THE FORT BLISS MIRACLE

[Fozzz 152]

The freshmen look pretty good. 

[Blotto 23575]

Instant CLASSIC!

[Fastbreak 3992]

Always good to beat the fucking Hogs

[FORTY NINE TO ZERO 2652]

I’m in shock we finally pulled a win out  I feel like we normally lose these games  

 

Happy. But in shock 

[UTEX_ME 4766]

One lucky shot to get it to OT and the horns prevail 

[LoneStarBiker 145]

Fuck you Piggy! Hook Em!

[Catdaddyhorn 3447]

Ugly as fuck, but fuck Arkansas!!! And kill this ball screen offense. Especially where Osetkowski never fucking dives to the basket. You're 6'10" for godsakes. Dive to the fucking basket every now and then.

Show me a loss?

[chase25 2048]

We won a game in which we shot 21-67 from the floor... Are you a pessimist or an optimist?

[crony 362]

Ugly win but fuck it

[Dbeasy 15092]

Hayes will replace Sims in the starting lineup by the tenth game

Shot 70% from the free throw line. 

[ClubWhatever 12158]

Will Baker over the current 4 will be such an upgrade.  

[Rimbo 26109]

True, and our guards were 9-10 from the line, thank god Arkansas was 13-24.

[Catdaddyhorn 3447]

I can't see how it's possible for Sims to ever leave Texas before he's a senior. Forget offensive skill. Dude doesn't even have offensive instincts for the game. 

 

[realgreggym 837]

Good job guys. You may not always play well but when you keep playing hard, good things can happen.

Agreed Hayes & Ramey need to replace Sims & Febres in the starting 5 ASAP!

[Blotto 23575]

And oh yeah.....Fuck piggy

Add in Hepa for Osethowski as well. I need my bigs to cut to the basket every now and then.

Bench was a lot shorter in the second half, but it was good to get so many guys involved in the first half. It will be interesting to see how our rotation evolves when Hamm is healthy and if/when Jones can handle more minutes.

That being said we played a lot better in the first half, especially when we started using the bench. Maybe Shaka should take that into consideration. 

[Catdaddyhorn 3447]

If Jones gets back to form this year Febres minutes need to diminish accordingly. He should get a few minutes every game to see if he has a hot hand, but if not he needs to see the bench. He doesn't stress the defense at all. 

[dcar00 14365]

good win.  mainly because it wasn't a loss.  unfortunately we look like the exact same team as last year.  maybe the frosh can take some serious playing time away.

this.

There was about a 6 minute period of play in the middle of the first half where I thought we looked like a good team. Outside of that the entire game was garbage. 

[jinx 2635]

I am glad we have the SEC schedule with this team.  Warm up on scrubs at home before hitting the conference schedule.  

That wasn't pretty but it was a W.  Count me in the group wanting to see 33 get minutes.  

[TreatyOak 16422]

My phone died at the game, so mercifully, you did not have to suffer through any more of my updates. That was easily one of the most fun sporting events I have ever attended. The incredibly small scale of it, coupled with the military angle, made it truly unique. I sat amongst the player's families and Shaka's wife, which was really fun. Everyone was so friendly and appreciative that we were there. Seeing the game so close-up was fascinating, as I could hear all of their comments from the bench. I will post pictures tomorrow. Cheers.

That's a Shaka special. Hamm isn't going to play this year, who are you fooling. He will transfer out much like Febres when he gets benched in the next week or so and gets no minutes in conference play. If Hayes does become the starter, he might end up leaving after a season.

It's the same formula under Shaka, little to no improvement in year 2, no PT, they leave.

Announcers are killing this Texas Team with justified criticism....

Offense is horrible....

I enjoyed listening to what Dave Pasch had to say. He was spot on.
