I believe the replay will be available on ESPN on demand, there is no LHN moratorium on replay.

I’m just thrilled with this one. With the stress of keeping my puppy away from our dog that just had surgery and trying to keep her from licking the incision, I decided to sit this one out.

It killed me, but I didn’t check the score until 9:05 and my night has been made

Watching it was tough, especially down the stretch. Yiu would have lost it with all of the missed bunnies by the bigs. All were likely dunkable yet they opted for, and missed, the lay ins.

Defense and rebounding were outstanding in the first half. This probably ranked up their with the first half at TCU as rbe best basketball the team has played all year.

With that stat line tonight, Texas really getting a return on that investment.

TJ and staff must have something to do with it.

They're on the verge of a third tourney appearance in a row (third time ever) with a lot of guys from mid-major teams and a D2 player.

Wasn't something like 3-6 in the front end seen as a good thing before it started?

This team is ahead of schedule. 10 conference wins is a real possibility which is fun.
in addition to only having 4 home games in the first 9, 2 of them were against KU and Houston. i cant imagine many had a more difficult first half.

This will kill NIL faster than anything.

Ehh. It'll be like any other recruiting.

Not every top rated recruit\transfer will pan out, but get enough of them over time and the results will generally follow. It just takes more money to do that now. Not that some weren't already spending that money before.

How on earth is that only third win at Texas? We’ve won at Phog more often.
I don't think he was ever that good TBH. Decent. Not great. That Sweet 16 run was smoke and mirrors of who he really is.

He was a great defender with TJ’s staff coaching him.

With Gus Fring there’s not really much. We have three guards who are all better all around players right now.
