  1. I hear Karen Key Largo knows some nice friendly Asians that do all of her computer- stuff that she can recommend
  2. I think it's pretty obvious that we're just waiting for the end of the MLS season so that we can hire the guy who coached the team that finishes 10th (or maybe we'll shoot for the stars and go for the guy that finishes 9th!)
  3. This sounds awesome. Count me in! I haven't played any football games in the past several years, so I'll need some practice, but I'm in.
  4. Not sure if you made that up off the top of your head, but that exact guy actually does exist. https://www.bundesliga.com/en/bundesliga/news/fabian-hurzeler-who-is-st-pauli-s-us-born-coach-former-bayern-munich-youth-player-22956 Houston born Fabian Hurzeler just took St Pauli back up to the Bundesliga and was just hired by Brighton, becoming the youngest premier league manager ever at the ripe age of 31.
  5. Hey guys, does anyone know if Bevo was at the introduction? I'm really interested to see if Bevo and Schloss have a natural bond and if Schloss willingly reaches out. Bevo is a huge part of our university and our athletics programs so if he has an instant affinity for Coach Schloss, I think that will speak volumes to our recruits. If anyone could, please take and post video of their initial encounter. Any still shots of Coach Schloss petting Bevo would also be appreciated - would prefer if taken from side so I can see as much as possible of both their faces. Edit: damn it, that's what I get for not reading the entire thread. Da Fino beat me to it literally by several days. That's what I get for thinking I'm funny lol
  6. I think, in her head, what she was looking for was something more like Florida-FSU. Or maybe UNC-Duke. But then she unknowingly stumbled onto a perfect comparison
  7. Anytime! Hope you have a great trip. It was around 100 yen per dollar when I was there. Made the conversion in my head easy when I was trying to figure out how much I was spending. If you need cheap and easy souvenirs, hit up a Daiso; it's basically a Japanese Dollar Store. If no price on it, then it's 100 yen, some things will be 200 or 300 yen. We bought Japanese fans, chopsticks, coloring/sticker books, all sorts of stuff. Now everything will be cheaper than a dollar given the conversion rate. Also, don't convert money at the airport. They will not give you the best conversation rate. If you want the cheapest rate, take American cash and use the exchange machines at 7 eleven/Lawson's/Family Mart.
  8. Gosh this makes me miss Japan. For dinner, Hiroshima style Okonomiyaki is my favorite food of all time. If it's baseball season, definitely catch a Carps game. The energy around Japanese baseball is DIFFERENT. Tickets can be hard to find, but if you plan far enough in advance, can maybe buy some online. This might be tough because when I did this, they mailed the tickets, so might need a Japanese address to mail these to. The baseball stadium is walkable from Hiroshima station. If you want the history, Hiroshima peace memorial Park, the atomic bomb dome, and the museum. Very well done and somber museum about the atomic bomb from the Japanese point of view. Think Holocaust museum. Can easily take up a full morning or afternoon. When I took my wife to Hiroshima for the first time, this was a must. One stop down from Hiroshima station, but maybe a 30-45 minute walk instead if it's a nice day For shopping/souvenirs, Hondori area is a must. Massive shopping area with multiple malls and souvenir shops. The PARCO mall there has a Shonen Jump Store and a Pokemon store for the kids or anime nerds in your life. This area is right next to the Peace Memorial Park and Hiroshima Castle. Took my wife shopping here after the museum. Mazda museum is in Hiroshima as well. Never had a chance to go, but I've heard really great things. Definitely had my fair number of days going to the castle/memorial Park, followed by Hondori, then night baseball game, just in time to catch the train back to Iwakuni. Spoilered for length, but here's a list of restaurants in the area a friend and I put together (includes Sake breweries in Saijo and things to do on Miyajima Island)
  9. Agreed, I think having all of the rankings would clutter up what you're trying to do. But I agree with @BornOrange, I like having a national player rank and a position rank, maybe under "Status: Committed"?
