  1. love the fact that weaver seems to intimate that he too will be returning next season.
  2. jt toppin is made for the big time.
  3. ever since tech started playing their game, ie keeping arky out of the paint and forcing them into pull up jumpers, they’ve been in fire. they’ve made arky take bad shots, and they’ve improved their own shot selection. outstanding coaching job by mccasland.
  4. team that can get to the rim will win the game.
  5. oh her? that’s my girlfriend. she goes to another school.
  6. ho-lee-shit.
  7. he’s AJ/KD levels of “pure shooter”. if he’d played with a 3 point line he’d hold a whole bunch of records at UT. he’s on the very short list of best shooters in UT history- possibly the best ever.
  8. lol no he doesn’t. edit: *especially* when you consider that all of miller’s best years came when he was doing his jackie sherrill thing. in that light he’s miiiillleeeesss away. barnes is top 10 in all time wins and is a future HOFer. Miller is a guy who’s never won consistently without cheating. they are not the same.
  9. please let shohei stay healthy for the next 15 years. 🙏🏼
  10. if anyone ever releases a comprehensive highlight reel of tre’s one year here, his shot selection is going to really stand out. that dude is so unbelievably talented that he was able to score with relatively high efficiency despite taking an inordinate amount of incredibly difficult shots. short list of best scorers in Texas history, no order: KD Jim Krivacs Mike Wacker Travis Mays Tre Johnson Terrence Rencher note: as hard as this is for me to do, i’m actually leaving out guys like reggie freeman, j’covan brown, and jordan hamilton. they either weren’t efficient enough or weren’t consistent enough. hell, maybe junior year hamilton deserves to make that list. either way, the ooont stands: 18 year old Tre Johnson is one of the all time great scorers in Texas Basketball history.
  11. because nate oats is possibly the best offensive coach in college basketball, and we haven’t hired an offensive minded coach since tom penders.
  12. if this is surprising to you, you might be one of the many people here who have downplayed or underestimated our talent level this year. our offensive scheme was dog shit, and it was painful to watch so much of the time. that’s facts. but we still managed to score plenty of points and even scored fairly efficiently because we had individual talent commensurate with a team that spends the entire season in the top 25 and that goes to the S16. yeah, RT might still be here had we been better offensively, but it’s his trademark “every three is a wide open three” defense that really did us in. sec defensive ranks: TO%- 13th (226th nationally) FTA/FGA- 16th 3P%- 12th FT%- 13th Steal%- 15th
  13. these whistles are ridiculous. jesus christ, let them play.
  14. also 11 TO’s for florida, wow.
  15. injuries and foul trouble-could spell disaster for florida.
  16. posted in the wrong thread, but putting it here anyway: oh snap, he just pulled out a transition shammgod in the middle of the S16! that shit was sick.
  17. love watching a S16 game in an arena with a half empty lower bowl.
  18. our offense was better than our defense.
  19. the team that’s losing after 7 minutes is on pace to score 120.
  20. also, even if you do seek treatment, we are in the infancy stages of taking mental healthcare seriously, and there’s not a worse place in america to be mentally ill and seeking help than in Texas.
  21. and yet and still, the prevailing sentiment about shaka is somehow this: this guy is more full of shit and out of touch than any coach in america. unfortunately, americans are so goddamn stupid that a bunch of them actually buy this horseshit. i mean, imagine composing a 26 goddamn page document about culture and sending it to HS kids who already don’t/can’t read and thinking that that’s going to be some huge draw for them. never mind that your actual, empirical culture is one of empty platitudes and embarrassing, early round upset losses in the tourney. who in the hell would even want to play for this egomaniacal snake oil salesman?
