CapMetro route 670 to detour on way to campus By Sara Schleede @tsaraschleede

Capital Metro bus route 670 will run on a detoured route until the end of the semester in an attempt to mitigate delays for students commuting to campus from Riverside. “We are committed to finding a solution, and we have some more permanent fixes coming in January,” said Lawrence Deeter, principle planner in short range planning at CapMetro. Inbound 670 buses will now travel along Pleasant Valley Road instead of I-35, but the bus will still make all of its usual stops. The outbound route will remain the same. “There won’t be new schedules or anything like that because it is a detour,” Deeter said. “It’s a pilot to see if this can improve reliability.” This follows CapMetro’s addition of four 670 buses during peak times in the morning and afternoon earlier this month to reduce overcrowding. “Even after we put those additional trips in, it seemed like the morning got better, but the afternoon buses were still not coming when they’re supposed to be there,” Deeter said. Deeter said CapMetro staff will monitor the route for the next few weeks, and the detour could become permanent in January if it works well. Social work senior Danielle Redhead said the 670 bus has been unreliable since she moved to Riverside two years ago, but overcrowding and increased wait times have worsened since CapRemap in June. Redhead said sometimes there were as many as 40 or 50 students fighting to get on one bus. “At most I had to wait 25 or

Defensive backs Kris Boyd, Josh Thompson and Chris Brown began dancing on the sideline in celebration of what they had long set out to accomplish: earning a shot to play for the Big 12 Championship. The Longhorns have shown they’re not a bunch likely to escape any matchup unscathed — not against Oklahoma, not against West Virginia, not even against 3–8 Kansas, the lone team remaining between them and a berth in the conference title game. Despite an abundance of nicks and bruises on the narrow, winding road throughout the regular season, the game culminated with Texas emerging with a 24-17 win over the Jayhawks on Friday, awarding the Longhorns an opportunity to

We’ve had some bumps in the road, but ultimately we’ve gotten to our goal and it’s really exciting.” Texas’ offensive sputtered throughout the first two quarters after an early 98-yard drive capped off with a touchdown connection between Ehlinger and wide receiver Collin Johnson. The Longhorns failed to generate much production on the offensive end beyond the early score, entering the locker room at halftime with just a 7-0 lead. The Longhorns had more

success in the remaining minutes of action, jumping out to a 21-7 advantage. The tide would turn in the Jayhawks’ favor, however, as Ehlinger threw his second interception of the afternoon, putting Kansas in an excellent position to slice the deficit in half. The quiet growth of momentum in a mostly empty David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium was silenced two plays later by linebacker Jeffrey McCulloch after he tipped a pass from Kansas quarterback Peyton Bender straight up into the air, landing the ball within only his grasp. McCulloch planted upfield and went off to the races, returning it 65 yards deep into Kansas territory.

Littlefield Fountain operates under regulations to preserve appearance

West Campus burglaries increase in fall semester

By Gracie Awalt @gracieawalt5

Since March 1933, an estimated 64,000 gallons of city water have been running continuously through the Littlefield Fountain in front of the UT Tower. The Littlefield Fountain has several rules and regulations that guide its maintenance and function. Charlie Cromartie, south campus maintenance supervisor for Facilities Services, said the fountain is continuously circulating water to prevent algae growth. “When the water is not recirculating, it takes on outside dust and dirt and whatever blows in there, and that enhances the algae growth,” Cromartie said. “We circulate it and keep it moving because it keeps (the water) in a cleaner state than what it would be just sitting there stagnant.” Cromartie said the fountain sprays water upward using the “spray nozzle system” only on special campus occasions, such as commencement and the Gone to Texas celebration. He said the water is also turned on by request when the campus is filmed by a news outlet. The fountain is cleaned each spring and manual labor is used to remove algae inside the pool of the fountain, Cromartie said. “We use brushes and brooms,” Cromartie said. “What we try to do is scrub down the inner surface to remove all the algae growth.” Cromartie said the brass statue itself, like all other campus statues, is cleaned by an outside organization of specialists because the metals require certain

cleaning methods. He said in the event of a graffiti incident, such as the one in March when the fountain was found marked with red spray paint, Facilities Services consults with the campus architect to determine the best removal method to avoid surface deterioration. Cromartie said a request was made by a student organization last semester to dedicate the Littlefield Fountain as a graduation celebration place. He said after the request was approved, facilities workers used nets that would usually be used to clean swimming pools to remove bottle corks and confetti. “We always discourage any kind of wading in the water because on certain occasions maybe someone threw a glass

bottle in there and you could slip and fall and cut yourself,” Cromartie said. “We can’t verify that the water is 100 percent safe if there is any consumption of water.” Jim Nicar, a former UT historian and curator of the UT History Corner blog, said soon after the Littlefield Fountain was opened in 1933, the fountain contained cattails, lily pads and other varieties of flowering water plants until at least the 1950s. “Not too long ago, I tweeted to the UT Facilities office as to whether the plants might ever return,” Nicar said in an email. “They kindly replied that, at

