Thanks again Rulzzz!

I like how this team can play and win in so many different ways.

Out score you
Out stop you
Out rebound you
Out turnover you
Out 3 point you
Out free throw you
Out bench you
Out coach you
Out hustle you
Out screen you
Out trap you

I’m sure there are more.

When something isn’t right, the other phases pick us up.

Let's take Utah to the Out-house! :D

It's weird to think about Utah having a basketball team. That concept had never come to mind until this week. I don't think I've ever seen a picture or video of a Utah men's basketball team or player or ever heard it referenced in sports news. It's like my brain just assumed they only do football lol.

From what I've seen/heard of Jess Settles on espn+, I think he does a good and fair job. He doesn't seem or act like a Hawk homer.
Oh, he's a huge Hawk homer all right, but he does a decent job of masking it in games that don't involve the Hawks.

I definitely worded that wrong. Anyway, he seemed to do pretty well at his 'part-time' gig.

Fun nugget - Coach Green and Coach Crawford know well of the Madsen brothers on Utah who are from Mayo Senior in Rochester, Minnesota. Recruited and offered both out of HS. They're the leading scorers for the Utes, but both played for Cincinnati 4 years ago. I believe TJ was interested in Gabe when he was in the portal but don't think we offered him.

Rick Majerus had quite a run in the mid to late 90’s.

Keith Van Horn was a serious baller and had a pretty good NBA career.

Oddly they made it to the NCAA championship game the year after he was drafted.

That was a long time ago and now they are a regular enemy.

Beat them badly.

They were a fun team to watch and easy to cheer for when they were going against the Arizona, NC and Kentucky powerhouses at the time.

Majerus led them to 4 Sweet 16s, 2 Elite 8s, one Final Four and one championship game. Along with Van Horn, he also had Andre Miller and Michael Doleac

Yep.

The Miller - Doleac combination got them to the Final.

If TJ met Dad, which I'm sure he did, I don't think that meeting lasted long. Psychopath.
