  1. Apart from everything else, the French and British are showing that they sense an end to American hegemony, and it opens an avenue for a Franco-British alliance to take over as the primary players running the Western Alliance. Their play is to put troops on the ground and expect that will turn the weight of the fighting in short order and force Russia to seek an armistice. And in so doing, they basically remove the United States as the driver of Western security going forward. It’s honestly a good play. Ukraine has softened them up. Now the Brits and Frogs get to come in and get the credit and benefits of the big win just like we did in 1918.
  2. this is the game. as far as i can tell this is a de facto play-in game. if we win this next game then we should get to 7, possibly 8 league wins plus a chance to win another in the league tourney. if we lose this game to an 0-11 south carolina and go to 16-11 (5-9), followed by a road game in fayatteville (likely ending with us 16-12 (5-10)), then we are trending downward in a way that will be incredibly tough to recover from. 2-3 league tourney wins minimum needed at that point.
  3. these last 5 games are going to be crazy. we are playing 3 teams on the bubble(2 on the road) and desperate like us. add a top 25 team on the road. SoCar is a must win.
  4. Texas loses at home - "Has this clown been fired yet? I can't make myself to watch this shitshow." Texas wins at home - "We might go to sweet 16 if we can get hot. RT has been a damn good steward of the program. He is probably back next year."
  5. Are we going to fuck around and win just enough to keep from being able to fire Terry?
  6. Ranking every Canada-USA matchup from a men’s best-on-best hockey tournament Sean McIndoe 12–14 minutes The Athletic has live coverage of United States vs. Canada at the 4 Nations Face-Off On Saturday night, after over eight years of waiting, it’s finally back: Canada vs. USA in a best-on-best men’s hockey tournament. OK, maybe the 4 Nations Face-Off doesn’t have quite the same claim to “best-on-best” status as some of the tournaments that have come before it, given that only four teams are competing. But those four teams are bringing the very best players they have available, so yes, this is a best-on-best matchup. And it should be a good one. Tomorrow marks the 20th time in men’s hockey history that Team Canada has faced Team USA in a true best-on-best, by which we mean the Canada Cup, the World Cup and the Olympics in years in which the NHL sent its players. Canada has dominated the head-to-head with a record of 14-4-1, but it’s been closer since the dawn of the World Cup and Olympic era, and this year’s matchup is basically a coin flip. We’ll see how it turns out, and whether we have to settle for just this one game or get a rematch in next week’s championship game. For now, let’s look back on those 19 previous matchups and rank them from worst to best. No. 19. Canada 8, USA 3 (1981 Canada Cup round-robin) This is the biggest blowout in the rivalry’s best-on-best history and it’s not all that close — and it came in a half-empty Northlands Coliseum. In fairness, it was a closer contest than the score would suggest, with Canada scoring five times in the final 10 minutes to take the lead and then pull away. But given that the two teams would meet in a better game with higher stakes just a few days later, it’s not a tough call to put this one in the last spot. No. 18. Canada 6, USA 3 (1991 Canada Cup round-robin) The flip side of the previous entry, the score was flattering here, as Canada jumped out to a 5-0 lead on the strength of big games from Wayne Gretzky and a teenaged Eric Lindros. Considering they’d meet in the final a few days later, this game was quickly forgotten by everyone, even our AI overlords. No. 17. USA 4, Canada 4 (1984 Canada Cup round-robin) Thankfully, this will be the only tie we’ll encounter in the rivalry’s history. It was historically significant at the time, marking the first best-on-best meeting between the two teams that Canada hadn’t won, and it clearly meant a lot to the Americans based on their celebration of the tying goal with four minutes left. (Fun side game: See if you can count how many times goalie interference would be called on that play based on today’s rules.) Still, any hopes for a rematch in the final were dashed when Team USA was pummelled 9-2 by the Swedes in the semis, and to this day this tournament is remembered more for Canada’s 3-2 overtime win over the Soviets in that same round than anything else, including the final. No. 16. Canada 4, USA 1 (1981 Canada Cup semifinal) This was the first (and until 1991, the only) time the two teams had met in an elimination game. Canada picked up where it left off in the round-robin matchup, scoring three first-period goals to run its total to eight in the last 30 minutes the two teams had played. The game tightened up from there, but the Americans never really got close. Canada would go on to be embarrassed by the Soviets in the final, making 