Hang tough ROFL BOX ! Thoughts and Prayers ! Can't lose another after YGIFS. Know him just from posts, but similar situation as YGIFS. Family really depends on him, especially his Mother.

Kinne's contract is similar to the contract UTSA gave Traylor in '21. Would think the buyout is similar.

4:30 on Quinn's performance, 7:56 vertical game. I'm sure different words in locker room and practice. Note he wears wedding ring. Good for him and Loreal.

https://www.ncaa.com/news/soccer-women/article/2024-11-04/2024-ncaa-di-womens-soccer-championship-selection-show-info-bracket-and-dates My search indicates the selection show will only be broadcast on NCAA.com ?

https://texaslonghorns.com/sports/baseball/roster No facial hair on team photos, but that was early. Michael Cantu has been added as a Student Assistant. Perhaps he can help the catchers. @BillyGoatHill Know there are alot of rotations, but could you tell anything about 1st and 3B ?

Thursday press conference. Slow starts addressed at 4:07, Quinn at 11:39. (can't get the LHN vid to embed) https://watch.longhornnetwork.com/video/708606

Reports state Quinn not made available to the media today. Read into that what you will.

Per SECN+ schedule, they will broadcast the OU softball intrasquad game at 6:30PM, Wed. Early look at their new catchers and pitchers. Would be nice if SECN+ would broadcast our Fall game with aggy on 18 Oct. https://www.espn.com/watch/collections/448368b8-411a-11ee-9ec0-02571ed8de13/secn+-live-upcoming

Moody Center AUSTIN (KXAN) — College volleyball has exploded in popularity over the past few years. Nebraska held a match in its football stadium in 2023, drawing a world-record crowd of 92,003 to help catapult the sport into the national spotlight. Surely, the back-to-back national champion Texas Longhorns could max out Moody Center for a match, right? Head coach Jerritt Elliott thinks so. During a news conference Monday, Elliott was asked if there were any plans to play some matches in Moody, which can be configured to seat almost 16,000 people if the upper level is opened like it is for concerts. For UT men’s and women’s basketball, the capacity is around 10,000, but Elliott thinks there’s enough demand to go all the way. “We’re looking to play there next year,” he said. “We have the following now. Basically, every one of our games is sold out, and now there’s a supply and demand issue. My phone is blowing up a lot more now for people trying to find tickets and wanting to be part of the game.” PREVIOUS MATCH: No. 8 Texas tops LSU to start SEC schedule 2-0 Elliott mentioned three potential opponents for Moody matches — perennial powers Stanford and Wisconsin along with Lone Star Showdown rival Texas A&M. He hasn’t nailed down any dates or many details yet, but he’d love to get a nonconference match with either the Cardinal or Badgers and a conference match with the Aggies. What makes Gregory Gym, the current home for Longhorn volleyball, such a great place to watch a match is its intimacy. With a listed capacity of around 4,000, it gets loud and rowdy and fans are almost on top of the action. Originally built in 1930, the venue underwent renovations in 1997 to modernize it and more than 5,000 fans crammed in for a 2022 NCAA regional final match against Ohio State to set an attendance record. In its first two SEC matches, Texas helped draw record crowds. The Aggies and Longhorns faced off to open the SEC slate Sept. 27 at Reed Arena in College Station, and a crowd of 9,236 saw Texas take a 3-1 win. It’s currently the highest-attended NCAA volleyball match in the state of Texas, but Elliott wants the record to live in Austin. “If (Texas athletic director Chris Del Conte) opens it all up, I think we can get 16,000 in Moody,” Elliott said, “but if not, we could go 10,000.” Texas moved to 2-0 in conference play Sept. 29 with a 3-0 win over Louisiana State in Baton Rouge, and that match also set an attendance record. Almost 4,000 fans, 3,885 to be exact, watched the Tigers and Longhorns inside the Maravich Center to set the venue’s mark for a volleyball match. The No. 7 Longhorns (7-3, 2-0 SEC) have won four consecutive matches and host South Carolina (9-3, 0-1) in the first-ever SEC volleyball match at Gregory Gym. The match is set to start at 6:30 p.m. https://www.kxan.com/sports/longhorns-volleyball-at-moody-center-its-in-the-works-coach-said/

Just a reminder that Sark's postgame press conference will be live on the LHN App.

Nice story on Omar who was inducted into the Texas Hall of Honor tonight. (excerpts) What are your memories of that 2002 title team? All those memories will last forever. It was truly a special year of great teammates, my brothers; it was my family away from home. That run that we had, just coming together like a family, and of course being led by the coaches that we had — Tommy Harmon, Frank Anderson and the late Augie Garrido — that was something special that I'll never forget. What was your relationship with Ivan Melendez? It was truly special. I started working with Ivan right after high school, and he put up some really good numbers in junior college. Such a great kid. I wanted him to go somewhere special where he could do something special for the university, and what better than the University of Texas? So I wanted him to come here. Knowing that (Troy Tulowitzki) was here, I was hoping that I could pull some strings and help him get here because I knew he could do something special for the university, and at the same time, the university could do something special for him in setting up his future.

A month or so ago Schloss stated Fall Ball will start o/a 17 Sep. That was the plan at that time. https://informedathlete.com/ncaa-di-baseball-roster-scholarship-limits-for-2025-school-year/

Oops ! Mistakenly looked at '23 schedule.

Poor planning by SEC. No aggy and we also played @OU last year. Enormous home field advantage. Suppose former B12 schedule was not a consideration.

Texas vs Rice games were epic during his tenure. RIP Coach. Rice manager Wayne Graham stands in the dugout before his team faces off against the University of Texas during the Houston College Classic at Minute Maid Park on Friday March 2, 2012 in Houston, TX

UM Coach Sherrone Moore's press conf. Did not know he played for OU 2:27 (OG, '06-'07 per wiki). Juco transfer from Butler CC. We split those games.

A grand lady indeed. RIP, Edith. Nice photo and story from the Statesman. https://www.statesman.com/story/sports/college/longhorns/football/2024/08/26/edith-royal-texas-longhorns-coach-darrell-royal-dies/74950000007/
