Put down the bathsalts PLEASE

The sky is really falling around here today. Good Lord.

Usually monthly but a few guys are now starting to get basically a signing bonus too. For example on a 200k contract, a player will get 80k upfront and 10k each month. He’ll get the 80k when he enrolls or resigns the next January etc. It’s usually a player by player basis though since all contracts/situations are different. A fair amount of agents push for the signing bonuses so they can get their percentage upfront or 50% of their percentage upfront and the rest in 6 months.

It is frustrating that all these SEC teams are getting players in the portal every day and we’re lagging behind. ATM got pitchers yesterday and today, Arkansas has been getting guys daily , Tennessee just got a big time pitcher today, Florida got another player today, etc.. All of these moves going on and all we’re hearing from the Texas side is 2 visits. Hard not to be frustrated right now..

@Blake Munroe you have some splainin to do lol

Is this the reason to the lack of portal ? Was he negative recruiting against us with that Clemson player ? Makes u wonder

If we lose pack or arod i will sh*t myself

Texas is a football & softball school. And that’s perfectly ok.

Because the guy did all of the recruiting. That’s why it’s a big deal. You’re basically bringing someone new into the fold who doesn’t have the recruiting connections Cain did. You’re now starting from scratch in the middle of portal season. Now you also have to defend from Cain poaching from us. It’s a big deal. As for funding, it’s no secret that there are other schools with bigger financial commitments to baseball. A&M commits more from an NIL + Rev share base, same with Miss State. We’re top quarter of SEC, but not first. Not saying you need to be at the top (see OU), but we do not have the biggest baseball war chest.

I’d be down with Laya and RHP Tanner Bradley

I don't understand how losing our associate head coach is cause for such a meltdown? I doubt there's not money going into the program. Schloss doesn't seem like the type of dude that would've made the move if there was no investment in the program. Unless you can provide some actual proof to that, it just seems like blowing smoke.

Never even heard of Nolan Cain until today. With that said, the sky is falling and we need to panic.

I don’t have a problem with that at all, tbh.

So Texas should defund one of the most historic programs in the country because you prefer basketball over baseball? How many national championships has basketball won? You want to turn one of the greatest programs into mediocre status to add to a sport who doesn’t carry the resume baseball does. Might as well go after swimming and softball too.

Can’t be in the middle of the SEC in baseball in rev but here they are. Truly embarrassing. Apparently all going to softball

He will have no connections in the south though. Not sure how that helps Texas much unless they are after PNW guys.

Troll troll troll your boat gently down the stream

They don't have rev share either. They are getting out bid by everyone right now

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Bingo. They aren’t getting the boosters backing like they use too.

Nolan Cain can take anyone he wants EXCEPT Ashton Larson. PLEASE DON’T TAKE ASHTON LARSON.

I fear it’s time to defund the Disch. It was a good run, let’s pack it up. Give the money to Sark to go buy the best money can buy!
