I had extra seats you should have come.

Enjoyed yall trolling the student section. No idea why they weren't clever enough to chant Cheat-er-U or any variation of that. Probably because this was the first game all season anyone has gone to a UH game lol

What did they do?

Yelled S-M-U repeatedly toward them and the students mainly just yelled and boo'd every time lol it was kinda funny. SMU probably had 1k or so fans there

Did any UH fans actually bother to show?

For a game that UH seemed to be promoting, on a weekend, there were many empty seats visible on tv. UH has to find a way to engage the city to support basketball. There have to be some local kids on the team they can build a community outreach on.

At the end of the day this proves what i have been saying. Its basketball and most UH fans and Houstonians in general are not big fans of college ball. NBA is another story however.

Sad. Give em the death penalty.

Frustrating way to lose.

Congrats Ponies.

Glad to see a good crowd come out. It wasn't packed but it was a nice crowd. An active crowd.

Proud of this team. They are laying a good foundation for Houston hoops. Gray is a beast.

We have some great coaching in this conference. The best part is that they are all a great age, and will probably be here the duration to build this league. Sampson, Tubby, Jankovich, etc.. There's going to be some good rivalries when all is said and done. All big personalities.

Can't wait for our facilities building spree to finish with roundball.

March is Coming

ECU and Temple showed how to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

Dunphy needs to go.

Can he take Lebo with him? Please?

Sure. They can go to La Salle together.

I pray Jalen Adams does not try the NBA draft. That was a heart-stopping finish.

You just followed our lead from Thursday

Only 3 AAC teams with a sub 100 RPI. What an embarrassment.

Just don't embarrass yourselves and get put out in the first weekend

Also what did you expect from the teams that made coaching changes lol. We are kind of trying to rebuild from a bad spot lol

It's an unusual year with so many teams being short handed (SMU, UCF, UCONN) while others had practically a brand new roster (Tulsa).

Next year more teams will have experienced depth which should lead to more non conf wins, which should improve their RPI.

this conference is low minor bad

that's why UC lost at SMU and dropped 8 slots in the polls. Any other top 12 team loses on the road in conference (esp to a ranked team) and they drop maybe three or four spots (see Wisconsin last week).

We are legit Low minor bad: one or two good teams, and a bunch of scrubs. It's going to KILL the seeding of UC and SMU in the ncaa.


SMH

At least if UCONN, Memphis, and Temple (the only other teams with a pedigree and that act like they give a rats about hoops were good/ranked, people would AT BEST say the AAC is top heavy, like the old CUSA days (UC, UofL, Marquette, Memphis) but we don't even have that now. We are like the WCC (Gonzaga and St. Mary's and then a bunch of no name scrubs but we aren't even that good because nobody in the conference is as good as Gonzaga)

Basically we are a poor man's WCC right now.

Unreal.

Football looks good today and is causing I believe false hope. We are still near to the recent shift (P5/G5 split whereby power schools are getting $30mil/yr a piece and we are getting $2mil/yr or worse). The AAC is good in football and has held its own. The crowds have been good, the ratings good etc. This is causing many of you to think that we just need to hold and and it will all come around down the road (money, tv deal, basketball, etc.). I think that is fools gold thinking now.

The more years that pass and P5's, even crap ones make $30mil + and we all make peanuts is another year towards the end game which is, G5 becoming the new FCS. This talk of the G5 playoff is only the beginning and points to that as well. When that happens, football is over for us, at least as we know it now. It becomes 'second rate' in the minds of the nation at that point, just like the current FCS is now. When that happens, and it will, the only major sport we have left that still can compete on the national level is men's hoops.

That's why I'd like to see UC and UCONN, plus whoever else (Temple, Memphis) get to the Big East in hoops. This way, when the football bus turns into the football short bus for us all, we are still at least competing in a big boy conference in hoops.

i know this thinking looks stupid today because the AAC football has been good and holding its own, but my point is, that isn't going to last forever due to the financial discrepancy that has been created with this P5/G5 split. So the move in hoops to the Big East is more a move for the future.

Don't get me wrong, I don't mind the AAC all in all, but we have to be looking down the road and when we do, that's what I see.
