    Don’t remember ever doing bull in the ring.

    Maybe Woody is just more likeable. The name alone sounds more approachable.

    Maybe a season momentum building series.

    Hey now, I don’t twitter. I don’t mind throwing out some internet threats. Might even throw out some in person, but they won’t go beyond whipping some ass and into this territory. It is sobering when I think I’m old enough, and then some, to be his dad. Damn. There is a considerable amount of bitchass on this site and I ain’t apologizing for jabbin back at anyone or highlighting the positives for any player. For all outward appearances our dudes play hard and are good teammates. That’s what I ask. For Texas baseball, I take it as a given they have talent or they wouldn’t be here. Beyond that, it’s the coaches job to put them in position to find success. As for next year, I hope Sthele comes back and gets half the board shitting their pants. Either way, we’re positioned to return to Omaha. Play big at the big moments. Imo.

    Regarding discussion on Galvans D, I recall hearing that the C on his knee is teaching point these days to help the pitcher keep the ball down. I know there was discussion on that earlier this season. I’m not a fan of that, but it’s less concerning than his receiving and blocking/catching those he should. It still is a thing that you can live with offensive holes at either C, SS, or CF. You just can’t have holes at all 3. Maybe not even 2. The truth is mediocre seasons can be had if they heat up come the post season. With the abilities of this team, we could likely live with a mediocre hitter at C. Galvan can likely give enough offense, but he can’t be a liability defensively.

    Any players kicked off? I’ve heard no mention of that.

    I’d be curious to see the numbers of our DH. I’m not sure it was that bad. Flores horrible average was largely due to his non-DH games. Maybe the stats say differently, but that’s my recollection. Much of Galvans work was at C with GG DHIng there. Carlson was doing fine until he got hurt. Mind you, I’m not saying DH was good or average.

    I’m here all year bro.

    Ain’t gonna matter. Too stacked.

    Has anyone seen @HenryJames and DDA in the same place at the same time?

    10 starts out of the first 12 or so with 4 hits and two walks is a pretty long leash. That’s 50% more plate appearances then Belyeu had on the season. There’s nothing comparable about their seasons/opportunities. Just as a counter to Flores, Powell was 7-22 in his first two seasons. 5 XBHs. So he got a whole 8 ABs the next season. This season. 1 start in the first 8 games. I can’t recall such a poor statistical freshman season with that many ABs as Flores. He had a few big moments and a huge one against Miami. The HR versus OSU was nice. I look forward to big things from Flores and think he’ll better for it.

    Why wouldn’t this be a concern for Belyeu? He was well thought of too. I realize discussions happen and there could have been very different discussions regarding playing time. Flores had a long leash from the beginning. I don’t think Galvan had many DH opportunities as GG would DH to allow Galvan to play C. Carlson was doing well at DH until he got hurt. Belyeu only had 5 games with multiple ABs. Never had more than 3 in a game. Was 4-11 when getting multiple ABs. His usage was odd.

    We had one guy we couldn’t lose. Not a big guy at that. A play that virtually guarantees a hit on your QB and the one guy you can’t lose. So no, it was not a safe play. It was not anywhere not amongst our best plays in the playbook either. And you’re correct he was going left which probably exposed his throwing shoulder more. So even if he’s not hurt on the play, you still don’t want a shot on that shoulder. But hey if it works well, we get 7-8 yards. We didn’t have many others that could have done that. We’re not great at running the play equals little reward. Guaranteed hit on your QB equals high risk.
  14. Had Enough
    Might never have happened had we not resorted to calling a play with little reward and massive risk. I believe that would have been Davis. If Colt finishes the game, we win and there’s no need change offensive philosophy.

    Are you saying that LSU over Texas should be a certainty? Both are strong enough options that it’s the variables in that particular kid that make one the better option. And that answer is different depending on the kid.
  16. Had Enough
    Burns still is available? He’s gotta be the guy. His stat line is crazy and great/mediocre all at the same time. K numbers are great. Walks are very good. But half his hits were for extras. His HRs really came back in line with their other starters. His ERA wasn’t great, but we’re more interested in what you can do for us than what you’ve already done.

    I’m trying to stay out of here, but y’all draw me in. Can we get a numerical rating to define “ass?”

    I was debating the assertion that equally productive younger guys deserve the nod over older guys simply because they’re younger. That’s a different discussion if you’re talking a 30 year old dude on his last leg/younger guy as compared to a 19 year old/21 year old. I have no doubt that Dalys move was based at least in part on discussions with Pierce. I’d speculate his mind was made up before that discussion. There should have been no guarantees of playing time for Daly. It also wouldn’t be surprising of discussions of more competition coming. So Daly chose and I’d assume Pierce was ok with that. Truth is there are better statistical options than Daly and Flores to be found. We’re hopeful Flores hits some of that potential, but there’s little proof there at this time.

    So about those cornerbacks…………

    Dearest Bro While not 100% sarcasm, there was a fair amount of it. I don’t know Hardge but don’t trust Hardge. As not a casual Longhorn baseball fan, I like Tulo so I’d like him involved in the program. He might make a damn good head guy. Maybe even soon. Probably not us since we’re too good to take such a risk. As to Woody, we don’t need to cycle thru pitching coaches every year. We don’t need to sign guys for one year to see whether they can or will recruit. There’s also enough in this thread to indicate that maybe it was more than just recruiting. If after one year the head guy wants the pc gone, that is not good. If the pc doesn’t care to return after one year, that is not good. I do find it unlikely that is solely attributable to recruiting given Woody had limited experience in that capacity. Lastly the post above was not posted when I worked up my post.

    Tulo coming back sounds like a perfect hedge for DP. And staff turnover. If it doesn’t work out for DP………

    Guess that section is not good enough. When I say you can have them, I mean free. However, they are listed for sale elsewhere. Just to clarify. It’s bed time so maybe tomorrow.
  23. Had Enough
    I’ve seen that referenced on more than one occasion. It’s out there whether true or not.
  24. Had Enough
    I have them listed for sale. If anyone here wants them, you can have them assuming they don’t sell first. Send me a message and I’ll delist after we arrange the transfer to your email. Section 140.

    Gotta like DPs strategy of allowing others to blow their NIL monies so that he can sweep in to get who wants in the end. That’s how I run my fantasy football auction drafts. Sound strategy.
