So did UConn, so did Florida, so did St. John's, so did Ole Miss, so did Illinois, so did UCLA
Honestly, probably better for you to not watch or care. It doesn't feel healthy for you to watch program builds in hoops.
It's not about what you have, it's about where the NIL average spend has gone in hoops.
Kentucky, Duke, Louisville and some others are about twice as much as Texas right now. Others are 60-70% more than Texas.
That's not an excuse for Texas players fouling on three freaking 3-pointers tonight too, however. Dumb plays that cost games.
Now that's a different discussion ...
I'll never forget there were about 2,500 fans in the Erwin Center for Kevin Durant's first game at Texas.
KD played 15+ games before many Texas fans realized there was a future all-time great wearing the uniform.
Florida fans wanted Todd Golden fired after year one
UConn fans wanted Danny Hurley fired after year one and two
St. John's fans wondered if Rick Pitino was too old after year one
Alabama fans wondered if Nate Oats style of play would translate to high-major ball after year one
lmao
Sean Miller will win at Texas.
Here's a list of coaches that didn't make the NCAA Tournament in year one in the portal era...
Todd Golden at Florida, Danny Hurley at UConn, Nate Oats at Alabama, Rick Pitino at St. John's, Chris Beard at Ole Miss, Mick Cronin at UCLA, the angry guy at Illinois, etc..
But he's an SEC level player. To say he's not, is just wrong.
All I'm saying is that people want to say a guy isn't an SEC level player ... he's literally got about 1,000 points, had huge games in the SEC and has been recruited by multiple SEC schools twice. Doesn't mean he's great, but he's an SEC level player
Texas will be just fine under Miller as he builds the program in the future
Tonight, you absolutely can’t commit late clock defensive fouls on 3-point attempts. Deserve to lose. Bottom line
