Texas teabag. 20 years ago today.

Such a weird call-basket good plus an offensive foul. So glad to see all of these historical events being properly celebrated.

I always just figured they used the first definition when calling this foul.

He was so effin athletic and aggressive. I wish we had a guy like Hakim on the team again. Such a great move and no hesitation. He attacks the rim. What a great play!
I remember Hak as a freshman being so skinny with his spins and just trying to dunk everything. I don't remember ever seeing anyone like him, at least not in orange.
 
It's criminal that Melo only made like one 1st Team AA that year. He should have been consensus.

This game showcased that. He beat down Texas every way possible.

Sometimes I think his dunks overshadowed how good his post moves were. He could jump, but I remember reading that Jeremy McNeil could jump and reach just as high. With that athleticism and his size, you would think he should've been better than Hak, but Hak could just spin and slide around guys when he wasn't jumping over them. If we ever brought an interior guy back to coach postwork, I would want him.
