We barely scored 16 points. Need to score 50 to have a chance in 2nd half.agentpaul001 wrote: ↑Sat Mar 07, 2026 7:33 pmWorst half of the year. The only positive is somehow being down 16 when it could’ve been worse. Hoping we can come out with more energy in the second half…

Re: Sun Belt Tournament 2026
Is that enough any more? It’s certainly better than the alternative. But do we really have to wait until 2042?

Re: Sun Belt Tournament 2026
We’ve been told above .500 is good enough for basketball and baseball.
“It could be worse” type of situation.
Need more funding if we want to make real moves.

Re: Sun Belt Tournament 2026
I'm not saying the format is entirely at fault for our performance, but it certainly doesn't favor the highest seeds as intended. We have too many teams in the tournament and it forces good teams to sit for too long. Waiting right or nine days to play is ridiculous.

Let Brim play. We know what we get with Clarke.

Re: Sun Belt Tournament 2026
Defense has to get stops. They’re getting anything they want.
Our guards can’t stop theirs.

Re: Sun Belt Tournament 2026
I was worried about the long layoff, particularly given the weak finish to the regular season.

Re: Sun Belt Tournament 2026
The 5 second call when we had a chance to make it single digits was killer. We better hope their legs get heavy quickly.

Re: Sun Belt Tournament 2026
We just can’t stop Weeks. I’d put Jennings on him box and 1. Everyone else too slow or too small.

Re: Sun Belt Tournament 2026
That would require a coaching adjustment. USM watched the second half of the Marshall game and developed a great gameplan.

Re: Sun Belt Tournament 2026
Another good season.
I’ll take 19 wins.
Just flopped down the stretch.
Need a little more money to retain the guys and find some talent.
