  1. Generally when you're paying these buyouts you're asking your donors, who are also currently your chief funders for NIL, to foot that cost. It makes sense given the times. Especially considering schools are deciding not to fire coaches because buyout cost + still needing to fund NIL.
  2. You sound like a pussy. Otz meets that criteria and he's a good coach. Billy Donovan doesn't have a buyout if he comes from NBA(if fired), big if's obviously. Just hire Scott Drew so you'll be forced to be a fan of his and we can all laugh at the mental gymnastics that would ensue. As CTJ pointed out, would you rather spend 10-12 million on a coach buyout and not have 3-4 million extra in NIL?
  3. It means exactly what it says it means. They're not going to spend 8-15 million on Lloyd, Oats, etc.
  4. I don't believe it is. Will have to scour Twitter and potentially post press conference stream from OTF
  5. Sark is about to start his pre-spring practice OTA press conference.
  6. He followed up with this regarding that criteria:
  7. Yes. 3.22 lbs post cook and I'm not even sure how. It looked like a competition cut brisket and the cutters were also shocked by the size. Surprised they even served it and didn't put it to the side for the addon for mac n cheese.
  8. Gerry: Texas basketball ... Barring the miraculous, the end game is known. There are two very important factors to know with the likely coaching search upcoming. 1. If the salary is needed to go to 7-8 million a year, that is on the table. 2. If a coach has a large buyout, that is not likely on the table. It's not that Texas can't do it, but it's not smart money. 3. What is a large buyout? Likely over 5 million. So, Texas is willing to invest 7-8 mill a year for the right head coach. That would mean Texas could invest 16-18 million a year all in (HC salary, staff salary pool and NIL). That would allow CDC to potentially bring in a HC with the staff and NIL to compete with just about anyone in college basketball. That is very good news for the Texas hoops fan base if it plays out that way. Rodney Terry's future when/if the Longhorns move on: South Florida has serious interest in Coach Terry, based on a conversation I had Sunday morning. I'm not saying he would be the hire, as this stuff changes quickly. But serious interest, yes. The college hoops coaching carousel ... There are currently 16 jobs that have opened early on, with four already having made hires (Miami, FSU, Utah and SFA). Indiana, Virginia and NC State are the high-major jobs currently open. That list will expand during the week. That number could reach into the 40's this cycle, but is expected to fall short of last cycles extreme activity. Last years coaching carousel saw 68 jobs open and filled.
  9. Went to Pinkerton's spot in SA last Thursday for lunch. Ribs were on point as always but the brisket was not the best I've had from there. I'll chalk that up to it being a tiny brisket that when they pulled it out it only weighed 3 lbs and the "moist" end tasted like a normal flat. Jalapenos Sausage was fantastic as was the duck/sausage jambalaya side.
  10. You were doing good until this.
  11. That’s what was weird to highest his temp got was 99.5 which isn’t even a fever, technically. So we initially just thought it was a cold until we saw some labored breathing and weezing Tuesday. We got sent home Friday around lunch after he was able to maintain his oxygen levels without oxygen being supplied. He’s seemed to get better each day. Still not drinking the normal amount is bottles we had been giving him but pretty close within 6-8oz. Also doesn’t help he had a tooth beak through within the last week as well
  12. And the practice facility. You can say that about any sport at Texas, even football.
  13. Maybe T&F but we will see if this was rebuilding year or not next year
  14. Let me know when Ewers becomes a Super Bowl champion!
  15. We’re all married here, you don’t have to lie.
  16. He didn't do shit regarding the elite 8. He definitely was a waste of time. Round of 32 is fucking pointless, good job on the participation trophy.
  17. Does anyone actually want our team to "make a run" in the conference tourney? We're 6-12 in conference play. Has a team with that conference record ever made the tourney?
  18. Best bet is to fire immediately and bring in new guy ASAP for jump on portal.
  19. Bro hired a PI and caught her ass cheating so he kicked her out and she lied her ass off. She should be prosecuted.
  20. Ehlinger wishes he played with as many NFL players around him as Quinn.
  21. New thread title? Xavier Worthy - Chokin’
