I can't over hype how we don't have much room for error. Houston is a good team. We are way better. Bad defense and no offense. There really aggressive defense through us way the **** off. However Cincinnati has to try 5 times as hard as apurdue. This gives one if the blue bloods behind us all the ammo to jump in front of us. Acting like it's not a big deal is just ******* crazy. I know in the grand scheme if things losing to a good Houston team at home is not the end of the world but I promise you it depends on what these. Blue bloods run the NCAA. We are dropping a seed line for sure and then we're in bug trouble if we don't beat whichita at home.

That is the other thing concerning about this one. Our half court was bad but mick refused to ever allow us to get up the court.


We basically played completely different than all other games this season and took ourselves out of what we do best.


It was definitely a head scratcher.

I think the moron that cronin is was trying to limit their possessions. When they got down 13 they ran every chance they could then came back. Dummy cronin doesn't realize how bad it screws up our rhythm. We have no half couurt o if we don't push it.

That is how they play in big games. Mick gets tight and plays not to lose.

Mick is addicted to the rock fight style. And the one thing you can always count on with an addict is the relapse.

Why does Mick constantly blame the refs? Come on, Mick. Just admit we got our butts whooped and move on.

We played terrible in offense, but if you watched the game you have to admit how much they got away with in defrnse. Your watching the game right. Mick understands like some of us what this Loss is going to cost us. I don't think some of you guys understand that. Your looking at it like were one of these other top ten teams . They will do anything they can to drop us and put Kansas and north Carolina in front of us. Like I said losing to Houston isnt the end if the world, but it's that little explanation and reason to drop us and put a blue blood in front of us.

It was nowhere near as bad as the first time we played houston. They got phantom calls left and right. I think they had a guy foul out 3 min into the 2nd half. Refs are never an excuse.
 
Got a lot of teams losing behind us this week too. Hopefully we don't fall too far. Should definitely stay in the top ten.
 
I just hope mick watches this film and realizes Evans is simply not a pg. and when we use him there we run nothing at all. No movment and he just tries to iso. He doesn’t have the moves for that. It only worked at the end cause Houston wasn’t pressuring as hard cause they didn’t want to foul (still fouled on the shot though.)

It really took Jake out of his game and everybody else too. No movement, all standing and watching him pound sand.


And as much as we all love Moore, to play him the last 8 minutes was not something he’s ready for yet.


Nothing about this game made sense. We came out hot, getting up and down the floor and mick just slammed on the brakes and our team never got it back. He’s got to be questioning himself on the flight home, he stripped us of all our energy, it was baffling.

And here we go. The house is on fire lol. We lost to an undefeated at home team. We didn't play our best game. We lost and it sucks. We won't lose to Wichita state. Relax

The result doesn’t bother me.



The way we got there is what’s converning going forward. If we’ve decided Broome is no longer part of the team, I like us a whole lot less than I did yesterday.

Bingo. Love to know what the reasoning tonight was.

We're also not gonna win many games where we start 3-3 from 3 and then go 1-12 the next 35 minutes or so. Houston did a really good job taking away our 3 point attempts imo. Also thought they took a strategy of just foul every single play and the refs can't call them all. They also kicked our ass on the offensive glass. Gave up way too many oboards.

Our half court offense still is stagnant and I don't trust it.

All that said, we still had every opportunity to win a road game against a pretty desperate top 25-35 of team, and just didn't get it done.

We'll be fine, but like others noted, I'm really scared if Cane isn't an integral part of this team going forward. Hopefully he was sick or something.

How many teams do we play that are the caliber of houston on the road? How many games does a team in the ACC play? No margin for error.

no margin for error, but this is the only good road team we had to beat. I don't think @ WSU hurts us at all if we win the other games. we were a 2 seed. Doesn't get much easier than that.

As much as I want it, we all know Cronin by now. He held Lance back, it took Larry Davis to figure out that Cobb was better than KJ, Cumberland should have been getting more PT and starting over KJ last year. This year is no different, Broome should be playing and starting over JJ but there is 0 chance of it happening. Mick is way to conservative.
 
Villanova lost and may loss again, OSU getting whooped, Clemson lost, Purdue lost to a horrible Wisconsin team, Texas tech had to go to Baylor, Duke and Clemson play. I don't think we drop much at all, maybe 8th
