Long if we need shooting. Hepa or Hayes if we need inside defensive presence. Hayes won't be put out there at the same time as Sims very much, it would murder offensive spacing. Also, Hepa can shoot better than your statement seems to imply.
November 5, 20187 yr Nothing terribly insightful to add here except that when I wake up tomorrow, it'll be basketball season.

November 6, 20187 yr Eastern Illinois is supposed to be terrible. #302 in KenPom, and something like the 7th best team with "Illinois" in its name. The spread is Texas -23.5.
November 6, 20187 yr Pumped for Texas Basketball to be back and also to see the "fire Shaka" thread bumped after the first two missed shots of the season or Texas not being ahead 35-4. Damn I love you guys, even you derka(goo punch). Ready for a great season of Bitching and moaning from the best group of asswads ever. Hook Em!
November 6, 20187 yr Author I'm still expecting a slow start with a healthy serving of clanks in front of a sparse crowd. Looking forward to Andrew Jones being in uniform, regardless of whether he plays. Haven't seen anything about Osetkowski aside from what Inside Texas reported, so I'll assume he's a go.

What do you think the starting lineup will look like with Snoop out?

I think Liddell is super raw and would be surprised to see him outside spot minutes. He's probably the boom-bust player of this signing class.

November 6, 20187 yr I know Febres has been here longer, but i ultimately ser Ramey having a bigger role at Texas than Febres. Jase needs to focus on knocking down threes and playing that role for us. Ramey will be more versatile and more valuable long term.
