    What about his recruiting has you worried? He currently has the #9 HS class, pulled in a very good portal class, and convinced Disu, Mitchell, and Hunter to return for another season. Recruiting is the least thing I am worried about with Terry. We lost more talented players last season than we will this season, and will have a bigger group of program guys with multiple seasons returning as opposed to Anamewke and Cunningham as the only surefire guys returning from last year's roster.

    Gerry thinks Texas should move on from Hunter and Mitchell to try to bring in more guys with upside offensively from the portal.

    His roster build this year has been his biggest negative. If Tre Johnson is not outstanding next season, they may miss the tournament. 
     

    Beard built an elite 8 roster in two seasons. RT will be starting over from scratch in his year 2

  2. RT saved this season and will produce the minimum expectation by making the tournament. 
     

    That’s not going to get him fired in year one or two, but is not the expectation most fans have for the program moving forward (especially with the resources UT has). Most fans don’t see a foundation for much improvement next season with the expected personnel losses, but things can change quickly with the portal. Many fear we will be in the same position or worse next year, and nothing accomplished so far has changed that perception.

    No clue about your fucked up aunt, but I joined the VFW when our local bar went tits up and the VFW canteen was the closest watering hole to my house.

    Do they have BINGO?

  4. RT has had a nice turnaround from the start of the season to go from out of the tournament to not in the last 4 in. 
     

    Combined with last season, this is a solid start for RT at Texas. If he builds on this, the sky is the limit, if he repeats this the next two seasons, does he get an extension?

    Ah good a point for Hülkenberg 

    KMag driver of the day. Single-handedly took his team from 10th to 6th in the constructors race.

    I've lived less than a mile away for over a decade and I have a) never once eaten there and b) completely forgot it exists.

    Same for the Parmer Lane location. Had to check was still in business before posting.

    It is. The increases shown track the national trends for the same period. In other words, Austin wasn’t an outlier one way or the other.

    For comparison Chicago went from 1,905 - 2,152 homicides over the same time period. An increase of about 13%.