1981 probably the most forgettable Canada Cup tournament, at least from a North American perspective. No. 15. Canada 4, USA 2 (2016 World Cup round-robin) This was best-on-best with a small asterisk, as the existence of the under-23 Team North America meant that names like Connor McDavid couldn’t take part in this matchup. Still, it delivered a solid game, with Team USA scoring early and late and Canada controlling in between. The game was part of a disappointing 0-for-3 showing by the Americans, who were eliminated from the playoffs with this loss. (By the way, the two teams also split a pair of pre-tournament exhibition games, which occasionally show up in these tournaments but we’re not counting on our overall list because come on.) No. 14. Canada 4, USA 2 (1976 Canada Cup round-robin) The first-ever best-on-best meeting between the two nations saw the underdog Americans put up a solid fight against a heavily favored Canadian team that would cruise to a tournament win. Canada jumped out to a 3-0 lead early, but the Americans fought back in front of 21-year-old goalie Pete LoPresti, who was awarded their player of the game honors. Team Canada’s player of the game? Bobby Orr. Yeah, there may have been a slight talent disparity between these two rosters. No. 13. Canada 1, USA 0 (2014 Olympics semifinal) Is it weird that I have virtually no recollection of this game, even though it’s one of the most recent? Maybe not, since this edition of Team Canada was simultaneously one of history’s best teams and also its most boring, playing a stifling defensive game on the way to an undefeated tournament. The only goal came from Jamie Benn and was assisted by, according to this international announcer, somebody named Jaybauw Meester. No. 12. Canada 2, USA 1 (2004 World Cup round-robin) The 2004 World Cup was a decidedly weird affair, playing out just days before the start of the lockout that would end up wiping out the entire NHL season. It kicked off with this low-scoring matchup, which saw Martin Brodeur outduel, uh, Robert Esche. I would make a joke here about goaltending mismatches in international hockey, but, well, you know. No. 11. Canada 3, USA 2 (1987 Canada Cup round-robin) Despite how history has come to remember it, this tournament did include teams other than Canada and the Soviets. Team USA was there, and while they ultimately missed the playoff round, they gave Canada a tough game. It took three goals from Mario Lemieux — or as he called it in 1987, “an off night” — to get past a 37-save performance by John Vanbiesbrouck. No. 10. USA 5, Canada 3 (2010 Olympics round-robin) It would be overshadowed by what would happen between these two teams a few days later, but this game had some meaningful stakes with first place in the group on the line; the American win gave them a first-round bye and an easier path through the playoff round. Brian Rafalski played the hero with a pair of first-period goals, including one that came less than a minute in. No. 9. Canada 4, USA 1 (1991 Canada Cup final, Game 1) No. 8. Canada 4, USA 2 (1991 Canada Cup final, Game 2) The Americans at least put up a fight, especially in the second game, which saw Canada need a late short-handed goal from Steve Larmer to take the lead for good, as Bill Ranford outdueled Mike Richter. The mini-sweep was a letdown after the legendary three-game final in 1987, but it was progress for Team USA, who finished second in a best-on-best for the first time ever. They’d have to wait five years for their shot at taking the last step, but they’d be ready. No. 7. USA 5, Canada 3 (1996 World Cup round-robin) It might seem strange to list a round-robin game this high on our list, especially given that these two teams would play three more games with much higher stakes within two weeks. But with five years having passed since the two teams had met in the 1991 final, the “Canada” stripped out of the Canada Cup, and the Americans icing by far their best team ever, there was a lot of anticipation for this matchup. Mix in a feisty Philadelphia crowd, and the intensity was at an all-time high. How high? Well, how many times have you seen a full-line brawl in a best-on-best international tournament? That all took 20 seconds to start, by the way. Luckily, we no longer have any Tkachuks around to make trouble so we should be (checks earpiece) oh no. No. 6. Canada 4, USA 1 (1998 Olympics round-robin) Coming just a year and a half after the hotly contested 1996 World Cup, the NHL’s first foray into the Olympics had already been penciled in for another USA-Canada final. This game was assumed to be a warmup for the 1998 gold medal showdown that, of course, never came. As it turns out, I remember this game primarily for two things: Surprising Team Canada pick Rob Zamuner scoring a goal on a gorgeous feed from Gretzky, and (far more importantly) Mike Myers showing up on David Letterman a few days later and taunting the American audience by continuously finger-flashing the 4-1 score. Luckily the Americans wouldn’t have seen it