Less than 48 hours before the rematch happens. On the Women's side the Lady Tigers hope to keep pace in the top 3 standings with a win over the Lady Panthers.

Keys to victory: limit turnovers to less than 10; make shots, successful 3-point shots; attack the boards; and get to the foul line.

Not sure if the rumor is true that Gaati is injured and will not be able to play but PV still has a talented bunch without her. The Lady Tigers have been battled tested and pulling out wins in close contests so they are believing in themselves.

On the Men's side the Tigers want to stay close to JSU and a win agains PV is crucial as JSU should have no problem against the lowly Braves of Alcorn.

Keys to victory: come out strong to take the expected sold-out crowd out of the game early; get to the foul line and make them; limit turnovers; and stay out of foul trouble.

The babydome should be rocking as the Tigers look to avenge an earlier 65-60loss during winter break at the spacious 8,100 seat HP&E Builing before over
5,000 fans. No doubt the Tiger Nation will be in full force routing for

Texas
Southern
Unstoppable

GO TIGERS!
 



Well ours womens team is a M.A.S.H unit with all the injuries.

for the womens game.
 
atmosphere will be turned up a notch

Get here by 4 (doors open) and you'll be fine...

warning message....The dome will fill with PV folks just in the area...come late if you want..

Lil' Keke is suppsoed to perform sometime
 
predictions from what I saw last week...

women... with Gaati, Im going with Texas So..... they impressed with (the short guard made plays)...they look like a bunch of boys on the court. Pvs guard play is inconsistant... (the white girl looked like she was intimidated playing in front of "us folks".

mens... PV as long as #33 stays out of foul trouble.

The womens team will be alright, they will have to depend on the bench. I'm sure they had enough time to prepare for this game with Gatti out. This was not the case last week, which was they lost to AAMU.

I think the white girl is more intimidated by Cooper, when she gets in her stuff about the game. I think this takes her out of her game sometimes.
 
We beat TSU by 25 last time...when Gatti got hurt the whole mood changed...the ship was right for State...

our top guard off the bench starts for any other school in the SWAC

Is it safe to say Rimm owns Harvey?

Own - no. Only 4 match-ups and Rimm is 4-0 - yes.

You have to remember that this is only his 2nd year as a head coach and what position TSU was prior to his arrival. He has done a miraculous job in his second year.

Congrats to the Panthers. You have been the better teams (womens and mens) for the last two years.
 
wait...PV was in way worse shape than TSU ever has been in term of scholarships, assistants, etc. before Rimm got there and when he first got there..

TSU was decent enough for Moreland out of retirement to get back into the SWAC Tournament and Harvey did it also in his first year...PV only went to the tourney once since 2005 before 2009 and the 05 appearance was because TSU was disqualified the last week of the season

Look at what Harvey has now in terms of resources (salaries, coaches, facilities, etc.) which still is better than PV and every mid-major in America.....the situation has improved drastically by far for PV but just imagine what Rimm could do with Harvey's staff.....

did you notice the TSU players sitting on the floor because they have max coaches

outside of that...that was the type of crowd I expected tonight.....jam-packed...turned away 1,000 people.....I think that contributed to TSU's women losing the game as they had a big lead and the crowd showed up after halftime and things changed drastically..on the men's side....was the rim small for the Tigers? shooting....

I've been to UH, Rice games, etc....that atmosphere right there blows away alot major conferences....you thrown down a dunk before 5,000 in the Baby Dome with DJ Mr. Rogers and a 16-1 female to male ratio.....priceless

if you had the right recruit in there tonight...you will sign one at least

In worse shape? I don't think so; certainly PV has had a rocky road from which to climb. The fact of the matter is the basketball program at Texas Southern was reduced from a program to just a team playing basketball. Remove the memory switch from selective mode and recall the horrendous A.D. we had just two years ago, and his movements with respect to the basketball program. He fired a Coach Ronnie Courtney during the summer, and named no one interim to even contact the kids that were returning or the kids that were recruited by Courtney. The kids were left in limbo until days before the fall semester. I recall a story where one of the recruits was at home constantly trying to get answers and constantly calling the A.D., but never got a returned phone call. As the semester started no coach had been named, nor was there an interim in place. The kids were literally left without any coaching staff until a week or so before Midnight Madness. That is when Coach Moreland stepped in at the last minute, after some alums successfully aborted an attempt by the A.D. to hire a loser coach named Paul Graham at the last minute. Coach Moreland did a yeoman's job with what he had to work with. T. Harvey stepped into a bad situation from the very start, but the truth is given the circumstances he stepped into he is doing a good job. Band fan what you were feebling describing is a situation that will bear future results and not immediate ones. The renovations to Texas Southern's basketball facility were just completed weeks ago. Three of the coaches on Harvey's staff were not on the staff last year, and as you know all to well Charles McClleland is just getting started. What can be said for certain though, is that T. Harvey has been given all the resources to run a good viable program and that their will be excuses to lean on for not winning consistently by the third year of contract. With all that said, I know you believe your job on this board is to piss people off, but please dispense with the games.

dude...trust me..PV was in worse shape than TSU...way worse shape....ask anyone who had suffer with that

Rimm was the 4th coach in five years, we did not offer full rides like people thought, (began offering more aid in 2003) recruiting suffered horribly due to personnel changes of 7 players a year, we had walk-on guards as our starters...we only had 1 full-time assistant until 2008 while TSU always had 3....Rimm got his head beat in for 2 years while Harvey had enough to get to the tournament along with Moreland.

Harvey dumped his staff from last year...that was his fault...he can do that....

Also...I grew up more on TSU than PV so I've seen the highs and lows of both...trust me...TSU has always been ahead of the basketball curve compared to PV...that 1998 NCAA bid was a fluke as TSU blew a 20-point lead...in 2003, we won because we had a good x and o's coach and some senior talent who could play...that was our highlights since the 60s while yall had NCAA bids, NBA talent, brand new arena, etc.

We finally have a coach who knows what to do to be successful in the SWAC and we have the things in place now to be successful....he rolled his sleeves and got dirty...

we basically fielded an intramural program then.....you just don't know
