Schloss said he can't remember a time at this stadium where the wind was blowing out like it was today or like it's expected to on Saturday.

Schloss: "We're excited to be here, excited to represent Texas and we understand the assignment."

"At Texas, the fact that it's the 39th trip, it's a bad season if you don't finish it in Omaha," Schloss said before mentioning that the success of other sports on the Forty Acres has put additional pressure on the Longhorns. "The standard is very high among all of our coaches."

That's it for Harrison and Tinney. Schloss will now take questions from the media.

"The key to getting any good hitter out is throwing strike one," Harrison said when asked how the Longhorns plan to handle Daniel Jackson.

Harrison said the benefit of playing in the SEC is the depth of the league and how it prepares you for anything you see in the postseason.

Tinney said, "It's to be expected" that Texas is in a CWS bracket with three other SEC teams. "We play in the best conference in the country," he said.

Tinney said the Longhorns maximizing their time together is a great way to fill the time before Saturday night. Whether it's going out to eat or hanging around the stadium, Harrison said the Longhorns are looking forward to taking in the College World Series as a team.

Soccer and women’s cross country. Soccer 0 points is probably why we have a new coach. See my edits to earlier post.

Harrison's last time in Omaha was in 2022, when Texas was eliminated by a Texas A&M team coached by Jim Schlossnagle.

Sloth from the goonies needs to stick to being a corrupt politician

Harrison and Tinney are both asked about Dylan Volantis. Harrison said the physical tools have always been there, but he's seen a lot of Volantis grow and mature since his freshman season. Specifically, off the field, Harrison said Volantis has done a lot on how own to change his preparation and how he takes care of his body.

I did not realize that Paxton is doing his job. The Attorney General is representing Texas Tech, which is a state university . Paxton would do the same thing for the University of Texas if the same thing were happening to the UT quarterback.

Tinney: "It's great to be here, but the job hasn't even started."

Harrison said the Longhorns have tried to take everything in that comes with a trip to Omaha, but "our job isn't done. It hasn't even started."

Tinney said he's learned a lot from Max Weiner on how to handle a pitching staff. "He's very wise and very knowledge-based," Tinney said of Weiner. "He's a wizard. He's the most interesting man I've ever met."

Thanks. Which of the sports are the two that are not in the top 19 sports scores?

Carson Tinney met Daniel Jackson when they played in the Cape Cod League last summer. Tinney didn't take the bait on the comparison question. He said he's just ready to get to Saturday.

On coming out of the bullpen in the postseason, Luke Harrison said the preparation and the workload are a little different. Still, "the transition has been great," he said. "As a competitor, you want the ball in the biggest moments," he said.

Schloss: "We're just fired up for Saturday night."

Texas has 21 sports, the Directors Cup consists of best 19 sports scores. Men’s and women’s cross country are two separate teams, men’s and women’s indoor track and field, outdoor track and field are also separated. That’s 6 sports, Elrick Floreal is HC for all 6. Hope this helps.

Texas' first ballgame is going to be a banger. Game 4: No. 6 Texas vs. No. 3 Georgia – 7:00 p.m. (ESPN)

We're a few minutes away from starting the press conference. Texas went through its open practice at Charles Schwab Field earlier this afternoon.

So for Top 10: 5 Big10 schools (3 of which are PAC), 3 SEC, 2 ACC and.... zero Big 12. Got it. 🤘
