.  He's strong as fuck, quick and has legit basketball skills.

Purdue watched tape.  We can defend guards.  We cannot defend size inside.  They chose to cram it down our throats and it’s worked.

Allen needs to spend the entire summer working on a perimeter game with the Texas coaching staff while convincing his brother to transfer.

Teddy has a bit of a suspect past. IDK about that.

Which is strange because he fakes left and turns right every time with his back to the basket, and every time we bite.

Yea when Williams is on we should have gone right at him.

[Fletch 5800]

Was it over when the Germans bomber Pearl Harbor!?!?!? 

[EuroHorn 3268]

Purdue drives to the basket and either makes an easy bucket or draws a foul 

[Rockethorn1978 6102]

Tre Mitchell will not be getting a Christmas present from me this year.

That’s cause Ramey can handle him. No one can handle Williams

[Cairn Horn88 8282]

….and if PU wins…then have to play the #15 seed….the big bad St. Peter!

We do, he's just recovering from a knee injury that sapped him of all his athleticism. If we get the pre-injury Disu, our team is going to be much better next year.

With Beard and the new Moody Center, the future will be very bright for Texas basketball.

agreed.  UNC would take them out easily.  I thought they were better than this to be honest.  they'll probably have 35 FT's against St Peters but no one else in the bracket.

So that wasn't a charge on Purdue's made 3?  That wasn't a reach in when AJ1 drove there?  We're getting lucky?

[ClubWhatever 12156]

Purdue has 3 plays.  1.  Clear out for post.  2.  23 drives straight to the bucket and passes it off.   3.  Williams at elbow backs his man down.  We have not been able to take away any one of them except sometimes #2.   The only success we’ve had is to deny 23 the ball.   We have no answer otherwise. .
