I hoped and prayed that Texas could do the unthinkable and make it to the Final Four
You must be the most sane UT fan in the world man. I totally agree that it was unthinkable for them to make it to the Final Four, shoot i thought it was unthinkable they would make it past the 2nd round, i guess we all were suprised.
Congrats on a very good season, except losing to Tech that was gross. If yall can get a good inside presence next year yall could be knockin on the Final Four door.
Let me put it as simply as this - Texas over acheived this year. They should not have been where they were at. They beat a very good UCLA team - they beat a very good Tennessee team and they beat a very good Kansas team. What happened today was they got exposed for who they are - a small team that played big w/ big hearts. There is no other way to put it than to say that Memphis did a great job of exposing our size. When you have guys that are as good as you, but are 4- 5 inches taller than you, you have mismatches and are in for a long day. Enough about today - I'm proud of our boys and the season they gave us. Great job and look forward to next year.
i just wanna say congrats to Texas on a great year! you have some excellent players and i have to say- i was al ittle nervous going into this game, after watching Texas dispatch stanford the way they did, but all in all, there is nothing to be ashamed of you have a great, classy coach. good luck next year... and GO TIGERS!!
yep mdeyre, I was thinking the same thing yesterday. if DJ stays we will be in the final 4 next year. Got to give my props to to Stinking Memphis. We looked bad on offense, but I think thier defense had a lot to do with it.
I think Big Dexter might actually turn out to be a real live player.
