  1. Slorch - No, that’s not what I’m saying. Obviously you need to fill out rosters by any means possible. High profile, national recruitments can be draining on a staff and often turn up empty. That’s more of what I’m talking about, he will be involved in more of those now and you have to balance it. Don’t miss on capable talent in your backyard.
  2. That’s another great point, look at the difference in organization already. Beard has a plan, he was ready for this job. I can’t wait to go to a game
  3. Yep. Beard said this is about players and he wasn’t kidding. What I hope he can avoid is falling in love with just how far that Texas name can reach. There is talent right here in state, clean it up
  4. Gents, every assistant is “dirty”. Play the game or don’t play. Nobody really ever thought Texas was “clean” in any sport did they?
  5. Jordan hit 16 of 18 greens today. For the most part, his game off the tee was solid. I think Rose comes back to the pack.
  6. Well he’s right, they would’ve been looking for jobs next year. I don’t see that as a knock, it’s called being smart. They’ll do very well here
  7. No, he’s an idiot. Standing there seeing how hard he can swing serves zero purpose and will injure him sooner than later.
  8. They actually are leagues better. The head coach is too. Add in his player development guy and this is one of the best staffs in college basketball, especially with the addition of Howard. That means Ogden or Terry will be in some kind of analyst/basketball ops position, waiting in the wings when Maligi or Howard get a head coaching job. This is a very well connected staff. Shaka had Lucas with ties in the area but he had zero coaching chops. To be honest, the initial staffs shouldn’t be compared. Beard’s wins in every way.
  9. He’s such an idiot
  10. It was hilarious way back on other boards watching our fans brag about Barnes handling of Drew’s dirty recruiting tactics. “He knows there’s a place he can’t go with me” was Barnes’ famous quote.....apparently that place is to a title.
  11. This will be a firm, fast masters. It’s a second shot golf course and JT is a stud iron player. But.....Spieth has the imagination and short game edge.
  12. I have a hard time seeing Andrew wanting to play Beard’s style. I liked Ellis the best of the recruits but it was going to take him a couple years. We need transfers badly.
  13. I said during Pebble he was trending, this could be a really fun year. Spieth with confidence heading to Augusta? Cant wait
  14. Azinger is the worst about this.
  15. SG approach is much more critical to me than his putter. This is a stat JT has owned the last few years. Currently 43rd on tour. 97th last year and in the 140s the year prior. If he can get it in the right spots at Augusta, he’s going to be there on Sunday.
  16. I thought of Springmann as more of the rainmaker. He was the key to Durant, Augustin, and Hamilton. Pretty sure he was the guy on Damion James, he kind of fell in our lap though. Durant is pushing for him for obvious reasons, they are close. He kind of fell off the grid although he’s getting attention again after the ORU sweet 16 run and yet another solid recruit under his belt with Max Abmas.
  17. Ulric definitely has connections. I’m meh on Ogden and Terry. There’s certainly better options but fuck it, let’s roll.
  18. I get that Ogden is his friend and that’s how coaching hires work. I respect Gerry Hamilton’s opinion on basketball topics......but that’s an average hire for me.
  19. Beard is by far the best resume we’ve ever hired in the sport.
  20. I said I believe the deal was basically done on Saturday. Unless Tech came forward with something Texas didn’t want to match.... My personal thought is can Texas afford not to match? This is a unique opportunity with the arena opening soon.
  21. lol that’s a big whiff. These are day one type questions, not a week later. He may very well stay at Tech but these aren’t the last minute details needing to be ironed out.
  22. Haha it is in west Texas but no, this is real info
  23. I hate losing to these mouth breathers
  24. Mine is pretty close to the situation, as of Saturday it was basically done. But until an announcement is made that means Jack shit. That’s a lot of time to get your best offer together that perhaps Texas wouldn’t match.
  25. Agreed, not a lot of pep in our step
