Shaka being at Marquette, which is closer to his home, probably has to do more than the style of offense. All these out of state recruits were only coming here because of Shaka, and with him bring closer to their homes is perhaps leading them to bail on Texas and go to Marquette instead.
He didn't care to play hard after his freshman year for whatever reason, so the fans could care less about him after he is gone. When you don't take advantage of being a part of the Texas brand, you are very short sighted.
I didn't say we would be top two as is. My prediction was based on GB returning and getting Peavy and others from the portal. As is, we are a dumpster 🔥 team, as you said. We definitely need a good to great PG bit I am not sure where we are going to get one from.
Who is going to play point next year? Anyone but Ramey please! We haven't had a great PG in years, which most likely is the reason for our lack of tourney success. Damn, I miss players like DJ Augustin and TJ Ford.
That's a shame! I was looking forward to seeing AJ be a beast once he had regained his full strength. Regardless, we should have a very talented team that can compete for a top 2 position in the conference with good coaching.
Seeing a lot of Chris Beard related tweets being retweeted by Greg Brown makes me think he is returning. We will be a legitimate contender for the Big 12 title next year if we get Peavy from TT and get Greg Brown, Royce Hamm, AJ and Donovan Williams to return. I think AJ will be a force next year.
Not digging Mrs. Beard's referee attire. Perhaps they were in the middle of a kinky role play thing when CDC called, so she didn't have time to change?
When a man doesn't want to sleep with you, it doesn't necessarily mean he lost his sex appetite or there is something wrong with him. It usually means he found a better broad and is not into you any more despite how many times he told you he would never leave. 😂
Let's be classy about this. I am sure part of the reason Beard didn't want a counteroffer was because he wanted to return to his alma mater. Tech may not have as much resources as Texas but they were able to pull together enough to have more success than us in basketball. Have to respect that.
What CDC has done with coaching hires is nothing short of a miracle. We all knew he was a great salesman and could raise money for the much needed facilities upgrades but many of us, including me, had doubts about his ability to hire great coaches. I must say I am very impressed with his work so far!
We are reaching out to Barnes and Derka has been retained to lead the negotiations. My sources tell me Barnes wants a 5 year contract extension for every first round loss in the tourney.
