    An advantage of a Final 4 without bluebloods is that tickets are extremely cheap. I was able to get club seats for Saturday's semifinals for less than $200, which is fantastic considering one ticket gets you into both games. I don't have a dog in the fight but I figured this would be too neat of an experience and too cheap to pass up, especially since its less than a 2 hour drive from my house. 

    I was so thankful I didn’t buy tickets before Sunday’s games.  I can’t imagine how far they dropped when Texas lost.

    Politics is what UT does best when it comes to making big decisions. I agree that they should absolutely give Terry a long term contract though. 

    I don’t know about long term.  Given his history and the debacle with Adams at Tech, I would give him a 2 year $5.5 to 6m deal with the understanding if he keeps it rolling, the next one will be $30m for 6

    And as far as Kountze and Silsbee playing again… highly doubt that happens anytime soon… the talent gap is a pretty decent margin between the two programs.


    True.  But I remember when those games were always highly anticipated, almost to the extent of HJ/Silsbee.  As stated before, as much as I mess with you Lions, I really hope to see a continued rise for Kountze basketball.  Historically, has to be top-5ish in SETX.  Much like football not being as good when WOS is irrelevant, and for with Kountze and hoops.

    I have just about given up on basketball. They don’t enforce the two most basic rules of the game……double dribbling and traveling. Used to be you tried not to foul. Now intentional fouling is an integral part of the game. Why not get 4 points for a half court shot? Oh well. Yes, I still enjoy March Madness. It’s just that the game has evolved to a point where I wonder why they don’t just wear pads and play it like football.

    Since the 3-point shot can be the game decider, everyone should worry about Princeton. These guys are for real and played, what I consider, a real clean game.

    Get back in!  I love this team. And Jabari Rice is as good a kid as I’ve ever been around. I have loved every second of his ride this season. He had a lot of people second guessing his decision to go to UT.  Whatever happens from here, I think it’s safe to say he chose wisely.

    I was thinking they should have been a 4 or 5.

    Had the further misfortune of being matched against one of the best 10 seeds you will ever see.  Penn St playing great basketball at the end of the season. 

    The committee was playing shenanigans with some of these regions though   I am convinced they threw Duke and Kentucky in with the weakest 1-4 seeds to maybe get another blue blood to Houston   And I am convinced they put UofH, UT and A&M in the same region to try and ensure you get a Texas team in the final 4
