UT’s not real fast guards gotta deal with 0 for Xavier. If they can do that seems like the next step is a reasonable expectation
Will SDSU be allowed to wrestle Alabama? They need to duplicate Tenn's formula.

KState can’t win if refs let Kentucky mug it up SEC style
seems almost too predictable that TCU will beat Gonzaga in Gonzaga's annual cucking against a lower seeded team battle tested from a power conference
He got Marquette to a 2 seed. Not sure he ever came close to doing that with the horns
He should have done better with lots of talent at Horns and he just lost to a better coached team.
You’re proving my point
shaka already explained why he failed at texas.......shaka said the players at texas did not want to run havoc or play the havoc style.......the players wanted to use aau style basketball.........shaka excells with havoc as evident by him winning marquette its first ever bigeast le with havoc.........
I partially agree with that. I think his style of play relies on guys having experience and the one-and-done nature of Texas' best recruits kept setting him back. Also the expectation are higher at Texas and the grind of a Big XII schedule makes havoc style basketball less effective over the course of a season... maybe.
Shaka had plenty of talent and did the usual UT thing ( except for this year) and under whelmed and fell short
Really? lol if so, then I’m sold.
So should have Rick Barnes. So should have Sark. So should have Herman. So should the baseball team.
I think there's an ins utional coddle factor you're overlooking.
Wrong again
I do not overlook it
It is the main issue
At this point it is ins utional
It is more than athletics it is a manner of being
Constantly being outperformed by lessor talent who is coached better and wants it more
Beard’s players seem to have broken the mold
We will see
So it wasn't really Shaka then? You don't know which way you're going
no coddle factor.......its the standford factor........texas admin does things by the book they care more about image than sports........if texas stopped the holier than thou aproach they would terrorize college sports.........no other college could do what texas can..........
Well in a way you are right
I think each coach you listed should have done better but the stank of UT drug them down
Why none seemed to be able to beat the yoke of the en lement surprises me.
You take the big money at big money U the expectation is to make it happen but none could. Barnes did well until the end.
At this point I just anticipate the implosion
Maybe this team will be different.
Beard seems to have gotten close but he got rough with his gal and ruined his chance.
Lol Stanford factor.
Texas players show up, get paid and are looking ahead to the pros and afraid of taking a hit to jeopardize that. And the coaches pat them on the head and tell em it's ok.
xaviers best player is a rodney terry recruit/comitt from his time at el paso.......... terry can recruit
A 7 seed a favorite over a 3. Ok.
I might put a dime on Tennessee over FAU
I already posted the idiot the 5* kid from Duncanville would not come to Texas if Terry was fired. “Let go”
Gerry Hamilton from on3 has said this numerous in the past; as far back as the regular season.Hamilton said this way before PB posted Hamilton had said it. This was another reason Hamilton claimed that Terry would likely be rehired.
Whatever happens tomorrow night Beard’s team has played very hard for the current coach. Beard founded the great combination of parts. Beard is a very good coach. Just not Texas’ very good coach. Beard’s bull ting UT was good for no one Imo.

Matchups. Izzo factor.
Tennessee has a fantastic defense. But they can shoot very poorly if a team is able to handle them on the inside. Vols can get very out of synch on offense. I just don’t know which game. It can happen with bad teams. If Tennessee hits 3s and plays D they are as good as any team. Better than UT for sure because we don’t have the talent on defense Tennessee does. We would get killed by Tennessee shooting like we did against Penn St. imo.
