Too damn much Frazier dribbling around and not passing,, too many misses point blank. and no defense to force turnovers or defend the 3. HORRIBLE play down the stretch. Where is the coaching??? no timeouts,, no adjustments,, ****

I heard several timeouts called by Haase in the game.

You have no right to say this team has no Heart. Shame on you.

Don't loose heart blazers!

Maybe T-Rex Pennebaker can hit enough homers to get the MVP award.

Haase's demeanor in front of the microphone is not his demeanor when the microphone is off.

Question on timeouts... He never seems to take a timeout to stop their runs, but when we hit a big basket, or go on a mini run, he calls a quick timeout.

There is no defense for a loss like this. It's pathetic and an embarrassment.

All of a sudden it feels like UAB football season again.

Yep, by one point. It also had lowered UAB's projected conference record to 8-8.

I believe Tulsa is better than North Texas.

At least we can't accuse football of dragging basketball down anymore.

Who gives a flying monkey turd who was favored? The once proud UAB Blazers just added another team to the list of teams that beat us badly.

How many does it take?

Swing is a no show. Washington just has foul trouble. Pull Swing and start Denzel. Has anyone else noticed Rod's troubles in conference?

I thought that after the Middle Tennessee loss. This team is not near as good as I thought they were back in mid December when the record was 9-2. Now UAB is 12-6.

We did beat Newberry.

Who cares? We are officially a football school now!
(I kid, I kid!).

We lost to a better team tonight as much as it pains me to say.

That's the one and only hope for this season at this point. Things don't get any easier. Next up is Tulsa who has been strong in CUSA play and who we have always seemed to struggle with.

Could very realistically be looking at 1-4 in CUSA coming back home for 2 games that won't be cupcakes (ODU and ECU).

Sure you can say that there are still a bunch of games in front of us, but we are regressing. I see nothing that makes me think we're going to turn this around. Of course I hope we do, but I'm not seeing the passion that was there earlier this year. And we're getting too much sporadic play from Swing, CJ, and Rucker.

At this point, I think it's very likely UAB will finish around 8th-9th. Very disappointing as I really thought we were more like a top 4 team.

Looking forward to the Rice game.

This conference is no joke. Coaches and players need to step up. No more point shav... lol
