Right here where I'm always at, watching my team play when they're on. The score of this game doesn't change my mind one bit. This team is soft and doesn't consistently hustle. They do if the the 3's are going but that isn't how a mature team plays basketball. You can't make the ball go in but you can always play with intensity and effort. Shouldn't matter the opposition or what's the score. If Haase can't teach his teams to do that, we will never become the program we can be no matter who he signs.

The lack of defense and inconsistent intensity is why we're in the NIT and not back in the NCAA. Unless it changes the best we can hope for is right back here and, no, I'm not satisfied at all by being in the NIT. UAB teams should have one goal. Anything else and we settling for mediocrity.
