Hard fought game by both sides. UCF isn’t the 1995-97 Bulls, but they ain’t the Washington Generals either. Not for nothing, but it isn’t easy beating a team three times in a season.
We didn’t play our best, but UCF probably did. They had strong numbers across the board, though we did outrebound them by a lot, we also turned the ball over too many damn times, while missing quite a few bunny shots. Several by Hunter, but in his defense, he gets no-call fouled a lot.
Harris played like shit, Coit like shit and Griffen like shit, with a lot of untimely shit by others.
Hope we’re not gassed for tomorrow. We’re certainly capable of beating AZ, though I’m sure they’ll be wanting some payback after their loss on Saturday.
I think we could win in a coin flip tomorrow, but I’d also bet we could lose by 15. What a strange trip it’s been… [Reply]
As an aside, anyone here ever been to the Big 12 tourney? I haven’t been since I was a kid when dad took me and my brother for a couple days back in the Kemper Arena/Big 8 days. How is it nowadays? [Reply]

He's just projecting his own blindness and lack of nuance onto people who actually watch games and don't just stare at box scores.
The only view he has of Dickinson is with Hunter's nuts in his mouth, so he assumes everyone else is also incapable of discerning what he does on the court game to game.... yet everyone else can see he's clearly raised the level of his game over the past ~7 games (it can even be seen by staring at box scores :-) ), which makes all the previous criticism justified and by no means people will just double down like he constantly does.

Parts of it seem to be. Tech dismissed students from all classes today and tomorrow. Starting spring break early to make repairs.
I'm still not clear on exactly what is going on outside of there was an explosion at a power substation, along with a gas leak in the engineering key of the campus. [Reply]

Or he’s just one of the best players in NCAA and has been the entire time (which every stat supports, he’s been 3rd or 4th in KPOY since November) and the team is instead being held back by incredibly limited offensive players that opponents don’t guard.
Support the narrative that makes the most sense to you, though. [Reply]

And the NBA is always looking for guys who can get off their own shot (Hall), he may end up there in the end. [Reply]
