The 2016-17 Texas basketball season has been a struggle for the first few months. After starting the season at 3-0, the Longhorns have dropped seven of the last 10 to drop to 6-7. They most recently lost their Big 12 opener against Kansas State, 65-62, on December 30.
On Wednesday, Texas will have their first game of the season against Oklahoma State, which will be played at home. However, according to 247Sports.com (h/t Austin American-Statement), they will be without guard Kendal Yancy, who has been ruled out for this game. He suffered a left ankle injury during the Kansas State game.
