March 14, 20214 yr So he thinks half of the big 12 are in the top 13 overall seeds. and if those top 16 are arranged as such because they are the regions, I like having Houston as the 2 even though it leads to Gonzaga.
March 14, 20214 yr just now finishing up the game on my DVR and getting to see the post game celebration for the first time. fucking awesome. AJ carrying Shaka halfway across the court, Matt Coleman saying he has tears of joy in his eyes, Greg Brown all wide eyed and gleeful; this is what it's all about man. fucking good for these kids man, they deserve this. and good for Shaka too. i obviously don't want him as our coach but i don't hate him as person or anything, and i know that most of his guys love him. that had to feel amazing for him to get his first championship at Texas. awesome day for these guys. now let's go win a few more! 🤘🏼 🤘🏼 🤘🏼 Edited March 14, 20214 yr by shadow_operative

March 14, 20214 yr all that ^^^ said i feel really bad for Royce Hamm. he just stood off to the side during all of the celebration and didn't participate in any of it. even when Shaka came up to him and hugged him Royce never lifted his arms to hug back. whatever had gone down between him and Shaka this year, it really sucks that it's preventing him from even enjoying this moment with his teammates. i really hope for his sake that he gets some PT in the tourney and is even able to make a key block or something. i've always liked Hamm, and felt he could have developed into a decent Big XII player in a different situation.
March 14, 20214 yr I love the win but the fact that Cade had 3 fouls in the first half and we refused to drive the ball at him in the 2nd is still a huge concern for me. Every time we get a star in foul trouble we refuse to capitalize on it. That is a problem. Edited March 14, 20214 yr by chemHORN

Every time we get a star in foul trouble we refuse to capitalize on it. That is a problem. Cade was guarding Brock for pretty much the entire 2nd half and never switched off of him when Brock set a pick for our guards. That's part of the reason Coleman went off in the 2nd half.

Did you miss his National Invitational Tournament Championship to end the 2018/19 season? This title means that Texas has won TWO straight post-season tournaments! College basketball can’t handle Shaka’s girth. 🏆🏆 #AustinTXisTitleTown
March 14, 20214 yr We cut the net down a long time ago. And still no banner on surly? Who gonna put one up?

March 14, 20214 yr Popular Post If we win it all and they don’t play the NIT this year, then we can be defending NIT and defending National champions next year.
March 14, 20214 yr I can’t get over how dominant Sims was last night. His footwork in the post was just great. A lot of the passes down to him were high risk and he came up with all of them. He looked like a grown assed man playing with boys. And despite his FT woes, he hit a few big ones.

March 14, 20214 yr Here to give credit where due. I've been a huge advocate of canning Smart (as I was Barnes before him). But all the guys definitely stepped up this weekend. Props not just to the coaches but to Coleman, Sims, both Joneses and Cunningham in particular for yesterday's win. Now let's keep it going.

If they wanted the team to see it, they should have lit it twice, once for last night, and once for their return. Edited March 14, 20214 yr by BigXII

If they wanted the team to see it, they should have lit it twice, once for last night, and once for their return. Thats just wrong. They pulled the same crap on us when we won the SWC championship in Waco in 74. We came back after the game excited to see the tower lit and it wasn't. I think we got back to campus around 1 in the morning and one of the parents was so upset as were all of us, he called maintenance and demanded that they turn the tower orange and they did.
