1990-1991- 24-9 PENDERS  The Running Horns

All-American Joey Wright was the heart and soul of the team. His mental and physical toughness won many games for the Horns. Albert Burditt, Dexter Cambridge, and Teyon McCoy did a good job of replacing some of the players on the 1989-1990 Horns. Texas ended the season with a loss to St. John’s in the second round of the NCAA tournament. Texas handed Arkansas their only loss of the season. Team finished 23rd in the country.

With the win, UT advanced to the NCAA “Sweet 16” for the first time since the tourney expanded to 64 teams.

The Horn basketball team set attendance records and got great media coverage, but those responsible for ranking teams are not convinced the team is that good and will not place the Horns in the top 25. The biggest fear is that another university would hire Penders – Virginia, Florida, or North Carolina State. UT administration steps up and gives Penders a new 7-year contract worth $750,000 a year. The Horns have 11 – 100 point games.

Unfortunately, Texas and Arkansas were in the same bracket and had to play each other to determine which team would make the Final 4. Arkansas won.

The victory advanced the Horns to the “Elite Eight” for the first time since the tournament expanded to 64 teams. 

Texas is within 3 points of making the Final 4 but loses to Arkansas in the Midwest Regional final 88-85. Penders does not like playing in Fayetteville any more than Abe Lemons did. Penders refers to the town as “Fayettenam.”

Dexter Cambridge states that while in junior college, he received $7,000 from a booster and was temporarily suspended from the team. He says that $2400 was paid for work, and the difference was a bonus for a job well at Lon Morris College that was returned to Lon Morris after the impact on his NCAA eligibility was determined. NCAA accepts his explanation. While Cambridge was out, Coach Penders said:

Horns shared the title with Houston but lost in the SWC postseason tournament.

1994-  23-7  COACH PENDERS

In the mid-1990’s it was Texas basketball Coach Tom Penders who realized that Chris Beard was more a student basketball assistant than the basketball team’s student manager. So it was Penders who put Beard on the coaching Lifer’s path. It was a long, arduous road including Incarnate Word, Abilene Christian, Fort Scott Community College, Seminole State, McMurry, Angelo State, Arkansas Little Rock, UNLV, and Texas Tech.

At Texas Tech, he was an assistant coach under Bobby Knight and Pat Knight before getting the Texas Tech head coaching job and taking the Raiders to the Elite 8 one year and the NCAA finals another year.

MOMENT NO. 45
Mar. 11, 1995: In a contest considered by many to be the greatest game in Southwest Conference history, the Longhorns post a 107-104 overtime win against Texas Tech to win the SWC Tournament title. Freshman Brandy Perryman hit a clutch three-pointer to tie the game at 92-92 with 14 seconds left in regulation, and Terrence Rencher blocked a last-second field goal attempt by Mark Davis to force overtime. The Horns did not miss a shot during the extra session en route to their second straight SWC Tournament crown.

Rencher made the game look easy with his medium-range jumpers and smart passes. Rencher recruited Texas instead of Texas recruiting him. He wanted to be a Longhorn since 1991. Rencher was the best scorer ever in the SWC, averaging 20.8 points a game in 1994.

The other cornerstone for the 1994 team got to Texas circuitously. He started with Angelina Junior College in Lufkin and impressed his coach, and soon receives scholarship offers from Arkansas, Cincinnati, and Texas. He chose Texas and led the nation in steals.

B.J. Tyler leads the SWC n scoring . Tyler made Coach Penders a believer. He said “Tyler was the best defensive and offensive player and raised everyone’s level of play. ” “He is one of the top players in the game and one of the best players I have ever coached. “

Tyler was selected by the Toronto Raptors in the 1995 expansion draft. According to journalist Chris Young’s book Drive, Tyler accidentally fell asleep with a pack of ice on his ankle, causing severe nerve damage. Robbed of the speed that his game was based on, he was subsequently forced to retire.

Texas losing streak against top 25 opponents increases to 13 in a row.

Coach Penders son plays an important role for the longhorns during this season.

Penders suspends Axtell for grades. Assistant Coach Oran gives the information on Axtell to the media which is a clear violation of the privacy laws. Rumors spread of late-night phone calls to players, violations of federal privacy laws, and non-compliance with some NCAA rules. Lawsuits are filed, but none of these allegations are ever proven, and Penders settles with Texas. 

REFLECTION Point – Hall of Honor Inductee TOM PENDERS

Tom Penders restored a lost luster to Texas Basketball when he brought his “Runnin’ ‘Horns” style to Austin for the 1988-89 season. Penders’ up-tempo style not only won games, it captured the excitement of the UT fan base. The success was immediate as in his first season, the Horns went 25-9 and Erwin Center crowds swelled to over 12,000 per game. He left Texas following the 1998 season with a mark of 208-110, good for a winning percentage of .654, which at the time was the most victories and the second-best winning percentage (minimum five seasons) in UT basketball history.

In 1997 Coach Penders is given a raise for his coaching skills, and in 1998 he is fired. How could this happen so quickly?  There were rumors of late-night phone calls to players, violations of federal privacy laws, and non-compliance with some NCAA rules. Lawsuits were filed, but none of the allegations are proven, and Penders leaves Texas. My guess is that Coach Pender’s health situation in 1998 is one of the main reasons for his quick demise. 

