March 19, 20196 yr If you're not pumped for this game then you're simply not a real Texas basketball fan.
March 19, 20196 yr 27 minutes ago, Bitterwhiteguy said: You should be prepared for a lot of threes for two reasons: 1) SDSU pushes tempo so there will likely be more possessions 2) SDSU's pedestrian-level defense is built around packing in the paint even at the expense of allowing open threes. There are 7 teams in all of D-I who allow a larger percentage of attempted threes than the Jackrabbits. If Jase and/or Ramey are on tonight, they could crack 30. The question is if Texas allows Daum and/or Jenkins to do the same. Appreciate your feedback. However, if Texas shooters had been “on” with any consistency this season, we’d be discussing an NCAA berth and Shaka wouldn’t be a dead man walking. Sadly (or disgustingly based on point of view), I don’t see much reason for optimism. I think their time to fish or cut bait passed.

March 19, 20196 yr which one got snubbed by Texas and will have the game of his life? Edited March 19, 20196 yr by UTEX_ME

March 19, 20196 yr I'm skeptical of Shaka's longterm prospects at Texas, but by hanging an NIT banner he could leave an indelible legacy at this school.

March 19, 20196 yr 5 hours ago, Pancho Negro said: They really thought it (4 quarters) would pass 2 years ago. I think it has a good chance this year, but I've been wrong before. The men's side has been slow when it comes to rules progress of the game compared to women. The women's rules/regulations are starting to mirror the NBA. They men really want to go that way too, but they've got too many old school folks running the show who don't want to see it changed. I was explaining the basics of time periods for basketball to a 7 year-old boy who was confused. I'm not sure if I helped or exaggerated his confusion when I told him: From when you start playing basketball at the YMCA at next year or the year after, all through middle school, freshman/JV/Varsity basketball in high school, and in the NBA, basketball is played with 4 quarters. For some reason, in college, and only in college, basketball is played with only 2 halves. I have no idea why, just remember that college has 2 halves and every other level of basketball that exists is played with 4 quarters. QUESTION: Does anyone have a clue why college ever went to "2 halves"?
March 19, 20196 yr I'll have 2 TV's going..... LHN: Texas vs Arky @6:30pm ESPN: Texas NIT 🏀 @ 8:00pm Hook'em 🤘

March 19, 20196 yr I went from attending 80% or more of our home games for more than 25 years to canceling my season tickets after Shaka's second season. I haven't been to a game in years. I'll be there tonight, row two across form the UT bench, using my incredible mentalist powers to convince Shaka that he really doesn't want to work here anymore. The entire goal is to have Shaka's inner monologue saying this to him by the end of the night. Edited March 19, 20196 yr by Goo Punch

I just want to be there tonight to see how our guys respond and how they come out play. I want to see it for myself, especially if it happens to be Shaka's farewell game at Texas.

March 19, 20196 yr 1 minute ago, kingkoopa6 said: Yea he out out According to Kyle Boone at CBS Sports he gettin drafted #8 overall Another Shaka success story!
March 19, 20196 yr I wonder if we had this many future pro players on the 86 Texas roster, last time we made the NIT. There’s two draft picks on this team, and then 2-3 d-league/europe players. Understandable why we can barely match that legacy.
March 19, 20196 yr 56 minutes ago, LTtxfan said: So for the game tonight are you considering...... Those fans must be for Sack-ramento.
March 19, 20196 yr Should use multiple dodge balls instead of single bb. Maybe turn the rim 90 degrees Aztec style.....that would be interesting....and cut the hearts out of the losers including the coach , at center court.

Looks like we are 8 point favorites, which makes the Jackrabbits +315 to win. I think the best bet might be SDSU team total over 73. They average 84 ppg, and you know they will come out a lot more fired up about this than Texas. If they go down, they will go down jacking up 3's Edited March 20, 20196 yr by Blotto

March 20, 20196 yr Horns down 10-0 in the 3rd inning vs piggies.... CDC may want to offer free seats for NIT game for any baseball fans who are at the Arky game. Just use stub from baseball game for free entrance to basketball game.....
