Something that was much needed for the Texas basketball program actually came through on Feb. 19. When Texas knocked off the TCU Horned Frogs to complete the season sweep on Wednesday night, they also kept at least all the pressure off the shoulders of their head coach Shaka Smart. After the embarrassing 81-52 loss at the hands of the 11-14 Iowa State Cyclones, Smart was catching all kinds of fire.
Now, the Texas Longhorns basketball program needs to keep winning games to at least move into the position as a bubble team for the NCAA Tournament.
