They brought in an assistant coach to teach SMU players the Princeton offense. Any chance of bringing in Rick Barry to teach the SMU players the underhand free throw shooting?

Just a bad way to close the game out. No shot end of regulation, shot clock violation. OT got hammered. These kids are playing super hard, and the frosh were great tonight, but damn I'm sick of playing everyone close and losing late

Just be glad SMU isn't playing Baylor. They beat down Okie Light 106-65.

Coulda, shoulda, woulda is the dying legacy of the Doherty tenure.

Nothing more to say.

But he's here until the big money people have a pow wow with the higher ups about really taking this thing forward.

I've been to this dance so many times, it's become muscle memory.

I'mt too numb to it all to get upset anymore.

Leslie can be big enough to play but needs to learn to play better D.

Tough Loss,

Can blame a few things, sloppy with the ball in the second half when we were up, bad night by Nyk...etc...

BUT biggest reason was poor FT shooting during the game and in over time.

SHould have won this one.

Oh well, lets regroup and get ready for Houston.
Probaly won't happen...BUT...maybe it will!!

Can't win if Rob doesn't show up. Leslee can't be our primary big on the blocks. He's going to be good, but he can't guard their biggest player always

We built a state-o-the-art practice facility to fix that.
