  1. Shot's fired somewhere? I ain't working for Rocket I don't think, ever...
  2. To be fair to the poster he also has horrifically bad takes about football, current events and politics so there’s a consistency on his bad hoops takes that’s laudable.
  3. Rick Barnes is a choking dog and moron in March. Izzo is the God of March madness. Rick Barnes team was down 11 or so with 6 minutes left. Michigan state currently down 11 with 5:30.
  4. I’m happy he got it back together to become a really really good coach again.
  5. Even Derka and I, his two biggest supporters, felt that way.
  6. I was hoping but not expecting a win. Didn’t think it would be this bad.
  7. Bad day so far Derka.
  8. Does it matter for me if it’s Michigan state or Tennessee that wins the national title? Do I need both of them through to the final 4 or will one of them losing today and the other winning the national title do it for me?
  9. My prediction was he either plays more than 200 games there or less than 10 before the year started and I bet on less than 10. I don’t think they have much of any interest in situationally shifting him around.
  10. Me. I said it sort of lovingly.
  11. Pitino after every move when he’s counted out. But he didn’t ever seem to have lost it like the other two did- his more personal scandal related. Calipari will be interesting to watch. He was in the Barnes and Sampson group for sure. Trying to think of anyone else going through that right now at the high major level.
  12. I would be half as happy for a Barnes title as I would be for a Texas title. I really liked and respected him. It was obviously time for him to go as things had run its course at Texas- but the way he pulled out of the tailspin he was in and built a shitty st the time TN into a national contender speaks well for him as a coach. Good luck to the Ricktator on getting back to final four #2.
  13. Most all coaches have a ramp up and a wind down where they aren’t doing that. I’m talking about how you know he’s got it rolling on one end and how you know it’s time to move on with the other. Barnes did it 4/10 during one stretch at Texas but he had 2 other 5 seeds. That’s basically the standard I think we should aspire to at Texas.
  14. He will be fine out there or he won’t play out there. It’s worth trying as his defense at 2B is ass and that’s a much more important defensive position.
  15. Yall should listen to breathing orange fire to get ready. I’ve got us winning 95 +\- a couple. Andrew has us reliving 2009. He sucks. Roll with my BDE energy.
  16. When I was saying 16 were possible that was if all the guys left. Campbell and Taaffe would absolutely have been drafted. That espn mock was basically what I was calling as best possible chance. I still think Holmes, boldin and Gbenda have greater than 10% chances of getting drafted. Players were all saying 15 or more. I’m not 100% sure all our combine invites get drafted, but that’s now gone from wishful thinking to chalk scenario I think.
  17. Also I meant to say my expectations for Texas hoops for a solid season is to wear white the first weekend (4 seed line or better). Miller has done that 7 times in his career 1/2 of which was at a place inferior to Texas. I want that 60% of the time and I will feel like the program is where it should be.
  18. Chris beard is a guy I would bet on as opposed to against winning a national title here. The fact that we didn’t get Rick Barnes the 2nd now with better tourney performance is the saddest thing that ever happened with Texas hoops.
  19. He had some really good teams at AZ. Texas will spend money. He’s a good coach. Anything can happen in the tournament. It’s a B+ hire with the ability to get better. We probably won’t win a national title with him. I would say the same about almost any coach we hire. But we might win one. He’s certainly not incapable of it.
  20. Reds over, nationals under. astros over, yanks under. I think the rangers go over- even as an astros fan.
  21. Testing looked really good I thought. His tape isn’t bad. Don’t know if he’s big enough or tough enough to fill a role on special teams or I’d have him likely to get drafted.
  22. So- Gavin Holmes might have gotten himself drafted yesterday, right? Maybe? I’d move it from like 5% to 35%.
