Maybe let's get there again before we joke about the programs that have brought us more titles than all of the others combined, or nearly so. That had a lot more to do with how high school basketball was handled in this state for years up until the late 80s and/or early 90s. For the longest time the state had little to no AAU infrastructure due to arcane rules the U.I.L. placed on high school athletes attending summer camps (ie participating in AAU). Therefore Texas high school bball talent was isolated from the rest of nation and didn't have access to the same level of development as what was seen around the rest of nation. Due to Fonde and the pro am talent it brought to area, Houston area high school basketball managed to get some level of development throughout the 70s and 80s, but it couldn't support the entire state. There's a reason we only really started to see an explosion in Texas high school basketball talent around the turn of the millennium. It took a full decade to bring the state's AAU basketball infrastructure to a level that was competitive across all grade levels. In just the last 3 Final 4s the state has seen 3 different schools participate. Over the next decade or 2 we're going to routinely see multiple D1 schools in the state not only have multiple appearances in the Final 4, but win championships as well. And I have no doubt UT will play a major part in all of that.

You had pros, UH kids and high school kids there playing every day in the summer. Most high school bball coaches were just coaches who didn't coach football. The UIL sucked big time. One other comment, back in those days there was only minimal support from the AD for hoops. Our coaches basically ran the program on crumbs.

I know the “why” part of its weaker performance than what we would otherwise expect from one of the school’s main programs. And I love watching the current guys play. I was mocking the notion that we should be scoffing at one of the greatest athletic empire in college sports history with regard to S&D.

Gerry also reported last night that Johnson likely signed at the end of the early signing period. Just to clarify "brother" - they are not related. AJ Johnson says Jalen Green is like a brother to him. Rockets Star Jalen Green Joins 'Little Brother' on Longhorns Recruiting Visit Green skipped the collegiate route to play for the G League Ignite, but he recently got to see what the recruiting process would've been like. Zach Dimmitt Sep 14, 2022 9:00 AM EDT Houston Rockets star Jalen Green made a trip to Austin this weekend to support class of 2023 guard and Donda Academy product, AJ Johnson. Johnson, a five-star recruit and the third-ranked guard in California per rankings from 247Sports, was on his official visit to the University of Texas this weekend. Green accompanied Johnson, while the two took a tour of what the Texas Longhorns and coach Chris Beard have to offer. Johnson considers Green, who was the second overall pick in the 2021 NBA Draft, to be an older brother, though the two are not related. In addition to Texas, Johnson has received interest from other programs like Kansas, UCLA, Creighton, N.C State, USC, LSU, and more. Johnson wasn't the only one to bring NBA talent with him on his visit. Andrej Stojaković, a 2023 forward from Jesuit High School arrived in Austin on Friday and was joined by his father and former NBA player, Peja Stojaković, who was one of the league's best 3-point shooters during his 13 years in the league. Should Johnson choose Texas, Green will only be a three-hour drive away from watching his "little brother" in action in the Big 12, one of college basketball's most competitive conferences.

November 18, 20223 yr I assume that Carr, Allen, Rice, and Bishop are all done with eligibility after this season. And then you have the possibility of Mitchell and/or Morris blowing up and entering the draft. I'm guessing that Disu could have another year if he wants it. So presumably we should have somewhere between 4-6 spots open on next years squad?
November 18, 20223 yr Way more than that. Right now we play 9 guys and that’s probably what we will do all year. I’d guess at least 7 and there’s a chance all 9 could leave. I’m just hoping we get one more year out of Morris.
November 19, 20223 yr The guys that can come back listed in order from most likely to least likely Anamekwe, Brumbaugh Cunningham Morris, Disu Hunter Mitchell From recruiting we have Holland and likely Johnson. Texas missed on Stojakovic and Lath Edited November 19, 20223 yr by HtownHorn
