Miller said Swain has embodied everything a coach could want in a player as he's worked to develop his body, mind and game.

Miller points out that Swain is a year younger than everyone else in his class. That's part of why he's such an intriguing draft prospect.

"Dailyn is a throwback story, in every sense of the way," Miller said, referring to the fact that they recruited him early in high school and still have him. "You could always see his talent."

Miller knows it's tough to make it to a 6 p.m. tip in Austin, but he's asking the fans to be in their seats as early as possible tomorrow.

"We know we have our hands full tomorrow," Miller said. "We have to be at our very, very best."

Miller said there's a lot to learn about how Florida has assembled and developed a roster in the transfer portal/NIL era.

"Any time you host the national champion from a year ago," Sean Miller said of facing Florida, it has a special meaning.

Tankathon's latest mock draft, which was updated on Sunday, had Swain going to the Dallas Mavericks with the last pick of the first round, No. 30 overall. The most recent NBADraft.net mock for 2026, last updated on Feb. 11, had Swain going to the Sacramento Kings with the first pick of the second round, No. 31 overall.

Here's the release from UT on Kavan's latest national honor: No. 3 Texas Softball (14-1) junior RHP Teagan Kavan was named D1Softball’s National Pitcher of the Week for the third time of her career, the publication announced Tuesday morning.

Texas cruised to its first win of the DeMarini Invitational on Feb. 20 behind Kavan’s arm, taking down No. 16 Arizona, 12-2. Kavan went the distance and tossed a three-hit, 10-strikeout gem in the win against the Wildcats, marking her second-consecutive double-digit strikeout outing. Kavan did not allow an earned run and did not give up an extra-base hit across seven innings vs. Arizona. Kavan issued four walks and had four 1-2-3 frames.

A few notes from the program ahead of the Florida game: — SUCCESS IN THE MOOD AGAINST THE BEST The Longhorns are 5-4 all-time against AP Top 10 foes (1-0 this year) and 12-6 against AP Top 25 opponents (2-0 this season) in Moody Center. Texas has won its last three games overall this year against AP-ranked opponents (at No. 13 Alabama, vs. No. 10 Vanderbilt, vs. No. 21 Georgia). — DAILYN DOING IT ALL Per ESPN Research, junior G/F Dailyn Swain is one of TWO players in Major Conferences to lead his team in FIVE major statistical categories, joining Caleb Wilson (North Carolina). Swain, who needs just 13 points to reach the 1,000-point mark for his collegiate career, leads the Longhorns in scoring, rebounding, assists, steals AND minutes. — MATAS IMPROVING BY THE DAY Sophomore C Matas Vokietaitis is averaging 17.1 ppg and 7.9 rpg in 28.4 mpg, while hitting 65.3 percent (62-95) from the floor and 74.4 percent (64-86) from the free-throw line over his last 11 games. He has reached double figures in scoring in all 11 contests, including three 20-point efforts.

We're scheduled to get the press conference going via Zoom at 11:30.

Coming off a 91-80 road loss to Georgia on Saturday, Texas returns to action against No. 7 Florida at Moody Center on Wednesday (6 p.m., ESPN2). Sean Miller is holding a media availability today to discuss the loss to the Bulldogs, tomorrow’s game against the Gators and the state of affairs as the Longhorns look to improve their standing for an at-large bid in the NCAA Tournament. As of Monday, Texas (17-10, 8-6 SEC) remained on the right side of the bubble, with the Longhorns one of 11 SEC clubs projected to be in the field of 68, according to ESPN's Joe Lunardi. While the loss to Georgia snapped a five-game winning streak, Texas will attempt to get back on track against arguably its toughest stretch of games this season. After facing Florida (21-6, 12-2), the Longhorns travel to Texas A&M (19-8, 9-5) on Saturday (3 p.m., ESPN2), looking to avoid a season sweep at the hands of the Aggies, who won a 74-70 decision in Austin on Jan. 17. The Longhorns will then take on No. 20 Arkansas (20-7, 10-4) in Fayetteville on Wednesday, March 4, before wrapping up the regular season schedule at home against Oklahoma (13-14, 3-11) on Saturday, March 7.

The young man certainly looks the part.

Interesting quotes about Cam “It felt like he was never coming here. I wasn’t really worried about him because it almost felt like a waste of time. Ultimately, he wanted to play where there was a more established quarterback situation.” . “It didn’t really get that crazy; he was going to Texas the whole time,” they said. “I think he was using us to get the price up at UT, which I’m fine with.” .

Finally got a look at new Texas right tackle Melvin Siani in winter conditioning workouts.

Poor delusional soul...🤣😂 Are the Texas Longhorns afraid to play the Notre Dame Fighting Irish?

Whoa - that looks awesome.
