He basically gave a progress report. Hired a lot of staff and signed a lot of players. 19 from the portal and 15 freshmen. More to come. If TU is going to turn things around, they'll need energetic leaders. He seems to fill that bill. Hopefully, the good results will follow.

UAB Game Thread

The guys played very hard, but they just aren't tough enough to beat a team like UAB. We lost in execution and mental toughness. Outcoached. Again.

After so many missed free throws, I almost had a conniption fit at my seat.

We're 9-12 and the next two games don't look too promising. Does anyone believe Eric Konkol is doing a good job in his third season as Head Basketball Coach? I'll take my answer off the air.

Game Thoughts UAB

TU had the effort to contend with UAB tonight but could not contain a potential NBA first rounder Yaxel Lendeborg who had 28 points and 13 rebounds and 6 assists and no turnovers. Clearly the best player in the AAC. TU rebounded very well but lost all chance by opening the second half with 0-7 from the free throw line. A lot of good effort extended but UAB clearly the better team and would win 10-10 times we play them. Apparently they have mostly seniors and I can't find a portal transfer on their roster. They must have wagon loads of NIL money to keep those players there.

Most say Kennedy is by far the best coach in the American and his continual shifting of defenses and set plays were superb. Our defense was good but not to that level. Amadi was sick but otherwise at full strength.

SoCal fires

And I meant all of that. If you go back and look at the Texas thread, I said relief should be given and in a timely manner. I did say the Republican leaders in Texas should be chastised for holding their hand out while talking about secession. Same goes for California.

As far as Texas goes, you and I both know, having spoken to Texans before that they love to brag about their perception that they can leave any time they choose.
I’m married to a Texan so I’m very familiar with the “Republic”. That said…to my knowledge no high ranking Texas state official has ever taken the required steps to take the act of succession to a vote of the people.

SoCal fires

You actually didn’t. Here was your response when I brought succession up:

“Keeping aid from a state accounts for such a large part of the federal budget is fairly brave. That being said, I would prefer the aid to be given to those who need and for Republicans to finally stop playing games with disaster relief…. As they have done several times now in Democratic areas. (They then whine when someone even considers retaliation… just like the cowardly bullies they are)”

Partisan and anti-Pub without a single word criticizing California. It wasn’t until I specifically called out your hypocrisy that you said anything about Cali.

California SOS has approved a ballot measure for succession so the measure it set to be voted on by Californians. How has Texas gone further that a statewide succession vote?
