  1. These championship NIT moments are what strong teams and men are made from, when we are back in the same position next year in the CBI, we will have the confidence to stare down any undermanned mid major on our way to the crown. I say we keep him, imagine hanging banners in back to back years in 2 out of the 3 college basketball tournaments. Sign me up!

  2. Wandered into the politics forum for the first time ever and dear god, I was warned it was bad but I wasnt expecting this...

    Lots of people appear to have pinned their hopes and dreams on Trump being a treasonous mastermind, despite logic and common sense overwhelmingly suggesting he wasnt...

    Im a libertarian with no dog in this fight, but come on, it was obvious from day 1 the guy was not a Russian agent, he won because he was a nationalist and Hillary lost because she was a globalist... use your head

    Fu piece of crap. If these kids want at least one ,more chance to put on a jersey and play, then thats their decision. I hope that the next time you work really hard for something, you get fucked.

    Kinda confused here, I never advocated for them not to play...

    Can we not do the revisionist history around Rick Barnes his last few years? Texas basketball was flat out bad his last couple years, and if you watch our tournament game against Butler we had trouble getting the ball past half court, his time in Austin was clearly over. Shaka sucks, and Rick is doing a great job now, but don't pretend Rick was great in his last couple years.

    I never said that

    NIT has some badass rules 

    https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/nit-bracket-2019-tournament-schedule-dates-times-locations-32-team-field/

    The NCAA playing rules process operates on two-year cycles, rule changes can be approved this May, and could be in effect for next season. There will be four rule modifications for the 2019 tournament:

    • The 3-point line will be extended by approximately 1 foot, 8 inches to the same distance used by FIBA for international competition (22 feet, 1.75 inches). 
    • The free throw lane will be widened from 12 feet to 16 feet, consistent with the width used by the NBA.   
    • The shot clock will reset to 20 seconds after an offensive rebound instead of the full 30 seconds.
    • Team fouls will reset at the 10-minute mark of each half for the purpose of determining free throws and one-and-one free throws will be eliminated. 

     

    Oh boy, we fucked, Shaka will have them shoot 30 3-pointers and we will hit 4 of them

  6. I want to lose, please let us get blown the fuck out by a motivated team on our homecourt in front of 300 fans wearing paper bags over their heads.

    Imagine if a ton of fans showed up with brown paper bags and Shaka is not our standard posters. That would send a message.

    Rick Barnes made the tourney 16 out of 17 seasons as HC. Shaka has made it 2 out of 4 with a losing season and a .500 season. An interim AD had no business giving that fraud a lengthy and lucrative extension.

    He made the tournament though!!! What an accomplishment!!! The extension was all about optics. 

    His predecessor was 100x the coach he was. Please fire him or the school will lose more in donations and garbage attendance than they would even save.
