  1. Definitely. A love child of the two between the facial features, expression, and long hair.
  2. Shit. Thought that was gone at first.
  3. Pitcher kinda looks like McConaughey
  4. Need a double play badly here.
  5. Who the fuck cares. We absolutely should never want to see aggy win a title in anything.
  6. Yep, it’s all true. They’re fucking wackos with major delusions of grandeur.
  7. Ironically, this is the type of switch-man defense roster makeup that Beard looked to construct. Texas will have that option, especially when Pope isn’t on the floor/when they don’t play a team with a legit 7-footer
  8. Yeah, it definitely is if we’re considering playing small much of the time. It’s certainly talented. Just need to stay healthy. That being said, this is a lower ceiling type of team (most likely). However, maybe they’ll surprise. There are a lot of good pieces. Texas will have more scoring options than the past couple of years.
  9. Not sure about that. Unless something implodes in the locker room, this team has a talented core, despite massive depth concerns in the front court.
  10. As much as I would like to agree with you, based on what I have seen, I trust A&M's pitching depth and coaching much more than I do Texas'.
  11. Yeah, I don’t think Texas necessarily gets out of that regional, even with a 2-0 start.
  12. @troph and @Nicole44 would make one hell of a dangerous combo out on the town.
  13. Yep, it's looking like it's going to have to be Tennessee to beat them. Which, if aggy can best the Vols without two of their best three position players, they certainly deserve the title.
  14. Max Weiner is quite the parental name choice. Dude is an absolute prodigy though. Quite the background for a young guy.
  15. Fuck, seeing that graphic re: the five #1 overall seeds starting 2-0 in the CWS with 2004 and 2009 Texas both finishing runner-up. Those two seasons will never not make me depressed. The what-ifs in both years...
  16. Fuck the Yankees! What a fun game to win the series.
  17. What happened to force that?
  18. Haha, I'd change my tune on Vitello and Schloss if either were hired. Both would be upgrades, for sure. Regardless, I trust CDC to improve the head coaching spot when he makes a change. It's just his modus operandi.
  19. If CDC pulls any of the coaches in the CWS (although, really there are two names circulating as rumors from that pool of eight), it's an improvement. I can also make a strong argument for Bakich > Pierce in terms of future dividends. If I'm betting, it's likely Bakich, with Vitello as an outside shot.
  20. Exactly. It won't be possible to win the conference championship at a 50% clip in the SEC - not even close. It doesn't even matter. There are four SEC teams in the CWS, and five played in Super Regionals. The program should always be in a healthy enough state to make the postseason and compete for a trip to Omaha. Texas should never have glaring roster deficiencies like it does right now. The organic recruiting and development pitching trajectory on this roster over the past couple of years (and leading into next) has been atrocious compared to historical standards. Additionally, the head coach at Texas should not have questions surrounding the year-over-year health of his program in year 8. Again, Pierce is not a bad coach. However, those stanning for him and acting like he's being unfairly thrown under the bus are deluding themselves. If Texas is okay being a top-10% program, keep him. If not, a change is necessary. He's shown more than enough at this point to justify being shown the door; let alone all of the other off-the-field shit he hasn't been adept at.
