Shah Nah Nah Nah, Shah Nah Nah Nah...

Hey, hey, goodbye, P.J. Tucker.

You will be missed.

Yet another of the starting five from the Longhorns basketball team is officially headed to the pros. It should not come as too much of a surprise that Baby Barkley (as we call him) has decided to forego his final year of eligibility and go make some cash. The AP named Tucker to its second-team All-America after he averaged 16 points and 9.5 rebounds last year. After his best season as Texas, Tucker's stock reached its ceiling, most likely, so now seems to be the right time for him to take the next step.

The Longhorns, who have already lost LaMarcus Aldridge to the NBA and Brad Buckman and Kenton Paulino to graduation, are now left with only one retiring starter. And rumor has it sophomore guard Daniel Gibson may go pro, as well, leaving UT with a brand new set of starters for next year. Yikes!
