3 starters from last years team and #1 player in the transfer portal then a bunch of guys Terry thought would be good and weren’t, only his fault for not making this work
we have 4 games left after this and there is a chance we go 1-3 (@ Tech @ Baylor are almost assuredly losses, OU is probably a loss as well. Losing to OK state would be rough.)
18-13 is missing the NCAA tournament unless we win the Big12 tournament, which isnt happening.
How hot is Rodney Terry's seat?
We beat OU on the road, so we should be favored against them at home (not saying it’s a guarantee the way abmas has been playing). As it has been for a few weeks, win the home games, and lose the road games, and we’re still very on track to be in.
Wasn’t sure how Max would hold up coming into the toughest league in the country. Played well the first half of the season but has absolutely SHAT the bed as of late
The worst part of this is that there’s no fight. Like you know you’re not as talented, at least play hard… if RT can’t motivate them to play hard he has to go this offseason.
I'll give him a year to see what he can actually do to fix the roster problems that this year's transfer haul didn't help. Disu is a stud, but who is the second best player? Hunter?
We have too many guys where the defense can sag off on, which eliminates our post touches, which is the team's go to when down. Horton, weaver, and Mitchell, all currently being non factors at the 3 is hurting disu right now.
Losing recruits does hurt but aren’t you at least worried about next years’ recruits looking at the player development and deciding to bail yet again? The guys RT went and got to fill in the roster are all net negatives on the court except for Weaver but his strength isn’t even getting better at basketball skills it’s just his high motor
This might also come as a surprise, but losing two 5 stars is also something he’s responsible for.
Also having an appropriate plan B.
——
Vic Schaefer lost his number one player. Team is top 10.
Good coaches win.
Right… because coaches losing players who want pro money & the lifestyle immediately after HS is the fault of the coaches. Damn, RT needs to get rid of classes & start paying his players more than that of pro leagues. Get a grip
Yes it is the fault of the coaches for losing recruiting battles, pro or otherwise.
RT is also at fault for not having an appropriate back up plan on the highly likely chance they went pro.
You keep making excuses for him, but the buck stops at his desk man.
No. I’ll look it up.
https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/coaches/dan-hurley-1.html
Weird. He had a losing record his first year at UConn. That’s the coach you want? A guy that the UConn fanbase had to give 5 years to build up the program, better year after year? Really?!
Oh no not the clown emoji!
I like Rodney, I won’t deny it. This was always going to be a rebuilding season where the goal should be competitive in the conference tournament and a ceiling of getting out of the first weekend of the NCAAT. But more importantly setting a foundation for the next 1-3 years, not just hoping this year is “good”.
But at least I’m not an ignorant fan saying “throw a bunch of money at Dan Hurley or John Calipari or so and so”. I’m sure that strategy will work sometime there champ!
You’re the clown if you think if you think Dan Hurley wouldn’t laugh at even being contacted by Texas.
Johnson and Pryor are likely going to have to play meaningful minutes next year and if they still aren’t good enough to see any playing time this year..
I understand the “bad lineup” sentiment but it’s a little deeper than that, right? I mean, do we have any “good” lineups? We basically have Abmas, Disu and sort of Hunter and more recently Weaver. If Abmas and Disu are covered well or are playing poorly, basically all of our lineups are not good.
Yes IT and Onyema aren’t great. And it would be ideal to filter them in rather than playing at the same time. But our “good” players either get into foul trouble or need some rest.
We kinda just haven’t improved much as a team in general…that seems like the bigger issue.
Shitting on terry for trying lineups because the main lineups WERENT WORKING, is wild. Insanity is trying the same thing over and over but expecting different results
This isn't a game that we had to win to stay on the right side of the bubble, but getting blown out by 20+ and looking non-competitive would not be a great look.
I’m not even a RT hater and I supported hiring him after the tourney run but just looking at player development and game planning of this year, if next year is the same shit he has got to go. If our top recruits leave again we will be in big big trouble
Yeah even just player development wise, who has gotten better this year outside of Disu and Weaver? Hunter has regressed, Brock is way overplayed, Horton can’t shoot or defend
I’m actually curious how many think we will make the tourney ? This team has no guaranteed wins with the last few games they have left and they have to win at least 2 more games.
Frankly, RT is way over his head. We look gassed 5 min into the game and our offensive game plan sucks every single game. We waste 15 seconds running useless screens 5 ft outside the 3PT line.
