Hmmm. I'm very surprised.

I thought that was already out there. I've mentioned it before on here.

I'm not surprised.

Barnes has publicly praised Ogden for his high basketball IQ and nobody loves The University of Texas more than Chris.

well, now it's out there again.

 

[SL Xpress]

Yep. It is. I didn't think of it as much of an announcement.

It's a semi-announcement. Or maybe a pronouncement.

Either way

is in order.

Pretty sure it was known the minute McDonald left. I saw Chris at the Spurs/Sonics game Friday and congratulated him. He knew what I was talking about so it's not like it was a surprise to him.

Anyways, Congrats Chris. He will get his shot a head job before too long. I think he will be highly successful as well. He has a great personality and rapport with kids so he will be a great recruiter. Combine that with his knowledge of the game and I think he is a young "up and comer" in the college ranks.

Was out there but maybe some people just didn't want to believe it.

Anyways, congrats to Chris. Hopefully he can teach Chip Chapman and other big men to hit three-pointers. Just kidding... if the staff thinks he's ready, then he's ready!

Congrats Chris!! Anyone remember that Longhorn Sportscenter where they go to Ogden's apartment and he answers the door in a towel? Classic comedy.
