Longhorns riding high to Final Four.(Knight Ridder Newspapers)
Byline: Mike Jones
This is Texas' first trip to the Final Four in the modern era of college basketball, and getting there has been the focus of coach Rick Barnes' recruiting. It is the dream on which he has based his program and what attracted many of the players on his 10-deep roster.
"This means a lot," point guard T.J. Ford said, "to know this will be very important for (Barnes') career and for ours."
Junior guard Royal Ivey said the fact that the Longhorns are going to the Final Four has "hit me right now. This is a big accomplishment that we've been working toward all year long. It was one of our goals, and now we've made it. I'm elated."
