Horns have played relentless defense. RT really has them hustling. 
Horns should be favored against Miami

As the top remaining seed, they should be favored to win it all. One game at a time, though.

This season they’ve beaten K State, Gonzaga & Creighton.  They are very capable of winning three more games but as you said, one game at a time.

Miami will be our toughest game of the season.

I like that the game is in Kansas City, familiar site of the Big 12 Tourney.

The seeding of teams and who's favored hasnot worked out to well this year.

Agreed. They are loaded.

How good would K. St. be if Pack had stayed?

 Well Texas has lost 8 games this season, so hopefully Miami won't be tougher than those games.

This is great news. I hope we are able to keep the assistants too.

[Sirhornsalot]

The first big recruiting job for RT will be getting Disu to stay another year. He's not NBA ready, but he may not know that. Lets hope we can keep him. Dude was really starting to develop.

In other news, we are very interested in the below player (portal) from Rice. He's ours if we offer. Kid lit us up when we played them.

Look for Texas to watch for Seth Lundy to enter the portal. We are interested.

He earned it. Congrats!

I think a lot of the weasels at sports websites that trashed Del Conte owe him an apology. Especially DICK Vitale. This agreement had to be in place already.

It was agreed to and postponed by RT because he felt the players thought they were playing for his job.

Agree that Vitale should apologize. That was pretty unfair to CDC.

I hope RT can keep the rest of the staff together.

Still wondering what might have happened without injuries to Disu and Carr. 
coulda, shoulda, woulda but not the same team without those guys

[Sirhornsalot]

We're all in on this guy

 

[Sirhornsalot]

Someone we might take a look at

Disu was the big injury. Hunter and Rice could have covered for Carr.
