I was at both of those in person and also at the Final 4 in New Orleans the week after San Antonio but the Rose Bowl was the pinnacle and it’s not real close. I say that as a bigger basketball fan than football fan and as the son of a Texas basketball player. He played in the 60’s and was at all the above games with me and he would even agree.

I was at all 3 as well. No disagreement that people justifiably say wining a national championship trumps going to the Final Four. 

Football is the crown sports at Texas and it had won national championships. It was expected that it would win another at some point.

No one really envisioned Texas sniffing a Final Four until Ford came around and the program got over that hump against Michigan State. It was and is all about expectations in that respect.  

Everyone has their favorite moment.  There is no wrong answer.  It's all about the context, expectations and so much more.

Feels just like yesterday Barnes was bringing Krispy Kreme to us idiots camping in the breezeway outside Belmont waiting to get tickets…

 

Wait, no it doesn’t. I’m getting fucking old.

Still, tonight gonna be fun

Haven’t watched a college basketball game all year, will watch this one. It’s getting a lot of buzz. One thing you can always count on Barnes to do is choke in a big game, hopefully this one is big enough.

Marcus Carr is so careless sometimes 

Well at least it looks like Carr is intently listening to what Beard is telling him.
