    Congrats to coach for finally getting the victory there. So glad Wilson stayed one more season.

    Wanted to add that I think Houston Cougar Basketball deserves its own section here at Clutch Fans. Probably will never happen.

    To me I like the Rockets but Houston Cougar basketball is much more enjoyable. Even with the Rockets finally now winning again.

    Don't understand why on a website where every possible nuance of the Rockets, Astros, and Texans is discussed backwards and forwards but the best sports team in the city IMO is largely ignored. Maybe having its own separate forum would help. Instead of being blended in with possible future NBA prospect and other stuff I am not particularly interested in.

    I agree, but then the Longhorns will cry to Clutch

    Clutch fans is a Houston based website no? At the very least a College basketball forum.

    I remember once many years ago I attempted to start a new thread and was blasted by one of the other posters, maybe one of the administrators, I don'r recall which. They closed my thread and moved my post. I just think it is time for Cougar basketball and their fans to get more respect.

    Real talk:

    outside of 20 or so posters nobody cares about HS/College/Intl basketball outside of how it affects the Draft. Thus we have this subforum, do you really need another one?

    Clutch fans is Houston based sports forum right?

    That may be true that there are only 20 or so that post under the subforum Cougar Basketball. If Astros or Texans were crammed into a subforum I think you would see a similar lessening of posters.

    There are literally thousands of Cougar basketball fans scattered around in the 7 M Houston metro area. There are other forums, one in particular with a similar name to this one, that have almost as much intensity among their posters during a live Cougar game as you see during a Rocket game. It's a shame we can't make it happen here.

    I think they could do so it if they wanted to and it would not take anything away from Rocket basketball the primary benefactor of this forum. May even bring some more posters this way.

    There's a subforum called "Football: NFL, College and HS"

    and it works for Various "NFL HS and College" things.

    I don't understand why the NBA Draft Forum (rename it!) isn't, or can't be, the same thing

    Fran is right. Mylik Wilson's improvement over the last year has been remarkable. He was driving to the basket like Stanley from the office last season and now he's taking over games in Allen Fieldhouse. 18 points in 24 minutes last night. He's come a long way.

    Coming back: That's the most coogfan thing that a coogfan could say in the history of coogfan. Good work.

    Doesn't make a lot of sense to me really. Especially under the NBA Draft subforum, like why?

    Glad to see you posting over here on the Cougar Basketball thread. I have seen you quite a bit over on the Astro sub forum. I wish we had something like that for Cougar Basketball. Even a small step like creating a sub forum called College Basketball would be nice. Might not make any difference in the number of posters posting but it might.

    There are a lot of people missing that used to regularly post on this thread. I am surprised at the attrition with the success that CKS and the players continue to bring to our basketball program. This golden age of Cougar basketball just keeps getting better and better.

    Most notable MIA is @YOLO. Don't know what happened to him. Didn't always agree with him. At times he could be a type A arrogant a**hole but I miss some of the insight he brought here.

    Yeah, I would think that there would be a decent amount of Coogs posting here or people that just want to see them do well. I'll always rep my alma matter when I can.

    I do a lot of posting in the Astros and Texans forums, indeed. Some hangout too but I like keeping up with the Coogs too. I just forget this sub forum is here sometimes lol.
