I asked a ref if he could give me a technical foul for thinking bad things about him. He said, of course not. I said, well, I think you stink. And he gave me a technical. You can't trust em.

this game scares me more than Marquette. have to find a way to come with the urgency/intensity we did vs Creighton at home.

win the battle on the boards. shoot well from 3. take care of the ball. defend their size in the post.

let's do this, boys. we are with you.


GO X!

Watching a few GT games I notice that in many of the games they came out hot but were beaten in the second half. X needs to make sure they do not have a big deficit in the first half. X is ranked 70 and GT 78 in defense while X is 43 and GT is 118 in their offense.

And once again Carter and Free 0/3 when neither should be shooting 3’. Carter is providing nothing on offense but keeps playing. I have little faith in winning two straight road games with our offense

I’ve seen this show too many times this year. This team isn’t built for double digit comebacks. Pray I’m wrong afraid I’m not.

Steele with a terrible lineup to get us in the hole and our bigs are soft. Steele has no clue, game over

Pickett, Blair and their big are better than any three we have besides maybe Scruggs. The Carter experiment should be over he doesn’t box out
