I don't know that that's true? Like no shade, but Texas regularly regresses throughout the year as a product of playing in the B12. Hence why they get bounced early a lot. This team 110% seems special, and they will work out a lot of kinks, but they won't be put in nearly as many pressure situations from today until December. If I was Jared, I would make every practice just a match between two evenly paired sides of the roster LOL. Bounced early a lot what’s your definition of early cause this is simply not true. Earlier than expectation / seed. I think that is 110% true. It's to their credit that they start almost every year ranked in the top 2-3. |

Didn’t think about that actually, but I do think they’ll get better solely because they’ll gel more as they play more games together Def. I'm only concerned about how good they'll get v/a/v the other teams, but I'm also willing to admit that I'm prob just paranoid. It's been nine too many years. |

It’s quite the scary thought that this Texas team will only get better from here, like what do you against that?! Lol I don't know that that's true? Like no shade, but Texas regularly regresses throughout the year as a product of playing in the B12. Hence why they get bounced early a lot. This team 110% seems special, and they will work out a lot of kinks, but they won't be put in nearly as many pressure situations from today until December. If I was Jared, I would make every practice just a match between two evenly paired sides of the roster LOL. Define gets bounced early a lot. I’ll put up UT’s performance in the tournament against any other program. A lack of championships? Sure. Getting bounced early in the tournament a lot? Hardly. |

I think by early, they mean for Texas standards that is, which is competing for a national championship |

Bounced early a lot what’s your definition of early cause this is simply not true. I think by early, they mean for Texas standards that is which is competing for a national championship Lol yes. Like, for 99% of the programs in the country, Texas' track record in the post season is envious. But, when the program does not shy away from saying they want a natty at the start of every season, that's the bar you hold them to. Going five against UCSB in the sweet 16, losing to Louisville and Nebraska at home... not things that "should" happen when you hold yourself to that standard. But, the reality is that only one team wins. So... of course it's going to happen a lot if you choose that to be your bar. |

Bounced early a lot what’s your definition of early cause this is simply not true. I think by early, they mean for Texas standards that is which is competing for a national championship Then say they don’t win championships. Texas goes deep into the tournament as consistently as anyone in the country, which is the opposite of getting bounced early. |

It's to their credit that they start almost every year ranked in the top 2-3. Still not true upsets happen Texas runs into good seeds they were in the NC in the spring and lost in the round of 8 last year. No one brings this up when any B1G schools lose early. Texas has the longest active steak of making the round of 16 just to prove my point. |

Idk, I think the big 12 looks good this year and can put pressure on Texas.

“16 straight sweet 16 appearances - longest active streak in the nation”
“Gets bounced early a lot.”

Texas goes deep into the tournament as consistently as anyone in the country, which is the opposite of getting bounced early. I’m with you, I think the Ohio State football fan in me just related to what they’re trying to say..Championship or bust, it’s really complimenting them to be honest at least from my standpoint lol, they’re a consistent powerhouse that’s expected to win every year |