  10. I think this would be a cool thing to use in commit threads. Adding the Twitter/Instagram is a nice touch so that people can go follow if they want to. Maybe just needs to add the player's recruit grade/position rank? I like the way 247 has that in theirs.
  11. Harris did indeed commit I can't find the other post, but saw something about her being the #1 setter recruit. Haven't seen anything from Anderson yet.
  12. Looch wants two things: to keep his subscribers high on hope, and to be respected by/friends with famous people and national reporters. He knows whatever he writes can be on MBG or Pawl or Pate or whatever, so every now and then, he presents a very normal opinion. In this case, he straight up said that Quinn has been better than Klubnik and Weigman (no shit, even though no 98% aggy would ever say that out loud). That's the "normal" opinion, but because he's aggy, he needs to hide that behind all of the other ridiculous shit he vomited into that post.
  13. Certainly doesn't look like she's planning to transfer anytime soon
  14. If Port Arthur is Houston area then shouldn't Brenham be in the Austin area?
  15. Tex is just fucking with you guys at this point 😂
  16. We've been talking about it in the softball thread too. It was 7-3 entering the 7th. Waco Midway hit 2 HRs in the top half to make it 9-3. Then the comeback. So proud of these girls. I went to high school with many of their parents, including the grand slam hitter Andrea Ortiz, and my dad is still on the school board in Weslaco. First girls team in RGV history and first team in school history to win state. And I'm pretty sure we don't even have any D1 recruits on the team. Every Valley athlete has heard how we're not good enough or big/fast/strong enough to hang with the "real" athletes up north... These girls just proved to everyone in the valley that yeah, we can hang. They are already RGV legends and I'm willing to bet that the entire team will be inducted into the RGV Sports Hall of Fame in the next few years. It might be the crowning accomplishment in modern RGV sports history. They fought hard and I certainly thought the game was over. It's heartbreaking to lose in that fashion, but they definitely don't have anything to be ashamed of.
  17. This is idiotic. This team wins a title, maybe 2 with Canady pitching for the number 1 offensive team in the country. Let her stomp around wearing burnt orange. Or sure, boo hoo I don't want her on my team because she celebrates too hard, so she can go to OU or OSU or somewhere else and be in our way again. Miranda Elish used to do that all the time wearing burnt orange and I'm pretty sure no one on this board complained.
  18. For you scholarship counters Bert Auburn on scholarship
  19. When has that ever stopped them from doing something?
  20. Forgot that Trey Faltine's mom is from Weslaco. She caught this on this morning's sportscenter!
  21. Forgot that Trey Faltine's mom is from Weslaco. She caught this clip from this morning's sportscenter!
  22. There are different POY awards. Canady won one that doesn't separate pitchers from hitters. Atwood won 2 other national POY awards
  23. Was waiting until after the game to post this; my Weslaco Panthers are bringing home a state championship to the RGV! After playing 13 innings last night and beating #1 Denton Guyer, they come back in the bottom of the 7th and win it with a grand slam (at McCombs Field!)! I believe it's the first ever Girls team sport State championship for the RGV and I'm pretty sure first ever state championship for Weslaco High. Weslaco was down 7-3, gave up two HR in the top 7th to go down 9-3, then came all the way back. I'm pretty sure we don't have any D-1 recruits, Waco has a Texas A&M signee (#13 ranked player in the country) and a Baylor signee. Way to go Weslaco!! #Puropinche956!
  24. I posted a little about the semi final game over on the softball board. 5-3 in 13 innings last night over #1 Denton Guyer! Down 7-3...Waco hits two home runs in top 7 to go up 9-3. Weslaco rallies for 8 runs and a walk off grand slam to win the state championship. What a game. Weslaco doesn't have any D-1 recruits that I know of, Waco has an A&M signee (ranked #13 player in the country) and a Baylor signee. But Weslaco is bringing it home to the RGV! #PuroPinche956!
