lol calvin sampson giving the fist pound at the end
Have to admit, after the Grimes miss with ~16 secs left, in a 2-possession game, I was surprised Sampson didn't have his guys ready to foul, especially if Vital was not the ball handler (Bouk got the rebound). 16 seconds is enough time to jack at least 3 treys and hope for the best.
But he did go over and give a nice talk and hug to Vital in a very classy move. Lots of respect for CV from a really good coach there! Nice job by Sampson.
It was. I think one of the beat writers tweeted that the league has suggested that teams don't shake hands for the remainder of the season. Seems kinda silly given all the physical contact on the court, but whatever.I wasnt sure if that was a coronavirus preemptive move?
I'm really bullish on him and the team next season. If you just look at his #'s for the season, they look bad but if you focus on the way he's playing the last month you can tell he's going to be a stud. He's already our most poised guy. He gets the ball to the right people in the right spots, he doesn't get flustered, and he's starting to show more and more flashes of his athleticism. There's a reason we had Gaffney inbounding the ball every time to close out that game, and he got it to the right guy (CV) every single time.Gaffney is going to be awesome. Only seeing glimpses now but it’s coming out more and more.
Houston board freaking out that Sampson gave Hurley a weak fist bump because he must not like him. I guess they never heard of coronavirus.lol calvin sampson giving the fist pound at the end

After watching the full replay:
- For all the flack that AAC refs deservedly get, I thought this crew was very solid. Were there a few bad calls? Sure but none I would consider egregiously bad and I thought they were very consistent in their calls, especially with respect to freedom of movement.
I'm so glad Whaley will be back
They announced it during the game at Gampel too that there wouldn't be an end of game handshake line per request of the AAC.It was.

Yeah I wouldn't mind them continuing a series with Houston-Sampson is doing great things with that program and they won't decline anytime soon. Memphis and Cincinnati are the other two from the American that I would like a continuing series with as well. Anyone else from the American, no disrespect to them, just doesn't move the needle.Houston and Rhode Island played a home and home when Hurley was there, in part because of the coaches‘ relationship. People are dumb.
I don’t know who UConn will have to play from the AAC in the future, but they could certainly do much worse than Houston.
Situations evolve, man. You never had a bad take?I remember when this board was so ready for this kid to transfer before the season started.
Where are these posters now?
Agreed that was the worst but they evened it out with giving Gaffney the bucket on his and-1 later in the game where he clearly took an extra step.The missed goaltend call at 9:40 in the 1st half was egregious
