Missouri 67, Texas 66: Good, Bad Ugly
That was painful. Like, Kendrick Perkins painful. Writing this, I sympathize with Scipio Tex and the past two football seasons. It's hard to write the same refrain over and over again with fading hope that things will change. If you watched the game, you know what happened. And if you didn't watch...
Baylor 76, Texas 71: Good, Bad Ugly
This Texas team must no doubt feel like they are living in their own personal Groundhog Day. It was another game that Texas should have lost, but could have won. Baylor carried a 9 point lead into halftime, and it was a lead that fluctuated between 5 to 10 points for most of the first 10 minutes...
Texas Longhorns vs Baylor Bears Live Game Thread
If we can stop Scott Drew from buying new 5-star players at halftime we have a chance. Game tips at noon on CBS. Verne and Clark with the call.
A Look at Texas High School Basketball Recruiting
There's a lot of concern and consternation about Texas basketball these days, partly due to recruiting unrest. The argument comes down to: Rick Barnes should stop recruiting 5* mercenaries that just leave after one year! I don't get any emotional attachment to them, and they're not...
Texas Basketball Fans Are Over Rick Barnes
No, not all of them. Just the ones that used to fill the empty seats at the Erwin Center. Or are no longer starting the conversations at the water cooler that we used to have. Or would type on the basketball threads that used to garner 78 replies that now get 19. Whether its fans voting with...
Texas Basketball: 3 Down (and Out), 3 To Go
Texas is currently halfway through its brutal 6 game stretch. In my "Murderer's Row" preview, I posited that 3-3 was an attainable goal. Well, so much for that optimism. Three games in, and the young Horns have notched three losses. Well, a 3-3 split is still in arm's reach. It's just a really,...
Kansas 69, Texas 66: Good, Bad Ugly
Coffee is for closers and Kansas regular season basketball. There's a reason why the Fightin' Bill Selfs (Selves?) have won 7 straight regular season Big 12 championships, and it's not because they're gunning for a set of steak knives. Texas came ohsoclose to a victory. At various points in the...
Texas vs. Missouri: Good, Bad Ugly
Quoting Denny Green, the Texas Longhorns basketball team "are who we thought they were." J'Covan is a hoss, inexperience is a huge deal on the road, and size matters. Missouri shot lights out in the first half and Texas went into the locker room down 15, but a huge second half by Brown kept the...
