Basketball:
Bradley or Hamilton? In an ideal world they are both back next season. Withought knowing how well they are responding to Barnes' style or what kind of draft grade they are looking for it's hard to project what they will do.

Well, WTF was that? A train wreck is what. That’s how the entire Texas basketball season can be described.
