Texas women's basketball has a chance to win a national title but it must battle the field first. Here is why they can and cannot make the Final Four.

After sneaking into the NCAA Tournament, the Texas Longhorns couldn't take advantage of the opportunity as they fell to the Xavier Musketeers 86-80 loss in the First Four on Wednesday night. Now, the question that has been looming over the program for months takes center stage.

In the aftermath of Texas basketball's brutal postseason loss to Xavier, the Longhorns are reportedly expected to fire head coach Rodney Terry. Texas has struggled mightily during its two full seasons with Terry at the coaching helm.
