  1. We’ve lost 5 times tamucc. We’ve never lost to ACU. It’ll come though. It’s just a matter of when.
  2. Well, Bama has 4 dudes at the last two NFL combined that ran some S. The fastest was 4.55 and slowest was 4.60. Georgia had a S last year that ran 4.62. Now Georgia did have mid-4.4 guys this year. Demani Richardson was 4.6. And this year, the two fastest S were from the Big 12. Neither was Tyler Owens either. To answer your question, hell if I know. There aren’t a ton of 220 pounders running 4.4s however.
  3. Interesting that you call out a dude who is tied at 5th for career interceptions here at DBU. Only played 3 years.
  4. Where’d you get the 4.45? I was curious when the in-season discussion happened about how slow we were. Fans are morons when he comes to their perceptions of certain things. They can’t get over certain elements of some players including the walk-on status. But at least they double down and blame them for other players errors. Nevermind there are multiple former walk-ons running around the NFL.
  5. Powell was part of that so obviously not a cure all. He had 1 hit in a game we scored 21 runs. So both those events indicate we’ll be ok without him for 1 game. You need depth. Borba is a scholarship guy too. Very little downside to giving him a day off. Even if we lose because of his replacement, there’s upside for the remainder of the season.
  6. It’s ACU this week for example. We shouldn’t need him. What we need him is to hit like an all conference player. It’s not about working through a slump. It’s a slight moment to relax and regenerate himself.
  7. Long season. That’s what midweek games are for. He’s 4 for his last 21 and generally looked shitty doing it. 1 XBH is his last 13 games or so. Yeah he needs a day off.
  8. Time for Powell to sit a game out. I know it’s come up, but that’s why with 2nd/3rd and 1 out the runner on 3rd should go on contact. We score nothing if he doesn’t. The negative is low risk.
  9. All depends on who we start in our red zone package
  10. Seems like everytime I see Flores on a cutoff he’s letting the ball bounce.
  11. Run vs Pass. Who gives a damn who starts. All those guys are playing. Situational substitution and matchups are what matter. Same at TE. Same at RB. Maybe even G. Some at CB perhaps. Maybe some at S. And we might even start the occasional game with two TEs. And you never know when we might start with 3 LBs.
  12. Either I can’t add or you’re missing a top 10 P/K and 2 in the top 50.
  13. Thomas, Flores, Belyeu, Powell, Galvan, Schuessler, Whitehead, Grubbs. All dudes playing as well or better than ever. Brown, Jack and LBJ (one real bad start) I suppose are the regressions. Freshmen that we can’t say they regressed. Gasparino, Kennedy. Borba and Farmer you can’t tell because they haven’t played much. Witt and Shaw have jacked up arms. Then the rest are largely just some guys that fit certain roles. Maybe Hornsby is on it. They’re just losers.
  14. It’s not all Pierce. It’s not a lack of talent. It’s not that our pitching is terrible or that we can’t hit. LBJ was terrible tonight. But he’s the same guy that went into Miami and shut them down last year. Did he go from balls of steel to gutless? I’m not sure what it is. There’s a lot of theories thrown out here that there are reasons to question the accuracy of those theories. That doesn’t mean there is not some truth there either. The whole Witt situation brings up a number of questions. It wouldn’t surprise me if it had a significant impact on the entire team. From energy to confidence to strategy to roster composition. You can’t really point to one thing with this team. Tuesdays hitting was surprising. LBJs performance tonight was surprising. So the next disappointment will probably be something else.
  15. Damn DP resorting to throwing shit at people to deflect attention from his terrible coaching job.
  16. Did we set a record for most runs given up in an inning?
  17. Those KSU ERAs are not up to the Surly standard.
  18. As far as I know, you were never worth a shit at anything. But, yes, I’m a shadow of my former self. I guess that is somehow comparable to Witt.
  19. As it turns this is true. I don’t recall reading anything indicating leading into the season that his arm was shot. I’d assume that all parties were operating based on available medical information. And the tone was that the fans were happy to have him back. Not for what we got but what we’d reasonably hoped he could provide.
  20. So you’re saying losing a guy that has performed at a somewhat high level, performed well at the CWS, that MLB teams viewed as a high level prospect doesn’t have the potential to take this team a step higher? Okay.
  21. Yes, it should be a given. But on these boards, I’m never certain. Suppose I said that as I’d be considered pro-DP. I see positives with him but it’s as much pro-Texas as anything. I’m almost always pro player so I’ll be positive on that front even though my opinions/views have no impact on the actual season. Mix in a little homerism and we’re finishing strong. As annoying as that hope may be to some. Not the “finishing strong” but my optimism for the finish.
  22. Are you saying those statements are false? My comment was just stirring the pot. Honestly I have no idea who would be the top 5/10 coaches. They’ll all have flaws. And it would be like Sark - right place, right time as to which guy would be best. I don’t give up on the season until it’s over. That’s where I am. I see the upside to this team although that takes a hit with the Witt news. I’m more a DP fan than ever just cause all the shit talkin but that’s my mentality - right or wrong. But I’m more about Texas succeeding than any coach. I’ll worry about next year after this year.
  23. Wait, are you trying to tell us he went from CWS finalist to 5th in the B1G in 3 years time? Or that in year 10 they were worse than in year 3?
  24. @HenryJames can you tell me what % of our NIL Witt ate up to not pitch? And who we passed on to get him back. That’s terrible for him. He seems as orange blooded as any player we got which makes it a bit more disappointing.
