  1. Hit .286 in Big 12 in 2023 and .282 this year. Strikeouts became a big problem for him this year too. He’s a good player, but the hype on him got out of control after he belted a bunch of homers against Texas southern and western Illinois last year.
  2. Yeah, but it’s tough to know the exact number til after the draft and I’m assuming a few may also be processed. Might end up being a signing class closer to 10-12 with 80% being pitchers.
  3. Numbers wise I got this: Coming back for sure (7): Gaspo, Belyeu, Whitehead, Grubbs, Galvan, Schuessler, Borba Portal adds (4): Trop, Moffett, Winfield, Burns On roster, not in portal yet (16): Sanders, Peterson, Service, Duplantier, Farmer, Cummings, Selvig, Tumis, Hamilton, Harrison, Zaharias, Santos, Bertsch, Howard, Shaw, O’Hara Draft?? (6): Boehm, LBJ, Witt, Thomas, Flores, Duplantier Medical redshirt??? (1): Mercer
  4. He was apparently at LSU this past weekend.
  5. LSU was tampering the shit out of Gasparino.
  6. This one was dicey for a little bit
  7. We were in it for Root and Arkansas came in and blew everyone else out of the water with a NIL offer.
  8. Bicep, which is a little concerning, but beggars can't be choosers. Talent is there.
  9. So, are these the appropriate vibes right now positionally? QB- Good RB- Good WR- Good even with 0 commits TE- Good if Townsend falls our way OL- Fairly good with Brooks and Fasusi in the balance Edge- Good DT- Not good. Need to hold on for dear life with Brown, get DJ Sanders and then pray for a couple of flips? LB- Avreage with Barnes and potentially Cunningham, but Pettijohn trending away is tough CB- Below average. Chester is solid, but no Brew or Anding means back to the drawing board S- Average with Phillips and Tilmon, need another good piece to bump it up.
  10. An edge class of Jackson and Orogbo certainly wouldn't suck
  11. Kennedy was committed to A&M as a sophomore in HS and was essentially let go when Schloss took over. So I don't think he was too interested in going through that again at Texas.
  12. If you think a “big domino” tweeted by a national writer is an off-field assistant following the head coach who hired him, I got some ocean front property to sell in Arizona. Texas is going to have to work hard to retain their good players. That is what happens when you make a coaching change. We aren’t immune to that.
  13. 1 for 1. And I like where we are with Patton. Unsure on Kilen right now
  14. Played for Texas, worked under Augie and lives, breathes and sleeps Texas baseball. He knows all the former players, HS kids, coaches and has connections out the ass. All due respect to Carli Todd who previously had that role, but to have a true baseball guy in the ops role is a big deal.
  15. Let’s see what the roster looks like August 1. This team as currently constructed with no Thomas or Flores is not close to hosting.
  16. We are going to get some good players via the portal and I expect us to be competitive next year but this thing is still somewhat of a rebuild considering the roster imbalance and lack of overall talent 1 through 40 on the roster as things currently stand. I think I’ve said that before so obviously not breaking any news It didn’t help that A&M played til literally the last possible day of the season and a lot of portal guys were off the board.
  17. Galvan is questionable to return as well, although I think he prefers being at Texas but was another Longley guy.
  18. The thing I can’t quite understand is where Belyeu would even slot in at A&M. Laviolette, Grahovac, Sorrell and Schott should all be back next year and play the OF.
  19. The domino Kendall is referencing is Max Belyeu. Him and Longley were close and he has family ties to A&M. Texas is trying to put out the fire.
  20. Pretty sure the P5 coach being hyped up as coming on as an assistant is Jason Kelly at Washington. Was the pitching coach at ASU with Earley and spent a year at LSU before getting the head gig at Washington.
  21. I'm not sure if he desires to be an on-field assistant and I'm also not sure if Schlossnagle would green light someone as an on-field assistant who has never recruited off campus.
