Posted Dec 18, 2013
Texas has an impressive record, but its best wins to date came against DePaul, Vanderbilt and Temple. The Longhorns’ lone loss occurred against BYU. Jonathan Holmes, a 240-pound forward, averages a team-leading 12.9 points for a balanced Texas attack, and 285-pound center Cameron Ridley is one of four other double-figure scorers. The Longhorns rank fifth nationally in blocked shots. (Fayetteville Observer)
