The "Studying Student"...

Print...can you believe some student was studying at the basketball game after perhaps the biggest dunk of the College Basketball season? Well, you shouldn't, because it was me, and it didn't happen.
That shot was taken EIGHTY MINUTES PRIOR to the tip of the basketball game and was the brainstorm of some brilliant ESPN camera man. He asked the students to start cheering, so I went to close my book, but he said, "No, you're fine. Just keep doing what you're doing. I'm going to get these ladies cheering, then I'll pan to you to close it out." Of course, I was like, whatever, and went back to taking notes in my property book. I shut my book 40 minutes prior to tip...
In reality, my ankle is the size of a golf ball right now, after I twisted it while in the process of going absolutely out-of-my-mind celebrating the Dexter dunk.
I'm sure that was a cute segment for ESPN and will spawn a ton of hilarious commentary from our rivals about our boring and nerdy students. It just flat-out isn't true...

His credentials are impeccable
This is perhaps the best Texas hoops fan on the planet.
But damn that's funny. The irony is just delicious.
Next time they need to get you in your element as the Dancin' Fool.
It seemed pretty obvious to be pregame
There were no fans outside of students at the game. Seemed to me that the shots were taken well before the game started.
question
Are you the guy that breaks it down during the Wabash Cannonball dance?
That would be me...
...I'm just annoyed that I keep getting phone calls from people asking about it.
Anyone who knows me should know it's the LAST thing I would be doing during a basketball game...
Next time, bring a porno mag.
Whether you like it or not
It's still pretty symbolic of the lack of energy in a typical UT basketball crowd.
I just found it funny that some people call the Erwin Center "The Library" and then I see (during the 2nd half) a picture of someone studying. How fitting.
But in reality, too bad there's not more fans at the game like txtwstr7.