since none of their hotel room TVs were working for some reason. No. 5. Canada 4, USA 3 OT (1996 World Cup final, Game 1) No. 4. USA 5, Canada 2 (1996 World Cup final, Game 2) No. 3. USA 5, Canada 2 (1996 World Cup final, Game 3) We saw what happened in the round-robin a few slots up. This was the main event. The opener featured an American tying goal in the dying seconds of regulation leading to a Steve Yzerman winner in overtime. That would be the first of just two best-on-best overtimes these two nations have ever played, and yes, we’ll get to the second one in a bit. The Game 1 loss felt like a massive missed opportunity for the Americans, as the remainder of the best-of-three shifted back to Canadian ice. But Team USA missed the memo about a coronation and fought back with an impressive 5-2 win in the second game to even the series and set up the first winner-take-all showdown in the rivalry’s history. They delivered a classic in front of a rabid Montreal crowd (which included a young future writer for The Athletic who didn’t regain full use of his voice for about a week). Canada took a 2-1 lead into the dying minutes before the Americans unloaded for four straight goals to capture their first and so far only best-on-best title. With only two slots to go, there’s no surprise as to which games are left. Let’s see if the order surprises you … No. 2. Canada 3, USA 2 OT (2010 Olympics gold medal game) No. 1. Canada 5, USA 2 (2002 Olympics gold medal game) I can absolutely see the case for swapping these two. Having these two nations play sudden death with a gold medal on the line made for irresistible drama, especially after Team USA forced the extra period with seconds left in regulation. And there’s no question that Sidney Crosby’s golden goal is almost certainly the most famous moment the rivalry will ever produce. In fact, let’s watch it a few times: The ending was phenomenal — so good that it almost entirely compensates for the first 59 minutes of this game being a defensive-minded slog. If you wanted to put 2010 at the very top of your own list, be my guest. But if you’re old enough to remember 2002, you know how this game felt important in a way that no meeting between these two countries before or since ever has. For Team USA, this was the game that everything had been building toward for decades — a chance to claim hockey’s international crown once and for all, on home ice, in front of a massive TV audience both at home and around the globe. Meanwhile, Canada was in the midst of a full-blown existential hockey crisis after the disappointments of 1996 and 1998, and we’d spent years reminding each other that the country hadn’t won Olympic gold since 1952. The Americans desperately wanted to win. The Canadians desperately needed to. The game didn’t have overtime, but it had everything else. This was the game that featured Mario Lemieux somehow giving us arguably the greatest goal of his legendary career without even touching the puck. The game had 14 future Hall of Famers and counting on Team Canada, plus seven more on Team USA, meaning more than half the players in the game were all-time legends. It had a breathtakingly tense third period, until the dam finally broke late. It gave us Bob Cole at his very best, with Jah-yoe Sakic and Surely That’s Gotta Be It. It should be in the conversation for the single greatest hockey game ever played. And despite all that, it’s only barely ahead of the 2010 OT thriller on my list. If you’re American, maybe you think the 1996 finale is right there with them. One thing we can agree on: When everything clicks just right, these two national teams can deliver a moment that lives forever. Let’s see what we’re in for on Saturday night.
  7. Are we really going to go with the schedule is too hard? Other teams can win in Arlington. The winning tradition shall not blah blah blah....
  8. I get that Texas baseball ain't Texas basketball - but look at the track record Pierce had and how quickly CDC pulled the plug there. Sure - he had Schloss in the bag - but Schloss wasn't going anywhere. The idea that Texas can't make a good hire this offseason and has to wait a year is fucking ridiculous. We aren't a better destination than UNC so what difference does that make? And CDC is paid to do shit like outbid and outsell Indiana for a basketball hire (which shouldn't be hard - we've been better than them the last 20 years even with Shaka's reign of shit). Like we have already said here this program is on life-support right now from a fan interest and buy-in standpoint - and a big reason why is because we were JUST reminded that - oh hey - you CAN win at Texas. We had our guy get canned 11 games in in a huge scandal and an average coach take over and still should have made the Final Four (I mean shit - RT almost made a SS LAST season). Plus - if I'm a prospective hire I'd rather take over after this season and try and pull off a quick rebound than have to clean up an even bigger mess after next season. TLDR - I think IT is full of shit.
