Looking ahead... Houston

[storrsroars]

Considering this is the boneyard it seems that maybe a Limerick should be the next choice.

There once was a coach named Ollie
When hired, the Boneyard was jolly
Then he got a divorce
And without much remorse
Turned our hoops dreams into a folly.

Very nice, but a deduction for no jmick content.

In fact I propose we change the name from "limerick" to "jimemick"

You have to read between the lines: the Ollie slam was his homage to @JMick

This would be a very nice “wtf win”

time for some new goals
singles section saves season
for jmick and stain

@Mano

True story, I stopped starting the Haiku threads once I realized we were like 3-6 on days I did. Hoped someone else could bring more positive mojo. Also I’m the least superstitious person you’ll ever find. Save for, of course, UConn silliness.

Uh..Houston is the 9th ranked team in the country. They will beat us by whatever they want, we straight up do not have the talent for them.

Bah. Bunch of 3* and 4* guys. They play well as a team. Very tough on D. They aren't beating people with superior basketball talent or athleticism like Duke is. They win close games but don't really blow out anybody except cupcakes. That's a sign of an experienced, veteran team. They play four guards at times, and remind me of a better version of last year's URI team.

You know what you need to beat an experienced team? Talent. We do not have the talent to beat them, they will beat us by whatever they want to beat us by. Same thing URI would have done to us last year.

That's silly. If Al plays they have no chance to beat us by 20. They simply don't have much offense. They also don't have a functional center. Josh can score against them. So can Cobb.

There once was a hoop team from Storrs
Their season was no longer about scores
But on this St. Valentine's night, with the light just right
@JMick and @Stainmaster became each other's whores

An AAC ref from Nantucket...

 

[CTBasketball]

Should probably save AG for the AAC Tournament...

Yeah, can we get one of those? I feel like we never get lucky. Even when we play decent we get bad bounces, bad calls, injuries.... maybe fans of all bad teams feel this way but it seems to be real.

An AAC ref from Nantucket...

Waved his hands as he shouted, "No bucket!"...

Giving Hurley a T .....

Causing chatroom eruptions, "Aw, [ ] it!"

Yo, socialist... one line per person!

Looking ahead to Houston turns into a bash Ollie limerick contest
Only in this demented place

He contested he was fired for race.

There once was a poster who whined
That limericks of Ollie weren't kind
But what escapes this bozo
Is it's all about mojo
So we can leave all this losing behind.

 

[bazz&boujee]

can’t win national championship without beating houston first. 79-65 huskies

 

[SwingDog]

Can we just not play that game? lol

Nope. We're playing it and not playing to lose.

 

[Husk04ies]

Just watched Tarin Smith on instagram a friend asked him about AG and he said he was looking really good in practice....so hopefully that's a good sign for returning. Fingers crossed

 

[minidarren]

Im looking ahead to when we play Houston in 2021. Was this not the intention of the thread?
