Tonight's win

So, this is my first post of the season (mostly because I haven't had anything productive to say). I think the win tonight was big for us in several ways. First, it was pretty clear to me that Josh was sitting Tarik for the first half, and it benefited the tigers in a couple of ways.

1. It demonstrated Josh's authority to the team. Given the whipping we took for most of the first half, it would have been very easy for him to back down and put Tarik in, but he didn't. He took (or maintained) control of his team.

2. It showed Tarik that he IS needed, and that he has the be in the game mentally even when he isn't in it physically. I think tonight will prove to be a big confidence booster for Tarik, and the team as a whole because...

We got down big and we didn't fold. Yes, we knew their shooting would come back down to Earth, but we still had to stay focused and play our game, and we did. I know it was "just" Tulane, but I thought that given the way it went down, today's win was huge for us.
