Texas Basketball has taken a backseat in my small sports brain with good reason. But conference play is about to start. Here are my questions?
1. How long is Tre J. out? Does he have a hip pointer?
2. Has RT already decided on his core rotation of Pope, Tramon, Johnson, Kaluma, Shedrick, Weaver, Larry, and Onyema? Is Jayson Kent in the rotation?
3. We signed zero players in the Class of 2025 in the signing period. Was there no one we wanted?
4. I am fascinated by Jordan Pope’s 42 points. 42 points on 21 shots is incredible. That matters, even against a bad opponent. Sustainable?
5. Who has surprised? Who has disappointed?
6. I don’t love the offensive scheme and lack of movement but my biggest concern is still on the defensive end. I am worried we won’t get stops, force tough shots, not foul, and be able to rebound the basketball.
7. Texas first 8 conference games are: at aggy, Auburn, Tennessee, at ousux, at Florida, Mizzou, Aggy, and at Ole Miss. That’s rough. I am setting the O/U of wins 3.5, and I might take the under.
Thoughts?
