Eh....we're trying to get Ollie #fired. If you help us out with that, then I'd consider that a job well done.

If I wear SMU gear and bring a sign that reads KEEP KEVIN on Thursday....will that help?

I hate to be "that guy" to rain on our (UH's) parade, but even though Gray scored a bunch this past weekend, he also turned the ball over too much for my liking too.

It's hard to not like his shooting touch, and how he drives to the rim even in traffic, but that said, I think he's too in love with his own shot and tries to do too much sometimes when the smart thing to do is pass the ball out.

He made some big shots against WSU, one sticks out in my mind, after he made the shot, as he lackadaisically ran back down court, he was beckoning the fans to let him hear the cheers. That wouldn't have been so bad but WSU was pushing the ball down court in a hurry after the shot and got it up to one of their 3-pt sharpshooters - Rob Gray's man - and luckily for us he missed the shot because Gray was still about 10 feet away when he shot it.

I just wish he'd quit posing, and complaining to the ref, and pouting if he doesn't get the foul call, and just focus on hitting his free throws in the BIG games, and generally being a leader and let all the accolades take care of themselves.

But as long as we win, I'll gladly put up with those shenanigans.

i completely i disagree and think its the opposite...

he was SO passive before the first wichita loss...he wasnt looking for his shot and and only shot when he felt it was necessary. he literally passed the ball on the numerous game winning shots, and had tons of games with 10 or less shots...since wichita loss he has gone back to his 'ill carry this team if i have to' mentality from last year.. i think when he plays like that we are extremely good, he draws so much attention everyone else gets open shots...before the Wichita loss i wouldnt have had him fist team all-aac..the last few games he might have positioned himself for player of the year

AAC still with 8 Top 100 RPI teams....very solid


I think we are looking at 4 bids. Not amazing, but step in right direction.


Just need Temple, Memphis, and UCONN to fire their clown coaches and hire some real talent and the AAC will be legit power. (as long as UH, Tulane, UCF and SMU keep it up)

9 teams top 100. Tulsa is 119, and USF/ECU are 250+

Yeah I mean if Temple, UConn and Memphis were playing at a high level this league would be something to watch even with USF and ECU slumming. At least both of them have a coach in his first year or will be getting a new coach soon. So there is hope they improve. I really love what Dunleavy is doing at Tulane. He is really lifting them off the mat.
