Pat Knight will return for his third full season as men's basketball coach at Texas Tech. Tech athletic spokesman Chris Cook confirmed that Knight will be back. The story was first reported today by the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal, quoting Tech athletic director Gerald Myers. In reality, there was little doubt that Knight would return, even after a seven-game losing streak late in the season. The Red Raiders are 17-15 and likely bound for the NIT after...
After last night's 86-67 loss to Baylor, Rick Barnes tried to rally his troops for next week's NCAA Tournament. Texas will likely be seeded in the middle of the pack when the selections are announced Sunday. "I really hope our guys will get excited about the fact that we'll be a part of something every team in college basketball wants to be a part of," Barnes said. "You do not take that for granted. It's...

Maybe they just like to make things interesting or entertaining. Maybe they just get bored. Or maybe they're just really good at closing things out. On Thursday, the No. 23 Texas A&M Aggies played another close, hard-fought battle that they seem prone to do every time they step on the court. In the 70-64 victory over Nebraska, the Aggies got out to a double-digit lead minutes into the second half, yet took the foot off...
Bad blood swirled in and out of the Texas-Baylor game Thursday night. Four minutes into the game, Texas' J'Covan Brown and Baylor's LaceDarius Dunn were called for a double technical when they willingly involved themselves in an unnecessary verbal altercation between UT's Damion James and the Bears' Tweety Carter. With Dunn having three fouls, Baylor coach Scott Drew was forced to bench his go-to guard for the rest of the half. Dunn came back with... March 11, 2010
In a report on OrangeBloods.com, post-game videos taken by Texas Tech film crews during the 2009 season show former Red Raiders football coach Mike Leach directing players on how to pray and also threatening the "living situation" of some players because, "Last time I checked, we're paying the (expletive) bills around here." Here is a link to video following a game against against Kansas. OrangeBloods.com obtained the videos from Texas Tech through the Texas Open...
The absence of sophomore point guard Dash Harris clearly affected No. 23 Texas A&M in its 70-64 victory over Nebraska. Without Harris, sidelined because of a right wrist injury, the Aggies' offense seemed to lack motion. But, as has been the case all season, senior Donald Sloan stepped up his game down the stretch. He scored 23 points to lead the team. The Aggies seemingly countered every Nebraska run with a 3-point shot. A&M finished...
Red Raider basketball coach Pat Knight and his team have a good chance of making the NIT after a Big 12 Conference tournament win against Colorado and an impressive showing against No. 1 Kansas. But Knight looked ahead to next season, reflected on the regular season, conference tournament and his two-year head coaching career during his postgame conference after losing to Kansas in Kansas City, Mo., Thursday. "These guys have been a joy to coach,"...
SMU's season ended with a 69-53 loss to Central Florida last night in the first round of the Conference USA tournament. It marked the fourth straight season SMU lost in the opening round and the fourth straight sub-.500 season (14-17) for fourth-year coach Matt Doherty. He is 47-75 on the Hilltop. I'll have a comprehensive story in tomorrow's paper on what's next for SMU basketball, but for now, know this. Doherty will indeed be back...
Last year during the Big 12 men's tournament, Texas' Rick Barnes told The New York Times that he looks down on Scott Drew for his negative recruiting. Barnes disapproves of A.A.U. coaches being hired to help land recruits, which is something Drew did in an attempt to land Kentucky's John Wall. "There's a line that [Drew] knows that he can't cross with me," Barnes told The New York Times last year. "He knows that. He...
Texas A&M point guard Dash Harris will miss today's game with Nebraska in the Phillips 66 Big 12 Championship. Harris suffered a bone bruise on his right wrist and has been in a soft cast the past several days. He's listed as day-to-day for the rest of the tournament, according to an A&M basketball spokesman. A sophomore from Los Angeles, Harris averaged 5.0 points and 3.3 assists this season....
Texas Tech played the No. 1 team in the nation tough, but ultimately lost 80-68 to Kansas in the quarterfinal round of the Big 12 men's tournament. Texas Tech had Kansas within two points in the final six minutes, but the Jayhawks advance to the semifinal round. The Red Raiders probably helped their chances at making the NIT tournament with a strong effort against Kansas. Texas Tech finished its season with a 17-15 record. Five... |
