    I'm not sure we really are, but we may be ranked 5th.

    I have heard he isn't the shooter Armoni was at the same age but he is better off the dribble.

    He is a walking advertisement for UH. Uconn, a known basketball school did not improve his skills. Come to UH, get better, get noticed. I think he was "coached up" by Kellen, not Kevin. Speaks well for the long term of the program.

    Fabian White came back when he was 'out for the year' and it energized the team.
    Hope springs eternal.

    I know nothing about it, but I'd say it's plausible. It sounds like 8 weeks recovery 3-4 months of possible pain. His NBA aspirations might improve with an NCAA showing, but he is also taking on unnecessary risk. Not sure. We'll be in the tournament next year more than likely so it's wiser to let it fully heal.

    Nope. No chance. There’s no intention on coming back this year, nor should there be

    Not looking good for Snead at the moment. Sad because he was playing so great

    I can’t help but think of Chris Farley listening to this guy doing the game right now. The Chicago Bears need to hire him ASAP

    Go Coogs!

    After losing so many stars, I frankly didn't expect UH to go far in the Tournament. Now I am not so sure.

    We pretty much went coast to coast, dominant win, but the boys did have another scoring drought. It's been the one flaw in our system for years now... aside from a post-game shortage. Samp is addressing it, and coach calling plays help, but the answer is ultimately upgrading the offensive talent across the board.

    Gonzaga is the only team I see holding us off the top spot, assuming we go unbeaten.

    I'm thinking sweet sixteen is reasonable.

    My thought is that if they get a 1 seed, that will almost guarantee the top 8 because they will be playing american like teams early, teams they can just dominate physically. But they are going to get shaken when they run into teams just a little bigger and play some real D. So, not unlike previous years. But they've given themselves the best possible road to this point....and they will need it.

    What about J.Shead, the player that was injured yesterday? Any report on him?
