    I think Shead is the best PG that UH has ever had.

    If the Coogs can make shots against a very good (whoever) defense...UH can win the whole damn thing.

    I think Rob Williams was the best they have ever had - but that was 40 years ago that he averaged 25/6/3 as a 19 year old and high on cocaine and beer.

    The Saga of Rob Williams would make a great 30-for-30

    He played 2 years at UH?

    He played three I think - but the third year he was already missing games, etc.

    He was on the same team that had made the Final Four with Dream and Clyde, etc.

    He was addicted to drugs before he stepped on the UH campus supposedly.

    There was a guy that played at TSU at the same time that Williams played at UH, and years ago he used to talk about Williams using heroin every day, and then before games or practice he would use cocaine to try and get up for playing ball.

    The Mickey Mantle Cocktail: painkillers and alcohol to get down at night, amphetamines to get up for the game, every game

    Future note for March Madness:

    If Houston winds up as the top overall seed in the South Region, it will wind up playing Sweet 16 and Elite Eight games at American Airlines Center in Dallas.

    Imagine sitting in Hofheinz Pavillion 20 years ago watching the Coogs lose to Centenary in front of 500 fans and a magic genie appearing and telling you this would happen:

    If they keep winning, I won't complain, but I really don't like Coogs wearing this TTU like uniforms

    Houston has to get out of that trapping in the post. Mix it up.

    Use the backboard, you dumbass

    5 point swing by Shead

    eta:

    UH has no offensive cohesion, or system, whatsoever. They can't score unless the D creates it.

    Their defense can only carry them so much against really good teams.

    This has been the same ol' same ol' UH offense for about 5 years now?
