Basketball Recruiting Information on Football Board

Some people, yes. But not everyone. If you told me dropping football would guarantee 50 years of high-level basketball, I'd take it in a heartbeat. I think (and have always thought) basketball is a better fit for small private schools. (Plus I just prefer basketball...)

But I'd really like to "have my cake and eat it, too". I'm hoping football continues to improve, although it will certainly be a longer process.

Same exact thought. I am a basketball guy through and through.

Agreed 100%

This is Dallas (even Ft. Worth). It's not a basketball town, it's not a football town, either.

It's a winner's town. Period.

I sometimes think this town would support professional tiddlywinks, as long as the local team was winning.

This is Texas, we will always prefer to be a Football school.

I would drop Football if we could get 50 years of top 25 teams and elite basketball too. But I will always have that itch and would like football to hit top 25 as well.

It will be slow, but we will get there.

Heard about Mike and Mickey but did you know they have a third brother McKinnley who is a Sophomore

There are nine siblings in all and they all start with m.

Yeah, McKinley is gonna be a stud athlete as well the one in 6th grade I believe. The whole family is athletic as hell.

The 6th grader is a real gamer and is coached on the AAU level by ex SMU baller, Rod Hampton.
