  1. They brag about a lot of things. Like beating bama once. Or winning world war 2. Or how they’ve owned the sec. or how jimbo is a combo of Bear, DKR, Urban and Saban while every top recruit they’ve gotten just loves gorgeous college station and the rich tradition of aggy. I mean, who wouldn’t want to play high level football at a school located in a flat wasteland where a fried chicken joint is the best restaurant in town?
  2. They should trade Gallo for a defensive beast in the outfield. Also, really wish Kody was a Yankee. He’d kill it with that porch. The Yankees would be wise to pick Ivan in the 2nd or 3rd. He’d kill it in that little league park
  3. Yes. As usual, Pierce had us playin our best ball come May and June. Cooper, Kingham, Johnston, Kennedy, shugart and ridgeway was a damn salty staff. Kacy, Boswell, Jones, Hamilton, Todd, Kody, Mathis, Gurwitz, Reynolds and even Cantu and McCann were a bitch of a lineup. Yeah Cantu and McCann weren’t our standard, but McCann was average enough defensively and a solid contact hitter. Cantu could pound the ball every now and then. Our defense was really solid that year and Kacy, Boswell, Todd, Reynolds, Jones, Shaw; McCann and at times, Cantu killed it at the plate. We got fucked being sent out west. We should’ve been in Baton Rouge or Southern miss or Gainesville. Feel like we would’ve won any of those regionals easily. Shit we should’ve won the Long Beach regional and I think we matched up well with Fullerton. If we had say, Tres, DJ, Silas or even fucking Jacob felts at catcher, we would’ve gone to Omaha. Fuck it. Whatever. This is the best staff we’ve had since Augie, Harmon and skip. We’ve gone to Omaha 3 of the last 4 full years. We significantly upgraded our pitching coach and Rodriguez is a badass hire. And tulo is still gonna be around the program. Y’all ready for some 02-‘14 action? It’s coming. The program from Gus and his dudes to Huston and the Augie dudes all hanging around the program. The whole Texas baseball family is aligned. Y’all ready for some more Omaha trips and a few dog piles? The next 10 years are gonna be 2000-2014 all over again, but with a couple more dog piles thrown in. I’m beyond fucking ready
  4. I’ve had aggys text me after their “big” wins (bama, auburn, lsu). I totally understand. First thing I did when we beat ou in 2013 or 2015 or notre dame in 2016 or usc and ou and Georgia in 2018 was text my aggy friends to gloat. Oh wait no I didn’t cause I’m not a fucking psycho that lives to watch my rivals lose, and even when we win, still rub it in their face instead of celebrating with my fellow longhorn fans. I remember when Vince crossed the goal line on 4th and 5, I immediately picked up the phone and metaphorically rubbed shit all over my aggy friends face. Oh wait no I didn’t. I went down to the drag with my parents and dogs and celebrated the greatest win in program history as well as the greatest game in college football history. The way real fan bases go about celebrating…..
  5. Seriously. These dudes aren’t in elementary school. They’re treating it like the little league team party after the season. “Burgers and hot dogs for the kids, steaks for the adults!!!!” It’s one of the the many things that makes them…..them. Watching them implode the next few years is going to be beyond glorious. Especially after the mad shit they’ve talked since Johnny coke head. Hate that we’re playing them again but fuck it, let’s do it the way we always have. Beat them 80% of the time in everything
  6. That was a fun season and we got totally fucked. We should’ve been a 2 seed somewhere in the southeast but they shipped us off to Long Beach and we still almost won. Fucking Cantu. That’s a team I feel like would’ve done some damage in Omaha. Really good lineup with Cooper, Kennedy, Kingham, Shugart and Ridgeway. Fucking baseball being all annoying like that
  7. Man I wish the 2020 season happened. We were absolutely loaded that year. Oh well. The baseball gods owe us hard ever since that faithful day against tcu in 2010 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
  8. Skip used to give private lessons to Kershaw, Homer Bailey, Scott Kazmir and an ocean of other mlb dudes. And obviously the Knebal, workman, Jungmann, Milner, Curtiss and peters group. Good side gig for these dudes
  9. See Trojans, Texas kids would like to do this again
  10. Tried explaining that to that aggy dude. He couldn’t wrap his head around it. It makes perfect sense for dudes like Evan Stewart to play for jimbo and not sark in their minds. It’s insane
  11. Even Pierces dog hates him. Dude is just toxic. Good thing we made the CWS 3 of the last 4 years in spite of him. Phil Haig and Sean Allen were the true brains there
  12. Honestly I thought we were gonna go like 4-8 in 2013. Greg Robinson and our o line saved our ass that year. And of course we unnecessarily burned swoopes redshirt against like Kansas and when we were getting our asses kicked by Oregon. Sweet now I’m all pissed at Mack again
  13. Awesome. Basically an assistant without being on the payroll.
  14. His dad was one of my coaches. Wasn’t exactly the smartest dude. And he was my history teacher one year. He constantly dips. Shit he was dipping during a lecture once. Thought it was rude he didn’t offer me any
  15. Thanks. I wasn’t already feeling old or anything
  16. It’d be a great way to honor 9/11 if Baker tore up both his knees after throwing 3 pick sixes
  17. But Demas and Stewart are total class acts so this makes sense
  18. Fuck hey @Cajun, we need 150 pounds of meth this week instead of the usual 100. Think you can swing it?
  19. Sure, I’m just gonna go find a cash machine
  20. You live in Austin? Or the greater central Texas area?
  21. Same with Ohio State before our game in 05. I’m sure ou talked shit before our 05 game. Oh man remember Rudy Carpenter before the 07 holiday bowl talking mad shit. Well……
  22. That sounds about right. God I miss Augie. Has Harmon been hanging around the program at all? Been loving Gus and his players and the Augie studs coming back and hanging with the program. Would love to have Harmon around the disch with these guys
  23. I bet Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa and Maryland stepping up their game in baseball has gotten Ohio state to wake the fuck up there. Shit even northwestern and Purdue are slowly turning into salty little programs. The big 10 has hired some salty ass coaches the last few years
  24. Yep!!! That’s what I was talking about. My dad said it was the craziest shit he’s ever seen and he could never quite pick up on what he was doing. And my dad is like us, lives and breathes baseball. Our boy valmy covered it. Would be nice if Gus shared some of his secrets with Pierce. But yeah man, got a really good feeling about our trajectory. Hard to argue Pierces results so far. He’s learned a little something and tweaked a thing or 2 every season. I think he’s finally truly grown into the role and is ready to start kicking ass. This is the best staff we’ve had since Augie, Harmon and Skip 15 or whatever years ago. I’m expecting some 02-‘11 type results in the coming years