There have been 22 more burglaries in the West Campus area during this fall semester compared to last fall, according to the Austin Police Department crime viewer. There have been 69 burglaries in the West Campus area this year since Aug. 29 — including 47 vehicle burglaries, 15 residence burglaries and seven nonresidence burglaries. During the same time period last year, there were 47 burglaries, including 25 vehicle burglaries, 15 residence burglaries and seven nonresidence burglaries. APD Sgt. Jim Kettleman, supervisor of the APD residential burglary unit, said most burglars are gaining entry to a car or house through unlocked doors or windows. “There is a higher percentage of (burglaries) occurring down in the West Campus area because the people there are more likely to have a door left unlocked,” Kettleman said. “There isn’t as much diligence among students to make sure the doors are locked when everybody’s

going to bed at night.” Kettleman said APD suggests keeping doors and windows locked and closing all garage doors to prevent home and car burglaries. “If your door is unlocked they can simply open the door, walk in, pick up a few things and then simply walk right back out,” Kettleman said. “If they have to knock your front door down, you’re going to hear them … and you’re going to realize that you’ve been victimized.” While the UT Police Department does not usually investigate crimes off campus, Chief David Carter said UTPD has representatives for different districts around campus who can provide advice and support if a student is a victim of a burglary. “We may not be the ones that investigate the crime, but we can certainly help students and work with them to connect to APD or exchange information or assist in whatever way we can,” Carter said. Kettleman said it is important to report all burglaries, even if the possibility of getting the items back is unlikely because the police will not increase patrols if they don’t receive more reports.

Student-run bicycle coffee shop opens next spring By Emily Hernandez @emilyhernandez

Students can be on the lookout for a mobile coffee shop mounted on a bicycle selling cold brew coffee next semester. BrewBike is a student-run coffee company founded in 2015 at Northwestern University in Illinois by Lucas Philips. Randy Paris and Eli Goldstein later joined Philips to help him run the business. Business freshman Sarah Lee is overseeing the company’s expansion to UT. “My goal for BrewBike is (for it) to be the go-to coffee option for UT students and staff. Not only is it coffee, (but) I want it to be like a community, where we’re not only helping us, we’re there for the students,” UT campus CEO Lee said. “It’s an outlet for UT students to gain business skills and develop that entrepreneurial spirit.” The mobile shop is an industrial bike “retrofitted” to serve cold brew coffee from kegs to provide affordable, delicious coffee and reduce the time students wait in line for coffee, BrewBike launch director Goldstein said. Lee said students should spend about 40 seconds from the time they approach the bike to the time they get coffee. “It’s … specifically crafted for college students who are hustling through their day every day, who need to get stuff done and don’t have time to wait 25 minutes in line at Starbucks for coffee,” Goldstein said. Lee said she hopes to officially open the mobile shop in the spring semester, likely along Speedway. The company only takes credit card, and the price of

Planned renovations to the locker rooms and minor infrastructure inside Gregory Gymnasium are in the works and are expected to start by the end of next semester. “It’s kind of a big puzzle right now, so unfortunately there isn’t a lot of detail,” said Jennifer Speer, Recreational Sports senior communications director. “Our goal is, toward the end of spring, to have a solidified plan for the first couple of projects and the schedule.” In February, RecSports director Tom Dison provided an overview for plans to update infrastructure within Gregory Gym at a faculty committee meeting. The initial plans were created after RecSports and Project Management and Construction Services requested a building assessment of the gym to be performed by Jacobs Engineering Firm. The assessment determined minor renovations need to be done to certain areas, including elements of its air conditioning system, plumbing, structural foundation, roofing and electrical equipment. “(As) with all of our RecSports

