Just something that needed to work itself out.

Just added this in and the end of the story, as I forgot to put it in… Lugo chose Texas over Arkansas, North Carolina and Georgia.

A natural left-handed pitcher who dials it up to 92 mph on the mound, his arm strength translates beautifully to the outfield.

@Blake Munroe love this! can you go into any specifics of what took so long? Was he weighing his options? Or what was the holdup?

Yes.

@Blake Munroe is Texas done in portal?

Natty or bust now!!

LOVE this pickup. This is why I kept telling yall to not pencil anyone in as a starter yet.

Nice!

Campbell was an insane snub from the tournament they got kids that can absolutely play

The mystery has been solved!

Texas has landed a really intriguing addition in the portal with Campbell outfielder Carlos Lugo. Lugo put together an outstanding true freshman season in 2026, earning First Team All-CAA and CAA All-Rookie Team honors after hitting .347 with a team-high 77 hits. He started 54 games, posted 25 multi-hit games, drew 32 walks, and put together a 15-game hitting streak during the season. He also earned CAA Rookie of the Week honors four different times. Lugo isn’t just an outfielder, either. He made eight relief appearances on the mound, posting a 3.48 ERA with 12 strikeouts in 10.1 innings and recording his first career save late in the season. Coming out of Calvary Christian Academy in Florida, Lugo hit .494 as a senior with 12 doubles, seven home runs and 17 stolen bases, while finishing in the top 10% of his graduating class academically. With this commitment, Texas adds another proven bat with multiple years of eligibility. Lugo chose Texas over Arkansas, North Carolina and Georgia.

Big 10 Commish on if bill isn't passed. https://x.com/RossDellenger/status/2082133809865031721?s=20

Great to see this after two years cut short due to ACL injuries. Hope to see J Brooks succeed this year!

Would love to get my guy Dan Neil and his take on the o line and how they can gel and improve this season.

This!!

The misconception here is that the media-rights fight is about forcing the SEC and Big Ten into a TV pool. It never was. Joining has always been voluntary. The real question is whether the final bill keeps enough incentives, or consequences, that "voluntary" quietly turns into "you'd better join." Postseason access was the actual lever, which is why Sankey went after it. Take that out and the section sits in the bill doing nothing. Those two keep cutting their own deals, and a pool without their inventory isn't the $4-8 billion everybody's been selling. So: political win for Cody Campbell, policy win for the SEC and Big Ten. He gets to say Congress passed a national framework. They get to say they protected the model that already runs the sport. But did we fix anything? The biggest spenders are already operating around these caps through associated entities. If the bill just legalizes what they're already doing, that's not a ceiling, that's a floor.

This fooled me for a second. AI is getting really good.

It’s going to happen and going to be huge!

Can’t wait to see what UT could pull! Nike research all the universties and UT was #1
