  1. Looking at just “wins” in college baseball is a very misleading metric. Texas, like many programs, pad their out of conference schedule with lower quality teams. And the SEC was a higher quality conference in which he didn’t have to compete. Also, as a top baseball program on the country Texas should always be in top 5 in wins. Finally, who gives a fuck. He’s gone.
  2. I’m very surprised Alabama seems to be still recruiting at a very high level. I would have thought we’d see a drop off.
  3. His press conference after the Florida game really made me think he was gone. He was disgusted by those fans.
  4. I like the attitudes of Pearland kids.
  5. Having peyton’s billion focused on Tennessee nil is a bit concerning.
  6. I don’t understand the Schloss response. At all.
  7. The old me right now would be bursting with joy at the thought of @balcones hearing the news of Pierce’s firing. The new me also feels this way.
  8. DT is now officially effing with our plans to be a perennial top 5 program. They need to figure this shit out.
  9. It’s also hilarious that, while it would be highly unusual for it to happen, there are posters making definitive statements that it won’t happen and admonishing others over it. Hilariousssss
  10. Like any coaching search, there is a sequence of events that must happen. First the existing coach has to get relieved. Then the coach being hired needs to agree to terms. If that doesn’t happen, then choice number two is up. There are a lot of new posters in this thread arguing over formalities that are realities.
  11. FWIW, I focused heavily on glycemic index for a few years but found thru measurements that blood sugars did not fully align with the glycemic index. Some low GI foods would produce high sugars and vice versa. Over time I just figured out which foods produced the worst results and tried to moderate those.
  12. Not that I disagree with you, but it would be interesting to see the math on that.
  13. Stating the obvious. QB projection is always difficult for the average fan because the most important characteristic of a QB is performance under pressure. There are countless QB’s in history who threw a great football but when faced with 300 lb linemen in their faces, they made terrible decisions. That’s why guys like Colt McCoy ended up being far more productive QB’s than guys with better arms. Performance under pressure is everything. Dallas Cowboy fans know this all too well. Hi Dak.
  14. I want to thank all of you tax payers for paying for my wedding. I got married in Bergstrom AFB in the church, and had the rehearsal dinner and reception in the officers club. Total rental cost to me? $0. Total wedding cost? $2,400 including dress, and we pocketed $600 from the inlaws because we stayed under $3,000. Best deal I’ve ever done.
  15. This Surly account has to be a bit. What bit? The guy who's wrong 100% of the time, like clockwork.
  16. Saw a clip from the Klatt interview discussing working for Saban and Carroll. I really like how he’s learning. I’ve always felt that the best person to hire is the one who is always learning and adjusting. I think Texas has that with this guy. Im very gruntled.
  17. Where would we be if Oliver Lock would have been hired instead of Patterson. No Strong. No Shaka. No Pierce. Ugh.
