THis is my first time posting posting, so let me start off by saying that it is very interesting getting different opinions on the teams in the ASC. Second, I'm a recent UT-D grad and player so I'm pulling for UT-D.
The UTT UTD game was not the refs fault. If anybody saw the game Tyler lost that game. Rodgers was fouled, are refs supposed to stop officiating bc there is a few secs left on the clock? The Tyler player made a bad play, he fouled, they called it. That is not cheating, that's just not being smart. Tyler also took a terrible shot to try and win the game.
The Ozarks game, Ozarks has a right to be upset with how that ended. Once again, it didnt have to come to that, all Oz had to do was inbound the ball and they would have won. I repeat all they had to do was INBOUND the ball and they couldnt even do that. Rodgers once again made a great play and got a jump ball. All these close games have one thing in common, the opposing teams had plenty of opportunities to win but didnt, it is nobodies fault but their own.
Onto to the Tournament, I'm going UT-D to repeat. They got a great group of experienced players who won it last year and want to win it again.
Gotta lookout for ETBU, they could cause some problems with their athleticism and length. Should Be a good tournament down in UMHB.
I disagree with you, The UTT game you dont call a foul with .7 seconds left on the opposite free throw line. If you were watching the game, about the middle of the game the ref made three straight calls against the UTT pg while he was just guarding the ball, not even on drives.... This was right after the a heated discussion between Bizot and the ref. Needless to say, that same ref made the call to end the game.
Refs tend to swallow the whistle at the end of the game, kinda like they did in the UTD UO game. Im not saying UTD cheated or its the refs fault UTT lost, but it should have gone to OT.
And to the UTD UO game? Were you there? First of all the foul that send barnes to the line when they were down 3 was completely bogus. The defender might not of even touched him and they called a hold, he was even wide open coming off the screen. Then yes all they had to do was inbounds the ball, but rodgers got about 3 fingers on the ball reaching over an across the UO players shoulder and they call a jump ball. The call doesnt get made if the game is anywhere else. And then the theres the travel and the scoreskeeper starting the clock late. Those games really didnt effect the standings but still, I dont agree with the stuff the happened. Especially at UTD.
To the tourney, I dont like UTD to repeat unless Greene plays. They just dont look as good without him. UTT is hot right now, only game they lost in last 5 was the one point loss to UTD. And the played UMHB close early this season. Had the lead late and only lost by 4.
I will say UMHB is the favorite because of the support they get at home. But watch out for MC, they always find a way to get to the finals.

Anyone else hear or see the ending to UTT UTD game? Refs cheated UTT out of win, called a foul in tie game with .9 seconds left on the opposite end of the court. It was on a rebound of a missed 3, UTD made second free throw. UTT coach an the ref got into it early in the 2nd an he then called 2 or 3 fouls in a row on the UTT point guard while he was just guarding the ball, not even on drives. Needless to say the same refwas the one who made the call at the end of the game.
Not to mention the win UTD stole at home against Ozarks, Two bogus calls in the last 10 seconds against Ozarks up 3. One foul led to two free throws and the other led to UTD ball under their own basket with about 5 seconds left. They run a lob play to 35, he misses but hustles to get his own rebound on the opposite side of the goal, trips and take about two extra steps (clearly a travel but no call) then shoots a fade away. Shot goes over the goal, 34 catches it in the air and tips it in....not even at the buzzer. Ozarks still had a chance to inbound the ball and heave one..... Can all they happen in 5 seconds? NOOO WAY, and needless to say when the cameras zoomed out the Ozarks assistant coach was yelling ballistically at the UTD scores table. A little home cooking for the comets.

well the ETBU coach basically admitted to it in his interview on their website. hes been in the conference for awhile. maybe someone should tell him the rules, or maybe he doesnt care. sounds like cheating to me tho.

