If I could bottle up Chendall Weaver's energy, all out effort, competitive drive, etc... and put it in every heart and mind of every athlete ...Texas would very rarely lose a game in any sport. He's got the same Sir'Jabari Rice and Roschon Johnson make up, with a different skill set.

Brock Cunningham .. tip of the hat. That guy is an ultimate competitor. The play was worthy of the result, but college teams absolutely need a player with what he brings to toughness/leadership and impact winning.

What does Texas have to do to make the NCAA Tournament? The Texas Longhorns once again ripped out the hearts of a moblike Texas Tech fan base Tuesday night. The Longhorns responded from one rough day at Kansas with an 81-69 win at Texas Tech Tuesday night in a game that wasn't as close as the final score indicated. Texas (18-10, 7-8) has a strong NCAA Resume currently, and is firmly in the Big Dance after Tuesday night. OnTexasFootball takes a look ahead, and the scenarios for Texas to continue to be comfortably in the tourney. Texas’ Remaining Regular Season Schedule 3/2 Oklahoma State 3/4 @ No. 12 Baylor 3/9 No. 25 Oklahoma NCAA Men’s Basketball NET Rankings (Feb. 28) Texas is No. 33 in NCAA NET after the win at Texas Tech. The Horns moved up seven spots from No. 40. The Longhorns are 5-7 in Quad 1 games, 2-2 vs. Quad 2, 2-1 vs. Quad 3 and 9-0 vs. Quad 4. Quad 1 games remaining for the Longhorns: No. 14 @ Baylor Quad 2 game remaining: No. 40 Oklahoma Quad 3 games remaining: No. 113 Oklahoma State T-Rank Texas is No. 23 in Bart Torvik’s rankings after Tuesday night. 2024 Pomeroy College Basketball Ratings Texas checks in at No. 28 after the win at Texas Tech. What it means for Texas The Longhorns are comfortably in the NCAA Tournament after Tuesday nights win. The resume continues to be aided by five Quad 1 wins and four Big 12 road wins. Only 14 teams in all of college basketball have more Quad 1 wins than Texas, and one of those is not in a Power 5 conference. While Strength of Schedule as a whole may not carry as much weight as it used to, the Longhorns have played a top 25 ranked schedule and will likely end up with a scheduled ranked in the 17-20 area. Texas' Big 12 schedule will carry a lot of weight when it comes to getting in the tournament, and seeding. Most years, a sub .500 conference record would not get you into the Field of 68. With the monster level Big 12 Conference in 2023-24, Texas would get in at 8-10. There currently nine Big 12 teams projected to get in the Big Dance. Texas and seeding: Scenario 1: 20-11, 9-9 is likely a 7 seed headed into Big 12 Tournament Scenario 2: 19-12, 8-10 would likely be a 8-9 seed headed into Big 12 Tournament Scenario 3: 18-13, 7-11 would send the Horns to the NIT without a run in the Big 12 Tournament. That would mean an 0-3 finish to the regular season, which is highly unlikely. Right now, I do not see a scenario where Texas is 21-10 and 10-8 to finish the regular season. That would mean winning the last four games (Texas Tech starting the streak), including at Baylor on Monday. Texas has not shown that consistent type of stretch this season over talent neutralized stretches. The Longhorns haven't won three Big 12 games in a row this season. View full news

Four-star DB locks in Texas official visit Hightower (Texas) High defensive back Kade Phillips has locked in an official visit to Texas. The 6-1.5, 180 pound versatile defensive back with an 80 inch wingspan and 10 inch hands told OnTexasFootball he will make an official visit to Texas June 21-23. Phillips was offered by safeties coach and area recruiter Blake Gideon February 17. "The Texas offer meant a lot to me," Phillips told OnTexasFootball last week at Hightower High. "Texas is a big school, big culture and it meant a lot. It felt great. Coach Gideon came to see me multiple times. He came to track practice, came by the field house multiple times just to talk. Texas is going to be up there. Up there." Phillips attended Texas Junior day January 20. He has been on campus multiple times in the last year, including a game visit in 2023. Texas A&M and LSU remain the competition Phillips is the younger brother of former Texas A&M linebacker signee Kenneth Phillips, who had his career cut short after a devastating knee injury his senior season. He remains a student at Texas A&M. Kade Phillips was back on campus in College Station January 27 for Junior Day. "Coach (Mike) Elko just wants everybody to be part of the recruitment. Not just your position coach, but all of the coaches. He wants it to be one big family. They offered me at corner, but like my versatility. Wherever the team needs me is what they said." Phillips will make his first ever trip to LSU this spring. It's a visit that will be very key in the recruitment. "I'm in contact with Coach (Corey) Raymond every day. He's just checking in on me, seeing how I'm doing. I just know it's LSU. Big facility, big program. It will be a big visit fore me when I go down there." Arkansas, Oregon, Baylor and Kansas as schools also making runs right now. Phillips plans to commit prior to his senior season after June official visits. View full news

Massive failure on all accounts IMO

This is pretty funny!

Spoke with Isaiah Gibson a few mins ago. Texas will likely get him on campus this spring

He definitely has that level of ability should he maximize

Don’t believe that will happen.
