Texas fans know it's an extreme long shot that freshman sensation Kevin Durant will be anywhere other than the NBA next season. But they'd do just about anything if it means Durant will return for his sophomore season.That's what Burnt Orange Nation found out when it asked its readers to finish this sentence: "If Kevin Durant returns to Texas for another year, I will ____"
The resulting comments were often hilarious and demonstrated just how much the football-mad school has fallen in love with its basketball superstar. Some of the best included:
I will attempt to convince my future wife that our first son's name should be Kevin Durant Collins rather than Vincent Young Collins. (NB: I have yet to convince her on the Vince Young idea.)...Read the whole thing. I don't think Durant will return, but I know if he does, he'll make some people very, very happy.
If Durant comes back, I will buy a dog, name him Kevin Durant, and force him to watch Air Bud repeatedly for three years. At that time, I will challenge the human Kevin Durant to a 1 on 1 basketball game with dog Kevin Durant. It will be the most epic 1 on 1 basketball match ever played. Win or lose, both Kevin Durants will go down as legendary players in a historic interspecies battle for hoops supremecy that will be remembered for ages....
I will shave KD in my chest hair.

Y'all must have lost your minds....Mr. Durant will be wearing Celtics green next year. I think he's going to be a longer term project than most of you homers think but he clearly has the potential to be a good one. If he is a fool he'll stay in Texas, they cannot win with him and remember he went there to gain exposure rather than play back east where the game is really played. hey who is in the Final Four G'Town, Ohio State, Florida and a western token,,,,LOL C'mon Kevin the Celts need a lot of help.

Pokey Chatman will coach at Tulane women's basketball program before Kevin Durant returns to Texas basketball. Longhorn fans just hope that the next Kevin Durant will be recruited from high school.