So your looking at like about a 10 player difference, an some of those players are probably kids who are just coming, doesnt mean the coach recruited them. Plus some are going to quit while others are not goin to be good enough, should be easy to get the number to 15. This isnt high school anymore, even if the coach recruited you, if there are 15 players better than you then they dont have to keep you around. thats how it goes. im sure all of the top programs do it like she did.

its not poor its smart, like you said. the coaches really dont know how good you are until they get to see you play against other kids, especially on the division three level. if you only bring in 12 kids for the whole team and 3 or 4 of em arent as good as you thought, then you cant even practice. obviously what she is doing works. bringin in 25 id guess atleast 5 are gonna quit before the season starts an then theres probably another 5 who just arent good enough an they can redshirt a year an try to play the next an still play all four years. and 25 is probably not including the kids who just show up an think they can play because its d3

Found this on UT Tyler athletic website...
Deike's Contract Not Renewed by University
The University of Texas at Tyler has chosen not to renew the contract of head women's basketball coach and associate athletic director Terri Deike.
"We thank Coach Deike for her dedication and service to UT Tyler, the athletics department, and the women's basketball program," said UT Tyler Athletic Director James Vilade. "Coach Deike played a major role in helping UT Tyler move toward NCAA membership and she was involved in many other facets of the athletics department."
Assistant Coach Cassi Little will assume the women's basketball coaching duties on an interim basis and a national search for a new head coach will begin immediately. Deike will continue in her role as associate athletics director until August 31st.
Deike was UT Tyler's first women's basketball coach and had a 90-61 record over six seasons. Her teams won three American Southwest Conference East Division championships and appeared in the ASC tournament twice.
....There must be something goin on here cuz Deike did an amazing job building that program so fast, I did some more research and found this article
http://www.tylerpaper.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20090701/SPORTS06/907010312
She doesnt sound happy at all. Lot of interesting quotes in that article. It also says Becky Taylor transferred to HSU....whats goin on at UTT? anybody know?

He changed his line up every game. The players werent gettin in trouble in class on friday when they were traveling on the road. He started 10 different players, no player started every game. So that proves that theory wrong. I even noticed that #35 who did not get many minutes started a game late in the year.
Davis isnt even the best defender on the team. He may have had 1 good game an shut down Josh Johnson. Davis is a solid role player. One of the least athletic starting guards in the East.

Coach
Terry Butterfield - UTD- Not very talented but run their stuff to perfection
(Sidenote: Bob Davis - LETU- does not deserve this award. He underachieved last year and did not make the playoffs and this year his team is stacked. He should win every game by 20 with the likes of Evers, Vanwright, Smith, and Rockmore. I am pretty sure if any other team in the conference had Vanwright they would be dominating too.)
I definitley see your arguement, but in his defense, I don't think you are giving enough credit to how good our league is to even consider anyone winning games by 20 points. If that were the arguement every year, MC wouldn't even get any consideration. Please also consider that Coach Davis RECRUITED these studs and convienced them to come to the most expensive school in the conference.
Last year, LETU did underachieve, but we also lost our starting PG - which we see can be a very important aspect of the game (look at McM)
So with that being saidm while I see your argument, let's not just rule him out yet :-)
Most expensive school in the conference for a regular student. Ive heard first hand from one of your athletes how much they pay a semester because of all the made up leadership scholarships. Not too hard to convince people to play for that amount of money. I also imagine that the assistant put in most of the miles watching kids play and finding players. Is the pg you are mentioning, the same pg that is out this year? Kinda ruins you point that he is important.
One last thing for Coach Davis, when healthy you have one of the best teams in the conference. Nobody can match up against you. Yet it never fails, EVERY GAME you adjust your roster to the other teams. Make them match your lineup, because theres nobody that can. I wonder how many starting lineups he went throught this year.
Josh Davis should not be Defensive MVP.
With all that said.........great year for LeT

What is the status of Van Wright for the tournament? The students at LeT have been very involved this year (with the men's team, not so much the women's). Looks like they only like them when they are winning. Im sure it would be a major disappointment if Van Wright cant play and they lose to UMHB in the first round.

horrible week for me so i went with some upsets...
Dont look now, but MC is makin a push to get the tournament in Clinton. They can do it with some big wins an UTD slippin up twice.
UTT just wants to get in an I think they will get two big wins this weekend to help the cause.
The bottom of the West is very confusing. CTX will seperate a little bit this week. While TLU an SU go 0-2.
