They're good when they're shooting 3s well and stagnant when they don't.

I saw them against Stanford. I wasn't impressed. They do have a tall point guard who really is the only player that can create. They play with another smaller point guard who seems solid but nothing great. They do have a lot of bigs that like to crash the glass. We are going to have to control their point guard and make other people beat us and make sure we rebound well. If we do I don't see us losing against them.

Shaka definitely has his fingerprint on this team but they arent as hectic as his VCU teams. They do try ot get it down low as they have weapons in the front court but the 2 times I have seen them play they dont seem to be extremely dangerous. Obviously without Brimah UConn will struggle somewhat but if they play the way they are capable this should be a good W.

yes, he tries to press, that's who he is

and yes, they do have an inside game which has looked both awesome and mediocre from time to time

they've lost to WA, a weak team
MI, a team we've beaten
A & M, another team with mixed results

they've beaten UNC, a very good win
and won at Stanford, which is looking less and less impressive

I like that this will be Texas's first game in 10 days. Remember two years ago when UConn hosted Stanford? Same kind of thing...UConn had a long lay off, and played one of their worst games of the year.
