  1. Past hour

  2. That would be marvelous - good player, great leader.
  3. I'm thinking about someone this size, Dave:
  4. Thanks Hank! Dang, more than I thought, and there are some (Spetic, for example, gimme my solid kicker so I don't have to worry about it) that I really want back.
  5. Today

  6. If Biles doesn't go pro, something horrible has happened.
  7. Wait Cryer could come back?
  8. We need to bring in at least 4 OL starters We don’t have ANY above average players coming back next year None. Nada. Zip.
  9. Hah! Seppo is what Aussies call Americans. Seppo = Septic Tank = Yank. Don't look for too much logic.
  10. That is ALWAYS a thing. It’s why most of the time people like to kick onside kicks to your own sideline and throw sideline passes your own way. Way different with replay but that’s how it used to be
  11. Love that they explained how it was definitely a fumble VERY clearly and fanbases from all other 15 SEC schools (with some Tech and Baylor fans sprinkled in for good measure) are still whining, crying, and gnashing their teeth
  12. How about our Aussie? She stepped up big time.
  13. Thank goodness. Thanks Hank.
  14. Just to be clear, I didn't verify it or anything. But that's the second reference to it I've seen. Both supplied by Gerry.
  15. Do you guys not promote your own content on here? Not trying to be a jerk - not this time at least. I sincerely don't know how it works. Jeff and Gerry do my favorite basketball interviews of anyone ever that cover Texas basketball. Gerry has always been one of my favorites going back almost 30 years, but Jeff brings plenty to the table himself. Here they are interviewing Austin Goosby after the 3-0 start as we head into the Baylor game on Sunday:
  16. Wow…and thanks for the info! That is an insane stat…
  17. As opposed to what? What college basketball used to be? College basketball has been the slimiest college sport for the last 30 years. Ever since Michael Jordan demonstrated the endorsement of one person could be worth billions to shoe companies, and they spent the next several decades cultivating relationships with promising players, As opposed to football? Same kinds of things are going on there. Frankly, we see it in other sports where donors are willing to contribute major dollars to help build a team. Women's basketball, softball, baseball, and volleyball all have plenty of 6 digit earners on teams. And it's only going to grow. I was never a supporter of allowing NIL in the first place. I know it was unfair to student athletes, but there was never going to be a realistic way of enforcing it to where it wasn't going to be pay for play. Well, the Supreme Court decided that issue. So now we either play by the rules as they're written by the courts, or we become like Stanford that is finding it harder and harder to be relevant in any of those sports when they used to be highly competitive in all of them. I'm not trying to talk you into buying back your Germania club basketball tickets. I don't care if you ever go to a game or watch a game ever again. But we finally have a coach where the players on the roster are actually going to get better, both over the course of the year and as they move through the program. It's been a long time since we could say that. Even Barnes wasn't as good as Miller at developing players on the offensive end and for the NBA. Decrying this Texas program as a group of mercenaries is both a naive point of view regarding the cesspool college basketball has always been, as well as a bit of a shame since we finally have a head coach whose teams are going to embody the hustle, team work, team first attitude - and get better over the course of the year while doing it - that we've been missing for a long time.
  18. Love it. Close calls or wrong calls go against us. Crickets. IN our favor. Congressional hearings, Special prosecutor appointed and national talking heads go nuts.
  19. Neither of you are subscribers. This is likely subscriber only content.
  20. Read elsewhere she was in concussion protocol and that is why she was not allowed to return.
  21. In what way did the Big 12 push out Texas and OU? There wasn't going to be anything to keep them. The only thing that could have kept Texas in the Big 12 were legitimate threats to expand the PUF to other state school systems like Texas Tech, Texas State, and UH. Which was successfully used as a threat against Texas and A&M to force them to take Tech and Baylor with them to the Big 12 in the first place. But Chairman of the BOR, Kevin Eltife, a former state senator, navigated around that possibility by negotiating in secret with the SEC. By the time the news got out - broken by an A&M friendly reporter at the Chronicle when the Aggies finally discovered the negotiations had been happening behind their back - it was too late. The state legislature wasn't in session, and Texas ex governor Abbot, who colluded with Eltife, wasn't about to call for a special session. But there was literally nothing the Big 12 could do. At the end of the day there weren't enough television sets, and the athletic departments were too small and underfunded. Similar to what happened to the SWC.
  22. Hence, why I let go of my Germania club basketball season tickets last year. And I wasn't the only one. Sad part was seeing Jordan Pope, Weaver and other former Texas bball players on our roster last year leaving one of our football home games earlier this season. Was giving Pope a little more ribbing for going to aggy, but you could just tell they never really wanted to leave. Bball in college is done imo. Mercenary programs now.
  23. Whew. That would be catastrophic to lose her to a serious injury.
  24. I’m wondering if Cody boy is just trolling and trying to ruffle Texas fans up.
  25. Does that include players in their 5th year? šŸ˜‚
