Houston

Looking strong this week with some big wins (be it over bleh teams but the margins were absurd) |

Lost by single digits at Mackey without Keegan Murray is pretty impressive and shows Iowa might be better than we thought |

Considered St. Bonaventure, Providence, St. Mary's, and Loyola. Conference play will seperate |
