He's gotta realize that its not the NBA and Hardaway should have talked to him but his mentality is NBA not college. Williams finally got the T in the second half.
That's 3 games in a row he's gotten a technical. You would think a 25 year old would eventually learn how to shut up.
Geez, what's a 25yo doing in college? Hope it's to get a degree. If it's 3 games, then their chances of going far in any tournament is slim although Memphis looks like a team that could upset anybody.

Finally had a game with no T. Hope they can keep rolling. Haven't been in the tourney for a while.

Yes, they had a nice run in the NIT but that's a tourney, not the tourney.

At one time, the NIT was a much bigger deal than the NCAAs.

Yep....and the event that changed things...In 1943 a benefit game for WWII was organized to where the 1943 NIT Champs, St. John's, played the 1943 NCAA Champs, WYOMING. Guess who won that game? :D

Hope we can pull it off but very unlikely.
On a side note, how does the MWC get 4 in the tourney and the AAC get only 2? Well the MWC is now 0-4 in the NCAA and 0-1 in the NIT while the AAC is 1-0 so far in the NCAA and 1-0 in the NIT.
