In his 14th year as the Longhorns' head coach, Rick Barnes hopes to lead his team to its 14th consecutive NCAA Tournament appearance with on-the-court prowess, which was further honed during a rigorous series of off-season workouts. Junior guard J'Covan Brown leads the team in scoring, starting the season with an average of 29.3 points per game, a 50.9% field-goal percentage, and the envious respect of opposing teams' fathers. Freshman forward Jonathan Holmes has punished fouls in fine fashion with a 13–14 free-throw record, and first-year guard Julien Lewis has started his Longhorns tenure in long-range style with a 47% three-point percentage. The Frank Erwin Center hosts basket-sinking contests in a capacious interior, with video boards blasting crowd-riling replays and delectable concessions replacing any calories lost while attempting behind-the-back free throws.

Groupon Says
The Groupon Guide to: Siblings
Because it's not polite to tell a child their age, many people don't know whether they are the eldest, middle, or youngest sibling in the family. Take this quiz to find out which one you might be:
Your favorite way to influence the future is by:
a. Organizing your son's social studies binder
b. Deconstructing Lego cities built by children to teach them to doubt the establishment
c. Chewing!
Your workout routine involves:
a. Bench-pressing smaller humans
b. Contemplating
c. Running on a metal wheel!
It's dinnertime. You take your place:
a. At the head of the table. Everyone in the family will be excited to hear you regale them with the story of how you won today.
b. In your bedroom. Watching your family members chew makes you sick.
c. In the food bowl! Hopefully you'll be able to pick out some of those delicious sunflower seeds!
If you could redecorate your home you would:
a. Expand. You need a home for all your cars and a garage for all your children. Oops! Other way around.
b. Burn the thing down
c. Add more tubes!
Answer key: If you picked mostly As: You're the eldest sibling, congratulations! Your assertive type A personality makes you a leader in the family and a difficult person to watch television with.
If you picked mostly Bs: You're the middle sibling. You're artistic, emotional, and immune to romantic comedy.
If you picked mostly Cs: Your name is Oreo, you're the fifth child in a litter of 14, and everyone here just wants you to come home.
