Houston and Texas lead the Lone Star State with three All-Texas player selections each.

Texas made its first Elite Eight since 2008 under interim head coach Rodney Terry.

Sure, the State of Texas may only have two of the seven original teams in the Field of 68 left in the NCAA Tournament. But there are still plenty of notable Texas High School basketball alumni to watch in the Sweet 16.

It's a shame the NCAA Tournament won't have much Lone Star flavor this year in particular since the Final Four is happening in Dallas. But Texas in particular is a team that's built to win in March, with its emphasis on defense, so don't count out a Longhorns appearance in Dallas in a few weeks.

For the second season in a row, the Texas Longhorns have lost in the Elite Eight. This time, the loss came against Stanford, the defending national champions and a team that Texas had already defeated once this season. So, what happened?

There are a lot of teams in this state, so we're not going to include every player in this discussion. Instead, I've narrowed it down to a handful of point guards and will look at the pros and cons for each one before coming to a decision.

It's another week of Stock Up, Stock Down here, and we're going to spend a little extra time than usual looking at one topic: the two games between Baylor and Texas. 

Baylor lost to Kansas State this week, something that never happens. And when I say never, I'm only slightly exaggerating.

How has Vic Schaefer taken a young Longhorns team that overachieved at the end of last year and kept that momentum going while losing three key pieces?
