  1. Rebuild with several new players not familiar with system and new coach with questions as to how well he can do with his own roster and coaching style Lack of PT and development of 5 star recruits The theme that Terry was basically surfing Beard’s wake… which lost steam as Terry kept the team on track The theme that assistants no longer on the team were “running the offense/defense” The theme that Texas has a gluttony of riches and resources that at times makes players lax, focused on $ over hard work, and distracted from just winning games Disclaimer: I don’t agree with many of these
  2. So damn smooth and focused… will be missed
  3. Lets get some crooked numbers in the R column this inning
  4. Just like a red light does a whorehouse
  5. My vote is no, with the caveat that giving a walk-on quality player a scholarship to fill up the spots doesn't count.
  6. That’s a wet dream until we see what is on the roster. Even with a couple decent to good portal transfers this team won’t sniff a 1-4 seed … way too much turnover… with maybe three strong portal transfers (if they even exist) and Hunter and Disu back, we might have a shot at a 4 seed and top 3 conference finish … but right now a tourney 8 seed and top 1/2 conference finish would be a success
  7. Any coach competing for a portal guy with RT will absolutely point that out
  8. Chris Beard was on the verge of turning Texas into a monster. Anyone who thinks RT will be as successful as Beard COULD have been are not worth debating. Beard definitely has the higher ceiling, which approaches dynasty level. That said, one is here and the other isn't, because Beard despite all of his salesmanship and coaching prowess... is a moeran. Let's also all remember that Beard was 65-38 in his last 4 seasons (63.1%). Granted, it looked like he had it going in 22/23, but there are no guarantees. And yes, Terry has a career 0.530 record, but that includes two major rebuilds at historically bad teams. His last 3 years at Fresno he was 66-34 (66.0%). He won't be a 0.500 coach at Texas. I would bet my retirement on it. Next year will be much rougher than this year due to all the roster turnover… regardless of who was the coach… if Terry can get some good portal value and put a competitive, hard nose team on the floor next year, he could well have a good run at Texas
  9. If you can find it after that moonshot
  10. I guess Jameer, Sr must have starting humping without his raincoat at a very young age.
  11. I want a team addicted to playing well enough to keep winning
  12. Throwing smoke!!!
  13. We definitely need a interior shot altering decent rebounding big man from the portal … someone who could step in and start if Disu can’t or at least a big body that can give some valuable minutes inside and keep the opponents’ centers from easier shots against smaller defenders
  14. How old is Nigel pack?… 13?
  15. We need to tighten our defense up a bit
  16. Gotta have Timmy moving WITHOUT the ball
  17. My money is on both teams cooling off a little
  18. Fucking refs owe us 2 fouls now
  19. Spacing and passing very good currently
  20. Number 2 for Miami looks like a young ostrich
  21. Aside from the rumble with the fiancé, beard’s biggest lapse this season may have been not getting a big from the portal that could provide 10 mins or so a game if necessary …
  22. This Creighton center looks like a habitual nose picker
  23. A moron with an agenda who thinks contracts come ready for signature without any need to read them or negotiate terms.
  24. I believe his showing to coach talent this year should come with the added variable that the talent is very seasoned and has played together a year in the system … I thinks he’s shown well as to adjusting in game, use of timeouts, lineup juggling, and scouting opponents’ tendencies… will that stay consistent with new players and if he loses some of his assistants? The unknown is whether he can bring in new portal or layers and talented young guys and get them acclimated fast enough to compete for a top 3 big 12 finish and decent tourney seed… Absent Donovan or wright being interested I think signing Terry for 4-5 years with performance incentives and a low buyout is a reasonable choice And fuck these sportscasters for even trying to make the interim tag an issue before the season has ended and the sides have time to complete a duel diligent search and negotiate possible terms
