  1. i want to say it is? i'm like 65/35 that they have the episodes on hulu the day after they air.
  2. if he comes to Texas we're gonna be pretty good next year. as LonghornMatt said earlier, even Shaka can't fuck next year's team to the point where we miss the tourney (assuming GB III is a Horn). We should be a tournament team without him in all honesty. With a good coach we could even be a preseason top 20-25 team. We return everyone from a bubble team and will actually have an experienced, athletic, and deep roster next year. Add GB III and that's a really good looking team, HC notwithstanding. All of this is to say that the FEC will have 12,000+ throughout conference play if GB III joins and we play to something like 70% of our potential. I know that's a big "if", but GB III himself would be a pretty big attraction. We should definitely have better crowds next year.
  3. yeah that's exactly what i said to my mom. i said, "Gata has to actually be bipolar, because that wasn't acting- that was real." great performance, and not at all what i was expecting from the 4th or 5th episode of Lil Dicky's FX comedy. iirc i referred to LD as "sort of a white Donald Glover", and not only has this show basically been White Atlanta so to speak. but that episode last night really reminded me of the kind of stuff that DG is doing with Atlanta.
  4. "finds a bit"... fuck you iphone
  5. He might come to Texas. We are the favorite for a reason. Based on following his recruitment as well as his dad's comments, if they don't choose to go to the highest bidder then I really believe he chooses Texas. He's going to college for exactly one year, and his family isn't hurting for money. Shaka started recruiting him when he was in 8th grade and has a great relationship with the entire family, all of whom would like to be able to watch Greg play in person without having to travel to Lexington or Memphis. I'll be a little surprised if he doesn't choose Texas.
  6. "Buncha fuckin' losers. Fucking Rocky is your hero. The whole pride of your fucking city is built around a guy who doesn't even exist. Fuckin' Joe Frazier is from there, but he's black, so you can't fuckin' deal with him, so you make a fuckin' statue of some three-foot fucking Italian you stupid, fuckin' Philly cheese eating jackasses."
  7. Having recently been able to rewatch those games KD played against Tech and A&M only makes it 10x more absurd in my mind than it already was a week ago. I was watching him in total awe. He was an NBA All Star playing against college kids, and he was the youngest guy on the court. He was literally a 6'11" guard who could shoot from 25 feet, could dunk on anyone, could handle and drive as well as our All American PG, and oh yeah he averaged 12 boards, 2 blocks, and 2 steals per game. But, you know, gotta go with big man, right? 🙄 A couple of questions for all of the great NBA minds of 2007: When's the last time a guy was irrefutably they best college player by a hundred miles and all the NBA GM's were like, "nah, i'll pass for this other guy"? When's the last time a guy in the NBA didn't pan out because he wasn't strong enough? "Yeah, shame about Brandon. Shoots like Bird, passes like Magic, jumps like Michael, and he's seven feet tall; if only he could lift heavier weights."
  8. damn, just now catching up. i have to say- that was by far the most realistic depiction of being bipolar that i've ever seen. every scene, all of the dialogue, and that actor's emotions; wow; that was all insanely well done. i've seen many many movies shows that depict bipolar people and/or mental institutions, and this episode of Dave blows them all out of the water. that was amazing.
  9. and yet much like Shaka Smart coaching a team to the Final Four, this happened: proof that even a blind squirrel finds a bit every once in a while.
  10. she gets hotter and hotter as the series goes on. she's pretty smoking in season 3.
  11. I remember being at some game against either TCU or SMU where Chico hit like 9 threes and started the game 8/8 iirc. not much more to add, it was just cool to watch.
  12. yeah man Axtell could have been great at Texas without the whole grades fiasco. of course if that never happens then neither do Barnes/TJ/KD/etc, so all's well that ends well. that said, Axtell would have been a killer in today's game. he was perfectly suited for the modern style of basketball. just born too early i guess.
  13. Brown is far and away the best player to ever come out of the Austin area. Athletically he's like a 6'8" Kerwin Roach, but he actually has real basketball skill. Handle, passing, shooting, driving- he can do it all on offense. Our team next year will probably have five guys averaging double digits (or close to it), so he may not light up the world like KD, but he has a very well-rounded offensive game and should be an impact player from day one, assuming we change our offense and he's not just standing around the 3-point line like a ball rack. His one year in college should be full of highlight reel plays; just wish he got some real coaching/winning to go along with it.
  14. it's a three season show, and Dave is a treasure. I didn't like him either in the first run through; or the second, or probably even the third; but at some point I realized that the actor was just playing "Dave" to a T, and it became funny to me. Very, very funny.
  15. This team should be so fun to watch next year with the pieces we have. It's time to get back to what got this clown hired here, or at least something much closer to that than anything we've been running since he got here.
  16. They used to call it the Great 8 and then changed it to Elite 8 at some point.
  17. they've all but said that winter athletes will not get another year, so unless something changes between now and then, a lot of college athletes have lost their senior season.
  18. as painful and predictable as this season was, i still enjoyed watching this:
  19. last i saw NCAA said no extra year for winter athletes. Of course that doesn't really matter with this team.
