  1. I think it depends on their age or birthday….something like that
  2. Blake Alright yall, first lets get these out of the way before moving onto who I'd take and why. I asked numerous people about the names you've seen a million fans say on message boards and social media. 1. Tulo (Director of Player Development / Texas) - Not happening. Not because they don't like him or because he doesn't know his stuff. It's just that he doesn't have experience. More on that later. 2. Jay Johnson (LSU) - You can't money whip him. He has it made at LSU. No. 1 NIL program in the nation that rivals some schools football programs. He ain't leaving. 3. Tim Corbin (Vanderbilt) - Very comfortable at Vandy and he loves it there. He's the man there. He ain't leaving. 4. Brian O'Connor (Virginia) - No, not Paul Walker's (RIP) character from Fast and Furious. The Virginia coach. I've seen so many people name O'Connor as a replacement. While he didn't graduate a Cav, O'Connor has been there since 2004. That's longer than a handful of people on this board have been alive. He is VERY settled in there, as anyone would be who's been in the same place for 20 years. He will retire from there. 5. Dan Heefner (Dallas Baptist) - Not a fit at Texas, mainly for (his own) personal reasons. His coaching style (players in bed by 9 PM, can't leave dorm) doesn't connect with a lot of recruits. I know of one recruit recently offered there and he personally told me that "their rules are stricter than anywhere else I've ever been in my life. No thanks. Not even visiting because of that." He's a phenomenal coach, but it's just not the right one for the Longhorns. 6. Random JUCO/D3/D2 guy who has a phenomenal record and wins - Not happening. Coaching JUCO ball is so different than major D1 baseball. Deer in the headlights type reactions would be expected. Texas wants a few things with this hire from what I'm told. 1. A proven winner. 2. A proven developer. 3. A fiery guy who connects with the players, recruits and the fans. 4. A guy with experience coaching high D1 level baseball who can navigate those waters and navigate them well. im no expert but that 4 line item description of wants sounds an awful lot like Vitello
  3. That graphic with the inside the park tracking is hilarious
  4. Van Horn is perpetual disappointment and would be like basically hiring another Pierce.
  5. I really dislike how OU players act after just a simple walk
  6. Because he and his friends couldn’t kept their yapper shut on candidates
  7. We beat out basketball powerhouses South Carolina(not the womens) and Rutgers, according to Gerry.
  8. Probably because of how she acts on and off the court? On top of trying to play victim when things don't go her way? Where as CC generally leave it between the lines on the court and doesn't carry it over into the media and tends to take the high road when it comes to press conferences and never cries "poor me"
  9. So are we regular start time for our game?
  10. There getting some good hits on this OU pitcher.
  11. Update from Gerry just now: Brandon Brown Update OnTexasFootball spoke with a person close to the recruitment of 4-star Texas commitment Brandon Brown (Melbourne, Fla./Eau Gallie) within the last hour. Here is the latest: 1. Brown is not de-committing from Texas today or tomorrow barring a major change, flipping to LSU and ending his recruiting process. Just answering some questions being asked. 2. Brown intends to make the official visits scheduled. Tennessee June 7-9, Texas June 14-16 and likely Miami June 21-23. 3. Brown has been on the phone with defensive line coach Kenny Baker since the LSU visit concluded. 4. Brown is scheduled to speak with Steve Sarkisian tonight around 6 p.m. central.
  12. I have eliminated Godwin from my list as he just lost to 4 seed Evansville.
  13. Man, I think if Rori stays healthy next year with Madison we could win it all.
  14. Would you like it if people told Reese to shut up and dribble?
  15. Followed by Miami.....tells you what's needed in this recruitment IMO.
  16. Because Angel Reese has painted herself into the unlikeable cunt bitch category.