facilities, we have a building assessment done from time to time to make sure we have a plan for infrastructure things,” Speer said. “Anything from lighting to roofs to HVAC systems — those types of things. We want to make sure we have a replacement plan and funding resources set up for that.” Peter Schaack, building manager for Gregory Gym, said RecSports is still reviewing the assessment to determine what features need to be updated and how much it will cost. “We don’t have a specific list of items to be updated at this time,” Schaack said in an email. “Funding will be determined when Recreational Sports has a finalized renovation list with estimated prices.” Speer said the biggest and first change to Gregory Gym that will be made is the locker room renovation project. “We know we need to update them,” Speer said. “Needs have changed both in the functionality of locker rooms. We’re talking about how to bring students to the table for feedback on what the new locker rooms would look like, what amenities are needed in them … that (is a) process we’re just starting now.” Victor Olivo, a microbiology alumnus and current software

Public relations junior Ashley Stone uses the 670 bus to get to and from campus each day. She said she frequently had to drive to campus to get to class on time when the bus did not arrive on schedule. She said she is looking forward to seeing if the detour improves service. “I think changing the route to campus will help tremendously,” Stone said. “However, I would say about half of my personal complaints are about the 670 coming from campus to the apartments, which is not changing in the detour.” Redhead said she is pleased CapMetro was so receptive to student complaints. She will be among a group of students meeting with CapMetro in February to discuss the changes’ effects. “Now it’s just a waiting game to see how the detour goes and what other things we can work on,” Redhead said.

“It was an enormous play in the game,” head coach Tom Herman said. “Our quarterback hadn’t thrown an interception — I think it was a Big 12 record — since Week One. To go out there and throw two, he’ll tell you he didn’t have his best stuff, but for our defense to have our back and Jeff to make an incredible play like that, get it down to where we could take some

time off the clock … it was a huge play in the game.” The Jayhawks remained in contention until the final minutes though, scoring a touchdown and a field goal on back-to-back possessions, bringing the lead back to within one score. But Humphrey’s recovery on Kansas’ last onside attempt sealed its fate and now sends Texas into postseason play with a three-game win streak. After being written off by fans and experts alike following a season-opening defeat at the hands of Mary-

land, the Longhorns finally earned something to show for their success with a trip to Arlington slated after Friday’s win. “This team has grown up quite a bit,” Herman said. “To go from winning six straight to then losing two games by four points back-to-back weeks but then rallying back, knowing that we could still accomplished a lot of really cool things, it’s been fun to be a part of.” Herman continued, “I do need a pacemaker or some blood pressure medicine, but these guys are great, they

love each other, they love their coaches and it’s been fun to watch them grow.” Despite making enough good plays to leave Lawrence as a Big 12 title contender, Texas will ultimately be judged upon the result of next Saturday’s matchup against Oklahoma at AT&T Stadium, where it will attempt to win a conference championship for the first time since 2009. “We’re not going there just to play,” p Herman said. “Our goal, now that m we’ve reached that game, is certainly to o go 1–0 in that game.”

“If the department’s going to use data to drive our response, we need good data,” Kettleman said. “It helps us to get actual report about crimes in the area.” Joell Sullivan-McNew, vice president of parent safety group SafeHorns, said she is concerned about the increased reports and hopes UTPD and APD will increase communication with students about burglaries. “Even if students sometimes leave their doors unlocked, the fact that people

present, there aren’t any funds to purchase and maintain aquatic plants for the fountain. In other words, it’s not in the budget.”

Farahnak said. “If someone was going to permanently alter how it looks, then that is pretty serious.” Farahnak said if he were to catch someone vandalizing a bathroom, he would, at minimum, issue a citation. However, biomedical engineering freshman Claire Speight said bathroom graffiti on campus is both funny and inspirational. “I don’t think it’s a problem personally,” Speight said. “It’s kind of like a forum where people post their problems and other people post motivational stuff.” Speight said the only reason to clean up bathroom graffiti is to make room for more. “It’s fun to read,” Speight said. “Once it gets too busy, you can’t put anything else on it, so then you have to clean it up, so people can put more graffiti on the walls.”

Ashley Akin, finance and business honors junior, said she enjoys when the fountain looks clean and would consider jumping in the fountain when she graduates. “This whole area is the best part of UT,” Akin said “I think every student considers jumping in the fountain. It’s a very classic photo.”

