  1. Hold up, Sydney actually played baseball at Baylor?
  2. I don't agree with this. Texas did not recruit Tinney over Galvan. They went and got Tinney because they needed a guy to replace a departing Galvan. They were two of three finalists for the Buster Posey Award, which Bodine (CCU) won. There was no "recruiting over." @Js1, @Hookem2147, and myself are well aware of the state of Texas' current roster. We're merely speculating if this unexpected uncertainty potentially allows for the unforeseen circumstance of Galvan returning to Texas to occur. Nevertheless, I'd imagine we're all on the same page as you that it is unlikely, for a number of reasons. However, Texas doesn't have a qualified backup catcher on the roster after Tinney, which makes a conversation about platooning C/DH for the two more likely given Galvan's fall in the draft.
  3. Yeah, I was referring to the top end of the class that remains after Fien and Cunningham.
  4. I guess there is precedent from football that he could just unenroll and reenroll at a different school. However, I agree that it is most likely that Flores and Galvan just move on.
  5. We are now through the first ten rounds. Spencer, Galvan, and Flores have not been drafted. Of the three, only Spencer is out of eligibility. Flores is not likely back. As said above, maybe Galvan returns? Either way, Texas should be safe as it pertains to their high school class and transfer portal class making it to campus at this point. Can't imagine anyone signs for 150k, or that a team throws huge money from the bonus pole to entice one of the top remaining guys, at this point. Who knows though.
  6. Has not been picked in this draft. Texas is absolutely stacking talent.
  7. Fiery competitor and a great defensive catcher. If he and Tinney could split DH and C, that sure would limit Galvan's injury concerns, too. If Galvan reaches round 11, I'll start considering it a possibility.
  8. Agreed. Regardless, it appears this team is going to be loaded.
  9. Now through six rounds and 195 picks. No further damage. Slot value now $314.5k Of note, Spencer (ranked 113th prospect) and Galvan (176), have not been selected. Flores is listed at 235.
  10. Oh, shit. I totally bungled that haha. My bad.
  11. My bad. I thought y'all were gouda brie grateful.
  12. Gerry: Recruiting: The latest (Monday 7am CST) Then, Gerry in the comments:
  13. Gavin Fien: round 1, pick 12 (Rangers), pick value $5.75M Kayson Cunningham: round 1, pick 18 (Diamondbacks), pick value $4.58M Texas made it through the first three rounds without any surprises or additional damage. Pick (4th round - 106) value is now somewhere around $721,000. Only other Texas player/commit drafted thus far was Max Belyeu at 74 in the Competitive Balance Round B (CB-B, between the second and third rounds) and will reunite with Jared Thomas in the Rockies' org. Pick value was $1.11M. Too bad he was injured this season or he would have gone higher.
  14. 100%. They’re absolutely terrible.
  15. Yep, that's about right. We've expected little-to-no chance they make it to campus for a while. Otherwise, Cozart has had an amazing summer, though it seems like he's destined for campus. However, I wouldn't be shocked if he ended up being drafted and went. There hasn't been much talk of that, so maybe he wants too big of a signing bonus for teams to really consider him. If this were 10 years ago, no chance he ends up in Austin. But, times sure have changed in regards to HS pitching prospects and the draft.
  16. Hey, those are Mack’s specialty! Also appears to be a good kid from a good family…
  17. Looks like Calicut might be "staying home," after all. Albeit, through a different type of commitment. Also, looks like Texas dodged a bullet here...
  18. FCB with a picture of Ethan Walker in that article. Dumbass.
  19. Well then, I have excellent news for you. We have two (Duru and Traore) on this roster. 100%. This is a great pick up. Who knows what he'll contribute, but he'll be much farther along in terms of development and poise than most true freshmen. Pope, Mark, and Wilcher all have good experience playing the point. Otherwise, half the roster is looking like they'll play 1-3. Pending injuries, there should be more than enough depth at all positions.
  20. Well, one thing this team won't be is short.