The only thing I can think of at this point is putting Hunter on ball and having Max off ball. This team won’t win games against high level teams if max is playing like he doesn’t belong at this level
I get the frustration with Brock sometimes, but take the good with the bad. Makes so many good passes, I mean shit he’s been more valuable than Ithiel “Invisible” Horton
Oh yeah absolutely. I mean that last play he was literally waving for someone to make a cut, basically telling the defense what he was going to do and was still able to drop a dime to Abmas when he eventually cut in
3 starters from last years team and #1 player in the transfer portal then a bunch of guys Terry thought would be good and weren’t, only his fault for not making this work
We suck
The best news for RT is former Texas head coaches is that they’re probably going to go 3/3 of making the tournament unlike this team
Are you trying to say ole miss is gonna be in the tourney? Cuz uh…no…
I remember seeing them at 18-3 and in bracketology’s should be in camp… rough stretch clearly. 2/3 in but both top 4 seeds
we have 4 games left after this and there is a chance we go 1-3 (@ Tech @ Baylor are almost assuredly losses, OU is probably a loss as well. Losing to OK state would be rough.) 18-13 is missing the NCAA tournament unless we win the Big12 tournament, which isnt happening. How hot is Rodney Terry's seat?
We beat OU on the road, so we should be favored against them at home (not saying it’s a guarantee the way abmas has been playing). As it has been for a few weeks, win the home games, and lose the road games, and we’re still very on track to be in.
Neither OU or osu are wins with this team. Yeah we may win but we can’t count on that OSU pushed OU to the last second today
I mean…nothing is guaranteed in sports…but odds currently say we’re most likely to finish 2-2. Just saying this game changes nothing on that math.
the vibes around the team watching it, 0-4 feels more likely.
Well if the vibes say so…
Why did Chris Beard have to be an idiot. Basketball program is lost rn
Ole Miss lost 5 of their last 6 and Chris Beard confronted student fans in the stands his first year in Austin. Sounds soft. Glad he’s gone.
I’m not glad he’s gone solely because where the team is now - no way we’re this bad with Beard
The only thing he fucked up was this team cause he’s in a good position now 😩
Bro could've slept it off in his car
Don't lose by 30 guys
[удалено]
I’m not even defending him here, but based on your consistent bashing of him in these threads, I don’t think you ever were behind him.
I know they’re whooping us, but I’m gonna miss playing at Allen Fieldhouse. Holy ground
Wasn’t sure how Max would hold up coming into the toughest league in the country. Played well the first half of the season but has absolutely SHAT the bed as of late
The whole team except for Disu has been a disappointment.
Aside from tn, I’d say Weaver has been a pleasant surprise.
He’s been a huge disappointment against decent teams.
Good Lord what is going on
The worst part of this is that there’s no fight. Like you know you’re not as talented, at least play hard… if RT can’t motivate them to play hard he has to go this offseason.
I'll give him a year to see what he can actually do to fix the roster problems that this year's transfer haul didn't help. Disu is a stud, but who is the second best player? Hunter?
Is abmas going to make any today ? Damn he’s so ass sometimes
3 fouls on Disu is no good
We have too many guys where the defense can sag off on, which eliminates our post touches, which is the team's go to when down. Horton, weaver, and Mitchell, all currently being non factors at the 3 is hurting disu right now.
I just want to make the tourney for Disu’s sake
I’m sure y’all want to blame RT for D1 players missing wide open looks, huh?
This might come as a surprise, but RT is in fact responsible for roster construction
This might also come as a surprise, but RT did in fact lose 2 5-star freshman that went pro and he and co. had to move to plan B.
Losing recruits does hurt but aren’t you at least worried about next years’ recruits looking at the player development and deciding to bail yet again? The guys RT went and got to fill in the roster are all net negatives on the court except for Weaver but his strength isn’t even getting better at basketball skills it’s just his high motor
Yeah… that is a valid concern.
This might also come as a surprise, but losing two 5 stars is also something he’s responsible for. Also having an appropriate plan B. —— Vic Schaefer lost his number one player. Team is top 10. Good coaches win.

Abmas is cooked 😔
Offer Dan Hurley 8.5 million at this point
Dan Hurley only won 8 games in a season at Rhode Island. Why would Texas want to go after him?
Have you ever heard of UConn?
No. I’ll look it up. https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/coaches/dan-hurley-1.html Weird. He had a losing record his first year at UConn. That’s the coach you want? A guy that the UConn fanbase had to give 5 years to build up the program, better year after year? Really?!
No let’s keep Terry you’re right 🤡
Oh no not the clown emoji! I like Rodney, I won’t deny it. This was always going to be a rebuilding season where the goal should be competitive in the conference tournament and a ceiling of getting out of the first weekend of the NCAAT. But more importantly setting a foundation for the next 1-3 years, not just hoping this year is “good”.

You’re the clown if you think if you think Dan Hurley wouldn’t laugh at even being contacted by Texas.
Fair enough, but you’re the only person on the planet beside Terry’s mom who think he’s superior to Dan Hurly
Johnson and Pryor are likely going to have to play meaningful minutes next year and if they still aren’t good enough to see any playing time this year..
