I thought the press conference was great. For Texas fans that didn't know him or his history, he touched on quite a bit and his ties to all things Texas.
Kind of odd our little history against Xavier. Penders bounced them in the Sweet 16 back in 1990 as a 10 vs 6. They returned the favor against Barnes in a 3 vs 7 matchup in the 2004 Sweet 16. That game stung and isn't talked about much. Terry besting them in a 2 vs 3 Sweet 16 matchup in 2023. This year with the 11 vs 11 play-in game.
Another Miller meeting with the committee handing us maybe our worst March Madness seed and the refs handing us maybe our worst defeat in the second round of the 2011 tourney. We squeaked by a very tough Oakland draw in the 4 vs 13 matchup. Draw Arizona as the 5 who went on to pummel Duke in the Sweet 16 and lose to eventual champ UCONN in the Elite 8 with Kemba Walker. A team we had already seen that year if I remember correctly.
