To be honest middle schoolers know how to hit free throws. Players practice free throws on their own. Coaches work on fundamentals, but by the time athletes get to variety and beyond there are bigger

You know so little about basketball, it's actually stunning at times.

I'm still debating whether to spend money for the gas, tolls, and ticket to the game. I do want to see UTA's new place though. I'll likely make a decision tomorrow.

I don't think it would even be a debate for me...

I'm going...

Mainly to scout Cross as a future Benford replacement, but also to see UTA's new place. 

The outcome is predetermined, although I think it will be close for a half. Sound familiar?

UTA plays at UT in Austin tonight...this one should be real interesting. Does UTA still have another Power League win on the road in them? UT is probably on par with both Ohio State and Memphis, so it should be a competitive game.

I think they will murder us, as they usually do...

Lost in overtime. A Hervey 3 pointer in the first half was scored a 2 but by the time the error was discovered, too late to change it. Best UTA club we've had  in a long time.

We've  also played a lot of games in the last two weeks. Will Mavs be tired thursday?

don't matter, lol yall will wipe us up and down that floor. Glad I have a MS game to coach, I'd be pissed if I drove out there. Watched us get our teeth kicked in.

I went to their place a couple years ago.  I think I like the restaurant/bar surrounding neighborhood idea thing, but the inside of the building itself felt...how do I describe it?  Like it functions, everything necessary for a pleasant D1 experience is in place, but it's like Paul Reubens designed it.  I think the aspect that put me over the edge was the five-foot long remote controlled blimp that farted out Rudy's taco coupons.  It was like the Universal Studios of basketball arenas, and I think that expands to the retail section outside.  Everything super clean, super master planned, devoid of character.

I do think the whole thing has potential.  It just needs to age a bit.  And for the love of all things, get rid of that god forsaken blimp.

Regardless of my opinions on their facility, they're going to beat us by 30.

And you guys are young. If you can keep Cross another year I'd be surprised if you aren't looking at back-to-back SBC crowns.

Am i the only one (a UTA fan at that) that thinks my mavs are vulnerable tonight? Maybe I saw too many should-win games at Texas Hall turn into 10 point losses over the years??  We cant make a 3 pointer. And i still say 4 games in 8 days might slow us down a little. I see a much closer game tonight than yall are thinking.

We haven't beaten a D1 opponent all season.  I believe this is the worst team of Benford's tenure.  Something came up for me to do tonight...and in the past I rarely ditched NT basketball for anything...but there is no way I am missing this event to listen to us get demolished.

We will probably keep it close at the half and then slowly allow you to pull away to a comfortable win.

      State of College Football

      Surrendering ourselves to a G5 playoff would be disastrous. It would give the P4 all the ammo they need to effectively remove the automatic bid for the highest ranked G5 champ. The correct solution, in today's environment, is to maintain the automatic G5 bid for the main playoffs and have a mixed G5/P4 NIT style tournament as Pernetti suggested. Don't take, add. Wouldn't be a bad idea to allocate future "NIT" and playoff spots per conference based on their previous performances. They do this in Europe for their European tournaments. Each league gets a coefficient rating based on the previous 5 years performance in European competitions. Not performing? You lose spots. Performing? You gain spots. So you know, the ACC going 1-9 so far, the Big12 going 2-7 back in 2022, the SEC going 6-8 and ACC going 2-4 both in 2021 would have some affect on that rating and future potential spots in the playoffs and NIT. No reason the ACC should get 2 spots next year considering this year's playoffs. The rating would just ensure transparency.

      Because the ever present lie of “we could be next” keeps G5 athletic directors, coaches, and fan bases docile. Keep the system just shy of outright exclusion of G5 programs and you can slowly strip away access while claiming that wasn’t the plan all along. It’s why the Power Ball lottery is so popular. Even though the chances of winning are exponentially small for everyone (the G5 programs), everyone will point to that one lady in a far off trailer park (Boise) who hit it big!

      Women at Wichita State (12/29/24)

      Time to see how good or bad this conference is. The women (8-4) travel north to face Wichita State (6-7) in the AAC opener. We beat the Lady Shockers in Denton last year, 72-68. At 8-4, the women are tied with ECU for third best nonconference record in the league. Only UTSA (9-2) and UAB (9-3) are better. However, at 17-7, UNT has the best combined men's and women's basketball record of any program in the AAC. Game is at 1pm on ESPN+.
