Cougar Basketball

I think 2

 

At this point we just need to go into it healthy. Regardless of whether we get the midwest one seed or the west one seed we are going to have to play a lot of tough teams. I doubt if things will fall in line for us the way they did the last time we made a run to the final four.

Two of our key pieces are a little banged up. Arceneaux is still dealing with lingering achillies issues. Sharp is still hobbling and playing through his ankle pain. Tough mofo for sure. We need both of these guys as close to 100% as possible or our road will be much more difficult.

This time next week we will know for sure which bracket we are in and we can cuss and discuss the easiest path. I am confident that in his own unique way CKS will have the team ready.

ETA: Just noticed all BIG 12 tournament games TU -TH will be on ESPN+. I guess they will be too busy showing SEC and Big 10 games on regular ESPN. I don't remember this being the case last year. But I have slept since then.

 

Heath is key, and true.

Gotta remember, the 4th #1 will be in a bracket with the #2 of whoever is not a #1: ie Bama, Florida, et al

 

Just noticed in scrolling through ESPN upcoming program on Directtv that UH game on Th will be on ESPN2. So some of the games will be on regular ESPN. All Tuesday games appear to be on ESPN+ but starting on Wed looks like that round and forward will be on regular ESPN.

 

Coogs finish the regular season ranked 2 in AP poll

 

Surprised we jumped Auburn to be ranked #2 in final regular season AP poll. Our team has fought like hell all year after beginning 4-3 losing a couple of close ones. Proud for our team.

 

Ehh maybe, hasn't Auburn lost two in a row and UH hopped them in the regular season rankings?

FWIW I think they will fight for getting a #1 seed but I don't think it is as important to them as other teams.

They have been good for awhile now.... they have finished the season with AP ranks of 6, 15, 2, 3 and now 2 ....... they have won 6 of the last 7 regular season conference champions.

At this point they are more concerned about trying with the NCAA Championship.

 

Quannas White is leaving for a HC position.

He has been a great assistant coach and been with CKS for 7-8 years. Listened to comments from Sampson earlier today and he had nothing but praise for him. He has been a tremendous recruiter. CKS also went on to say that Quannas would stay on with the team until after upcoming run in the NCAA tournament. He will be missed.

 

The Buffaloes are up on Mountaineers look like they're going to close it out. Lets get this started Coogs.

 

Is todays game important?

 

I think we should want to go into the big dance off of win. So let's just win 3 games.

 

byu is a scary team.

obviously still gotta take care of bidness but i would have rather faced iowa state in the semis

 

feels like a game we should have been up by 50

im not feeling the vibes here

 

Coach just sent for his paddle

 

What happened to Roberts?

 

stepped on a colorado players foot and rolled it

seemed bad but not like jamal shead vs duke bad. i dont think he plays tomorrow.

 

Rolled ankle. Walked under his own power with no help.

 

Stepped on CU players foot twisted ankle. Doubt if he returns this game .No idea of severity.
