December 13Dec 13 What sucks is that we're not even to conference play, and I feel like "Well maybe after a total rebuild we will be where we want to be...."

December 15Dec 15 figured i’d x/post this to the appropriate thread. it’s become apparent to me that, for whatever reason, CDC doesn’t give a shit about men’s basketball. maybe the BMD’s don’t either so there’s no pressure on him, but when you look at how he’s approached his hires of other sports vs men’s hoops he just clearly doesn’t care. he kept RT when he could have gone after any number of young, qualified coaches (and don’t tell me we *had* to keep RT and just crush our program, because no we did not), and then after RT is gone he makes a comfort hire that he’s been wanting to hire for years. just zero ambition, and apparently very little pressure from the BMD’s to perform any sort of real, honest coaching search where we truly went and scoured the nation to find the best candidate. again, oats, hurley, golden, otzleberger, lloyd, may, etc, etc were all recent hires that didn’t blow anyone away when they were made, but they were great hires. same goes with mccasland, mccollum, byington, kelsey, and more. there might be a shortage of marquee names, but there’s obviously no shortage of great coaches out there who would love to coach at Texas. we just didn’t go searching for any of them. it’s fucking terrible.
December 15Dec 15 There are some monster good teams out there are we certainly aren't it. I'm figuring we are still one or two coaches away. Just because it feels that way.
