I’m feeling a win tonight with a rough game offensively but I think we’re going to see some tough, tough defense.

Confidence level 4/10

I think we’re about due to see someone else step up. My $ is on Goode, like someone else said.

Personally, I‘m concerned about foul trouble with this depleted roster…particularly getting cheap/frustration fouls that tend to accrue when a team struggles on def. & off. We simply cannot have that.

It could have just been me, but I feel that UTRGV made a LOT of lucky shots on what looked like pretty well defended plays. Running to the basket and flipping up layups that went in due to some soft rims. Plus a lot of ticky tack fouls.


Yes I know some of our defense was bad but not all of it was.
Hopefully today shows a bit better lock down.

I am going to be ecstatic if we get a win, but won’t expect it. I think it will be a close exciting game either way.

We definitely did not get a home whistle in that game. But our defense was pretty bad. They got whatever they wanted off the dribble.

In fairness, flu mutates so quickly that the shots are only like 60% effective on average and it varies year to year based on the dominant strain. Sometimes it's almost bulletproof and sometimes it only helps a little. So, they could all be vaccinated and it wouldn't matter much. They probably aren't, but they could be.

In addition to that, chances are the guys have "flu-like" symptoms. If they had actual influenza there's a high probability they'd be hospitalized.
