MBB Final: Louisiana 56, Houston 71

Houston is quicker by a lot. They’re just eating the boards like a hot dog eating contest

Agree. They are just flat out faster than us. And probably more athletic than us also.

Probably? It’s not even close

Alright. Turning it off. Zero confidence in a Marlin coached team on the road against a ranked opponent. Zero.

A Harper sighting...

Honest question. I’m not trying to be a jerk and I hope one of the basketball guys see this and answer… Is our entire offense designed around getting an open 3 point look?

It has been like that since JJ Thomas left the program. And if someone wants to say Shawn Long, he jacked up 3’s as well. Time to move on

I thought it had changed in the LA Tech game with working it into Brown, but It appears this 3 point game plan is all we have for Houston at least.

Basic idea is to make outside shots to open up the inside game. Our inside size advantage is being beaten by speed.

Being ranked 14th is no fluke, these guys are good. Not an excuse, Houston is just deeper, quicker and more athletic. Part of being a good team. Health dinged them a little right now, but we're the right opponent for them tonight.
