Not sure I see much a difference between this year and last year...stand around, pass the ball outside the perimeter then jack up a shot at the last moment.

Mustangs have not made a 3-pointer all year

(2013 that is)

0-5 against Wyoming and 0-13 against Tulsa.

too bad Brian can't be more of the rotation.

That is because Tulsa jammed the inside and denied the entry pass, because they know they don't have to defend the three point shot against us.

We need Bernardi in to give us that threat to draw the defense outside

SMU Basketball is still better off with Larry Brown instead of Coach Doh. However, looking forward to next years team that will actually have dependable bench play.

Frustrating loss. Great comeback but crucial mistakes at the end. Foul when you got em. Played great d until the last two processions.

Two things actually did remind me of Doherty tonight.

1. SMU sitting in a zone for most of the first half as Tulsa just rains threes all half on us.
2. Tulsa going scoreless for the first 7 minutes of the second half and scoring only 6 points in the first 14 minutes of the second half.

Ok don't like to call folks out. But if anyone thinks this looks anywhere close to the disaster of last year is not watching. Not sure where this is coming from.

Coach Brown spoke during the postgame interview about telling the guys they had fouls to give and to use them. We had 4 to give with a 4 point lead. How /why do you ignore that directive if you're on the floor? Fog of war argument again ? Hard headed ? Aggravating.

Exactly. If this looks the same to you, you need to learn some basketball. With doh, We'd have lost by 15 to these guys trying to run the Princeton on them. Folks, we lost to JACKSON ST last year!

Yes. I'm no genius and was wondering why they weren't fouling. Got to learn how to finish.

13 out of the last 15!!!!!!

We scored 14 points in the second half and still won.

That's absurd.
