The NBA should be embarrassed by this officiating in the most consequential game in the NBA season. Wow.

No!!!!!

A sad day in Austin history. The lot of the Chili’s at 45th & Lamar is up for sale.

Here’s a link to the listing: https://t.co/lAxoh2lwlr

The listing says the lot adjacent to the Chili’s is also up for sale, and can be purchased together or separately.

@ChrisOgdenUT we need guys like @_elijahhh5 at @TexasMBB! Homegrown kid, proven winner, mentally tough competitor, and an athletic and skilled baller with a chip on his shoulder. Don’t let him leave the state!

Proud of @TexasMBB, but that was objectively bad officiating in the end as the flopper #4 pushed like a lineman to grab the board and get the tip in. Hate to see refs impact big games like this, but you can’t control that. Great effort my guys! Get us a few more studs like @_elijahhh5 and keep @dai1yn and @MVokietaitis8 around next season and great things could happen on the 40!

@CoachMiIIer__ @TexasMBB @ChrisOgdenUT Good luck at the SEC tourney! Let’s get it fellas!

Also, if you haven’t figured it out yet, @_elijahhh5, who is headed to his second straight 5A state championship, is a legit big time college point guard and scorer from my backyard in Beaumont, Texas. He needs to be in the ATX next season! Don’t sleep on him! Stone cold killer.

Somewhere in this country a two year old walked into daycare having never seen an OU touchdown against Texas.

This angle of the game-tying TD is incredible 🤯

It also touches on profitability (or lack thereof!)

@BearBetsPod @geoffschwartz @spshoot Gonna age like raw milk buried in a steaming manure pile.

@carebearkieran But the D looks more legit than I thought they would.

My dream of @KDTrey5 returning to Texas for three years of Nattys at the @MoodyCenterATX is over!

The @NCAA has not and will not grant eligibility to any prospective or returning student-athletes who have signed an @NBA contract (including a two-way contract). As schools are increasingly recruiting individuals with international league experience, the NCAA is exercising discretion in applying the actual and necessary expenses bylaw to ensure that prospective student-athletes with experience in American basketball leagues are not at a disadvantage compared to their international counterparts. Rules have long permitted schools to enroll and play individuals with no prior collegiate experience midyear.

While the NCAA has prevailed on the vast majority of eligibility-related lawsuits, recent outlier decisions enjoining the NCAA on a nationwide basis from enforcing rules that have been on the books for decades -- without even having a trial -- are wildly destabilizing. I will be working with DI leaders in the weeks ahead to protect college basketball from these misguided attempts to destroy this American institution.