Manor said. “But we don’t want people to feel like they can’t apply for financial aid if they miss Jan. 15. There’s always going to be financial aid available.” Much of the University’s funding for financial aid is not tied to the Jan. 15 deadline, so students do not need to worry if they miss that date, Manor said. The early FAFSA will take tax information from two years before, Manor said students and parents do not need to rush to file their taxes. Manor said the changes will likely allow high school students more time to decide which college to attend based on how much aid they receive. “I think it has to do with encouraging schools to see if they can give earlier packages while admitting students,” Manor said. “If you can give them a financial aid package earlier, they may commit to your school earlier.” Athletic training junior Whitley Sepulveda said the late FAFSA deadline delayed her college decision. “For me, I didn’t get back my FASFA info until late March, and I didn’t decide until mid April on what school I wanted to go to,” Sepulveda said. “The money was a huge deal for me.”

Make time for meaningful service this winter By Molly Bolf and Jennifer Liu Forum Editors

As the semester comes to a close and deadlines abound, students must prepare for final papers and projects in classes, as well as fulfill social and service hours in student organizations. However, students should approach service opportunities as an opportunity to use their time and talents to help their communities, not just to check off a requirement or decorate a resume. The last day of classes at UT is Dec. 10 — this means students

have over a month to unwind with their friends and families, prepare for the new semester and discover new ways to give back. While the holiday season is one of the most exciting times of the year, it can be a stressful time for many people in our communities. Biting temperatures endanger Austin’s vast homeless population of over 2,000 people, holiday expenses are challenging to manage for needy families and tuition bills for the coming semester are a financial burden to some of our fellow students. Students who are willing and able have the opportunity to serve in all kinds of different capacities, and finding a starting point has

never been easier. Sarah Davidson, a rhetoric and writing senior and a member of the Texas Orange Jackets, recommends that students start serving their community at home. She urges students to lend a helping hand to their local schools, community centers and libraries when home for the break. She claims that students themselves also benefit from this kind of volunteering. Students can discover their own passions and interests and even reflect on their future careers when helping others.

Native Americans shed light on National Day of Mourning By Noelle Henry @noellee.h

The National Day of Mourning, or Unthanksgiving, is a trend gaining increasing recognition throughout America, with places such as San Francisco taking notice of the active protest against November’s biggest holiday. UT’s American Studies department celebrated Unthanksgiving on Monday, Nov. 12, and although there was still a feast, the event served as recognition of the wrongdoings done to Native Americans in the past. Bradley Dixon is a postdoctoral fellow within the history department of the College of Liberal Arts. Dixon, who studied Native American history in the South, said the first National Day of Mourning began in 1970 in Massachusetts after there was much more activism from indigenous people. Frank B. James, the chief of the Wampanoag tribe, held the protest in Plymouth on the day of Thanksgiving, and he wrote a speech for the event. “His speech was plain talk about the Wampanoags and other native people’s view that this

was not a happy day,” Dixon said. “That led to a history of dispossession and loss worth mourning about and thinking about.” UT graduate student Adrienne Sockwell studies 19th century Native American history and said the protest has continued because Native Americans still haven’t received governmental acknowledgment on many issues that were addressed in the speech. Sockwell said people are starting to galvanize around these issues and she thinks the movement is growing. “These are everyday people who still feel like, whether or not they get redress, they want to mark this day as something other than the feast,” Sockwell said. Sockwell said one of the main issues which still has yet to be addressed is the poor conditions of reservations and the dispossession of land. She said these issues have begun to fester and be acknowledged, which has allowed the National Day of Mourning to survive and continue on for so long. UT graduate student Maria Hammack who has lived in North Carolina for some time, said that even there they had a National

Day of Mourning at the courthouse with a minute of silence and a few speakers. “The speeches weren’t necessarily about Native Americans,” Hammack said. “But it was to think about the state of the day and how to unite and face different problems.” Dixon said those who want to get involved should begin by brushing up on the facts and looking at the real origin of Thanksgiving as a holiday and by looking at Native American news outlets. He said the holiday shouldn’t be ignored or uncelebrated. “What it’s about, at least at the minimum, is to give some of your time on the fourth Thursday of November to thinking about Native peoples,” Dixon said. Sockwell said it’s not about thinking about the native peoples as a conquered people, but as people who were integral to the way in which the settlers survived. “If there’s some thanks to be given, one might think about giving thanks to that population of people who were here,” Sockwell said. “(This population) made sure that the people who came on the Mayflower made it.”

