He kind of hip-checked the Duquesne guy. He was trying to establish position and it was just an awkward timing thing and I have no idea why it was a flagrant instead of a common foul. It seems like Tre gets at least 2 or 3 hot-garbage fouls called against him every game. There is no doubt the coaches are telling him to be extremely calculated in how he plays on D - it is much more important that he plays 30+ minutes than to aggressively challenge every shot at the rim.

BYU 105-96 in 2013 at the Mass Mutual Center. Chaz had an all world day, something like 30 points and 15 assists.

As for tomorrow's game, this from Walfish:

Quick basketball notes from today's practice: McCall said he knows Pierre, Diallo and T. Mitchell will start tomorrow for #UMass, but said he needs to figure out if it's best to go with his best offensive or defensive lineup against Duquesne.
Who would be your other 2 starters?
Watching that game was a weird feeling, because the two big things I had been begging for UMass to do was start Kolton & Preston (plus Tre, Carl, Samba) and hedge on PnR defense... and they did both of them in the game and they both worked great.