  9. Realistically, how many of our remaining six game do we have a chance of winning? Maybe the South Carolina game? Arkansas? I’m thinking we’d be lucky to win two more. If we get whipped by Kentucky tomorrow, we might see a totally defeated team and go 0-6. It’s not my hope at all, but I can’t see how RT survives unless they go 4-2 and make a SEC and NCAA tourney run. Hell has a better chance of snow though.
  10. im going on record: if Texas wins a play-in game or something and then gets hot for one weekend and goes to the S16, i reject the idea that CDC “has” to keep RT. in fact i would argue that this specific situation would be the very reason we pay him the big bucks. CDC already knows that RT isn’t the guy; i’m sure he’s known that since before RT was given the HC position full time. as much as fans want to make the entire 4.5 month season all about tourney results, that’s not how a highly paid, elite AD works. if he’s not the guy then you let him go and you bring in someone who is. whatever push back you get will be short lived, and will be irrelevant if you replace RT with a clear upgrade. so yeah, i’ll say right now that i don’t care what RT does in the tourney, assuming that this season ends the way we all think it will. 7-11 in january - march >>> a couple of wins in the tourney.
  11. We are going to be their 1 conference win, aren’t we…
  12. Assuming we don't win a national title in women's basketball this season, who gets one first at Texas: Vic, Sark or Schloss? I know it depends on an endless number of variables, but I could see any of the three ultimately being the right answer. Let's go ahead and get one for the women and watch the other two guys battle it out for next.
  13. By the time my wife was going to have our fourth and final, we were kind of out of names that we liked. I went for broke and threw a few out there that I thought were cool. Titan was one of them. I did not win.
  14. there’s been some discussion lately in other threads about me “pining for texas to hire rick barnes” or how im “obsessed”, or “pretending to be a vols fan now”, so i just decided to address those posts here, in the pertinent thread. none of this is new, it’s all just a reminder: i did not/do not personally know rick barnes very well. i’ve had a limited number of conversations with the man. i was in 7th grade when he was hired, and i was still around the program at that time, and i met him at his first ever Texas practice, where i spent the day playing 1-on-1 against his on nick, who is my same age. barnes took over for tom penders, a man i’d known my entire life. one night when i was like 10 years old i got out the family address book and called up coach penders and told him that i thought he should change his starting lineup. that was my relationship with the Texas HC for as long as i could remember, and for 13 year old me, rick barnes was just the new guy in that spot, and i was excited to meet him and to get to know him and his team. so, barnes takes over, we win the league his first year, and we spend the next decade as one of the 10 best programs in college basketball. rick barnes has taken the thing that i love the most and brought it to greater heights than i’d ever imagined. the guy is hugely responsible for so, so much happiness and fulfillment in my young life. i really do cut for the guy, no doubt. then things go downhill. and when things go downhill, the torches and pitchforks come out, and i’m here on these boards every day taking exception to the way that people are talking about and treating rick barnes. i get labeled a barnes apologist/sycophant, and this only serves to dig me further in to my position of supporting barnes and disavowing any and all personal shit talk and ill will towards him. i already really really liked him, but i had been radicalized at this point. now, he gets fired in a horse shit move by the feckless steve patterson who didn’t have the balls to just go ahead and fire barnes, instead hoping barnes would fire all of his closest friends himself in order to save his job. so that was bullshit too. but here’s what you’ve really got to remember: i had, and still have, many close relationships with several former players and coaches who were here under rick barnes. so when he got fired, so did my friends; so did my mentor. on top of that my mentor’s wife was a teacher at my school at the time and i was very close with her and their children as well. these people’s lives were uprooted when this happened, on top of which is the fact that all of these people who i am friends with genuinely love rick barnes themselves. like actual, real life love. all the while his name is getting dragged left and right on these boards, and im being attacked for defending him. it was personal to me. it affected the lives of lots of people who i really really care about, people who themselves are extremely close with rick and his family. it was a hard time. so now, with all of that said, all i have left to say is this: if you really still think im just some rick barnes fanboy who is “obsessed” with our former coach, simply because i still root for him and wish him success, then i just don’t know what to tell you other than it says a lot about your maturity level and understanding of the situation. i am not infatuated with some random former coach, i simply, and unabashedly still support our former coach, a guy who has meant a lot to me without me personally knowing him particularly well, as well as a guy who is very important to lots of people who are very important to me. this is basic human shit here. if you still don’t get it, you probably never will.
