Was this the straw that broke the camel's back? We just lost to 0-13 South Carolina by 20 in a game we desperately needed.

If not this, what? Unfortunately for Terry, I believe you're right.

Yeah, this loss is an ugly stain for sure. Not a game you can lose given the circumstances.

Makes the remaining games that much more important to make the tourney.

Terry needs some magic to keep his job at this point I would think. Even with a good tourney run (sweet 16 or better) I still have little belief that he will field a team that is consistently good to great.

Notre Dame ladies lost today, so a very good chance our ladies will be #1 come tomorrow

Agree, I say we go after Nate Oats with big $$$$.

What about Jai Lucas? Played here, coached here, assistant on Duke, well respected and recruits well. In the running for Miami job.

I'd be good with that pick. Wouldn't be unhappy with Oats, either.

I believe he’s already agreed to the Miami job.

Bama, gave him a deal through 2030 at 7.5+ Million with something like $16-18 Million buyout.
Doubt CDC opts to pay that buyout.

Lady Horns are #1


Horns #1

Lady Horns in a tough one at Miss St, 49-48 Horns after 3 quarters.

68-64, Lady Horns over Miss St

The guards came to play. Proud of S Holle.

Seems I was wrong. I just saw on ESPN that he has yet to agree to take the Miami job however based on the article, it appears they've been talking.

Hasn’t signed. Throw the $$ at him. He’s got to have some desire I would think, to come here.

Jai doesn't feel like a CDC pick. Never been a head coach before. He usually wants established guys. Lucas seems like a guy that we'd take after 3 years of coaching well at Miami. Just not enough experience to trust with the Texas job yet.

I typically agree. But there are those who are underlings that nevertheless have skins on the wall.

Auburn is a good basketball team. They’re up at the half at Kentucky 49-34.

 

[Kmed]

Tried watching the Georgia game, but this team is too frustrating to watch. Down 20-10 halfway through the 1st.

 

[Sirhornsalot]

Texas down 56-33 in the 2nd half (16 mins left)

 

[Sirhornsalot]

Georgia beats Texas easily, 83-67.

I think this loss eliminates us from the tourney contention.
