Unless this team crashes down the stretch (possible) they’ll more likely than not go 2-2 the last four games, and that will get the team in the NCAA tournament.

For fuck's sake, Terry needs to go.  At this point, Bob Weltlich would be an improvement. 

My time in Austin coincided with the "Kaiser Bob" era. I was a Wrangler so I had to attend the games. Doubt there's ever been a greater combination of shitty and boring basketball unless we're witnessing it now

I mean, we just lost to fucking South Carolina. I don’t think it’s beyond the realm of possibility this team just quits

Which is why I said it’s possible this team crashes.

We will lose on Wednesday and at Mississippi State. Can this team rally and protect their home court? We will see because both UGA and ou will be fighting to get into the tournament as well.

2-2 with a loss in the sec tourney leaves us at 18-14 and out of the tourney. so, barring a miracle road win, losing even one of the uga, ou, or sec 1st round games, it’s over.

Dude, a simple google search will debunk a lot of this.  Tech was Pat Knight’s first job due to nepotism.  He was also an abysmal 29-62 at Lamar AFTER Tech fired him.  Rodney Terry won a conference tourney at Fresno and has a winning record as a head coach.  He made the tourney at Fresno and is at least a mediocre coach.  To compare him to Pat Knight is quite frankly insulting.  I’m not saying he’s the right man for Texas, but I am saying that facts are important.  It’s pretty incredible that you can continue to make false statements when the correct data is so easy to find.  

Facts are so 20th century.

7-11 doesn't get us in per the prognosticators. Jerry Palm had us on the bubble on Friday. We have to go 3-1 

 

I’ve always thought Lunardi was a bit better than Palm at projections. Lunardi would have us in at 7-11.

but if we lose that 1st SEC Tournament game, then…

OU is in Lunardi’s field right now at 4-10 in conference play and #51 in NET. The bubble sucks more than usual (but yes, let’s expand the field!).

7-11 will probably get Texas in assuming our NET stays around 40 (currently #38). Yay.

I got it at 2-2 as best case scenario, 1-3 as most likely, and 0-4 as crashed out.

at some point the committee has to punish teams that have good metrics and shitty records. the year we won the NIT we finished the regular season with a 16-16 record but a kenpom ranking of 27 (jesus fucking christ shaka 🙄). the committee made the easy choice that year to leave out a .500 overall team, but it won’t so cut and dry this year assuming a 2-3 finish to the season. still, i would guess that right now we need three more wins to get in. 

look at this dumb shit from the NIT season:

finished the year with a top 30 offense and top 30 defense, yet went 16-16 in the regular season. shakablah.

Don't you think Coach K would have ended up leaving, though?

Better a coach leave because he is too good for us than a coach leave because we fired him for failing miserably.

I wouldn’t be surprised if we don’t see a “we’ve mailed it in” attitude from this team the next four games.  I’d just like from them to find it in them to at least beat OU.  

Whatever CDC has up his sleeve, he needs to do it quickly.   If the coach he has on the radar ends up being a tourney team which I would think he should be, he needs to pull the trigger the day after his team exits the tourney.   But RT certainly needs to be dismissed after the OU game.

I don't know. I wouldn't mind saving Moser's job. He's slowly strangling the life out of that program.

CDC's MO seems to be to pull the trigger only when the replacement is ready
