February 9, 20232 yr Just now, Js1 said: Texas wins 80-71 That was the dumbest game I’ve ever seen. Fuck Gerlich and these refs.
February 9, 20232 yr This team should be able to win on Saturday easily without Morris. TCU is ass. Let her rest up until Ames
February 9, 20232 yr Author We will have at least 2 of the 3 refs tonight in the SEC as well. This is right around the time officials start finding out if they get conference tournaments or not.
February 9, 20232 yr 3 minutes ago, Js1 said: UConn’s streak of not losing consecutive games ended tonight. SINCE 1993! Well our loss to Marquette isn't looking as bad now, but we also lost to UConn so it may be a zero sum idk

February 9, 20232 yr "We were missing Sonya tonight who brings a lot to the table. I'm very concerned, she spent the night in the hospital, I was there early this morning and I think she's going to be fine. It's nothing major major, but obviously it kept her out of the game tonight. She'll be living with our trainer the next few days. She's day to day and it will be whenever she can tolerate it. It's something that happened last week and it's just been something that's nagging her - that's kinda where we are right now. It didn't happen yesterday in practice or anything. You hate it for Sonya, she wants to be out there more than anybody - it's her senior year" Rori made shots tonight because she's been in the gym working on it making a hundred 3's a day in practice. Rori said she's feeling confident (shooting) said she's taking more time to focus on those specifics. Vic - "Rori is going to be in trouble tomorrow because she fouled out and I'm not very happy about it" - Rori smiles... This is his hardest year for injuries in his 38 years. Vic - proud of what we did at the free throw line Shay filled in well for Sonya tonight - played 40 minutes Sonya shooting 38% from three - Shay 41% _______________________________________ Some have said the issue for Sonya is a thigh contusion from the Kansas game. - Not stated as such in the interview

That's kind of funny because she really did not want to take the first 3 she made. But then she got some confidence from making it. TCU is bad bad - we should be able to win easily without Sonya. Let her continue to rest.
February 9, 20232 yr Texas is 10 in NET, 12 in RPI and has the #8 SOS. 5-6 in Q1 games 7-0 in Q2 games We should be somewhere in the 9-13 range in tonight's reveal if the committee is focusing on NET and SOS. Considering teams head us like Utah (41), Iowa (31), and LSU (112) have some really weak schedules.
February 9, 20232 yr It's going to be interesting what happens when Morris comes back. I think she's much better being the 6th man with either Holle or Muhummad starting at the 3. 2 hours ago, Js1 said: That's kind of funny because she really did not want to take the first 3 she made. But then she got some confidence from making it. TCU is bad bad - we should be able to win easily without Sonya. Let her continue to rest. I think part of Rori's problem is sometimes she passes up good shots and tries to drive into the mid range. If they are giving you wide open 3s just shoot the ball.
February 10, 20232 yr Overall #12 seed. Nearly in line with NET SC, Indiana, Stanford, UConn LSU, Iowa, Utah, Duke Maryland, ND, Michigan, Texas Virginia Tech, UNC, Villanova, Ohio State Edited February 10, 20232 yr by Js1
February 10, 20232 yr Apparently Vic talked about the incoming freshman at the luncheon. Booker is the first, Boutilier is probably the second (she’s 6’9 you either have it or don’t) and Maul is the third. Codio may the fourth mentioned Quote Fans will love a 6'+ incoming freshman that plays like a point guard. She and her family are very excited and can not wait to join Texas next year. Another 6'+ incoming freshman will develop slowly and will spend her first several months with the track team, learning how to run, and how to run fast. But she has something you either have or do not have. A newcomer with the team (and her family) made a great decision to enroll early and receive the medical support and rehab services that would not be possible in HS. Another newcomer will not see the court before October at the earliest due to rehab, so it will take quite a bit of time for her to return to play. Therefore, it is not currently possible for Vic to evaluate her game. Also did not list Shaylee among the seniors to be honored at Senior Day (Morris, Masudi and Gutierrez) so very likely Shaylee is taking her 6th year next year Edited February 10, 20232 yr by Js1

