@BShark

If Dave is back then we don't need one. Still a fan of this one unless he goes to Kentucky

Wow shocking pick.

Miles of TCU is undecided whether to return or pursue professional options. Interesting, it did not sound like he would declare and leave the option available to come back. Either or situation

Load up this weekend you'll need them both to celebrate!

Chip and Pace... β€’ Mar 28, 2022 03:34 PM

@Texas-Hawk-10

The only reason I preferred Houston was because their offense was limited and I think Self with a week to prepare for a team that doesn't have offensive firepower would be have been an advantage to us. Otherwise I agree Villanova is the better matchup overall, especially now.

Justin Moore β€’ Mar 28, 2022 03:18 PM

@benshawks08

Yup as farmer said we got history with Archy. His brother isn't any good though.

Chip and Pace... β€’ Mar 28, 2022 02:57 PM

I agree pace is a big factor with the Moore injury. I think it was anyway. Nova just grinds, plays slow and that's how they have managed to get this far with basically 6 guys. If we could punch them in the mouth early with pace it will be tough sledding for them to come back.

The biggest key I see Saturday will be points in the paint. Dixon is their only big, they do not have a sub for him. Samuels is like Wilson in that he plays inside out. Dave, Jalen, Mitch. The advantage is use them enough to open the wings to driving to the basket. Pound the paint again on this nova team. No shot blockers, poor rebounding team at both ends.

Gradey Dick β€’ Mar 28, 2022 01:43 PM

Meh, kids say a lot on social media. We'll know in the next few weeks if he got that G-League invite. If not expect him on campus. Until then believe anything with grain of salt.

Justin Moore β€’ Mar 28, 2022 01:25 PM

Statistically the loss of Moore is just huge. At 6'4, 210 pounds he's a lot in the mold of Ochai Agbaji physically, he's a 'big' guard. Athletic, skilled and poised. Big shot taker, Big Shot maker is what I've seen out of him consistently.

Season averages- 34.6 mpg, 14.8 ppg, 4.8 reb pg, 75% FT, 35% 3pt fg (80 made 3's) 2nd on the team. In the tournament 13ppg, 47% 3ptfg (10 made).

There's no question he's the 1A to Collin Gillespie on this team. He played in 86% of minutes on the season on a team that plays 6 guys & sprinkles in a reserve guard as the 7th guy + a freshman guard used similarly to Zach/Yesufu on the season. They had zero depth and now have to bring their 6th man into the starting lineup.

2021-22 PER's & Stats β€’ Mar 28, 2022 11:35 AM

Updated post Weekend games. We are Final 4 bound and how sweet it is!

Ochai needs 9 points to reach #15 place on the all-time scoring list. Right now Och sits 3rd in the Self era for points in a season (699) trailing Frank Mason (753) & Dedric Lawson (700). Incredible season.

Other milestones

Christian Braun needs 4 points to reach 1,000 for his career.

Remy Martin needs 4 points to reach 2,000 points for his career.

David McCormack sits in #46th place all-time on the scoring list.

@wissox

Awesome post!

How was the crowd from your vantage point. Seemed like when we went on that run to start the 2nd half the place errupted.

Justin Moore β€’ Mar 28, 2022 12:08 AM

35 mpg to replace on a team that goes 7 deep. Good thing the 38 timeouts save them just a bit

One of the best pure shooters I've seen in some time

If 3 or 4 guys shoot above their pay grade sure. They don't have deep bench at all. It's a gigantic departure from their lineup

Sucks for him. Very good player and would have been a really tough matchup defensively

Great for us😁

Elite 8 Chat β€’ Mar 27, 2022 09:44 PM

Moore averages nearly 15 a game. Nova only scores 72 a game. Doing the math. Well let's just say we just gotta play our game and we got a REAL good chance
