Texas Basketball 2022-23
This is why having a raucous crowd and an actual home court advantage is extremely important. The Erwin Center and the lack of a consistently intimidating home environment handicapped us in year's past. We need that environment for the Kansas St's and TCU's of the world just as much as we need it for the KU's

Texas WR/TE Passing Offense Talk
Sark needs to hand over play calling duties to Milwee or Marion or some one else. He routinely forgets or doesn't return to concepts that give the offense success early in the game. In game after game this year our 2nd half motion and presnap movement would be reduced by 50 to 75% compared to the 1st half. Our 2 back offensive was the most explosive personnel grouping for us on the year yet it was nowhere to be found last night. We get an explosive play out of Casey Cain motioning into the backfield and then never seen anything like that again for the rest of the game. We motion Brooks out into the slot leaving an empty set and Washington's D spazzes and leaves Gunner Helm wide as open for an explosive play yet we never go to anything resembling that concept again. We motion Worthy into the slot which matches him up on a safety and of course he drops it, unfortunately Sark reached his quota for concepts that confused the defense and eliminated it from the playbook. This type of shit was a constant theme all season. Sark game plans his ass off to start a game and then never plays the hits again for the rest of the game.

Penix has like 500+ passing attempts this season and has only been sacked 5 times. Their pass blocking is really good.

UT's next basketball coach - discussion/debate [Sean Miller Hired]
The only thing that will hurt the league a bit with UT and OU leaving is no longer having a round robin schedule where everyone plays each other twice. I guess next year ( our last year in league) we'll go back to playing KU or a few of the teams only once.

Michigan is still suffering from a pre-NIL psychology of not wanting to "lower themselves" by paying athletes. Their NIL infrastructure is nowhere close to what it should be.

Right now, in my eyes the Texas basketball program is analogous to LSU football circa 2001 in Saban's 2nd year. At that point LSU routinely sent loads of talent to the NFL and despite some recent success the ridiculous level that the program would reach over the next 20 years wasn't exactly predictable to anyone back then. However, all the necessary ingredients required for their coming success was already present within the program and state at that time. By that same token for Texas basketball, all of the previous hurdles preventing schools from the state from having sustained college basketball success have been slowly removed over the past couple of decades. Everything from instate skill development and talent busting at the seams, to newly established NIL rules reducing the reluctance of some schools from getting too heavily involved in the basketball recruiting muck. I really don't think it's clear to most Longhorns fans outside of maybe the most ardent basketball aficionados how good Texas high school basketball is compared to the rest of the country right now. Having a guy like Beard (hopefully keeping him if we can) at the helm of the program at this moment in time is a godsend in terms of taking advantage of all that is available for building and sustaining a championship level program.

Two of five consensus #1 high school bball recruits have come from the state of Texas. 2020 Cade Cunningham 2024 Tre Johnson. I meant to quote your other post but Texas bball recruiting has passed Texas football recruiting in terms of elite talent production.

Whatever we do I want an offensive specialist as a head coach. There's no way we're going to get another master marketer on the same level as Beard so in lieu of having a salesman in the same vein as him we're going to need a style of play that sells itself to the fans who need shiny objects to be all in with basketball. Musselman would probably be the closest thing to the salesman that Beard is with the added bonus of having an offensive focus, but it may be tough to lure him away from Arkansas. If he is a no go then I'd like to kick the tires on the dude at Arizona to test whether he'd be interested. There was a time where it would've been blasphemous for Arizona's head basketball coach to leave for UT, but with the way the tables have turned in basketball recruiting circles with the state of Texas probably have the best high school basketball talent in the country I think it's a reasonable possibility.

Dallas Cowboys 2022 Regular Season Thread: Fuck Jerry Jones
Moore still has that Boise St in him. He has some sort of fealty to calling trick plays that don't even build off of previously called plays. I noticed the same thing with Harsin in his lone year as the Longhorns OC. On your second critique it's similar to some of the issues us Longhorn fans see with Sark, Moore tends to not build counters off of his plays and tightens his grip and starts to become less diverse in his play calling if teams effectively adjust to what he's doing.

You can sense their somber tone when they do their halftime and postgame analysis, especially with Rob and Alexi.

Man this sucks!!- NCAA Basketball 2022-23
I agree with SLX. I like the sum of Arizona's components better than ours. Of course that's partly due to my bias being tilted towards skilled offensive teams. Our defense is orders of magnitude better than theirs, but they have a lot of players who are extremely efficient at putting the ball in the basket and clearly have the potential to be one of the four #1 seeds at the season's end.- Texas Basketball 2022-23
Every other year Courtney Ramey shot fairly well from 3. His freshman year he shot 38% and then he swung down to 31% his sophomore year and back up to 41% his junior year. Last year he shot 35%. Too bad he didn't come back for his 5th year as he's shooting 50% right now on his typical up swing year.- If BaD Radio isn't on from 3-7 p.m. ...

Yeah, prior to the portal Saban was recruiting in the realm of 15 to 20% more scholarship players than most teams do the constant roster turnover he created with medical redshirts, greyshirt, and an assortment of other classifications he used.- Deion Sanders "Coach Prime" Now At Colorado
Zimmer was an analyst on Deion's JSU staff and Zimmer's son or nephew was a coach on the staff. Pretty sure eventually bringing him on as a DC was always part of the plan.- If BaD Radio isn't on from 3-7 p.m. ...

This is a reasonable take, but given their history of WTF personnel decision I'm unwilling to give them the benefit of the doubt until something concrete is available.- Dallas Cowboys 2022 Regular Season Thread: Fuck Jerry Jones
You're not exactly the guy I expect to see a fair and impartial analysis on Cooper from. And as the above proves you're living up to those expectations. Not a single proven accusation in the bunch. - Grant Wahl drops dead