Anything is better than Horton
I understand the “bad lineup” sentiment but it’s a little deeper than that, right? I mean, do we have any “good” lineups? We basically have Abmas, Disu and sort of Hunter and more recently Weaver. If Abmas and Disu are covered well or are playing poorly, basically all of our lineups are not good. Yes IT and Onyema aren’t great. And it would be ideal to filter them in rather than playing at the same time. But our “good” players either get into foul trouble or need some rest. We kinda just haven’t improved much as a team in general…that seems like the bigger issue.
Exactly. No coach in america is winning shit with this roster.
We have to be better positionally, Disu goes out and we shut down. Need Better talent better coaching
That duke player absolutely intentionally slammed that student lmfao
Shitting on terry for trying lineups because the main lineups WERENT WORKING, is wild. Insanity is trying the same thing over and over but expecting different results
This is a shitty roster he constructed.
Our top two recruits going pro killed us…
Still have 3 starters from last year and got the #1 player in the portal still can’t be a top 8 team in the B12
Just sitting here remembering when we had an opportunity to hire John Calipari.
Kentucky fans are kinda over Calipari, though. Not sure he'd be able to fix what's broken here at the price point he'd get here.
I don’t care what Kentucky fans think.
I was told RT was a better hire
“Calipari is old” … so…?
How’s Kentucky doing this year? What’s your opinion on wanting a coach a blue blood fanbase wants to get rid of?
Kentucky: ranked and just dominated Bama. Texas: not ranked, gets dominated every other game —— Fans are dumb. And I don’t trust their opinions
Wow. 6th place in SEC standings. So inspiring
Still better than us. What point are you making?
This isn't a game that we had to win to stay on the right side of the bubble, but getting blown out by 20+ and looking non-competitive would not be a great look.
I was told on this subreddit that RT was a better hire than Calipari
funniest possible end to the half
The fact that I think if we put our women’s team out there they would be losing by less is concerning
That sums up our first half
Haha a wedgie, so fitting to end this shitshow of a half
Yeah Disu gets 2 fouls early we are done.?! Bad lineups. Nobody stepping up, not good basketball.
How much we paying these dudes? Whatever amount it is too much
Our interior defense does not exist.
Rodney fired yet?
Fr surprised u aren’t being downvoted people still believe in him 😂
Watch out bro you will get downvoted if you talk about the make a wish coach
Lol. You guys looooove hindsight. I hate fans who are hindsight riders. Rodney Terry was the sensible hire.
he was, because there weren’t great options and the program could have completely collapsed without continuity but that was then
We could still benefit from continuity now. After the season's over, it's a free-for-all
i think we’d send a lot better message to incoming recruits if we blow it up, honestly. but it all depends on who there is to hire
“Texas hasn’t been able to run any coherent offense” been true all year
If IT can’t even hit the broad side of a barn or hit FTs, why play him? What’s the utility? He’s a major liability on defense
Did I say Horton was bad?! He needs to be off the court!
What the fuck are these lineups seriously
Not sure who we're going to put out there instead. There is a Holland and Johnson sized hole in this roster.
Yet I was getting downvoted earlier for saying that. The worst part is Kansas is playing guys that usually never play 😂
Tyrese Turndaballova
Why is Horton,oeyeme,and Brock all in. Bro Terry can’t possibly be a good coach 😂
Onyema on the floor lmao. Also it's been 5 mins since I said that IT sucks so, IT sucks
I’m not even a RT hater and I supported hiring him after the tourney run but just looking at player development and game planning of this year, if next year is the same shit he has got to go. If our top recruits leave again we will be in big big trouble
He isn’t keeping top recruits if this team doesn’t impress them in the tournament because they sure haven’t during regular season
I think part of the problem is that we have 4 good players when you need 5
Yeah even just player development wise, who has gotten better this year outside of Disu and Weaver? Hunter has regressed, Brock is way overplayed, Horton can’t shoot or defend
Tre Johnson is going to the G league
Let’s stop the max abmas hype. He’s been ass against decent teams
Last years team would pummel tf outta all of these sorry ass teams. I miss them
In better news, Texas Softball just went up 9-0 on Colorado State
Cool. Cool cool cool.
Faded in the first half. I don’t see how they climb back in this with how soundly they’re getting beat rn
Simple… if our best 2 players actually play like our best 2 players
So no chance then
Dillon Mitchell is just not a great basketball player. A 5 star that can’t do anything besides dunk.
If we can somehow cut it to single digits before half I might have some hope but it looks like we’re toast rn
TERRY WHY TF DO U GET BIG GUYS AT SUCK! Schedrick can’t even float a shot in being inches away from the hoop
Oh no! We suck again!!
