Wow.  Mack obsessing over Longhorn basketball too.   He has really moved on fellas!

The team is just young.  Shaka will get them there eventually.  Back to back blowout losses is no big deal.  

 

The Ags aren't very good either if that makes you feel better.  They miss JJ bad!  Our point guard play is brutal.

Doesn't make me feel better.  Rooting for the Ags in basketball.  You guys will have 2 of our kids next year.  

As for us, I'm not surprised and was told before the season that they would take some early lumps.  But you're right, Shaka will get them there eventually.  That's one hire I have absolutely no doubts about.   You have to trust the process.  

We have two blowout losses, I'm not the least concerned and still believe we will be fine by the end of the year.  Ags lose by 2 at home against USC and some Ags are freaking out saying they aren't a tournament team.  We call it basketball IQ.  You are correct that y'all need a PG badly and JJ getting hosed by the NCAA took a team that could go sweet 16 or deeper and probably turned them into merely a qualifier.  But they will be fine and are also young.  I would bet a hefty sum the Ags make the tournament.

He will. Very young team.

Aren't all of the good teams in college basketball young?  1 & done has a lot to do with it.  You can't make the same excuses in basketball that y'all do for football.  

 

Kentucky's roster includes 7 freshman, 4 sophomores, & 3 seniors.  They start 4 freshman and a sophomore.  They seem to have a pretty good team this year for a bunch of young kids.

There are no one and done guys at UT.

Shaka did not have one and done guys at VCU. 

They should get better.

Shaka will be fine.  He's a rock star who has a great understanding of the game.  He signed 2 Mickey D's AAs this year alone.  I would put him in the top 10 college coaches the kids want to play for and possibly top 5.   I will put it this way, he's closer to 5 than 10.   Texas will be a perennial top 10 program very soon.  I will be back to tell you I told you so.

    • I haven’t been watching closely, but even the liberal sources even tell the story as “the defense really took apart Cohen’s testimony on Thursday.” It sounds like sloppy work from the prosecution to point out a specific call as being “the one,” when it was easily concluded that this particular call could not have occurred the way that Cohen (and the prosecution) claim it to have happened.    The bad news is that I doubt that it matters much-I suspect that most jurors minds were closed before testimony started.   I don’t see Trump leaving with anything less than a conviction based on the venue (NYC).
    • Tough case all the way around.  The guy had a lot of online activity come out where he made racist statements and statements about killing BLM protesters and looters.  So when he then goes out and does it, it looks really bad.  I've seen a lot of videos where people have driven through protestors, defended themselves against them, etc., and didn't bat an eye.  This feels different, but that doesn't necessarily make it murder, either.  His account of the events that happened vs. the witness accounts were both very different, but I'd also expect both sides' accounts to be self-serving and inaccurate to fit their narrative.  Not really sure what to think on this one.  
    • @CardinalBacker   Wanted to get your thoughts on how Cohen did as Bragg's star witness..... My Take: The State spent two days acknowledging that Cohen lied all the time but now he has come clean,,,,,,,it took the defense (having same evidence state had), just a few hours to confirm Cohen lied to the current jury a couple days ago......  While I thought initially Trump would be found guilty due to venue, with best case a hung jury, there is now a pretty good chance he will be acquitted...... Thoughts anyone??   This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up
    • I can only imagine what you over heard. With most of that group there’s no telling. 
    • If I recall at that time you had protestors all all over the country jumping on cars while people were in them......While I agree it was stupid shooting him, how do you know what a guy is going to do walking up to you with an exposed gun? At the time I thought it was justified simply because you can't know the drivers level of fear......