People’s contact with the homeless is generally limited to a handful of change and pocket lint. But most often what the homeless get is rolled-up windows and averted eyes. Art from the Streets aims to change that. The annual showcase features artwork by individuals affected by homelessness, much of which is created in a free open studio organized by the organization. The showcase allows artists to sell their work and deconstruct the stigma around homelessness. “People crave acknowledgment,” said Art from the Streets co-founder Heloise Gold. “It’s something very human, to want to be seen, and (Art from the Streets) gives these people that are often ignored a place to be seen.” Gold began the Art from the Streets art showcase with friends in the early ‘90s after passing out sandwiches weekly to the homeless. She wanted to do something to impact the homeless population on a level that went beyond physical needs. “I’m a performance artist, so I appreciate the impact being creative has,” Gold said. “I wanted to do something that would allow the homeless population to experience that.” Gold said the most meaningful thing each year is seeing those who attend the event realize homelessness goes beyond the stereotypes.

these individuals create and are blown away by the talent and reliability of it.” Kelley Worden, executive director of the organization, said community is another major impact of the showcase. “We have an open studio three times a week at the Trinity Center at St. David’s Episcopal Church where we invite these individuals to create,” Worden said.

ONLINE

According to Worden, the open studio is not only for those who have always identified as artistic, but anyone in the homeless population needing a safe place to experience community. “People come in to do larger works, but sometimes people just come in wanting a place to sit, doodle and hang out,” Worden said. “The people who participate really look forward to it. They bond with each other and with the volunteers, too.” Open studio ends in October each year as the team prepares for the showcase and then reopens in January. Worden said during the recess of open studio, people miss that sense of community. “They’re missing each other right now, and we’re missing them,” Worden said. “The showcase is like a big reunion.” Board member Troy Campa has also made meaningful connections with the Austin homeless population through the program. “AFTS has given me the opportunity for relationships with those that find themselves homeless — giving me a much deeper understanding of the issues they face and the reasons they are homeless,” Campa said via email. Campa said in addition to the profit artists make from selling their art, they benefit from increased self-worth. The 2018 Art from the Streets showcase will take place Dec. 1 and 2 at the Austin Convention Center.

eddie gaspar | the daily texan file Texas guard Sug Sutton drives to the basket in a game against McNeese State at the Frank Erwin Center on Nov. 15, 2018. The Longhorns will face UTSA on Nov. 28 before participating in the Big 12/SEC Challenge in December.

Perfection on the Gulf Coast Longhorns win Gulf Coast Showcase with 3-0 performance last weekend. By Stephen Wagner @stephenwag22

he Longhorns capped off a wacky Gulf Coast Showcase tournament with a 72-54 victory over the Fordham Rams on Sunday night, following a nail-biting victory over Quinnipiac and a triumphant blowout over Michigan. Although the undersized Rams weren’t favored to win the game, they weren’t about to go down without a fight.

Fordham shot the lights out in the first quarter, shooting nearly 70 percent from the field with five three-pointers to start the game and jumping out to an early 20-14 lead over the Longhorns before Texas managed to establish a rhythm, but head coach Karen Aston had anticipated this, telling her players to “weather the storm.” While Texas managed to steal back the lead thanks to an 8-2 run, guard Bre Cavanaugh beat the buzzer for the Rams to give Fordham a 23-22 lead at the conclusion of the first quarter. However, the Rams’ stellar shooting wouldn’t last forever. In the second quarter, the Rams shot a mere 25 percent from the field and felt the size difference, getting outrebounded by a 12-3 margin. The rebounding, which allowed the Longhorns to withstand Fordham’s first quarter shooting barrage, spurred Texas into a second quarter lead, complemented by some tenacious defense. “We kind of struggled with rebounding throughout this whole

tournament, we knew everybody was tired and dragging, and we had to find out ‘one more.’ Our one more was rebounding,” said point guard Sug Sutton, who pulled in seven boards of her own. Texas forced nine first-half turnovers by switching between man and zone defense and capitalized on their opportunities, crafting 10 points off of Fordham’s mistakes and allowing only five second-quarter points to take a 38-29 lead into the locker room at the half. While the Rams managed to keep pace with Texas in the third and even trim the lead by two points by the end of the quarter, the Longhorns’ firepower proved to be too much for Fordham as the Horns imposed their will behind seven second-half offensive rebounds and 18 free throw attempts, pushing Texas to a 72-54 victory. With guard Lashann Higgs out of commission for the championship game following an injury against Quinnipiac, the pressure mounted on Sutton to rise to the occasion.