  15. No, Derka is clearly ruling him out. Texas is exactly the type of program that should actually take a flyer on a guy like McCollum. We're clearly not anywhere close to blueblood status so go get a young coach with a championship pedigree and let him build a program. Give him all the resources he needs to be successful and if the wins come then so does increase NIL money and resources. If we hit on the guy and he proves to the winner his resume says he is we have a coach for the next 10-20 years unless he tries his hand at the NBA. Also there isn't much of a difference in taking a gamble on an assistant currently on a staff(even one that has been on staff for years) vs a young championship pedigree coach. Neither are proven commodities as HC's so some will work out and some will not work out for both.
  16. correct. we should rule him out because he’s been the HC at drake for three total months and therefore *does not meet the qualifications* of anyone whom cdc would consider. i’ve made this post before, but it’s as if people think that the basketball coach holds practice a few times a week, coaches his two games a week, and that’s that. well that’s not that. it’s so so so much more. the HC at the University off Texas is like a high paid ceo of a fortune 500 company, and it doesn’t really matter how awesome the guy in the mail room is, he’s not up for the ceo job should it become vacant. being the head men’s basketball coach at Texas is a 60-80 hr/week job (sometimes more) that involves recruiting (and all of the insanity that comes with it in the NIL era), working the transfer portal, fund raising, philanthropy, hiring and managing assistants and support staff, implementing a strength and conditioning program, managing fragile teenage egos and emotions, making sure everyone’s grades and attendance are on point, drumming up fan support and attendance, scheduling, keeping A LOT of shit in house that you don’t want going public…and so much more. a guy proving to be adept with x’s and o’s and winning at a level where they play in HS gyms where no one is watching does not mean he is ready or even capable of taking on the job of HC at the University of Texas. the parts of the job that the public is privy to make up only a fraction of what the job in its entirety entails. this is why ben mccollum is not a candidate for this job. this is why he will need multiple years as a HC at the D-1 level before programs much smaller than Texas will offer him the job at their school. i mean he hasn’t even shown he can recruit yet, as the majority of his current drake team came with him and has been playing together for years. for all the complaining here lately about chris beard and rick barnes being brought up, at least those guys actually coached here and are pertinent to these conversations. if there’s one guy we all should stop talking about it’s ben mccollum, because the guy is simply not qualified to even interview for this job.
  17. the suns are going nowhere fast this year and the rockets have their pick. it could legitimately be a top 10 pick. maybe the rockets trade for KD on draft night and include that pick as part of the package? need to beat the warriors (another team going nowhere fast) tonight and close out the first "half" with a sense of momentum after that 6 game slide. only 28 games left to go in the regular season and the Rockets have a legit shot at 50 wins and a top 4 seed. we'd have all been ecstatic with that before the season. especially if we had known they'd do it without making any major moves and it was primarily due to this young core we've drafted and developed.
  18. What is the point of trading for Fox mid-season if you're going to just piss the 2nd half away with a patsy head coach? I have no idea what we are doing. Are we trying to win games?
  19. SEC play 15.6 ppg, 7.1 rpg, 0.7 bpg, 1.5 spg 85.7% FT Averaging 32.7 mpg She needs to go on a tear here to win SEC POY, but right now, probably Amoore's to lose - averaging 25.4 ppg playing 37.2 mpg, shooting 47% from the field, 37% from three and 82% from the line As of right now, my guess would be: POY - Amoore FOY - Blakes (duh) DPOY - Clara Strack or Sania Feagin COY - Shea Ralph or Kenny Brooks, but if we finish 15-1 in SEC play, Vic could get it
  20. we have to go 4-1 in the last 5 just to get to 8 wins. I give that about 1% chance with this crew.
