Jalen Duren came to play last night. Pulled down 20 boards in 27 minutes. Going to need a great effort from our 3 headed monster of Clark, Agunanne & Young tonight. Hopefully they bring it like they did vs Memphis in Moody

[SmooBoy]

So Memphis is the home team? Hoping some tickets get purchased for the road team. Memphis fans will bring it today.

Pony Up.

We need the refs to call a tight game like they did in Moody last time. If they just let Memphis play their brawler basketball down low and don’t call fouls, it will be an uphill battle.

Which crew to we have tonight?

Game tends to get more physical come tournament time

I wish Dallas knew how much MBBall needs them to show up today. Whomever is there needs to bring their cheering A-game. Memphis has decades of experience on how to properly attend tourneys.

Getting the car loaded now to take the short drive to the arena.

I read somewhere that beer sales jumped when our fans showed up at Dickies. Get lubed and get loud.

Nice place this dickies. Nice bar area and lots of tiger fans.

Lots of red also but that is Houston I bet.

Black cherry selzer. 10 dollars.

The Mustangs have managed minutes for Tristan Clark all season because of the health of his knees; he played less than 11 minutes Friday. Tim Jankovich said that he is hoping Clark can play on back-to-back days in the postseason.

How much he can play remains to be seen, but Clark did warm up with his teammates.

wasn't our game supposed to be at 4:00?? Place looks empty.

[PonyTime]

Houston game ran late. Not sure when our game is starting now. Anyone know?
