you are being nice about it

UTRGV 21 UND 11 7:41 1st UND still has more turnovers (14) than points (11). A lot of those came from a not too pretty press breaker that included very lazy cross court passes..... ugh!

UND gets a stop, Seales gets bailed out on the other end or otherwise it would have been turnover #15

Seales finally stops the bleeding, he has 6 now UTRGV 21 UND 11

UTRGV 21 UND 9 8:26 1st

this has been an awful performance on all front so far... and I am being nice about it.

UTRGV 3 Its 19-9 make it stop...

UTRGV 16 UND 9 9:06 1st

make that 13

That was UND 12th turnover.....

UTRGV 12 UND 9 11:54 2nd can't really say any team is playing well right now

wow... is this the basketball team or a team auditioning for Chopped? Too many turnovers.. lazy passes in a full court press will get stolen

UTRGV 8 UND 7 13:22 1st

can't block them all Rebraca, now he sits with 2 fouls

Walter is still struggling, he got pulled for Marko right away.

UTRGV 6 UND 4 TO UND Jones is NOT pleased with the performance right now.

The goal of inbounding the ball is NOT to throw it to the other team.

UND 4 UTRGV 4 15:55 1st

Seales from 16 feet 4-0 UND

The UTRGV shot on the other end wasn't any better

wow that was an ugly possession and shot

tip in by Rebraca after a Panoam missed 3

same starting lineup as they had for Idaho.

Is there example of this occurring, yes. More times than not I don't feel that they are taking advantage of it when they should. When Seales isn't in the middle, Rebraca and Walter should be licking their chops in that middle of the zone. They have a shot that could kill a zone. I don't understand what's going on with Walter, I thought early in the year he was figuring it out but since he got hurt and hasn't been the same player. I know that this was going to be a year of growth with so many new pieces. I understand losing to UVU, but the MSU and Idaho ones are a little harder to stomach. I thought they could potentially get around .500 this year if it all came together, like the last two times that Jones overhauled the roster. They could still get there, no doubt, but there will be some peaks and valley along the way. I like to see Brooks more as well, but as other have said, UND has a rotation problem. Its funny because last year they didn't have the depth... now they do and have too many mouths to try and feed.

Even the trip home could not help to solve UND woes as Idaho got the rare road victory against UND. Now they will hit the road trying to end a 3 game losing streak, as they take on UT-Rio Grande Valley (formerly known at UT-Pan American from the old Great West Days) Long time assistant coach Lew Hill is in his 3rd year has head coach at UTRGV, who has gone 31-44 in his time there. He is looking to trend the Vaqueros in the right direction and climb the standings here in the WAC. With a collection of forwards in Winn III and Varner II, who have been solid, the Varqueros want to do better than their 5th place projected finish in the WAC and finish better than 15-18. Key Players: Lesley Varner II (6'7 Forward) and Terry Winn III (6'7 Forward) These 2 forwards are the two leading scorers and rebounders for the Varqueros. Varner II is coming off his best performance, a 22 point game against UT-Arlington, and has had a major blossoming in his Junior season. He can shoot it a little from outside, so this is to be watched. Winn III roared out to a hot start this season but has since cooled off from his 5 straight double-digit scoring games. Won't really step out to shoot it. Both shoot around 65-70% from the line and can grab about 5-6 rebounds. Key questions: 1) Can UND get the necessary shooting? 2) How will this young team respond to this losing streak? 3) Who will be the better rebounders: Avants/Rebraca or Winn/Varner? The call: This team is stuck in a rut and needs to find any way possible to break it. I have a hunch tonight that this team will put a performance together. They will have an improved shooting and defensive performance tonight and I think they will do just enough to get a road win UND 81-77 Game is on the WAC Digital Network, like the UVU games was http://www.wacdigitalnetwork.com/
