Can any of you remember the last time you were this excited about Texas Basketball?

Can any of you remember the last time you were this excited about Texas Basketball?

No. Can't wait for the season opener. We have a good early schedule to gage the team in action.

Yes we do. I'm happy that we'll have a good idea of the identity of this team fairly early on in the season.

I would say last time was when KD was here

We're halfway home on the preview...that means tip-off is only a week away! Hard to believe.

Thanks for all the work, Chris. This is good stuff.

 

[Aaron Carrara]

This team should be fun to watch. A ton of versatile players that appear to have the mental component nailed as well. Listened to Connor Lammert talk about this group of guys and sounds like everyone is on the same page.

 

[Chris Flanagan]

I think that picture of Rick Barnes is when he was looking at me during Big 12 media days. Doesn't he look pissed off at me?

Before committing to football for the day, read Chris Flanagan's preview on Damarcus Croaker....is he a transfer candidate?
