It’s to the point where it’s just comical at how bad this team has gotten offensively. They don’t have a single person who can make anything right now.

It has to be the staff...you could draw 7 random guys from the portal every year and they wouldn't start nearly every game like this. It's inexplicable.

Another unforced turnover. Those bother me more than anything.

If the other team beats us, so be it. When UC beats themselves, it is so depressing to watch.

We've gotten an absurd amount of open 3s and shots on at the rim so far. You don't see that against Houston often.

Same game. Play hard, not smart, make too many mistakes but still not out of it.

I missed part of the pregame show. Who is Terry nelson talking about that two players got called out? Was he talking about Sean Miller?

Lmfao. 7 offensive rebounds and zero second chance points is really hard to do.

Newman is getting torched on defense and making terrible decisions on the other end.

Our three points shots are not only missing, they are not even close.

We don’t have anyone that can score. It’s boring as heck

You have to able to make shots and take care of the ball. Wes recruited these guys, no excuses, it’s not good enough.

Sad what UC basketball has become year one and year out.

Wes better hit a couple of home runs this offseason

Newman has really fallen off a cliff the last few weeks. He was probably our most important player most of the season. I can't remember his last good game.

I’m thinking I fundamentally misjudged the talent level on this team. This is like a Varsity vs JV game.

Silly mostly unforced turnovers are even more disappointing than our terrible shooting.

7 fouls called in the game. They are letting them play, which favors Houston. They are much more physical on defense and rebounding

Wes underestimated the step up from the SOCON to the AAC and it seems he underestimated again on the step up from the AAC to the Big 12.

The refs are letting them play. Rock fight.

What should we expect from a coach that never coached at high major level before taking the UC job.

Houston is really hard to play against when they are allowed to be this physical.
