  1. I’m not siding with peeps that badger you, I’m just suggesting you and your tormenters take the non basketball shit elsewhere if y’all insist on an audience. And obviously, if you are experiencing mental or physical health issues, I encourage you to seek professional help and ignore/avoid stuff that complicates / worsens those issues. I’m fine with your basketball posts regardless of whether I agree with them, which I frequently do. I don’t know y’all and have no ill will towards y’all, just am fatigued with all the posts that don’t belong in this chat forum.
  2. Is there a grievance airing forum you could move this personal back and forth to? If not, can we rename this folder to make it clear it’s more judge Judy than anything else?
  3. Yessir!!! Lets go!!!
  4. Lets stomp these fucks and host a regional!
  5. I like Brock as a player but his pro ceiling is probably a couple years in the developmental league or oversees someplace in the euro league He’s kinda stuck in the no man’s land between guard and forward, which is a non issue on college but would be exposed in the nba
  6. I think Houston is losing a lot … maybe even their coach … so I’m expecting a drop with the elevation in schedule difficulty the big 12 brings
  7. A brock clone would be money
  8. We will see some of that for sure but I think weaver will spell Hunter and abmas and kind be this years rice unless we can’t find a decent wing/sf in the portal We need at least one more guard who can bring the ball up the court and a decent wing/sf who likes to play D and can hit open 3s at a decent enough rate to keep the opposition from cheating down
  9. Good work spotting the quality by the mascot
  10. I rather have a “we” guy who plays good defense and has decent basketball iq
  11. He knew things were going south at the end of the Texas run and got to head closer to home for a fresh power 5 start and salary … I doubt he feels any lingering negativity forthe longhorn nation unless we are going head to head
  12. Fuck the razorbacks… and fuck the Aggies and Sooners too!
  13. A portal guy who has played well in college a couple years or more and grown up is a better one year rental than an aloof 5 star who gives you one year of pouting, attends zero classes, and already thinks he’s league ready
  14. Starting is a bit of a red herring … I’d rather come off the bench, get 25 mins of PT, and close out a game than start both halves and get 10-15 mins A third guard will get plenty of minutes next year and could well start a few games.
  15. He shaved the beard?
  16. In fairness, though improved over the dark ages of recruiting coverage, those ratings are somewhat subjective and they cannot fully account for factors like player growth/improvement, competition, coaching plans that might not be the best fit for a player, and environment/personnel conflicts The portal different between 5 and 50 can be deceiving … depends on what you are looking for I guess and who is doing the rating
  17. Perryman gets anything more than 90 seconds of blowout time and a lot of guys he is guarding will have career games
  18. Rebuild with several new players not familiar with system and new coach with questions as to how well he can do with his own roster and coaching style Lack of PT and development of 5 star recruits The theme that Terry was basically surfing Beard’s wake… which lost steam as Terry kept the team on track The theme that assistants no longer on the team were “running the offense/defense” The theme that Texas has a gluttony of riches and resources that at times makes players lax, focused on $ over hard work, and distracted from just winning games Disclaimer: I don’t agree with many of these
  19. So damn smooth and focused… will be missed
  20. Lets get some crooked numbers in the R column this inning
  21. Just like a red light does a whorehouse
  22. My vote is no, with the caveat that giving a walk-on quality player a scholarship to fill up the spots doesn't count.
  23. That’s a wet dream until we see what is on the roster. Even with a couple decent to good portal transfers this team won’t sniff a 1-4 seed … way too much turnover… with maybe three strong portal transfers (if they even exist) and Hunter and Disu back, we might have a shot at a 4 seed and top 3 conference finish … but right now a tourney 8 seed and top 1/2 conference finish would be a success
  24. Any coach competing for a portal guy with RT will absolutely point that out
  25. Chris Beard was on the verge of turning Texas into a monster. Anyone who thinks RT will be as successful as Beard COULD have been are not worth debating. Beard definitely has the higher ceiling, which approaches dynasty level. That said, one is here and the other isn't, because Beard despite all of his salesmanship and coaching prowess... is a moeran. Let's also all remember that Beard was 65-38 in his last 4 seasons (63.1%). Granted, it looked like he had it going in 22/23, but there are no guarantees. And yes, Terry has a career 0.530 record, but that includes two major rebuilds at historically bad teams. His last 3 years at Fresno he was 66-34 (66.0%). He won't be a 0.500 coach at Texas. I would bet my retirement on it. Next year will be much rougher than this year due to all the roster turnover… regardless of who was the coach… if Terry can get some good portal value and put a competitive, hard nose team on the floor next year, he could well have a good run at Texas
