    Yep.  Nobody better at making adjustments than Shaka Smart.

  • Blanks.... Mays..... Wright Went to the Elite 8 game at Reunion Arena in 1990.... Freakin' Barnhill West. Texas lost 88-85..... BMW 1989-90 is still my favorite 🏀 team that I ever saw play a

I'm laughing at dumbass announcers thinking this game was over at 19-0.

Officiating has been kinda whack, too

When you’re jacking up 3’s with abandon then you’re not going to get many calls.

We stopped looking like the Golden State Warriors from 3 and lo and behold, we still suck,

Well, for most major conference teams playing at home, it probably is. (Response to dcar in Post 205.)

Coleman has 3 fouls already.

How the f#$% does Coleman already have 3 fouls??  

Such Bullshit Basketball....

18, 3 point shots... and 10 inside the 3 point line

I’ve seen pimple faced nba2k basement dwellers with a better understanding of offense and matchups

True, but they've only attempted three more 2-point shots than Texas. And a couple of the calls were solid blocks, plus that curious offensive foul on Ramey.

Not blaming the refs. Just noting they are about as bad as our shot selection.

We are absolutely lost now

we are lost all the time sometimes we just happen to make a few shots in a row.  We have no capability to pressure the defense.  watch how we swing the ball. especially when we reverse/replace to the corner.  80% of the time it looks like we never practice it.

Try 8 year olds playing at the YMCA.

Best D against Texas for how many years now? Pack the paint, sag on the perimeter, and encourage Texas to shoot from BTA.

If we make 'em more than we miss, we win. If we don't, we don't. And we usually don't.

Is this the 2nd period???


I always get confused in the post season. If it’s tied after 3 is there another or straight to penalty shots.

Its embarrassing that we can't get the ball in down low.

Lighting it up again from 3 again and better stay hot

Hard to get it down there when there are 4 guys ready to shoot at the three point line and only one guy inside the three line.

You can see individual possessions where they have a clue, but there's no consistency at all. If they're not draining 3s, it's ugly.

We don't even try. Hamm rolled after a screen and was all alone in the blocks and Ramey wouldn't even look his way.

So our gameplan was to jack up threes, I guess.

Agree.... But besides DO, none of the bigs left for Texas are worth a shit offensively!

Wonder why isn’t there some prominent Texas school named Jackrabbits?  We got lots of big ass Jackrabbits in Texas.  Heard some in west Texas even have Horns.

Yep, I yelled at the TV then said fuck it who cares

 

Also our attendance is by far the worst of all the NIT games and not even close lol

More credit to the Derkinator.

A packed Frank Erwin Center crowd watches venerated Texas coach Shaka Smart triumphantly lead the Longhorns off the court at halftime of an NIT first-round game versus South Dakota State. Texas leads, 43-35.

We shot 48% from 3 in the 1st half and I still don't feel all that comfortable. Primarily because I doubt we shoot near that well in the 2nd.

I had one run parallel to my pickup truck once for about 50 yards just to show me he was faster than my truck.  He was mocking me.  Liked Jackrabbits ever since.
