With Xavier's loss, does that accelerate the timeline for Texas?

If Sean is going to be their choice which everyone has told me that he's the target ... I expect a decision to come from Sean relatively soon ...
Agree. I'd still take him as our HC in a heartbeat if Brad moved on elsewhere. He made some pretty nice adjustments tonight that kept them within striking distance for most of the game. They just ran out of steam at the end. He did a bang up job this year with the limited resources he had to work with this year.
There are quite a few Texas boosters that want to gauge the interest of Self and Underwood ...
But can they afford to wait on Brad if we keep winning and risk ticking off Sean ... I don't think so ...
We should tell Tyler that he needs to tell the boys to just make shots
From what I heard, Sean just has to say yes to Texas. They’ll then fire Terry & announce Sean a few days later
So Sean could be upset knowing he's not their first pick, but is there much to be upset about when it's Self and Underwood ahead of him? Rationally there isn't, but irrationally, what's he gonna do, turn down the Texas job if offered late and stick with Xavier, or is there another school interested in him (withTexas-level money of course)?
Is Texas even open yet? Does Terry have a contract through this or next year?
Yes sir. Brad did great.
Sean Miller or Grant McCasland would be my guess. Miller seems like a no brainer as he’s a proven winner at a big location already.

Except for extreme cases, there’s literally no point in burning bridges, especially in this era of extreme turnover of both coaches and players. You never know what’s gonna happen, so why close doors.

I would agree. I will not say he was out coached because he did not have the quality players we have. I like Brad a lot. Nice guy and good coach. Get rid of Hamer and quit letting your agent look for other jobs and make the statement you are here to stay and all is good.

Yea I have heard the same from a few of my buddies down in Texas. But most of the guys I know want Brad period. They told me it was Brad then Bill then Sean.. I just don't see anyway Bill is moving on from Kansas.
I wouldn’t rather have Miller but I do think he would be a good fit if Underwood chose to leave. I’ll ride with Underwood until he retires or is somewhere else.Lmao, exactly my feelings. Anyone here really would rather have Sean miller now?
Texas always handles their searches like this, they try to find their guy and make him say yes before they make a move
When the "it's all about the tournament" crowd's favorite Brad replacement loses to Brad in the first round of the tournament:
I thought they ran some good things tonight just didn’t score. And their out of bounds plays were superior to ours!How we feelin' about Sean Miller now?
lol. With your connections
, have Sean make a secondary deal with Josh so he’s locked in if Brad leaves! We’re a basketball school, Sean would rather be here anyway!Ryllini

I think everyone should feel exactly how they felt before. Brad is our guy until he isn’t. I’m still thankful every day that we have Brad. Sean is also a very, very good coach. I thought Brad coached a good game last night, but let’s not get it twisted on the caliber of players we have compared to X.How we feelin' about Sean Miller now?
If I had choose between the two, well I will never have to, but I’ll take Brad.
I for one will be more than surprised if Brad doesn’t retire at Illinois.

The timeline will be interesting. Especially if Texas waits until after our game Sunday, which I expect them to do.

- how was I to know, she was with the Russians too?
We should tell Tyler that he needs to tell the boys to just make shots
