    Bad defensive rebounding is death.

    Cenac 6’11- 240
    Sakcho- 6’10 240
    Tugler- 6’8 with 7’6 wingspan

    7’1 phenom next year. Top center in the nation (yes, irrelevant tonight)

    This game was lost with very poor shooting. Missed tons of open shots.

    Then why is UH missing open jumpers?

    Picked a bad game to do it.

    I really appreciate this team but ultimately it was a an odd team that lived on really tough mid range shots and like no inside presence

    it was fun

    Because they’re shooting poorly

    of course it’s a bad game to do it. It’s a single game elimination tournament. Just like Texas picked a bad time to not box out Kaufmann-Renn

    LOL no, Illini have shot all of 9 FT

    Can't explain UH shooting zero, other than all they want to do is jack up jumpshots

    Unfortunately Uzan just wasn’t the same player this year. He turned it on a little bit lately but overall a disappointment.

    Cenac missed about 8 wide open mid range jumpers

    That little hope was snuffed out quick.

    Illinois guys look like they’re in shooting practice

    kelvin might actually be better off with dogs instead of talent

    The defensive rebounding issues are partly by design, due to the high hedge and traps. When there's two on the ball, good teams can exploit that. Illinois has the size, passing, rebounding and shooting to take advantage of all of our weaknesses in ways A&M couldn't do. We had a little bit of nice fight, but it's too little too late with the adjustments.

    Kelvin is the basketball version of Marty Schottenheimer.
    That's fine.

    UH's kryptonite was a team with a large front line and a couple of guys who could shoot.

    UConn, Florida, Michigan, AZ, whoever....

    oh...and Illinois

    We'll need a miracle if happy Pitbull is to make another appearance this season.

    No. The Coogs just shot poorly.
