Honestly I think we’d be fine with matchups in the NCAA Tournament assuming we can make it in. Our grinding, rock fight defensive style will give us a chance against anyone we match up with. We’ve already played competitively on the road with several teams that are NCAA Tournament teams this year. We’d fair just fine on a neutral floor.
When a game is officiated the way it was today - everything called super tight - it unfortunately negates our team’s greatest strengths. Having Lorient out of the game early really sucked, especially on the shit, ticky tack foul that put him on the bench. Shooting 16% from 3 while your opponent goes for 50% behind the arc isn’t a winning recipe. We bricked some wide open stuff, right after we’d forced stops - again and again. Frustrating. Lastly, we’ve got to get back to rebounding. These last two games we’ve gotten out physical’d and just destroyed on the glass.
All that said, we still had a chance to steal this on the road. We have the ability to win the AAC Tourney.
That price tag also includes a hotel and conference center. The UTA stadium, College Park, cost the equivalent of $107 million in 2024 but it also seats 7,000 instead of High Point's 5,000. Cost of construction in DFW is far cheaper than North Carolina. College Park is the stadium we need to emulate and potentially surpass in amenities.
