Another Shaka shitshow

If we are going to relegate ourselves to a certain degree of mediocrity and be content to maintain the status quo, then put some energy back into the Erwin Center by coming up with some things to energize our student base and get them out to all the home games.  Energize them to come early and in large numbers and to be loud and supportive of the program.  I am sure Del Conte can come up with some great incentives such as free admission to the first 2 or 3 thousand students to enter the arena for each game.  Move the blue hairs/grey hairs (of which I am one) and make a minimum of the first 10 rows around the arena are designated for current UT students only.  Since a buy out of several million dollars for Coach Smart is too much and basketball is not considered a high grossing revenue sport, let’s give something a try to try to energize and position the program to moving in a positive direction.  Just some thoughts, but am certain Del Conte can bring forth monumental ideas and solutions to advance Texas Basketball into a national contender.

At this point the only thing I care about basketball is that it gets the hell over so that Craig can be on the baseball call the rest of the way... although Tom and Roger have done a decent job.

At least we are one step closer to this season being over.

Yes, and Texas hoops recruits are hugely overrated and are getting bogus jumps in their rankings.

Food for thought:  bama just canned Avery Johnson after 4 seasons with a better record than Smart has at Texas.  Does bama have higher expectations of their basketball team and coach than Texas?  SMH.

I think he was owed 8 mil if let go before April, around 5 if after April?  Sounded like they were   negotiating a settlement.
