You can be upset with the result, but you have to admire the fight. Especially after hearing Jeff Scott’s postgame comments.
USF was one injury/positive covid test away from having to cancel the game. You start the game undermanned at some key positions. Then Houston takes advantage of those missing players and jumps out to a huge lead. Many teams would have packed it in (Looking at you Michigan), but the Bulls kept fighting.
Fighting doesn’t equal winning. Not always. Not in the short term. However, it is a sign of an improving culture. It is a sign good coaching.
