That's what happens when you let the emotional crowd force a HC hire.
Love Terry, but CDC should've put his foot down and did what was best for the program.

At this rate, six conference wins may be the ceiling for this team.
Things have the potential to get real ugly if Baylor beats us soundly on Saturday.

Yesterday was supposed to be a bounce back game. I’m starting to have concerns for RT right now.

UCF outrebounded us 37-22 with multiple offensive rebounds in the 2nd half. We were turrible on the boards, clear lack of hustle!

I normally love to be right but this is a case I wished I’d been wrong…..but I wasn’t.

I'm not so sure parting ways was the right decision. As usual with today's society, simply making an accusation makes someone guilty in the eyes of the masses (which is BS). There was a retraction from the accuser and no conviction. So we let the best coach in CBB walk because of (again) letting emotional reactions force decisions.
Now, he's at another P5 program like nothing happened and is winning while we have what we have.

Texas has never been known as a basketball school. Over the years a injury, coach, lose a recruit etc.has hurt. or some how ruined a season. Jinx prehaps?
And on the Horns down thing, Win the game and they will be easier to take. Always nice to point at the scoreboard.

It seems like I cut my teeth with Texas being elite in football, baseball, women's basketball.... and mediocre in men's basketball. Who says history doesn't repeat itself?
I am curious about how CDC might be able to change this. ADs in the past seemed more focused on football only but CDC does not seem content with any sport on campus being anything other than elite. Basketball was well on its way with Coach Beard until his off the court issues derailed that.
I think CDC will do what is necessary to get basketball to the top and if RT continues to flounder, CDC will look to hire the best coach he can to win championships at Texas.

I think the coaching candidates available will also play a role as to what will be done. For example, if Billy Donovan gets fired by the Bulls and is interested in the job, CDC has to give that serious consideration, especially if we finish 4-14 to 6-12 in conference.
If we don't make the NCAA Tournament and Donovan is interested, it's a no-brainer. But I'd first see if Jay Wright is interested (I know he's a pipe dream). Might as well try.

Maybe the Baylor starters have Covid?
Because "We're Texas"!
