We’d be up by 15 if they were enforcing where people sit

They are for season ticket holders. Keep people out of our seats. That was the middle ground since they don’t was pay people to check tickets apparently 😕

I think he is in the doghouse. We only see him in garbage time, but we need all the help we can get right now. Maybe this is his chance to get out of trouble.

That’s what I am thinking, but a 7 man rotation with only one legit big is going to have issues in conference. He needs to figure it out and show Mac why he should play soon. We need him.

Seems like it's gonna continue to be a back and forth one.  Every time I think either team might be getting a few points separation the other one makes a run.

Abou is really frustrated today. We really need him to settle down because the last 10 minutes are going to be huge and we need a post presence. 

We must be watching a different game. Abou I feel has played well, just had some bad hoop luck!

I doubt he plays much in the last 10 minutes. Not his kind of matchup

Some questionable calls for each team.  Good game right now.  I think we should let Perry do his thing for awhile - he's hot today.  Let him carry us till he needs a blow.

Then who we going to play in the post? Bell who picking up fouls and keeps backing people down and turning it over in the post… Scott who is technically out of position at the 5 though it seems Mac and company and working him into a 4 which I am fine with. Assuming next year and and Morgan run the post. If Abou isn’t a matchup for number 2 who constantly travels and can’t dribble and is a push over then idk what to tell you…. Not a good matchup…he is just really angry with Mac pulling him earlier and taking it out…. 🧐

This officiating is horrible. Most of the bad calls are coming from the lady ref.

My favorite part of the night was Mac going to her and when she tried to explain her reasoning he gave her the good old thumbs up said oh ok… and then winked and walked away 🤣

It will be a heavy dose of Bell and Scott to close. Some Abou minutes but I doubt he will be in the closing lineup today

I’m 50/50. He will/should stay on 2. Can’t see the other guys number he was doing well against earlier. His issue was foul trouble then his attitude. He will get some minutes at the end but may not close out.

Well to that point Abou played around 7 minutes before being pulled with 3:36 left. You are correct assuming nobody fouls out we won’t probably seeing him, but I would say over half the minutes is more than some. I like Abou. He has greatly improved and slimmed up to be able to stretch on defense much more than he could last year. 
 

I can see with 2 mins left he is a liability if they press and or start fouling so I was sure within the 2 min time we run this. Middle pressing hard.

I will agree. Same amount of fans this year as the last two even after than run. Only CBI really kicked up attendance… AD needs to figure it out and get the student section back and enforce the tickets/where people sit. 

Students don’t start class until the following week

Yeah but they haven’t shown up in great numbers this far this year or last. Even the prior year it was so-so. Nothing like when my friends were in college and went to a game and had to sit all the way up in the upper bowl sections near the top (when they truly enforced the seating). Could get 2k students pretty easy. We need those numbers back.

I was referring to when he was going at it with Mac because he was pulled with 2 early fouls and then started jawing with one of the MTSU players later over a foul. He was clearly frustrated, but he did fine and had a few good boards in the last few minutes he was in.

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      There is a lot of collateral damage in this Portal and NIL era. Fan-withdrawal because of PTSD associated with transferring key players will cause less emotional investment, and eventually less $$ investment in the program they follow. NIL donation requests, ticket surcharges, and pleas from ADs has displaced asking for donations for brick and mortar projects. Player buy-in to a coaching staff and program has been replaced with NIL buy-out of the players.