  21. so the poker gods have rewarded me after I made a really big laydown. played on sat night, lost 300 on my first hand, rebought for 400, about 1 rotation later the guy who I had lost the 300 to has been opening way too often and way too light, I make it 15 from EP with AKhh. 2 callers, he then makes it 75. and folds to me, i jam, everyone folds, he calls the runout was rainbow low cards i show the AK, he mucks, I win another all in a few mins later on the button with J9hh having 3 bet to 55 against an action player, we both started with similar chip stacks, so 600 ish. he called and flop came Qh Th 3x, he checked, i bet out $50, he insta raised to $125, and I then 3 bet all in, he called with QTo. we run it once, Ah turn, brick river. then the hand of the night. Ive lost a bit down to $1100 ish, villian is an older guy who is both a calling station, a drawing station and any 2 cards he likes, he plays. Im UTG and look down at KK. min click to $5 because I expect some action behind. Old guy who also has ~$1100 is behind. makes it $15, 3 callers and it comes around to me, I insta raise to $75.... and the old guy just grabs a stack of green. it was 9 or 10 of them. doesnt count it, doesnt think twice and doesnt even pull back the 15, folds to me.... and ive been playing with this guy for 2 years, he has NEVER 4 bet pre. and ive only seen him do it one other time when he had the absolute nuts on the river. I announced I am going to do something ive never done and I fold the KK faceup... whole table full of regulars is giving me absolute total shit... until Charles flips over AA as hes throwing it into the muck.... HOT DAMN that felt good, i should have been felted that hand. left after losing another 100 in a pot, in for 700 out for 920. played today, and won a 4 way all in early on where 1 person had $45 left and the others all had what I had, 300ish. i was up against JJ, Kjo and 3rd hand never showed, with QQ. take it down. a while later i snap call a large river 2x pot bluff with 3rd pair against a kid who i found out later is a very accomplished tournament player, supposedly with more than 2.5m in winnings (no idea who he is). and finally I limp 3 bet with AJo from LP for $60, 1 caller, not the initial better, the SB who is very active, young, and spewy. flop is Ah Ks Qs, he checks I bet $50, he snap raises to $200 with another $250 behind. I just decide hes bluffing his ass off... and I shove... he snap calls beating me into the pot. uh oh..... we run it once, turn 3d, river 5x and he flips over A6ss. I was only supposed to win that hand 1 in 3 times and this was the time I won. in for 300 out for 1680 after 2.5 hours.
  22. Lol. Simmons and the dudes he had on talked about this on a trade deadline pod. They were like "this feels like the NBA of the early 2000s" and Khan's name came up. The AD instant non-contact tweak feels like the basketball Gods spiting Dallas. He's actually been fairly durable the past couple seasons and has avoided those type of nags. I can't hate Luka. I feel bad for him. Shit - I never hated him on the Mavs - I've always been fairly indifferent when it comes to him or Jokic winning. That said I hope the Lakers never win a title with him under contract. I hope they never make the Finals. Frankly - every game they win with Luka on the court will make me slightly sick to my stomach. Which - frankly - makes me more impatient with the Spurs. My internal monologue is screaming - "we need to get good and start challenging these fucks NOW". That may be a little unreasonable but shit, man. I feel like Wemby needs to keep them from getting another dynasty going.
  23. Yeah I mean inconsistency is a perfectly viable reason for people to be let go in the real world. Beating Bama at home during the regular season would be great and all, but I don’t see a single conference win being able to save his job if other things happen as we expect them to based on all of the discussion points made about this team and the way they play/are coached.
  24. We are just going to agree to disagree. Bottom line, Texas wants to win. Whether Drew is a piece of shit and a public Texas enemy is not going to stop us from hiring him. Brother, we just hired a men's swimming and diving coach who admitted to sending sexually explicit texts to swimmers and has been accused multiple times of abusing swimmers. We hired him because he's damn good and guess what we're now #1 in the nation. Texas cares about winning. If you think being a "piece of shit" is going to stop us from hiring Drew you are kidding yourself.
  25. I would never bet on that because it's contingent on 1) Texas even having an opening. 2) Drew actually wanting to leave Baylor. It's hilarious to me that you think Texas wouldn't hire Drew when 3 of our last major hires in Sark, Herman, and Beard all had major issues in the past. But yeah, we aren't going to hire a guy like Drew. Don't dare go look at the past of our recent hire in men's swimming and diving but we are #1 in the nation for a reason. I'm not sitting on any info. I just know Texas wants to win and if a top 5ish coach is available they're going to hire him.