February 10, 20232 yr 11 hours ago, Goodman said: Anything re: K. Hunter? 11 hours ago, Js1 said: Not to my knowledge. She was in the stands yesterday for the game She was probably there to support her friend Ashley Chevalier. Really don't see KH being here next year, certainly can't trust her with a scholarship.
February 10, 20232 yr 7 minutes ago, TommysTinyTowels said: She was probably there to support her friend Ashley Chevalier. Really don't see KH being here next year, certainly can't trust her with a scholarship. I also don’t think she will be here in 2023-24. That’s a scholarship we need for a Sonya Morris-type of transfer. A shooter and a ball handler. If Shaylee is back next year, our starting 5 may be: Harmon Gonzalez Booker Moore Jones/Gaston A lot of bench/combo options for the 2nd unit with Muhammad, Jak, hopefully a transfer PG/SG, Holle, Faye. Boutilier might get mop up minutes unless and until she can learn to run up and down the floor quickly. Maul will likely not be ready and Codio is a big unknown. That looks to me like 13 players with 2 open scholarships if Hunter finally departs. Hopefully a couple fifth years want a year of grad school paid for and one is a PG who just wants to backup Rori for 8-12 minutes a game Edited February 10, 20232 yr by Js1
February 10, 20232 yr 6 minutes ago, Js1 said: If Shaylee is back next year, our starting 5 may be: Shaylee is a grad transfer correct? Does she still have a year of eligibility left?
February 10, 20232 yr 1 minute ago, TommysTinyTowels said: Shaylee is a grad transfer correct? Does she still have a year of eligibility left? She does due to her medical RS year and COVID. She has 5 years to play 4 season, which she will have completed after this season, but since2020-21 didn't count, she gets 1 more year to complete her 4 "true" seasons of eligibility. 2018-19 - BYU 2019-2020 - medical RS year 2020-21 - BYU (COVID season doesn't count for eligibility) 2021-22 - BYU 2022-23 - Texas 2023-24 - extra year of eligibility due to COVID

February 10, 20232 yr Everybody of importance (other than Morris) could return next season. Texas could be unreal next year with a transfer or 2.
February 11, 20232 yr Baylor isn’t winning the Big 12 with this 0-2 week KU trying to close out Tech in LBK Edited February 11, 20232 yr by Js1
February 11, 20232 yr Is Muhammad injured now? It's weird that Mwenentanda is getting minutes before her. Are we going to have enough players to finish the season?
February 11, 20232 yr Loeb is from the Lowell Galindo school of overreacting to a close game when there’s 75% of the game left TCU can’t guard Jones
February 11, 20232 yr They can't guard Jones or Gaston. Get the ball inside. If Muhammad is a no go are we down to 7 scholarship players ?
February 11, 20232 yr Jaki just doesn’t have it. At least on the offensive end. Misses most of her shots and gets stuck with the ball in her hands too much. Wish she could be developed without these kinds of minutes.
February 11, 20232 yr Might as well keep getting Jaki minutes against this team. We might need her with all these injuries. Certainly doesn't seem like Muhammad is playing in this one.
February 11, 20232 yr Wild and criminal that Aimee Bradley’s daughter doesn’t play for Texas And we keep losing her
February 11, 20232 yr Need to stay out of foul trouble because looks like there are only 7 scholarship players available today.
February 11, 20232 yr Officials really do not like Faye. She picks up the most ticky tack offensive fouls

February 11, 20232 yr Here comes Muhammad. Weird she wasn't playing. Maybe Vic was sending a message over something.
February 11, 20232 yr 1 minute ago, Rickylovesweed said: Here comes Muhammad. Weird she wasn't playing. Maybe Vic was sending a message over something. Really strange. She plays her ass off when she's in. Jak is raw.
February 11, 20232 yr This would be a 15+ point game if these Jaki minutes were going to Muhammad. Hopefully, Muhammad is good to go in the 2nd half.
February 11, 20232 yr Surprisingly a single digit game at half. Hopefully we get some things cleaned up in the second half, particularly offensive efficiency
February 11, 20232 yr 4 minutes ago, perfectchaos007 said: Surprisingly a single digit game at half. Hopefully we get some things cleaned up in the second half, particularly offensive efficiency True but not all that surprising. Missing Morris and Muhammad are probably 2 of our top 6 players. On top of no Moore. Team is running out of bodies. Hopefully, Muhammad just has a cold or something and that's why she hardly played.
February 11, 20232 yr 8 minutes ago, perfectchaos007 said: Surprisingly a single digit game at half. Hopefully we get some things cleaned up in the second half, particularly offensive efficiency Going to guess we don’t practice a lot of offense against a triangle and 2 defense. Halftime adjustments will be key
