This could be a huge year for Texas head coach Shaka Smart as he is often discussed as being on the hot seat. He hasn’t achieved the level of success he had at Virginia Commonwealth University. Despite the fact that he recruits well. Last season they finished 10th in the conference but signed the No. 9 player in the country. In 2019 they were No. 17 according to 247Sports Composite rankings.
Battle up. 🤘
