When you get a response from brando on twitter lol. Love it. Might frame it.
-
so many people losing their minds on twitter
even if we dont get beard, its fun trolling these tech fans. they have convinced themselves that tech is the greatest city of all time and no other school can even compare to tech.
i mean shit, i drink a lot of koolaid as a texas fan, but lubbock might be one of the most boring places ive ever been.

OK, fine.
You went on and on and fucking on about how much you "like" a coach you've apparently never met. When I asked why, you gave me an insipid word salad of meaningless motivational-poster nonsense. You like him because you think he's a great dude. Awesome, man. You liked how his teams played six fucking years ago, amazing. You want someone who coaches Texas basketball to succeed-- what a novel concept.
That is precisely the kind of reasoning I would expect from someone who in 2021 says they "like" Shaka Smart.
I despise him because he's a shitty basketball coach who's lingered too long and needs to be fire.
Lol ok, ill be sure to never "like" someone again until I meet them in person. Thanks for the talk, Dad.

If you want to. I got what I expected.
Which was what? Why does anyone need to explain to you why someone likes something?
What a fucking weird thing to ask someone

Why do you "like" him....?
I like his personality. I think hes a great dude. Id love to see him have success here. I love his passion. Before he came to Texas, I enjoyed the type of basketball his teams played.
Do I need to keep going?

I like Shaka as a person. Shit, I thought he was the right guy for the job when we hired him. I was beggggging for us to go after him after Rick, and we did.
However, Shaka never brought that same passion or intensity that he had at VCU to Texas. I dont remember us ever trying to use his Havoc full court press like he did at VCU. We would do it every blue moon, but it was never a staple of any team he had here.
I still like Shaka, but my biggest issue with him is the complete lack of strategy. Star player on the opposing team with 3 or 4 fouls? Dont ever attack them. Opposing team full of small guys? Dont ever feed it down low to your big men. Team destroying us in the paint? Dont ever go to a zone.
Too many times has our offense devolved into standing around and waiting for something to happen or shoot up a random ass 3 and hope for the best. Its almost like the 12 ft jumper doesnt even exist in Shakas brain. Its 3 points or drive to the hoop and hope for the best. That is literally it.
As much as I like the guy and want to see him succeed here, I just dont think I can tolerate these issues any more. Losing this game was a fucking huge reality check for me. 0 Tourney wins in 6 years is pathetic.
Not sure if we will actually dump him this year... but I cant say id be sad if we did.

this.
danny white led the boys to 3 consecutive NFC title games but he is not in the ring of honor and never will be. in hoops, a conference tournament trophy is nice, but winning the league ranks higher, and both are on par with an E8 appearance.
shaka just won 3 games in a row (hold it, checks notes) sorry, 2 games with a forfeit in the middle. that barely merits an orange tower top and certainly not a full orange tower.
show me the motherfucking 2nd weekend. then show me a final 4. and even then don't even think about talking about any extension given the steaming pile of dogshit we've witnessed just this very season.
and without a title, if you want to walk, walk.
win it all, and then we'll talk.
until then, show me.
when you would rather fire your coach than win a big 12 championship lul

For all those saying Sark has turned it around.. I think even Mensa couldve gotten to a CFP with Bama's players. Not feeling this hire at all. But Im not going to be a little bitch about it come Sept 2021. Ill give Sark a chance, but nothing about this is what I wanted or envisioned if we were firing Herman.

FFS people...No fucking kidding. Thank god this person isnt in charge of choosing who we hire.

The question becomes, is Quinn leaving because he knows Tom is gone? Or is he leaving because he knows Tom is staying?
All of the "reasonable" talking heads said Tom wouldnt get fired unless we started losing recruits. Well, that time has come. Whats going to be the new excuse?

No way this game happens right? Especially with those new positives?

I was all on the Urban bandwagon, but then I read that he allowed his star players extra privileges and even turned a blind eye to grown men smoking marijuana during their personal time. Now I don’t know if the prospect of winning 5 Conference Champions and 2-3 National Championships would be worth that kind of cancer.
OMG NOT THE DEVILS LETTUCE!!!

Just checking.... This drama is because he:
altered his Instagram to be hornsless we think but aren't for sure it wasn't like that already
Twitter is like it was and still has horns stuff
and he didn't play today possibly due to an injury and the return of jwhitt
Does that cover it? Did I miss anything in this bitch fit of a mess of a thread?
