I know Shaka and Coleman have been tied together for a long time, but I thought there was some quote out there where Coleman said he wanted to play under a new coach.

There was no quote, just an article from Chip Brown, which you know, believe at your own risk.

He doesn’t know shit about basketball anyways...dude is just a clickbait troll. 

I don't know shit about basketball, so I listened to his podcast for a while trying to learn. I figured out really quickly that he obviously didn't know shit either.

They've been in that bucket for awhile now. I'd welcome both back, but this squad will be competitive with or without them based on who's confirmed. 

Texas doesn't need Brown now with Disu and Bishop. Matter of fact, both are probably better than Brown. 

Texas needs a couple guards and a 5.

Sims is the most important of the 3. Guy is a monster in the paint and much needed size to counter the latest transfers. 

Agreed but Texas would be perfectly fine if they added Bryson Williams at the 5 with a more prototypical 5 like Ogenda. 

Bryson Williams has more offensive game than Sims.

It's hilarious that BWG got excited over Marquette adding a guy that played 17 minutes a game at OU while he's just kind of meh on Disu and Allen. 

I think Kuath has potential but this is almost comical at this point from BWG. 

Whatever potential Kuath has will be coached out him by the 3rd Shaka practice due to missing connectivity.

Kuath looked good in 1 game against Texas and decent against Gonzaga but from what I saw the rest of the season he's extremely raw. All he is right now is a tall dude that can sit in the paint. 

There's a reason he only played 17 minutes a game. 

I would definitely take him as a back up 5 but acting like that's some type of game changing addition is funny. Maybe in 2 or 3 years it is.

Swapping Beard for Shaka seriously broke his brain.

Agreed.  I really hope Sims comes back.  The question is, can he improve his draft stock materially over where he's at now.  I really don't know.

Not a chance. He's more than 1 year away from developing a face up game or consistent FT shooting. His mechanics are in need of some major work.

So pretty much every legit player to hit the portal has mentioned Texas as showing interest at this point... almost like Shaka fucked off this cycle and there was absolute shit talent coming back...

And the amazing part is that all of these kids all want to come play for Beard...

I need you to remember the style of basketball Beard plays. We'll win games, but this ain't Zaga putting teams to the fucking sword.
