I agree. Nice way to gut it out. The fact that we are having to make a last-second miracle win at home against Samford is pretty ominous, though.

I think the team has heart, the players don't make bone-headed plays, but the lack of talent is astonishing. There was virtually no distinguishable difference in size, talent or speed between us and Samford.

Jamal has a chance to be good, so does Nickleberry. They both need more minutes. Happy for kids... but i cant stand the sight of Tubby or anyone on this staff.

Really, to me, I think they do. Maybe not really boneheaded, but they make what look like good passes to people that are not expecting them, not even looking in the right direction, or 100mph from 5 feet away. That, for the most part, was what the 5 turnovers to start the second half were.

A gutty win by the Tigers. There is no such thing as an ugly win. Defeats are ugly.

Well, I saw A LOT of bone-headed, careless turnovers in the 2nd half. But, they dont quit and snatched victory from the jaws of defeat.

Well, he does have to coach more than twice as many games as Norvell, and doesnt get as big of a staff.

RE: ***Official Memphis vs Samford Game Thread** (12/5)
Questions:
1. Why does Tubby insist on tactics and lineups that cause us to fall behind in the first half?
2. Why do we shoot so many threes when we are a terrible three point shooting team? The better option is to drive to the basket and hope for foul, offensive rebound, or score.
