  1. Larry Bird was named Coach of the Year in 1997-98 (though point taken on how few good players make good coaches).
  2. They served brisket sandwiches in the locker room during the 4th quarter rain delay against Maryland.
  3. isn't it now going to be run by the 1883 Provision Company?
  4. Don't overthink this one. I think we can all be grateful he meaningfully recovered from a very serious condition and wish him well in his future endeavors.
  5. playing like a team satisfied with their game against Gonzaga and thought they'd waltz to the final four. Lazy in transition, poor offense, lack of focus.
  6. finally able to tune in...there was a reason I was asking about bigs depth earlier today. Glad to see we seem to be taking it in stride. Hopefully we can finish strong.
  7. appreciate the breakdown - would you say Faye is more in the traditional 5 role like Jones, comparable on defense but more limited on offense?
  8. I'm curious for your perspective on bigs depth - how much of a gap do you see among Jones/Gaston/Faye/Muhammad?
  9. Matt Miller's 7 round mock is very Texas friendly - 8 of the first 84 picks, 9 picks overall: 15. Murphy - Indianapolis 28. Mitchell - Buffalo 32. Worthy - Kansas City 54. Sweat - Cleveland 56. Brooks - Dallas 69. Sanders - LA Chargers 81. Ford - Seattle 84. Jones - Pittsburgh 240. Whittington - Carolina
  10. I still can't get over that jump ball at the end of regulation. What an incomprehensibly insane call to make in a critical spot. I am in awe.
  11. this smug, know it all announcer who has to insert himself into every single call is driving me absolutely insane.
  12. Gaston had a rough closing few minutes there. Several blown opportunities close/fumbled balls out of bounds.
  13. Blackshire might be too heavy, but it isn't because he is fat.
  14. that might be one of the most myopic and pathetic articles I've ever read. Arch isn't obligated to play the 9.95'er game and it doesn't mean a damn bit of difference for who he is as a person or player.
  15. Fair was incredible down the stretch - scored the last 13 points for Syracuse, had 32 overall.
  16. My personal favorite example of this was in fall camp 2 years ago. After one particular practice, Anwar reported that Agiye Hall had a great practice and was turning heads with his athleticism. I remember reading that - knowing that Hall had left practice about 15 minutes in never returned - and realizing just how much of the "reporting" is total conjecture and taking calculated shots in the dark.
  17. feather in the cap for the strength/conditioning and sports science folks at Texas. Congrats to Worthy. He has had a pro mentality to maximize his talent from the very first day he stepped on campus.
