UAB (2/8/18)

[Green Lantern]

Great win on the road! 4 in a row! Let’s keep this thing rolling.

[BillySee58]

7-4 in conference. The last two seasons we were a combined 2-16 in conference play on the road. This year alone we are 4-2 in conference play on the road.

LET'S GOOOOOO!!

Great win, super play by Draper.  I hate the slow down with a comfortable lead.  NT again didn't do it well, but it worked. 

I guess I need to call CUSA about their great network that allows teams to play make noise signs with the game on the line.

I'm not saying I was worried toward the last couple of minutes, but...

Impressive win!  I wish I could have gone over to Bham.  Really happy about the prompt turnaround going on with the basketball program. Great work!

[Shark84]

Hope we can get Duffy back soon. Best defense I've seen from us in a loooooong time. Simmons played great on that end. Huge steal. GMG!

This is where I think we should be, bare minimum.

Unreal how terrible we were under the previous regime.

Not sure how many times we've played UAB before C-USA, but tonight was also the program's first ever win in Birmingham. Great job men!

Unreal how Benford is still coaching college basketball lol

This is the best conference win in a long time for the Green.   i don't think McCasland has much choice now about giving a scholarship to Draper if he wants one.   Simmons can be something special if he continues to improve.

Not unreal at all, Benford is a very good recruiter; just not head coach material.  

[golfingomez]

ok... i think I'm back on board... 

Welcome back to UNT, basketball!

Great win! Almost lost it at the end with the missed free throws (again).  Free throws will be the end of us in the tourney if this is not somehow corrected. It seems once the poor free throws and related anxiety about making the shot gets into the players' minds, it starts to become a self-filling prophesy when they step up to the free throw line.