Sutton did just that, scoring a career-high 17 points on 7-of-11 shooting from the field, including a pair of three-pointers to go along with seven rebounds and three assists on her way to being named tournament MVP. “I put (the team) on my back for this tournament when (Higgs went down),” Sutton said. “I feel more comfortable doing whatever I need to do for this team.” Clearly thrilled by the fact Texas football is back in the Big 12 Championship, Aston continued her praise of Sutton and said, “She’s taking ownership of the quarterback position.” “It’s really obvious that Sug stepped forward this weekend as the leader of our team,” Aston said. Now, while the Longhorns fly back to Austin victorious, they’ll have some much needed time off before their 11 a.m. game Wednesday against UTSA at the Frank Erwin Center. “(The tournament) was really tough on our bodies,” Sutton said. “I’m just so proud of this team. It was tough on our bodies, but we got through it.”

Texas upsets Tar Heels, fall to Spartans in Las Vegas Invitational By Robert Larkin @r_larkintexas

If anyone inside Orleans Arena questioned who the best player on the court was Thursday night, Kerwin Roach II reminded them with under nine minutes remaining in the game. With the Longhorns leading No. 7 North Carolina by six, the senior guard called for the ball as he crossed half court. He eyed his defender, quickly passed him by on a dribble to his right and took off for the rim. And when the Tar Heels’ Cameron Johnson skied to reject his attempt, Roach simply brushed him aside and added him to his evergrowing highlight reel of posterizing dunks instead. It was the high point during an evening when the Tar Heels simply couldn’t find an answer for him. Roach collected a career-high 32 points, six rebounds and seven assists to guide the Longhorns to a thrilling 92-89 victory against the Tar Heels at the Las Vegas Invitational. “I always wanted to become this type of player since I was in high school,” Roach told Fox Sports after the game. “It’s my dream … and I’m just happy. I couldn’t do it without my teammates and my coaching staff.” Roach’s 12-of-15 effort from the field was part of the Longhorns’ most efficient offensive showing of the season, as the

Longhorns shot a season-high 52.5 percent from the field and 45.8 percent from behind the three point line. The Longhorns’ winning effort, however, did not come easy, requiring a comeback effort after a slow start. A series of missed shots on the offensive end and an offensive bonanza by North Carolina sparked by guard Coby White allowed the Tar Heels to open up a 17-4 lead through the first five minutes. But the Longhorns responded with a run of their own after finding some rhythm from behind the three-point arc thanks to Coleman and Roach attacking the North Carolina defense. That allowed the Longhorns to go on a 17-6 run that cut the lead to two before taking a one-point lead as both teams entered the break. In the second half, the Longhorns picked up right where they left off, hitting five of their first six attempts from behind the arc. While the Tar Heels responded, Texas collected enough free throws down the stretch to clinch a three-point upset.

Longhorns fall short against Spartans.

The following day, No. 11 Michigan State knocked off Texas, 78-68, in the championship game of the Continental Tire Las Vegas Invitational. Through the first 10 minutes on Friday, the Longhorns appeared ready to put the finishing touches on an impressive weekend in Las Vegas.

ryan lam | the daily texan file Texas guard Kerwin Roach II attempts to keep possession of the ball following a contest from a defender from The Citadel. Through six games in the 2018–19 season, the Longhorns are 5–1.

Texas carried over its strong shooting performance from its win against North Carolina, and made five of its first eight three-point attempts to take a 25-6 lead. The scoring slowed for the Longhorns entering the final minutes of the first half, and Michigan State mounted a run with four three-pointers in just over two minutes. But Texas

maintained a 44-36 lead heading into halftime thanks to a 41.2 shooting percentage from three point range. Michigan State, however, responded strongly after the break, outscoring the Longhorns, 42-24, in the second half en route to the 10-point loss. While the Longhorns entered the tournament as the

only unranked team in the four-team field, Texas’ victory over North Carolina will likely lead to recognition — something that won’t go unnoticed by a team looking to prove itself to the rest of the college basketball landscape. “You’ve got to make them believe,” Roach said. “That’s something we always preach. We got a chip on our shoulder

— our entire team, including me. So that’s all we got to do: Come in, make them believe and play with a chip on our shoulder.” After splitting the two games over the break, the Longhorns move to 5–1 on the season. They’ll return to action Friday against Radford at the Frank Erwin Center for a 6 p.m. tip.
