  1. john bianco is one of the great SID’s of this century and a Longhorn Legend.
  2. we cannot shoot. national ranks: eFG%- 53% (123rd) 3p%- 30.6% (255th) ft%- 66.9 (282nd) we’ve got no pg, no shooters, and no honorable mention all conference caliber big men. we’ve got swain and a bunch of disjointed “meh”. we turn the ball over too easily (we rank 299th in non-stl TO%). we also don’t force TO’s (286th defensively in non-stl TO%, 280th in stl%). make no mistake about it: this is either a middling team (NIT bound) that’s off to a bad start, or a bad team that’s off to a bad start. this has not been an encouraging first six games. it’s going to be a long season.
  3. miller was probably the best we could get, but that doesn’t make him an exciting hire. he would have been an exciting hire 10 years ago, back when he looked like one of the best coaches in america, but ever since he got busted cheating and the playing field was leveled re: paying players he’s been good-not-great. pretty much all of his success came 10+ years ago when he was cheating, and he’s made it out of the first round once since 2017. his last six teams at arizona finished ranked 19, 18, 28, 94, 19, and 29 in kenpom. his xavier teams finished ranked 15, 56, and 43. that’s one top 15 finish in almost a decade. he’s beaten his preseason kenpom rating 3 times in 9 tries since 2015. yeah, when you use his entire career resume to paint a picture of who he is he looks pretty good. but if you focus on the last decade then there’s really nothing there that says that we should expect him to equal or surpass the levels of barnes and beard at Texas. i’ve always felt that he’s going to be better than shaka and RT, but that he’ll ultimately disappointingly short of reaching any new heights, or even matching old ones.
  4. i found this to be thoroughly entertaining, and i’m hoping/assuming there’s an archive of these and that this is an ongoing feature for sky. what a way to try and take in a match. i’d go crazy.

  6. Derka is getting upset!
  7. i have a special type of loathing and contempt for these idiots, different what i have for your typical, overtly racist and xenophobic maga patriots. these people are about one degree removed from the out-and-proud maga fanatics, but they convince themselves with every fiber of their being that they are just humble, godly, patriotic americans who simply want to love jesus and their families, and they aren’t afraid to admit it, even if the woke left mob is going to attack them for it. (so brave) kill yourselves. seriously, fuck off and die. just because you didn’t personally storm the capitol doesn’t mean that you haven’t been actively supporting those who did, never mind voting into office actual nazis, and fascists, and the pedophiles that you’re so afraid of. you people go to your church, you go to baseball, go to cheerleading, go to crossfit, and you surround yourselves with a bunch of fucking avatars who are indistinguishable from you and yours, and you guys all gas each other up and feed into this idea that your wholesome conservative selves are being unfairly attacked for simply being brave enough to admit that you love god, freedom, and america. BULLSHIT. you’re the lowest maga scum, just with 30 more iq points and a couple extra zeroes on your paychecks. i’ve grown up around you, and lived among you. you absolutely have hatred and racism and xenophobia in your heart, you’re just better at hiding it. anyone with a soul and internet access would find it unconscionable to still be supporting this “conservative” movement in America. not you though. you support ICE, and pedophelia, and sex trafficking, and concentration camps, and murdering alleged criminals with no due process, and gerrymandering, and russia, and so much more. oh and btw you love to just shit all over the constitution that you claim to love but clearly know nothing about. but hey, tanner, and mason, and brynyly, and madison are healthy, well fed, tan, and popular, so that’s all you really care about at the end of the day, isn’t it? fuck you, fuck your kids, fuck your church, fuck your parents, and fuck everyone who fucks with you. you bring cruelty and terror to your brothers and sisters in christ and then you turn around and play the victim and claim to be the one who is being persecuted. fuck. you.
  8. thunder/pistons finals incoming?
  9. 10/10, no notes.
  10. a shaka smart team has trouble against the zone? whaaa????
  11. i think we need to be clear about something: that throw went over the defender’s hands, not through them. the defender didn’t screw up an int that hit him in the sweet spot, Arch layered a pass that went over the defender’s hands by about an inch, and then dropped down to his receiver in the back of the end zone. seriously, it’s one of the most impressive throws i’ve ever seen from a Texas qb. to call it pedestrian would be laughable; to say it was a bad throw and that arch got lucky is “let’s get you checked into a home because your mind is gone” levels of crazy.
  12. that throw is one that nfl pundits and scouts will point to over and over and over again when talking about how arch can make “all the throws”. that was one of the best plays/passes we’ve seen from a qb in a long time.
  13. lol wut. that’s the throw of the season. maybe if kawhi leonard was the DB you’d have a point, but he wasn’t, so you don’t. incredible throw on the run, absolutely perfect.
