Vic Schaefer to Texas

[Txhoopsalot]

The last championship they have won in a major sport I believe was football in 2005 and baseball in 2005 and 2006. I believe you were correct that they have never won a basketball championship on either the men or women’s side.

Almost never. Won a women's basketball title with Coach Conradt in 1986. (Guess that qualifies for when Coach Royal and dinosaurs roamed the earth.) Last won a volleyball title in 2012, but the team is a frequent final four team and is enormously popular on campus. Many other titles in sports such as golf, tennis, swimming and diving, track. Looking to be in the final four in wbb under direction of Schaefer soon.

Ah. I overlooked that one. Obviously nothing is guaranteed but Coach Schaefer gives you one of the best chances you will have in WBB.

That sucks big time. I don’t know what he can accomplish at Texas that he couldn’t at MSU.

I hate 2020

Agreed. I don't think many people realize how many great athletes come out of the state of Mississippi. Any coach has fertile recruiting ground.

I think it's a great hire Tx. It should be interesting to watch the recruiting battle between him and Kim. There are a lot of tall trees in Texas.

He is a really good recruiter or someone on his staff is. Maybe he could get over the hump with Miss St like he never could with Louisville. They’d be a better offensive team with him but way loss focus on the defensive end. I think he has a better chance of winning right now with St than Louisville

3 Final 4's and 2 runner ups at Louisville. Vic was also runner up twice at MSU but never cut down the nets. I'm not seeing the difference, or why MSU would give him a better chance than Louisville.
