“We’re not where we want to be,” Del Conte told Horns247. “But we’re making progress. Our goal is to win the NCAA championship. But we won the NIT championship, and that locker room is cohesive…”

Sorry, guys.

Just ruining my Saturday eh?


Oh btw--- on a different sporting note--- #21 has some scoots for a fish. He's not Metcalf or Mike adams fast, but he ain't slow either.

Sorry, guys.

The locker room is not cohesive..... Roach was a cancer. I could see the jealousy every time one of our "one and done players" talked to the guy. To me Roach, A Jones, Jacob Young, and Tevin Mack looked to be jealous of Jarret Allen, Bamba, and now Hayes.

The recipe for a good team under SS, a la Texas Tech, is to not recruit players with attitude problems who assume they are League ready. So for SS, who is not a rough coach, he must recruit kids with a good attitude. Rough coaches tend to dump the prima donna players on their ass and they usually transfer quickly. Shaka seems to pussy foot around the "punk" issue and allow the problem to fester. Some advice, the punk factor is highly correlated to the number of tats on the individual... just sayin.

I'll learn his name quickly. PS-- we look like a MASH unit on D.

We just lost frosh D. Floyd for the season and maybe permanently. He has spinal stenosis. He is a real thumper and was greatly needed to play mike lb. Now we must rely on a red shirt frosh who will be a big step back from Wheeler. The predictions for 9+ wins for 2019 should be fading fast.

#21 being Jordan Whittington.

Jordan is not that fast. He's not gonna dazzle anybody in the 40 or 100. He's hard to catch on the football field, though. No wasted movement. In and out of cuts at full speed. What he misses in top speed he makes up for in quickness and acceleration. He'll be fun to watch.
 
Stick with Shaka. He WILL git ur done. When the Horns qualify for the (big dance) final 8 then I will be quick to post here "I told you so" It's only just a matter of time:)

stfu... in the meantime, hoiberg, musselman and buzz have been hired. better nail it next year. pretty much down to altman, beard or donovan. all can be considered pipe dreams.

Yep. This was the year to make a bold move, buyout be damned. Can't really blame CDC too much for standing pat, given tepid fan support for Texas basketball, but we'll probably pay for it in performance for years to come.

Hope Billy Donovan gets fired before March next year.

He is down an assistant coach with Horn? leaving
 
I know this but if the rumors are true about Michigan is he staying or leaving for the right amount
My guess is they go Juwuan Howard. Especially with the way the Penny Hardaway has been able to recruit for Memphis, Michigan could see this as rebuilding the bridge between UM and the Fab 5 while also getting a recruiting bump from having a NBA dude as the coach. I believe he has been coaching for the Heat
