Another Shaka shitshow

Like the West Virginia game, Texas did what they were supposed to do and beat a bad team. Now they gets to rest up for a trip to Norman on Saturday.

 
I was at yesterday’s game, and loved the players’ energy. I had my two young grandsons with me, so couldn’t give 100% to watching. Please correct me if I am wrong.  

During the times that I had available to really focus, we had Jaxon, Ramey, and ? In. We would get a comfy 12 point lead +, and insert ?, ?, ?  OSU would start to close to w/in 6 to 8 and back Jaxon, Ramey, and ??? Would go. To bring us back to +15

Note:  Boys very interested in basketball & food, so we stayed busy!

i also thought the officials were just bad or incompetent & couldn’t tell which. Many questionable calls  

Hook em!

Yeah, over the last handful of games, you can see Shaka making an effort to Jaxson rest when he can, even when he's not in foul trouble. If Rick was still coaching this team, he would be running Jaxson into the ground with the minutes.

There's a clear dropoff from Jaxson to Jericho. However, Jericho wasn't helped by some poor passing from Kerwin when he was in the game. I will say though, Royce played some hard minutes and provided a spark for the team. If every player gave the same effort Royce gave on Saturday, I feel this season could've been different.

That said, glad the good guys could bring home a win for you and the kiddos!

This will also give Shaka a convenient excuse for another underwhelming #TexasHoops finish and season. Integrity, though...




 
I don't know what Roach keeps doing (not his first time) to violate team rules, but you'd think he'd learn by now. He has not been himself on the floor.

Fair enough, go with the ones who aren't violating team rules.

Solid senior leadership.  You would think he knows his coach is about to get canned without a solid finish to the season.  Nice maturity backing up your teammates and coach.

 
Read Roach was suspended by the school not the coach.  Not sure what to read into that fact....

 
Roach replacment scored as  well as Roach would have INMO  If Ytexas is looking for a coach, might try Houston worked in football.

 
If Texas blows a 17 point lead with 9 minutes left in this game Shaka needs to be fired in Waco. This team sucks ass at holding leads and closing out games.  Sloppy passes, crappy offensive sets, no organization when we have a lead.  Says something about coaching, poor coaching.

Craptastic set on the last play.  Run the clock down and run in and force a shot.  Too much isolation BS with this team.  Note to Shaka:  Coleman is not James Harden.
