Francis developed the entire time he was here. Who’s to say McFarland, Cenac, Sakho and McCarty can’t hold the fort if Tug needs to sit? Sakho is probably the closest in skill set as Javier but that’s not necessarily the requisite.

Would love to have Kingston & Jojo in the Small Ball lineup. Cause of their athleticism, defensive abilities. But their outside shooting is my concern

If you’re gonna play small, Jojo is probably your 5 man, cause the elite rim protection. And then at least 3 shooters on the floor.

it’s been a few years since we’ve had a death lineup of backups that allowed us to run folks out the gym. can’t wait to blow some teams out this season.

This team is going to be good!

Man, saying McCarty might be our best shooter is some kind of statement when talking about a team with Emmanuel Sharp on it!

For UH season ticket holders, not a fan.

But overall its a good balance for a non conference. Difficult neutral site games & cupcake home games

Always something to complain about… but with our current high level of performance and a very tough Big12 schedule, I think we cannot expect to be seeing any highly ranked non-conference opponents at the Fertitta Center. It is what it is!

Ready to see the team but hopefully football will be a nice distraction.

CKS said it months ago. High Majors do not want to play us at home in nonconference.

Either the Big 12 needs to get the Big 10 to match up with us and give us a better matchup than the Big 12-Big East Battle or someone needs to grow the balls to do a home and home.

Clutch City already pointed it out that CKS already said don’t have high expectations for the Non-con home slate. It’s not really a complaint to state the obvious which is that Fertita slate of games is rough. Bad is bad, doesn’t make it a complaint.
