Miami cruised out to a 7-0 lead on three straight layups, the third an and-1 finish by fifth-year senior guard Jordan Miller. And during those early moments, it seemed these Longhorns would indeed miss the defensive presence of the 6-9 Disu, their tallest player and best rim protector. Texas captured its first lead with a 9-0 run sparked by graduate super subs Brock Cunningham and Sir’Jabari Rice. The latter kicked it off with a 3, and Cunningham started causing his familiar brand of destruction on the offensive glass and defensive end. He even sprinkled in a layup, a sign of the seismic impact the longest-tenured Longhorn and his benchmates would have on this game.
