It looked awkward but not too bad when it happened, but the pregame injury Texas guard suffered Tuesday night turned out to be season ending.

We all feel for Varez. Everyone within our program understands how much time and hard work Varez has put in, and he has been the most improved player on our team from the end of last season. He means a lot to this program. There is one thing for certain, he will be back.
