The refs have called it right. Just because there's contact doesn't mean it's a foul. If the defender is there and jumps straight up and stays in that plane, it isn't a foul.

You forgot the Niang corollary to the "straight up in the plane" no-call. If it's Niang, that's a foul.

Somewhere in the U.S.
This team suddenly forgets how to play their style of game on the road. Space the floor and whip quick passes around the outside. Instead......we get 5 individuals doing their own thing......no teamwork. And defense? Does not exist.

Frustrating to watch what should be a good team play this way.

I guess I have this ability to shut my emotions down as soon as this team starts doing this meltdown thing. I've pretty much accepted that we're going to lose already. Makes it much easier.

We have absolutely no effort out there right now. Texas is getting every single rebound or loose ball.

Niang has a bad habit of moving. Part of being a freshman. He doesn't understand positioning yet so he gets out of position and has to shuffle.

We're getting outmuscled badly in the paint on both sides and tossing up some WTF shots. :no:

So you're saying you're ok with Percy's two passes this year? Because that's essentially what this thread is about.
