people don’t make a big enough deal out of the fact that shaka smart used to just show up at his players’ dorms during their off time and invite himself in to hang out. imagine being 18-19, you’re a scholarship athlete at UT, and your coach is showing up at your dorm at night and then letting himself in to hang out with you and your friends, like that’s normal, or cool. shit is truly embarrassing.

the majority of great recent hires have been younger guys from smaller schools who play to a specific style, and who were not splash hires at the time. if we had simply done an actual search for the best coach we would have found someone much better and on a more upward trajectory than sean miller.

8 hours ago, Pancho said: So something has to give
Either Texas fans and donors start to pony up or people need to stop bitching about the product. You can’t say “we aren’t giving a lot of NIL to basketball” then complain when the team sucks.
CDC set the standard with his “all top 10 programs” comments, and frankly he’s mostly delivered. it’s his job to make sure that the team has the resources it needs (which we absolutely do, we just don’t want to use them), and it’s Miller’s job to coach the team. that shit does not fall at the feet of the fans, especially when neither of those guys is holding up his own end of the bargain. this is Texas Basketball, a niche sport in an international city with a million other things to do and see. you don’t tell the basketball fans that we need to give CDC and sean miller money before either of them can just do (punches the white board) their job!!!
