Texas Recruiting Notes 2025: Duck Around and Find Out
This is about the level of program he should be at right now. Hope the kid gets his weight under control.

2024 NCAA Tournament - Second Round Games - Saturday/Sunday
There hasn’t been a single upset in the second round so far has there? Gonzaga was favored.

Rodney Terry has been fired
Well, I don’t think RT’s leash is 6 more years, but it’s not 1 more year either. So the whole discussion of his firing as if it’s coming any time soon is dumb.

Barnes won 2 tournament games his last 6 years here.

Texas (+6.5) vs Tennessee - Saturday at 7pm on CBS
I know no one on this board ever wants to be reasonable, especially after a loss. But it was a pretty good season. Tennessee is clearly the more talented team and we still almost stole one. We do need to get to work in the portal though, because I think our problems are much more about roster construction than anything in-game. This wasn’t actually a sweet 16 caliber team. There’s a reason we had to muck up games to have a chance.

Horton and Onyema were last minute replacements after we had two blue chip recruits bail out of their letter of intents. It was a unique emergency situation. We should not take those caliber of players again.

2024 NCAA Tournament - First Round Games - Thurs/Fri
Today's margins were a little worse than yesterday's, but 3 of the #1 seeds played today, so that's to be expected. Think we had 5 single digit margin games yesterday, we've had 3 so far today with a potential 4th. Also, it should be pointed out that FAU/Northwestern went to OT before it ended up a double digit margin.

James Madison led that game wire to wire. That was no Cinderella magic or anything, they were just clearly better than Wisconsin.

Yale is always salty in the tournament. Upset Baylor 6 or 7 years ago, almost upset LSU a couple of years ago, now they upset Auburn.

Texas Basketball Recruiting Notes: It's Miller Time
Yeah, I don't think they were all that great at developing players, which is why the money was the only point. And why it now serves no purpose with NIL being as big as it is.

Texas Basketball Recruiting Notes: It's Miller Time
The Ignite really were only created to give kids an option to make money without having to leave the country. NIL has rendered it pointless, closing it down is the right call. Yeah, most people thought he was flipping to Arkansas when he first asked out of his letter of intent here.

That was some clutch FT shooting by Duquesne.

We get the Winner: UVA and Colorado State - 8:10pm on truTV
This Virginia team had absolutely no business being in this tournament. Got in based on being a brand name, selection committee should be embarrassed.

Texas Basketball Recruiting Notes: It's Miller Time
No. I get that Hunter is frustrating, but Askew is a much worse player. Worse shooter, worse finisher, worse passer.

Texas Basketball Recruiting Notes: It's Miller Time
This dude has one of the worst offensive games I’ve ever seen from a power conference guard. Cal stinks, so a player can transfer there and get a green light they wouldn’t get at almost any other power conference school. Jaylon Tyson ended up at Cal and actually flourished there because of this. But Askew does almost nothing well offensively, an extra green light doesn’t matter for him.

Selection Sunday
It’s true we could easily lose in the first round, but save that pessimism for later, today is the day to shit on OU fans.

Rick Barnes thread
In these settings, the team that isn’t coached by Rick Barnes has the advantage.

We finished 3rd in this recruitment back when he first committed, but Kansas finished second.

Texas Recruiting Notes 2025: Duck Around and Find Out
No, as I said, I’m just guessing. They haven’t said publicly they’re a package deal. But if the two OL continue to rise, there will be more schools willing to take all 3, it won’t just be Tech.

Texas Recruiting Notes 2025: Duck Around and Find Out
The Coleman twins are actually the Coleman triplets. The 3rd brother is a DL who isn’t quite as big and won’t be as highly ranked as the other two. I’m guessing the biggest school willing to take all 3 is the one who lands them. Sand aggy has already offered all 3.

Texas Recruiting Notes 2025: Duck Around and Find Out
Wasn’t there talk recently of a kid who tried to commit and the staff told him to slow down? Could easily see that being Rink, and now he’s a little butthurt about being rebuffed.
