I watched part of it, and Texas definitely looked like a team figuring out how to get the different pieces to work together. St. John’s looked like they had been playing as a team for a while. Not sure how many returnees they had, but they looked good.

We’ll be fine, and this was a great scrimage to have.

Longhorns beat Chicago State 109-59 this evening. Horns shot 50 percent from the three.

Joe Sterling's shooting was impressive. Isiah Johnson also shoots the ball very well. Spears was impressive for such a young guy. Great times are ahead folks.

Punch with 10 points already.

54-20 halftime. Texas finishes the half on a 21-0 run.

It's nice watching a completely stress free Longhorn game.

Final 98-50 Texas. Seven players in double figures.

From what I saw of Marcus Spears Jr. last night he is not a one and done. All of his points came from under the rim. He has to work on his midrange game.

Also, this offense is exciting to watch. They really don't seem to slow it down. Always looking for opportunities. Defense isn't bad either.

Because he's only 17 or so and came out early, he must play two years regardless before he can go into the draft.

Good point. I had forgotten you had to 19 years old to enter the NBA draft. I was thinking you only needed one year of college ball.
