    I can't believe what passes for sports writing these days. "Last week, Texas lost head coach Shaka Smart to Marquette. That left the program with a massive hole to fill, but it found a way to land its top target." We "lost" him the way you lose some piece of fucking gum stuck to your shoe. And the only "hole" that's of concern is the sinkhole of a roster he left behind. Filling in for Shaka is not exactly a massive endeavor.

    "Still he is not Shaka and that is a win." The truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.
  3. Tired Horn
    It's a perfectly good hire. Just hope for the best. I'm still just giddy about being Shaka-free.
  4. Tired Horn
    There are some things in life so freakish they can't really be explained. You just have to experience it. Their fan base won't understand until Shaka has sucked all the joy out of Marquette Basketball with his unique brand of pointless on-the-court entropy.
  5. Tired Horn
    For those into Star Trek references, I guess you could also summarize our current situation as "Shaka, when the walls fell."
  6. Tired Horn
    The only way I would like this thread title more is if we could somehow have 110% less Shaka.
  7. Tired Horn
    Cruel but true. It's both a compliment and a slam, but I've always said you have to respect Lubbock. They really have made it all that it can be.
  8. Tired Horn
    No offense, but after six years of Shaka, I'd just like Texas to actually have a style of play again. As long as it wins, I'm good with it.
  9. Tired Horn
    I don't see this comparison as all that far off. The problem with Shaka is he hung around for six agonizing years when his limitations were obvious. Consequently, it felt almost as bad as Charlie.

    I'm just so ecstatic about being rid of Shaka that it's hard to think straight about a replacement at the moment. It's like we've been wandering in the desert for 40 years. Anything looks sweet by comparison. Just think - we may actually have an offense with purpose again instead of the random dartboard shit we've been watching. Hot damn!

    I'm reading the Marquette press release about how pleased they are to have Shaka... Bizarro world. Have they watched him for the last six years?
  12. Tired Horn
    Well you have to admit he achieved something--he united the fan base. Almost all of us were sick of him.
  13. Tired Horn
    That would be awesome if we could just shove him into a coaching transfer portal and never hear of him again.
  14. Tired Horn
    At least the world got an entertaining documentary out of Enron. There's literally nothing entertaining about Shaka's reign at Texas. It grates even when we win.

    "If nothing else, we're pretty thrilled to find out what Smart can do with players who get scholarship offers from all over the country yet actually want to don the uniform he's offering them." We found out. It wasn't exactly thrilling.

    Couldn't you say that about any year when comparing Shaka to another coach? The best we can hope for with Shakass is to occasionally make The Final 64.
  17. Tired Horn
    True. When you don't develop them properly, it's hard to know what you should do.
  18. Tired Horn
    At least with Shaka we know what we have. So there's that. (Sob)
  19. Tired Horn
    Didn't you watch the game? The plan was to turn the ball over. Poor Shaka--an artist unappreciated in his time.
  20. Tired Horn
    Why would anybody take him?
  21. Tired Horn
    Based on the data so far, trends point toward our new arena catching fire if Shaka opens it.
  22. Tired Horn
    At least Cornwallis was opposed by Washington with heavy French support. We surrendered to ACU.
  23. Tired Horn
    I would switch our coach for a fucking bag of mildewed sea weed right about now. And I'd consider it a bargain.
  24. Tired Horn
    Anybody still give a rat's ass about the Big 12 tournament?
  25. Tired Horn
    Well, it does prove that anything is possible.
