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:

Yeah, we probably should have

    I went to a donor practice today - a few observations: 1) David Punch appears to have much more range than I thought he had - he had a great looking shot and was hitting 3’s/long jumpers. I compl

    At this point, I think the solution is pretty simple: you need to find a Kobe Bryant message board. Find a place where the entire purpose is discussing Kobe, ranking Kobe, reliving 1996, debating

    With Spears Jr. ... he is making a fair # in year one from what I hear. This wasn't a bargain recruitment for Texas. That was Austin Goosby who took half of what BYU was offering to be at Texas. But t

Avila leaving St. Louis for TCU. Hahaha.

At least it wasn't during half time of a game between the two. That's what I'm waiting on.

Texas A&M 88, OkState 69

Watched some of that ... A&M is going to have a rebounding issues in SEC play. They have to shoot the three well in SEC play, and they did vs OkState

Their schedule too... the two teams they play twice Vanderbilt, LSU and Texas.

Their non-con is easy breeze though .. could go undefeated, or drop 1-2 at most.

I think it is the influx of European players with professional experience that has made all of the top 30+ teams look like they could win any particular game. If the season comes down to coaching, rather than roster, Texas is in decent shape. But so are Michigan St., Gonzaga, KU, CT, and St. John's, among others.

Yep. And health later in the season .. has really impacted recent tournaments now that there is parity

There are 20'ish teams that are real contenders this year

2026 Spurs losing to the Nicks be like 2017 Warriors losing to the Nets. Couldn't happen because no one could choke like Wemby and Johnson in the history of the NBA.

Wrong thread haha

More wrong. Watching Rodney Dangerfield on Carson. Goober youngsters in the comments keep asking about Dr. Vinny Boombatz. There is no Dr. Vinny Boombatz you goobers. It's a joke. I understood that at five. What's with these people?

Luck can play a factor too. It’s just one bad bounce of the ball in the tournament.

What is Connecticut's ceiling without Nik Khamenia this season?

He's expected back, but it changes the way they play. They had planned to go from Karaban to Khameniaban .. they don't have thatt play to replace that spot.

What will be interesting is their non-con now ... it's was brutal. Have Ohio State, at Arizona, Duke, Illinois, Kansas and Virginia still remaining

How will the committee treat them come selection Sunday, should he come back the last portion of Big East play? Not that they are in danger of not making a 76 team field, but from, a seeding standpoint ... because Texas without Mikey Lewis (and a couple of others) could have a beef if it's beneficial to UConn
