Hoops: Texas at Oklahoma Game Thread


Gerry Hamilton

Recommended Posts

We lost back to back close games at home against great teams.

This team is responding by coming out and kicking ass on the road.

I think these guys believe in themselves.

I think they see it as them are up against the world, including a big percentage of the Texas fan base that hopes they don't win so we have an excuse to get rid of the coach.

I think these guys are going to fight to the end of the year.

Up 16.  I love it.

I do not understand the shade thrown on RT.

I do.  I don't agree with it, but I understand it.  Terry will never get enough credit for getting to the Elite Eight with a team that his predecessor built but couldn't get to the second weekend.

People have a nutty notion that we could have simply money whipped a Hall of Fame Coach to come here and do better than whatever it is we have seen. 

Few, Izzo, Self, and Wright were never going to come here, no matter how much money we could have tossed at them.  Calipari would have been an 8 figure a year mistake.

I hope this team goes on to a good finish and Terry continues.  If it doesn't, and we change coaches, then I'll thank him for what he did for us.

But if we replace Terry, we won't hire a guy in his late 50s or 60s who already have Hall of Fame pedigree.  We will hire a younger guy with credentials who can be a generational coach.