As of 1998, Tom Penders was either the first or second-best Texas basketball coach in Longhorn history.  He was an offensive genius with three of his players -Rencher, Mays, and Freeman-  the top scorers in the history of Texas basketball as of 1998. 

However, many of Penders’ detractors were ready for the “next level” of coaching that Penders never reached at Texas. As great as he was, during his years at Texas, his record against ranked teams was an anemic 10-44, and Arkansas dominated the Longhorns in the SWC. Rick Barnes is hired at $700,000 a year to help Longhorn basketball reach the next level.

 A portion of the article and Scandal about Penders

The best little scandal in TexasSPORTS By David Holter Aug 23, 1999, 12:00 AM Sixteen months ago, Tom Penders and Austin, Texas parted ways. Yet, the battle between the University of Texas and its former basketball coach has hardly waned. Two days after their disappointing season ended in a loss to the University of Oklahoma, four University of Texas men’s basketball players came to Athletic Director DeLoss Dodds’ house on March 8, 1998, and expressed their frustration with the program. At this meeting, which Penders did not hear about until days later, guard Luke Axtell said he was inclined to transfer. Axtell was suspended from the team on March 17 for not meeting academic standards, an unusual off-season move. A day later, Axtell’s mid-semester grade report was faxed to KVET, an Austin radio station that also broadcasts UT athletic events. His grades were read on the air while Coach Tom Penders was on vacation in the Caribbean. Penders’ contract was bought out April 2, and his coaching career appeared all but over……….

At the time of Penders’ buyout (for $900,000, says Penders; Dodds disputed that sum to The Washington Post),…… .One player, Brandy Perryman, whose deposition focuses greatly on Penders’ character, said in his deposition that Penders had a sports psychologist speak to the team incessantly and that Penders verbally abused him, calling him late at night and telling him how poorly he played…… “I call players after games. After I watch the tape. What I told Perryman was to get his head out of his ass and be a leader because he was shooting 27 percent.”……

Unless Penders is ever named himself, the issue at hand is merely his good name since his part in the grades release is fairly irrelevant to the defamation of character lawsuit against KVET. ………….

Penders and UT agreed not to sue each other in April 1998. .But most importantly to followers of the Colonials program, Athletic Director Jack Kvancz is a firm believer in his friend Tom Penders.“I researched it the best I could before we hired Tom, and I found nothing,” Kvancz told The Washington Post. “When Texas bought him out, it was a pretty good sign to me that everything was kosher.” This article appeared in the August 23, 1999 issue of the Hatchet.

Tom Penders selected to National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame Class of 2021

KANSAS CITY — Former University of Texas Men’s Basketball head coach Tom Penders has been selected to the National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame Class of 2021. Penders will be enshrined this weekend in Kansas City at the 2021 National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame Induction Celebration presented by Nike.

Penders, who was selected to the next class of the Texas Athletics Hall of Honor in August, served as Men’s Basketball head coach at UT for 10 seasons (1988-98). He restored a lost luster to Texas Basketball when he brought his “Runnin’ ‘Horns” style to Austin for the 1988-89 season. Following three losing seasons in the previous six years at Texas, Penders’ up-tempo style not only won games, it captured the excitement of the UT fan base.

In his 10 seasons, the Longhorns won 208 games, made eight NCAA tournament appearances, advanced to the Elite Eight in 1990, and claimed three Southwest Conference regular-season titles and two SWC tourney crownsThe success was immediate as in his first season, the Longhorns went 25-9 and Erwin Center crowds swelled to over 12,000 per game. That team averaged a SWC single-season record 94.3 points per game, eclipsing a mark set by Houston in 1977.

His early postseason success earned him the nickname of “Mr. March.” His first team shocked Georgia Tech in the Round of 64 in the NCAA Tournament. The 1990 squad, led by the “Texas BMW” guard trio of Travis Mays, Lance Blanks and Joey Wright, finished 24-9 and advanced all the way to the Elite Eight before losing by a basket in a game that would have earned UT an appearance in the Final Four for the first time in over 40 years.

Over the next eight seasons, Texas captured three SWC regular-season championships, a pair of SWC Tournament titles and advanced to the NCAA tournament six times. His 1996 team narrowly missed advancing to the Sweet Sixteen, falling 65-62 to Tim Duncan and Wake Forest. The 1997 team made it to the Sweet Sixteen before losing to No. 25 Louisville. 

Penders’ teams scored at least 100 points in 60 games during his 10 years in Austin, and seven of his players went on to the NBA. He left Texas following the 1998 season with a mark of 208-110, good for a winning percentage of .654, which at the time was the most victories and the second-best winning percentage (minimum five seasons) in UT basketball history.

Success followed Penders throughout his four decades of coaching. He won 649 career games as the head coach at seven programs, ranking him in the top 40 of the NCAA record book. Penders took four different schools – Rhode Island, Texas, George Washington and Houston – to the NCAA Tournament and won three regular-season conference titles and four league tournament crowns. He was named the 1987 Atlantic 10 Coach of the Year after leading Rhode Island to 20 wins in his first season at the school.

The National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame is located inside The College Basketball Experience (CBE), a world-class experiential entertainment facility adjacent to Kansas City’s T-Mobile Center. The Class of 2021 will be the 16th induction class in the Hall of Fame’s history.
