No. 7 Texas vs. No. 2 Tennessee in Round of 32
Still too soon. That loss hurt. I really thought that team had an elite 8 run in them.

@Gerry Hamilton how strong is Texas NIL wise in hoops? Can they compete NIL wise with the upper portal guys? I ask because Texas has the other stuff to sell. Success, arena, coach/staff in place zero hot seat etc.

Survive and advance: Texas onto the Round of 32
Who does Tennessee compare to that we have played this season. Barnes had some really good teams that underachieved in March. Hopefully it happens again. Texas could have beaten Houston. Hung tough with UConn without Disu, If not for the rough start could have beat Iowa St. Texas did beat Baylor. Texas has warts and they are visible. However, they have moments were they can compete with some of the best teams.

NCAA Tournament thread: Texas vs. Colorado State
There was a time I didn’t think Texas would even make the tourney. Survive and advance…house money the rest of the way.

Texas Women’s Basketball a 1 seed
Really happy for Coach Schaefer and the ladies! Well deserved and resilient after losing Rori.

Texas the No. 7 seed in the Midwest Region
Gerry!! We got our 7/10 seed to avoid the one seed round two. Big 12 got crazy respect this year.

Hard pass on this one.

Texas seed & NCAA Tournament Thread
A&M with a 9 in Lunardi’s that’s something to watch. That’s interesting with a NET in rhe 40s only one spot ahead of OU. I could see a UT/ATM 8/9 game by the committee. I thought A&M was a 10/11 seed. Palm has Iowa St with a 1 over UNC. I don’t want A&M in an 8/9 game. That would be salt in the wound although a fitting end to this season to finish with another embarrassment.

Texas baseball falls again to Washington
Next year is a big year for RT. He better get his recruiting class to campus and hit the portal. However, hoops isn’t as tough in the SEC. It will be good but not the Big 12. Total opposite in baseball. Texas would be at best the 8th best team. That should never happen to Texas baseball.

Houston is getting obliterated by Iowa St. Down by 30 in a home game for ISU.

Texas baseball falls again to Washington
Texas will lose the home series against the now 6-7-1 Huskies with the #280 hitting team out of 295 in the country. Texas is 0-5 against P5 teams outside the Big 12. Texas has losses against SEC teams LSU, Vandy and A$M. This doesn’t include Tennessee, Ole Miss, Florida, Miss St, and Arkansas. At this point I don’t care what we do the rest of the Big 12 season because it’s a trash league to where we are going. The only team that “appears” to be good is TCU. Maybe Oklahoma St proves to be decent. Texas Tech shouldn’t be ranked. Beaten no one and has 8 wins against Texas Southern, Gardner Webb and New Mexico St. Next year is going to bring a very rude awakening. I have rarely if ever said this but CDC will have a decision on his hands.

Position Battles Heading into Spring Camp
Safety has become a loaded position. Im a Neto guy that’s hoping he takes the next step. Hutson is awfully good when healthy. We need one of Roberson, Mack or Black to step up similarly to what Muhammad did last year at corner.

Five recruitments with intrigue (Saturday 10:27 a.m. CST)
I’d trade him out for Deuce Williams. I bet that’s what the Texas coaches are thinking especially Nanson who didn’t offer him. This is a Johnny Nanson special and one of the reasons he was brought in. Similar builds, measurable’s but not tape.

Five recruitments with intrigue (Saturday 10:27 a.m. CST)
What’s intriguing about him is how raw he is. His footwork and route running can improve so much just off watching some clips. That can be coached. His high pointing the football, ball skills and COD cannot. That’s a God given blessing. Imagjne a field with Ffrench, Moore, Cook and Wingo.

If Signing Day were today (Thursday 3:39 p.m. CST)
I like the maybe section lol. I just don’t understand Harris at WR. At best he is #7 on my board. Moore, Ffrench, Miss kid, Lockett, Johnson, Marsh are all ahead of him in my eyes.

How good is Pryor? I’ll be honest I know nothing about his game. I know he got here early and he has the length you want.

Texas seed & NCAA Tournament Thread
I want a 10 seed but we don’t deserve that break. The die has been cast for this team. We deserve an 8 or 9 to get set up for a real butt kicking in the 2nd round if we even get that far to be honest. Too inconsistent and terrible losses are littered across the schedule.

College Basketball Transfer Portal Thread
What are your thoughts on Hunter and Mitchell? I personally think they should move on. I don’t see us getting anyone in the portal that will be anywhere near high end with these two still on campus. I hope Johnson sees the big picture. He’s already bounced from KU so this would be his 3rd program in less than 2 years.

College Basketball Transfer Portal Thread
Texas HAS to get Scott and Johnson to campus. That’s step 1. Texas has to strike gold in the portal. I don’t know who would comeback at this point. Abmas, Disu, Cunningham, Horton and Hunter are gone. I am fairly certain Mitchell will follow. Does Chris Johnson stay? The only two I feel comfortable staying is Weaver and Shedrick.

March Madness Report: Texas a No. 7 or No. 8 seed in the Big Dance?
9 seed but I wish they would really “punish”’ Texas for the underachieving loss with a 10 seed.

Big 12 Tournament: No. 7 Texas vs. No. 10 Kansas State
You can’t shoot 4-23 for 17 percent and expect to win. You can blame officials all you want but they don’t shoot the basketball in games. Our shooting absolutely sucked and it’s why we’re packing our bags heading home. Texas is wildly inconsistent. This season has met the bare minimum of expectations making the tournament but that’s it.

Big 12 Tournament: No. 7 Texas vs. No. 10 Kansas State
I don’t get why Texas isn’t a 7 when just about every metric has Texas inside the top 25. Heck they are a borderline 6 by that measure. I don’t get it but yeah we need to get a 7 seed. That would give Texas a chance to reach the sweet 16. Texas isn’t beating a 1 seed in the 2nd round. Texas has beaten KStete and didn’t play well. They could have beaten Iowa St if not for an atrocious 1st half.
