VY will have his jersey retired at the Florida Atlantic game
Posted by HenryJames on August 14th, 2008 under Football
When the north temple end zone was built, it was only a matter of time before He returned.
“I’m really looking forward to getting back to Austin again, seeing everyone, reaching out to the community with my foundation event and cheering on my team,” Young said. “I was speechless when they told me about the jersey retirement earlier this summer and I still don’t think it’s sunk in. It’s such a great honor to be remembered in such a special way. Man, when I see that number and my name on the stadium … I don’t know what I’m going to do. It’s just going to be such an unbelievable feeling for me and my family.”
You’re going down, Howard.

Nordberg,
Ironic indeed……teachable moment, I guess….
NY Horn,
I hope your drunk, because Izzo ain’t coming to Texas……Why don’t we just get Coach K. I mean Coach G came from Duke, they have to be dying to get out of Durham….

Egg, that’s fine, but at what point do you blame Barnes? Seriously, man. You’ve thrown players under the bus left and right, but at a certain point, doesn’t the buck stop somewhere. I know you’re more of an NBA guy so it begins and ends with players there, but we need fucking

Trips,
I hear ya. I’m frustrated as well. I guess I just don’t prescribe to such a black and white characterization of the situation. I do know that no matter what happened in the huddle, JCB made a dumb play. If Rick didn’t explain or remind him of the situation, then I

Pat, know I don’t, but I’ve had coaches draw up plays to free up the best foul shooter and then tell that guy they’d put their foot up his ass if they passed the ball. It’s funny, but as a fans of football we nitpick blitz pickup and shit like that. Shit that’s

Shitty season…..Rick needs to hire some offensive help and someone needs to say it to him. Deloss?

Trips,
Do you know that he didn’t? JCB has made bad decision all season, why would this be any different. Barnes coached a shitastic game, but on the teams I was the best FT shooter, I never game up the ball unless it was an uncontested layup…..It’s not hard and it doesn’t take a

mcpayne, yes, you don’t leave that shit to chance. You don’t let your guys break the huddle or dead ball not knowing precisely what’s expected from them. Barnes doesn’t get 2 mil for coaching PE where he’s hoping the right guy gets fouled.

mpayne, I’d agree with you if J’Covan had been playing all season and had been in situations to make that decision. Like, you know, against Baylor, when he played all of 3 fucking minutes thanks to rick.
So yes, it is rick’s fault.

With 15 seconds left, out of a dead ball, most coaches would make it perfectly clear who they wanted to be fouled.

Stupid decisions by Brown are one of the reasons he sat on the bench for most of the season…lack of coaching maybe, or just a lack of basketball IQ?
Oh well, if Brown doesn’t go off in the 2nd half, we aren’t even playing in OT. Too bad he didn’t get much of a chance

Pat, if you were making 2 million a year, would you leave that up to chance?

Actually, if your a PG and the best FT shooter on the team and played basketball your entire life, you’d pretty much know not to give up the ball if you had any brains…..Such a dumb play…..

Oh, and a stupid decision by Brown in giving up the ball to Johnson.

Be nice if we’d coached our 90 percent foul shooter not to give the ball up.

Well if you had read it all the way, you would’ve noticed this little tidbit:
In the second part I’ll do my best to give an outline of what exactly is wrong with the program, what we can do to fix it, and then what will probably happen TO fix it.

The line kills us, as it should have.
Fuck Rick Barnes, as this was the worst coaching I have seen in all my years of watching UT sports.
This saved us from Kentucky, but I feel bad for Damo, he was a hell of a Longhorn.
Hook ‘em!
And FUCK RICK BARNES!

So the season ends with missed free throws and shitty defense by Bradley. Pretty fitting.

It’s the one week where Vince could make a home game, so it makes sense.
I hope they save Tommy Nobis for A&M. But since Arkansas was the major rival during his playing days they might pick that one.
He had a famous quote about the Hogs in the SI preview issue before 1965. Texas had lost the National Championship in 1964 with the loss to the Hogs.
When asked by SI if the 1964 loss still bothered him Nobis responded,
“I Think about Arkansas every day.”

I like the Arkansas idea for Nobis. Hopefully it will have the added benefit of helping Mack to focus on this one; maybe Tommy can help Mack better understand the history (read ‘hatred for those bottle-throwing, cousin-kissing, jort-wearing hillbillies’) between Texas and the pigs.
