OT: NCAA Tournament 2025

[MinerManiac]

Just saw Onyema with a great blocked shot, thinking about how much we could have used him protecting our rim.

Aside from that last scrum and turnover, he’s playing a decent game.

I remember UTEP (Terry) recruiting Tristan Clark out of San Antonio Wagner around the same time he was recruiting Onyema as an after thought. I also remember seeing Nevil Shed talking with Clark at the game with UTSA. In high school, Clark was a man among boys and ended up at Baylor, but unfortunately got injured. Now, Onyema, who no one else even recruited in high school, including Golding, is getting some decent PT in the tourney. Funny how life works out sometimes.

We rep Onyema and John Jay HS, Exit 7, Pride of the Westside, Adjustable Rate Mortgage-outside the loop-suburban living community!

Say so long to ATX CRT! Bobs Steak and Chop may never recover from your missing patronage!

Yeah, running back from the 3 point line.

Mcneese St, who plays in a horrible conference and whose coach is openly admitting he’s basically the next NC St coach, just beat Clemson. They went 18-2 in ACC play. There’s no excuses for how awful the UTEP program is.

 

[BillyFlava08]

Their coach has the same base salary as Golding and they play in front of 3500 fans, maybe we should drop attendance to that number and we’ll finally make the tournament and win a game

Could we please play defense the way Drake plays defense?

Drake got a crappy seeding. MVC is always a solid mid major every year.

I don’t think we get your point yet ….

Michigan got bailed out by the refs. And the Mountain West gonna Mountain West.

Sometimes the best players are in the lower levels.

UNM showing great D and team rebounding (everyone going up with both hands, boy what a concept!)

And all this after losing an All-American to Texas Tech. Imagine only if El Paso/UTEP were similar to Albuquerque/UNM?

 

[picks up]

New Mexico is about to beat us by 20 annually soon.

Liberty getting s--tcanned.

People on here were bragging about how good CUSA was this year too…

And one person on here had Liberty going to the sweet 16.

 

[TxRdKiller]

Go Lobos. Nice win today.

This just further displays how much we sucked down the stretch. I say down the stretch, because there was a time when we loonies like the class of CUSA then NMSU humbled us and we were really never the same again.
