June 9, 20232 yr Popular Post (Cross posting ... ) Morning Brew: Seven-time NBA All-Star LaMarcus Aldridge looking to join Rodney Terry's staff Chip Brown Spoiler Morning Brew: Seven-time NBA All-Star LaMarcus Aldridge looking to join Rodney Terry's staff Chip Brown — Former Longhorn basketball star LaMarcus Aldridge, a seven-time NBA All-Star, has talked to Rodney Terry about joining the staff as a special assistant, a source close to the situation told Horns247. “He has talked to us about wanting to coach,” the source told Horns247. Another source said Aldridge will definitely be involved with the Texas basketball program during the upcoming year. Aldridge attended Terry’s introductory press conference when Terry was named the head coach at Texas after leading the Longhorns to the Elite Eight this past season. Terry served as the team’s interim coach after Beard was dismissed in December. “RT’s my guy,” Aldridge said of Terry at the press conference. Aldridge was recruited to Texas by Terry, who was an assistant to Rick Barnes at the time. Aldridge, a Seagoville product, played at Texas from 2004-06, helping the team reach the Elite Eight in his final season, losing to LSU in overtime for a berth in the Final Four. Aldridge was the second overall pick in the 2006 NBA Draft by the Chicago Bulls and then had his rights traded to the Portland Trailblazers for their draft pick - LSU’s Tyrus Thomas - and Viktor Khryapa. Aldridge spent nine seasons in Portland and was named an NBA All-Star five times before moving to San Antonio for six seasons and being named to two more NBA All-Star teams. Aldridge spent 17 seasons in the NBA and averaged 19.1 points and 8.1 rebounds.
June 13, 20232 yr In case anyone is wondering, the staff is yearning, YEARNING for one more guard of high quality to enter the portal. Every day that goes by makes that look less likely. Holland really fucked them with his bullshit. Fuck that guy and his team.
June 13, 20232 yr Hopefully they are waiting for Chris Johnson to get his release and go after him full throttle. Edited June 13, 20232 yr by HtownHorn

Other than being a little undersized (which isn’t a big deal in college outside of a few matchups then can become a killer) feels like they are ok.

June 13, 20232 yr Just now, closetojumping said: The other guy then. Whichever one is the guard, fuck that guy. But fuck Holland too. Yeah, Arterio Morris was the guard from Kimball. Holland is more of an inside player. But you are correct: fuck those guys.

June 13, 20232 yr 24 minutes ago, Fud said: He's talking about AJ Johnson, presumably Yeah, that's who I meant. I was too lazy to look it up and Holland's name was ready in my head. 9 minutes ago, longhornmatt said: With only 3 guards on the roster, they just need to add the best player available whether it’s a bigger wing, a PG, whatever. Our front court players aren’t ball handlers, so just one injury to a guard puts us in a tight spot with the current roster. Ideally we’d add two more guards. There are real minutes to be had for one more, and then the second could just be a less heralded rental for depth (and so people stop including Perryman in their projections of our rotation). They are hoping for a legitimate playmaker and there are apparently a few targets but it doesn't sound like it's looking good right now. That could still change though. They'll take a guy that can eat some minutes if they have to do so.

That frame naturally intrigues when attached to a 16-year-old. He is also the son of former Pittsburgh Steeler safety Nakia Codie. The No. 39 player in the 2024 On3 150 update is excellent in the paint with a quick release off the catch. He can also knock down threes and affect the play on the defensive end. The upside here is very intriguing.

Great point and one that I actually should’ve thought of, as I’ve been in the athletic footwear industry my entire career.😅 I have no idea what the kid’s AAU Team wears, Adi, Nike, UA, etc…but this is as viable a reason as any for UDub to be included. We all know money talks.

June 22, 20232 yr Chris Jonson is choosing between Texas/Arkansas who are rumored to have big-time NIL foundations in place and Washington who just added Larry Brown historically known for buying players. It's pretty obvious what's winning this recruitment.$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.
