What happened off-court?
From the CA today:
"After the Tigers suffered their most lopsided loss of the season at Central Florida last Saturday, which followed an unspecified off-court incident during the team's road trip to South Florida..."

Anybody know anything about it?

I don't know of the specific incident. I just heard Tubby was not too happy with attitudes and effort, and he let the team know. He felt they were picking days to "take off" like they were in the NBA.

I could believe that based on how they played.
But I don't know how short a leash tubby keeps them on, either.

RE: What happened off-court?
Quote:What he means: This was the start of a more long-winded quote by Smith, but it showed the self-reflection that accompanied his change in demeanor following that UCF loss. He looked inward, realized he deserved some of the blame as well and then went all-in for the rest of the season. While depth is a legitimate reason for some of this team’s issues, Smith decided he had too often been using it as a crutch. This team is good enough to win now, but it’s not good enough to coast in practice. Whether or not Memphis wears down over the final month of the season because of that philosophy, this past week confirmed to Smith that these players respond best to being challenged and tested.

Like when a coach shares the blame and gives true insights to his errors.

Welp, seems whatever message that needed to be received was by the time Tulsa rolled into town.

Let's just hope there is no pattern.

With our depth, it would be hard use playing time as a threat.

You have got to be joking, right? If you're not, I sure hope he changes his mind.

Yeah, and Peter Parker got super strength after being bitten by a spider, so I guess anything's possible. 04-cheers

In the past, players have stayed out late before bigger games than UCF ....
