  1. If it is Vitello, CDC truly is a wizard. I’d have to imagine the hire would come with significant commitments to baseball resources overall.
  2. Fuck, this romance is turning into the baseball version of Derka and Motownhorn.
  3. New to gardening. Have a community plot for my young kids to learn to enjoy the work and the excitement of growth/the harvest like I did when I was young. The plot is year-round. I know we’re basically too late for summer, but what resources do y’all have for newbies in Central Texas? I’d love to do some late Summer/Fall planting. Otherwise, thank you for the existence of this thread!
  4. I don’t give a shit if we get Charlie Chaplin’s toothbrush style, as long as we win.
  5. Not at all. They’ve shot up the rankings in a myriad of undergraduate and graduate programs, let alone their overall undergraduate ranking.
  6. BYU is probably the best academic institution in the Big 12 now.
  7. Yeah, I meant what was announced by the university as a straight-up firing. That’s why I put the Augie caveat. He is the last, as of now. Both he and Gus were fired in reality, but technically weren’t announced as such.
  8. Depending on who you ask about the situation, Augie. In terms of a straight up firing, probably the first decade of the 1900s…
  9. Don’t worry, I’m told Pierce is an excellent coach and we should put all of our faith in his ability to restore Texas to its rightful glory days.
  10. That was horribly written, but I certainly appreciate the information. I’d love BOC in Austin. Yeah, FiveTool.
  11. Based on how Bobby handled that, he obviously knows something.
  12. Texas has almost no quality pitching right now. So, yeah, color me fucking skeptical. The pitching landscape is on track to be even worse than this past season. Of course, that could change; but with Pierce's job in flux (right now and next season), I'm highly doubtful he's going to be able to pull what this team needs out of the portal. It's not being a pussy - it's the writing on the wall. We'll see.
  13. What other programs are probably looking for new coaches that would be considered big enough for Kendall to hint at?
  14. No fucking way with Pierce’s roster construction . He has gaping holes every year. Florida is one of the most talented teams in the nation. Texas, is not.
  15. As of right now, it damn sure will be.
  16. Nickel, apparently. But I bet he ends up at TE. Jackson will end up at SDE.
  17. Lmao. Again.
  18. Thats not how it works. Every school only gets points from the same number of sports (a max of 19). However, the more sports a school sponsors, the higher probability that total will be comprised of a greater number of better finishes. That’s why Stanford has had such an advantage. They don’t get to count every sport - rather, they do really well in a ton of niche sports, which bolsters the latter half of their points list. Edit: I see that was covered. Should have read the thread before commenting.
  19. If Texas makes a change, whoever they hire will be one of the highest paid coaches, if not the top. Just what the market will command for any coach worth a damn.
  20. Which is wild, because Ace was the best starter on this staff for a large portion of the season. "Best" is relative, obviously.
  21. Yeah, I can agree on all of that. There's probably a scenario where Pierce sets up a system to allow Williams to do what he does best (coach pitching) and mitigates his poor recruiting ability (inability to even do it?). However, it's Pierce's way or the highway, and I don't think he's even aware enough to pick up on the fact that he probably needed to establish something like that in the first place.
  22. It's a pipe dream, but a dream nonetheless. He has a legit chance to win it all this year. Even if he doesn't, no chance aggy lets him leave without throwing every asset in the AD at him.
  23. But... hopefully without that last part.
