BWilk55 Posted March 14 Report Share Posted March 14 4 hours ago, 83Dee said: Here’s a random question…. Some of these may be out of eligibility, but COVID makes it murky… what are the odds these players are Longhorns next year…. Assuming Terry is the coach: Hunter Mitchell Carr Morris Disu Biship Cunningham Both 5 star recruits signed Hunter has only played 2 years and will likely be back. Mitchell has an NBA decision but scoring less than 5 points a game makes me think he'll be back. Morris should also be back as he likely isn't an NBA pick right now. Disu does have 1 year left, he has played 4 years but one was the covid year. He was honored at senior day but that doesn't preclude a return. Carr, Bishop have played 5 years and exhausted eligibility including the covid year. And yes, Brock has said he will be back. I think the roster will look like G Tyrese Hunter, G Arterio Morris, F Dylan Mitchell, F Brock Cunningham and maybe F Dylan Disu. Plus the 2 incoming freshmen 5 stars and 2 redshirt freshmen (Alex Anamekwe and Rowan Brumbaugh). Will probably need a few portal additions to round it out but could be pretty solid. 83Dee, Sirhornsalot, Coot and 1 other 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's going to be a young team next year unless Terry portals in some upper classmen. Need to hit the portal anyway, that's only nine scholarship players at best for next year.

That will be interesting to see when they come to Austin in a couple of years. I do wonder if the 2 assistants that have followed him that are going to want to stay or follow him to Ole Miss. Do think that Ogdon stays and Terry stays unless for some reason CDC has someone different in mind of being the HC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think any of them leave. Unless for some reason Terry didn't get the HC job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stated earlier this season they were playing good ball and got the typical "f aggy" responses. Buzz is a good coach and has them ready to play. Yea, we got no favors from the committee. Both possible opponents in the 2nd round made their conference tournament finals. We need to show up and be ready to play. Totally agree. How a team like aggy that got the #2 seed in the SEC and to their finals is only a 7th seed, but Kentucky gets a higher seed as does Tennessee, who lost their best player and lost what 5 of the final 8 games gets a 5 seed. This committee did the big 12 and other teams no favors in the seeding. I believe the 8/9 and 7/10 games are probably at best toss up games. tejasrulz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ogdon having played there and Terry having spent a lot of time in Austin as a player and coach as well. IT guys have said Terry's dream job is at Texas.

Big Daddy Cane Posted March 15 Report Share Posted March 15 Filled out my brackets at work. I really wanted to pick Texas to go further, but I just couldn't do it. Picked them to get to the Elite 8. If they get past a tough 2nd round, I think that's realistic. Sirhornsalot 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexCoyote Posted March 23 Report Share Posted March 23 Everyone is bashing Texas for not already giving Rodney Terry the job. CDC is getting paid the big bucks to make the decision. Either he is going to hire someone else (home run hire) or he is going to wait until the season is over. Dick Vital saying Texas is showing “No class” by not giving him the job. His ass isn’t on the line to make the right decision. Dick Vital was gushing about Shaka too and that didn’t work out. It’s not easy at Texas to make these decisions. New stadium, he’s got to make the right call. Rodney Terry might be the right call but taking a little while longer to decide seems ok to me. We’ll know soon. Man hate the way the women’s team got routed. I know they have had some injuries but man that last game they were never in it. They’ll be alright but alright but hope Vic can use the portal for help. Need to get some pressure off Rori. hornag, Eastexhorn and Coot 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BWilk55 Posted March 23 Report Share Posted March 23 A few keys for Texas-Xavier: Xavier only rotates 6 players (only 6 players avg more than 8 minutes - 2 that do are currently hurt). Can we get them in foul trouble early? We have 9 that avg 12 minutes or more. Xavier does not defend the 3 ball well. Can we make 40% or more against a bad 3 pt defense? They do have a 7 footer that may slow us down a bit down low or give Dylan Disu trouble. Driving to the hoop and draw a foul or kick out for the 3 may be our best approach. They shoot decently from 3, we will have to lock in on defense and have a plan for their 7 footer down low. hornag, Big Daddy Cane and Sirhornsalot 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RT asked that the agreement be postponed until the season's end. The reasoning seems to be that the players think they're playing for his job right now.
