in college FOOTBALL the team with more talent usually wins...in college BASKETBALL the team with better coaching can beat the team with better talent, thats really what makes March Madness Thats what we saw last night, there probably isn't a kid on ACU who could break into the lineup at UT, but the Horns were outcoached by a team that showed more heart and guts, and the go to guys on the Horns failed to show when the team needed them the most. Lets face facts Shaka Smart has been coaching on his past reputation, he has gotten away with collecting a check from UT because TBH basketb7 points -
The men's swimming and diving team won their 15th National Championship this past weekend and no love? He's the best coach ever to work at Texas, bar none.

Reese has coached 43 years. In addition to the 15 NCAA titles, his Texas teams have been runnerup 12 times and third place seven times. The Longhorns have been in the top 10 in the nation for a stunning 40 consecutive seasons and have won 41 consecutive conference championships. That means in 43 seasons, 27 of them have seen a top-two finish and 34 top-three finishes. The Longhorns have won 140 event titles during that span. It is simply a dynasty.6 points -

This is true and tommyboy took it as a huge slap down and blamed Texas since Texas was the most insistent on PQ restrictions. Previously, Nebbie was operating athletically as a power conference community college. Players like Lawrence Phillips should have gone JUCO if he even qualified for that. From what I was told way back when was that Texas would not compromise on lowering academic acceptance for athletics or it wouldnt join the new conference but they were willing to vote for somethings that were less objectionable like un-equal revenue sharing (that i agreed with, FWIW); something ag5 points -

I have to disagree. You don’t win football games losing the turnover battle, neither in basketball. Texas is the best damn turnover team I’ve ever seen. Officiating didn’t cost this game. Turnovers, a poor offensive strategy and poor coaching did. This team flat out sucks5 points -
Game plan cost Texas the game, period. You have a stable of bigs that are more athletic and more talented than ACU, yet you go with a game plan that revolves around perimeter guard play. You let Brown play 1 minute the entire game. You don’t push the ball to the low post and dominate at the rim. These are basic fundamentals. And I’m a baseball guy.5 points

In the Minneapolis trial where a police officer is facing charges for shooting a male civilian there recently, BLM is setting the stage using threats against the judge, threats against the prosecutor, protesting outside the prosecutor's home for hours on end each night. Threats have been lodged against them from BLM, in the event justice should decide the shooting was justified. BLM is trying to force a preferred outcome, no matter what the evidence shows. Keep in mind these intimidation efforts began well before the trial began. So I ask you, what is the difference in BLM and the KKK?4 points -

I was just thinking about the roster this morning wondering where we stand. I’m liking the look of it so far. Still need to round it out, especially the frontcourt. Trending toward the look of a good team. I really thought this year was going to suck due to graduation and attrition. Kudos to Beard and his staff for the work they have done thus far!4 points -

If we get either of Beard or Ivey, I will be ecstatic. If Ivey coaches anything like he played – relentless, gutsy, assertive – then I'd love that hire. I think he'd be good at recruiting and good at developing. Ya'll have already heard me sing the praises of Beard, would love that hire, too. I won't be disappointed with either hire.4 points -

Shaka’s teams never look like they’re running an offense. They look like they’re just creating for themselves every play — so much dribbling. That’s why they averaged 14 turnovers a game and they always will with Shaka at the lead. If he can’t field a disciplined team with this experienced of a roster, he just can’t do it — needs to go.4 points -

If MLB really felt so strongly about it, they'd move the Braves to another city outside of Georgia. They need Georgia's TV sets. I've read the new Georgia law and there is nothing suppressive about it. Voting access was EXPANDED under that law. Voter ID? Can be obtained by ANY Georigian FREE OF CHARGE. MLB will learn the NBA way – when you alienate and insult your primary customer base, you lose customers.3 points -

I'm confused...what "half" of the team did Pierce rest? He brought in two weekend relievers, rather than mid-week guys, so it seemed to me he was trying to win the game. If you want to be critical of Pierce...perhaps suggest he improve the team by recruiting better talent...adding some "hitters" would help....3 points -

OrangeLarry and 2 others reacted to Sirhornsalot for a topic
Last year I was told there was too much on his buyout at that time to fire him, given how we aren't a big revenue generator in basketball. I was also told that this year would tell the tale. While he did win the conference tournament for the first time, that fire was just put out with a loss to Abilene Christian College. I think he's open season now. If there's a quality HC available, I'd pull the trigger if I were CDC. I might wait a couple more weeks to let things die down.3 points -
