It is reported that the Texas Longhorns are going to decide whether the Big 12 stays together or breaks apart.

Texas is the most sought after team in conference expansion, and should they choose to leave the Big 12, it will be a domino effect.

The Longhorns would likely leave the conference for the Pac-10, which has already brought in Colorado.

They are looking to bring in six total teams from the Big 12, which would make the Pac-10 a 16-team conference.

That would decimate the Big 12 and force other conferences to also look at adding more schools.

Oklahoma State forward James Anderson has announced his intentions to enter the NBA Draft.

Anderson was one of the top scorers in the country in leading his team to the NCAA tournament.

A poor performance in the first round game let to the Cowboys’ ouster and questions about Anderson’s NBA potential.

Anderson said he was so disappointed in the way the season ended that he almost returned to school.

He is expected to go in the first round, but his pre-draft workouts will take on a large role in shaping where he is selected.

Oklahoma State’s stay in the NCAA Tournament came to an end thanks to a strong showing by Georgia Tech from the free-throw line.

Time and time again in Friday’s first-round NCAA contest in Milwaukee, the Cowboys sent the Yellow Jackets to the line. Tech delivered, hitting 24-of-25 from the stripe in sending Oklahoma State home for the season, 64-59.

Oklahoma State (22-11) held Tech to without a field goal for the final eight minutes. But the Cowboys couldn’t take advantage. James Anderson, third in the nation in scoring, scored just 11 points on 3-of-12 shooting. Obi Muonelo finished with only 10 points.

The Cowboys hit only 6-of-22 shots from 3-point range. That was enough of an opening for Tech to steal this one.

Oklahoma State finished the season with two straight losses.

The Oklahoma State Cowboys used a strong offensive performance to knock off the No. 1 Kansas Jayhawks, 85-77.

The Cowboys lead nearly reached 20 at times, which forced the Jayhawks to start gambling to try to get back into the game.

James Anderson had another monster game, finishing with 27 points, eight rebounds, three assists, two steals and two blocks.

The huge upset led to pandemonium on the court after the game as students rushed out of the stands and onto the floor.

You better believe that Oklahoma State is one of those teams that no one wants to see in their bracket come NCAA tournament time.
