Gerry I know something that even u don’t know👀

If we always planned for Spears to be the “missing” third big on this roster and this actually comes to fruition, then Sean Miller is a total witch. This would be beyond incredible.

Fong should either admit Elko is the source or that he just read it on OTF

If loving you is fong , I don’t wanna be right

He has been fong’d per On3

Madison Booker is likely a top three draft pick in 2027. However, she would be very welcomed to take that 5th year. How will this rule affect recruiting in all sports? I see it as a welcome conundrum.

And?

Just to add ... Texas already has the most talented team in program history right now. Texas has never had 5 starters that are future NBA draft picks. And a top 8 that will play pro ball on some level long term. That's where the current roster is at.

Sign Marcus Spears in 2026 class and this is the most talented team in the history of Texas basketball.

He'd be the #3 big, with the ability to play with either Punch or Vokietaitis. He'd be the missing piece to the roster, and 3rd high quality big.

@Gerry Hamilton where would spears hypothetically slide in our team, does he have a shot of starting or at least get starter level minutes off the bench

Man, I can’t wait for the closed door scrimmage where we beat someone like Arizona State by 30+ points. That’s going to hit like crack.

Don’t want to count our chickens before they hatch, but this offseason could really give Texas Cam Coleman in January, Isa Torres in June, and possibly Marcus Spears Jr. with some post 4th of July fireworks. That’s amazing.

Heard this too that texas is leading thats impressive

Trilly Donovan on his discord has basically confirmed that his reclassification is in the works and Texas is a leader. I have no idea how he fits into this roster.

Would love this move then if it came to fruition. A year to learn, play, and develop. Then takeover on his draft year.

Why I mentioned inside 15-feet for Peat. But Peat did have a higher 3% on limited attempts last season. Key with Punch, I expect him to make a jump to 30%'ish from 3 this year, and hopefully ascend 3-5% from the FT line. Texas is working with him on this right now and this summer. Getting the guide hand positioned/usage more consistent.

Awesome and looking forward to it

Correct. Marcus Spears Jr. is NBA draft eligible in 2028.

It looks like since Spears was born in 2009 even if he reclassified he would not be eligible for 27 draft.

Punch is a better shooter than Peat which isn't saying much.

Go gettem Schloss

Would be insane if Sean Miller, Chris Ogden, CDC, etc. pulled this off. I would be speechless. Would be the most shocking move of the offseason not just for Texas basketball, but Texas athletics period. Just sounds too good to be true, but hopefully it is true.
