How can we be up by 9 pts at the 15 minute mark in the second half and lose by 18 pts. We scored 9 pts the last 14 minutes of the game.
When we were down 9 pts with 6 minutes to go we paniced and started launching 3's. This was a tough game to listen too.
I can't wait to hear what PB has to say.
Jon & Chris made it sound like maybe the officiating was a little suspect but still, to get run off the court at the end stinks.
Off to listen to the PB.

No doubt Rdog, OUCH!
Jon Ramey said that UT-PA shot 60% the second half. Double OUCH! I love that Jon calls it like it is. He described our defense as "having a melt down" in the second half.
The boyz must be getting a lecture, PB still hasn't come out to talk with JR.

PB must still be lecturing them because he never talked with Jon Ramey.
We completely fell apart the second half both defensively and offensively.
Disappointing, very disappointing.
Their had to have been a 3-1 foul differential in favor of UT-PA.

In the words of the local weathermen describing the snow tonight and tomorrow....
THIS BLOWS
I thought the Akron game would be a wake up call, but it seems we rolled over and hit the snooze button one more time.
As far as UTPA's Castillo goes we could use the words of Jimmy Collins after UIC loss to UW-Parkside:
Ray Castillo scored a career-high 30 points hit 10-of-16 from the field, including 8-of-13 from 3-point range. Just like UIC last night, we let one player get hot from behind the arc to beat us, but after 3-4 treys you would think we would know where this guy was at all times on defense and at least put a hand in his face. The defense just disappeared in the 2nd half allowing UTPA to shoot over 60%.
And when our defense is not good, it always seems to rollover to our offense, which might have been the only thing in the second half worse than our defense. We are not going to win many games with 18 turnovers. Well, hopefully we have gotten the annual obligatory bad games out of our system, and we can go on a roll from here.

He is more worried about his candy-a$$ self and this OSU investigation than about the team. Yeah, yeah, he's in deep sh!t - go ahead don't believe me, flame me but you mark my words - his f**king hands are dirty in that whole matter and he knows it. He's scared sh!tless.
It ain't the kids, they have the talent - they have no coaching beyond some madman that cusses them out all the time.
We have a dirty coach
