Bingo. We have about 2 institutional donors who bankroll the baseball team.

I just think you are a homer and dont have any room to be critical of anything. I mean there has to be a reason why a&m and jay are doing better than us in the portal and at the end of the day the blame has to fall to someone at texas cause its an area that needs to improve. You are saying institutional commitment to baseball but that is not how NIL works most of the money doesnt come from rev share in the two other major sports. Texas seems very committed to baseball look what they did in the regional they added extra seating on outfield I dont think its an institution issue.

OU doesn't have great NIL for baseball and still won it all and played for another natty four years prior to that. LSU has top 5 baseball NIL and missed the tourney last season, so it's about getting hot at the right time more than NIL budgets I guess.

As best I can tell Laya was 1-11 versus Texas, 3-16 versus UCLA, and 4-15 versus USC. 2 doubles. He did tear Yale up in the regional. Played well versus Nebraska. Great games versus Purdue, Northwestern. As a senior in high school, his average decreased 50 points from his junior year although homers went up. He must have some really good advanced metrics because his performance is not that special to date.

Cape Verde deserves all the flowers for taking Argentina to FT + ET and only losing by 1.

NIL is not the sole responsibility of the head coach. There has to be institutional commitment and buy-in. I see you in every basketball thread and I know you saw Gerry say that CDC stepped up to the plate to help out Miller and the program. I’m beginning to realize this back and forth is pointless. You believe that Schloss needs to “energize” a bunch of donors that already give money. I guess Jay Johnson and Michael Earley did a great job energizing their donors coming off great seasons! Texas needs better institutional commitment to baseball. Tradition and history and the most CWS appearances of all time don’t win bidding wars. You think the only reason Nolan Cain left is a pay raise? He has worked at both places and knows the resources he has to work with.

I knew it as soon as it was posted that they were the competition. This one stings.

L is for L O S E R ! 🤘🏽🤘🏾🤘🏿

12 and 16!! McCoy and Street

I know very little about soccer, but I have been watching them. I haven't found them to be a good enough offensive team to beat England. I hope they win though.

Then what explains him missing on so many portal players ? Miller sure didn’t and it was his first year plus yes I do think A&M is more loose with their money that’s what I mean by he needs to energize donors.

So to be clear, you think Schloss was able to energize everyone at A&M to give boatloads of money but isn’t able to do that here because he isn’t doing a good enough job of “energizing” everyone at Texas? That sounds silly just typing it out.

Yes but LSU spent so much on kiffin and the new coach. The spending for them is very high was my point

Texas football has a better class than LSU and so does Texas basketball.

Hopefully all the focus is getting every freshman to campus besides Emerson and Bumila at this point.

I think A&M is more easily energized look what they are doing in football so yes. Just look at schloss lineup that was runner up that was in year 2 or 3 of him and that is no where near where he is in year 3 here.

Have you ever stepped back and wondered by baseball NIL at A&M was never a problem for Schlossnagle or elite head coach Michael Earley? Was Schloss was able to energize donors at A&M but isn’t able to do it at Texas? I find that hard to believe.

I donate and will complain as I see fit Mike 😉😂

It costs a lot to keep guys like pack, a rod, volantis , cozart, etc. Garcia , Armstrong , and Solitaria weren’t cheap either. Everyone RELAX

1B Borba , 2B TBD, SS A Rod, 3B Garcia, C Armstrong, LF Pack, CF Jonah/Goldenetz, RF Solitaria.. We’re also most likely getting Autrey and/or Peterson to Campus and those guys will come in and hit as freshman. Not to mention we’re going to have the best 1-2 starting duo possibly in the country . We’re not done in the portal either. Like I said we’re still going to be really good next year.

Can he throw a strike?

They still weren't getting him money if schloss is getting lockered by aggy and Lsu for recruits he isnt getting the money he needs so donors arent all that.

I mean I donate so I get what you are saying but it's still on the coach to get people to open the wallets thats all im saying. LSU is literally spending so much this year in all of the major men sports including a new coach hire

When the “cool” numbers become available they switch.
