Their fans didn't even show up to play us, that's a program without a future.

UCA with an 82-67 WBI quarterfinal win over Weber State.

Good for the Sugar Bears. If they can keep their defense top notch, they could win the WBI.

Edit: plus that 82 points has to be close to a season high. If they can score like that, they are dangerous.

But i think there is a NCAA rule against players transferring within the conference. I believe he would have to go to Juco and then he would be allowed to come back into southland
I did a bit of research, and apparently, it's up to the applicable conference's rules on how long the student would have to wait before becoming eligible at his/her new school within the same conference. There are no NCAA restrictions in that regard.
The NCAA restriction would be across the board. He will have to sit out the normal one year unless granted a one-year exception.

Quinton Thomas at SLU is a good example. Started at Nicholls, transferred to SLU after his Sophomore season, sat out a year, then played his senior season.

They showed a bit of Prison Tech's game on one of the Houston TV station's sportscasts tonight. I've seen bigger crowds at Little Dribblers games.

Take away the band, the cheerleaders, the vendors, the media, the ticket takers, and the maintenance crew who were all forced to be there and the number dwindles to about 75 that actually cared. ">

Yeah, and about 7 students who had nothing better to do in Prison Town.

Not to be too tacky, but really a screenshot of your notes page tweet? It's a double tap to copy. Aren't tweets bigger now? Or at least can we crop a pic? Anyway....

Sucks for HBU after losing Ibarra and now their one good player. But that had to be a hard year.

Now I really was being tacky. Sorry. I thought it was the HBU player announcing his leaving with a screenshot of something he wrote up. Not something you posted 76. No offense meant to anyone.

He was a nice player - nothing outstanding though. Got tired of losing, with more losing straight ahead, I suppose. He's from North Carolina. May have gotten homesick, too. Some ACC team could be interested in him as a role player.

Unbelievable! One of the best stealing point guards in the country. Never thought he was all that tough, but always thought he gave his best. Shocking really.

I'm sure he's looking to be a starter. I don't know if we could offer him that, but it would make our pg position ridiculously defensive.

Then they will be happy that they lost to N. Colorado last night in the CIT semifinal, 99-80.

SHSU had as easy of a path to the semifinal a.s they could get in the CIT. N. Colorado isn't a pushover, after all, they're well aware what small Colorado schools are capable of

An offer to play was made to one of our guys but obviously they chose not to participate. A bummer for us fans, but offers to play went out late, so it interfered with plans kids made for Easter.

The Southland should be able to piece together a MUCH better team than that...

Probably a lack of interest in the players. It's not a game that means anything or would benefit you in any way. Just a fun little trip to San Antonio. Remember, millennials don't watch college basketball .

Keep in mind this is for seniors only.

3x3 basketball is meh anyway. Would have taken the extra exposure though.

Yep seniors only. They are covering expenses or get a small bit of cash for winning. I'd say that I'd love to see our guys participate next year, but Final 4 teams are ineligible (for obvious reasons).

Tied at 50 with 56 seconds left, UCA couldn't score again and lose to Yale in the WBI Finals.
