Have any other season ticket holders received an email about this? According to the article, season ticket holders could buy starting today. I haven't gotten an email, and when I log into my account there's no option for this game.

FYI for season ticket holders--I never got an email, but I was able to log in to my account and purchase tickets today.

One of the things I liked most about the schedule was Vic paying respect to JSU and scheduling a game at theirs.

In addition to Jackson State, we will be playing two other teams from the SWAC; Alabama State and Southern. The interviews of each of the three coaches can be found in this link.


  • Alabama State HC Freda Freeman: 12:30
  • Jackson State HC Tomekia Reed: 1:02
  • Southern HC Carlos Funchess: 2:05:40
Everyone knows what a tough opponent Jackson State was last year. That will likely be the case this season as Coach Tomekia Reed mentioned in her interview that this year's team is the most talented she's ever coached. She has two post players at 6'5 and 6'7.

I watched the highlights from last season’s game against JSU and noticed all 4 Texas players lauded for their play in that game transferred out. Weird.

It was under Season Renewal Application.

I recall one year ago Creme had us somewhere between a 7-9 seed; most of us on here knew we'd be so much better. And, we earned a #2 seed last March.

It's all fun.
 
I remember this story about Ashley Bonneville, Leander high school basketball, baseball and volleyball player, saying she would try to walk on at Texas. She was 25-5A 2nd team all-district as a senior, Gisella was MVP (sophomore).

Tech, TCU and Okie State with none. Gonna be a long year for those 3.
 
I try my best to keep my expectations for Texas WBB low, thus avoiding disappointment. And I do wish Charlie Creme had not predicted Texas as a one seed. But I can't entirely contain my excitement about this season. I just can't wait to see what kind of team this group of talented, hard-working players becomes.
 
Creme had us #4 in his way too early Top 25 back in April. So, he's been on the Texas bandwagon even before we reeled in the transfers. I'm guessing back-to-back Elite 8 appearances makes the media believe in you!

Obviously, being one of the #1 national seeds is supposed to give you the easiest path (on paper) to the Final Four. If we end up a #2 seed, the key is not to be opposite #1 South Carolina in the Greenville, SC regional.

If we can just manage to get to the Final Four in Dallas, a huge homecourt advantage awaits us! So, yes, so many reasons to be excited as we look forward to the start of the season and what could be in store for our program come March/April!

*Aaliyah Moore is a post player.
*Agreed... that's also the starting lineup that I've been expecting.
*Yes, 5th year seniors are wisely taking advantage of that extra year of education.

Can't wait for the season to kick off!:hookem2:
