2024-2025 Houston Cougars Basketball Season

It’s weird - when you look at the game previews, Walker has been showing as OUT and McFarland has been GTD.

I know he’s nowhere close to ready, but I find that odd.

Btw, where was Ramon yesterday? Wasn’t on the bench against WVU…

i think a decision has been made to try and get a medical redshirt because we dont need him…

from sampsons interviews looks like him coming back was a possibility…and probably a desire at the start of the year, as all our bigs basically fouled out to start the year i the early games… but since then lath doesnt play, the need to bring him back for like the 8-ish games that could be salvaged likely isn’t worth it

His turn with the bug

Correct. Ramon was sick according to Chris Baldwin. The reason why he wasn’t in attendance for WVU game

Why he wasn’t in attendance for WVU game? Maybe because he has a version of the flu that half the city has and they didn’t want the bug to spread through out the gym.

Sharp and Cryer both made ESPN’s Midseason Top 50, and it was surprising who they ranked higher.

New Draft rankings came out. Need a ESPN+ sub to view. Tugler is now # 48

We’re #1 in Hakeem PCT. Not sure what that is but I’d be pissed if some other team claimed it

I was at practice this evening watching Chase McCarty shoot for a while. He’s become a lot better three-point shooter than I realized. Hit 63/75 while I was watching. To my uneducated eye, his release point is higher than it had been. The ball jumps off his hand now.

Did you really count the number of makes/misses? :laughing:

Yes. They have to make 10/10 or 10/11 or better from each of five different spots behind the arc. If you miss two, it resets.

The ShotTracker technology tracks it for the staff, but I don’t have access to that data (yet). So I do it the old-fashioned way.

Is JoJo no longer allowed to take 3s?
Do they have to hit a percent in practice to get the green light to shoot in games?
