Texas Claims Share of Big 12 Conference Tournament Title

The Texas Longhorns shocked the college basketball world by winning a share of the Big 12 Conference Tournament without making a single basket. The Big 12 Tournament was cancelled due to COVID-19 precautions just before Texas and Texas Tech were scheduled to tip off, thus landing the Longhorns in an eight-way tie for first place. With no mention of make-up dates, Shaka Smart’s crew has now won the last two post-season tournaments they have entered. “Clearly, Shaka Smart has turned things around at Texas and deserves another year” Texas AD Chris Del Conte said to reporters through the transparent wall of his hermetically sealed Sprint Center luxury suite.