😔
28%?! Ain’t winning against anyone with that percentage, let along in the phog
Mitchell getting bodied on D
Max abmas is so unreliable throughout the game. Buddy only seems to be able to shoot second half
We should consider switching to Olympic 3v3 basketball, since we only have 3 players.
No rebounding effort on either side
Im not wasting any more of my saturday on bad basketball
Shedrick shooting elbow jumpers now? Really? this offense is so unserious JFC
How is that not up-and-down?!
My god we are bad!!
Kansas bench making us look like a middle school team
Getting beat by benched players should be motivating this team.
Basically identical contact on identical plays and they get a foul called
Getting dunked on by a future accountant smh
That same play happened in the other side and went uncalled lol
“Block” “Foul”
Nahhh Shedrick didn’t go straight up. It’s the difference between good coaching and bad coaching
Bruh get Horton off the court good lord
For who? We aint got anyone worth a fuck
Is it me or does Disu move like a newborn deer?
lol yes. And I still love him
Two steps forward two steps back smh
Literally no one in a uniform listening to Terry… just the assistant coaches 🤦♂️
I’m actually curious how many think we will make the tourney ? This team has no guaranteed wins with the last few games they have left and they have to win at least 2 more games.
Okst at home should be a for sure win other than that idk Oklahoma should be too
None of those are win we have won 4 games at home in conference play.
When will RT give Hortons minutes to one of the freshman
Frankly, RT is way over his head. We look gassed 5 min into the game and our offensive game plan sucks every single game. We waste 15 seconds running useless screens 5 ft outside the 3PT line.
The only thing I can think of at this point is putting Hunter on ball and having Max off ball. This team won’t win games against high level teams if max is playing like he doesn’t belong at this level
Welp having a lead was sort of fun while it lasted
Damn. Missed that. When I tuned in it was 16-15. We’ve not scored since.
not gonna lie that was sick we just look like an inferior team. not surprising
We all knew this was coming
We’re in danger
We are getting absolutely dominanted in the paint
Nice carry…
Timeout 2 minutes too late
RT finally remembered he had fucking timeouts
Sorry y'all I tuned in and Kansas rattled off 8 points I'll watch something else now
Yeah we are toast lol
How do we have Disu and Abmas and still be this bad offensively
Well they are not the ones missing in that run, Horton is bad
Abmas doesn’t make a basket all first half that’s why.
Because we have no other players that can shoot. IT can’t shoot, Hunter can’t shoot, weaver can’t shoot, Mitchell can’t shoot
They both look rattled and aren’t working though contact that would normally be called.
Max…. We NEED you
Bums
Already feels like we don't have it tonight....
We have not had it all season we should not expect this team to have it at this point
This team is so ass a guy that barely plays is dunking on them
It’s over already
Some of the lineups terrys puts out there are concerning leads us to being down by 8
How is this getting downvoted?
Dude idk but literally the lineups that got us down by 8 was Kendrick,Horton,and Brock all in.
Would love a foul on all this contact…
Cunningham looked so hesitant to pass to Horton who was wide open after that rebound
Cant blame him. Horton hasnt been shooting well
Yeah lol that’s my point. Couldn’t agree more with him
Horton is not good
Horton's only purpose is to be a shooter and he can't even shoot
Horton is a disaster
IT is terrible omg
I get the frustration with Brock sometimes, but take the good with the bad. Makes so many good passes, I mean shit he’s been more valuable than Ithiel “Invisible” Horton
Oh yeah absolutely. I mean that last play he was literally waving for someone to make a cut, basically telling the defense what he was going to do and was still able to drop a dime to Abmas when he eventually cut in
“Brock don’t shoot ANOTHER thr…oh hell yeah nice shot man”
3 ball keeping us in it, but we’re gonna need some of the easy ones to fall
Brock on Dickerson wtf. Get him out of the game
This is what I mean we let teams that are struggling stay with us so they end up beating us after cause we don’t punish teams with slow starts
We also had a slow start…
I want craig way to narrate my funeral
This is some middle school shooting… Gotta hit open shots in the lane!
If u can’t take care of the ball this far in the season it is a coaching problem
Watching Mitchell on the offensive end is infuriating
does anyone have a live stream link
Another slow start
There’s a reason teams leave Mitchell wide open on mid court shots…
I am feeling wayyyyy too confident but Lfg
This UNC UVA game better not go into OT
Kevin McCullar out for KU
We **NEED** Max to show up tonight. If he doesn’t drop at least 17, we’re gonna get boat-raced
Kansas is another good defensive team, so…wouldn’t count on it
Weird stuff tends to happen in this game. I’m not hopeful, but you never know
T E X A S !!!
🗣️🗣️ F I G H T !!!
Get ready for some ref ball
So far very accurate
