Glad to hear.

Thank. You.

Bobby, and you and your team are so appreciated. Truly the best in the business. Think about a woman's Longhorn show next year. Hook'em

LOL, it should have been harsh, for me to forget the great Texas Longhorn swim and dive team is criminal for longhorn fan.

I think Rev share is from the schools

Thanks Jeff 🤘

I haven't heard anything negative in that regard since the Cain news came out.

What is the difference between NIL and Rev share?

He's played a big role in putting this roster together, no doubt. But I'm not expecting a mass exodus of talent following him to College Station. The pitchers are at Texas because of Max Weiner and the position players like playing for Schloss and Tulo. Losing Cain stings, but if Weiner left, for instance, I'd be worried about guys on the roster following him.

So what’s the backstory? Is this going to be another one of those things that can’t be disclosed, like the women’s basketball departures?

Doesn’t seem like Cain does much on the field coaching, so not sure why any players would follow him. Seems like Schloss, Tulo and Weiner play the biggest roles in development

@Blake Munroe @Jeff Howe @CJ Vogel How much of this roster do you attribute to Nolan Cain? And any chance some of our studs follow him? Great recruiter, but shouldn’t be too hard to replace if all our best guys stay put. Could easily see this team being better next year hiring Marder from Oregon and bringing in Laya, Armstrong and a few others

You know, you can express concern with a direction without it being an overreaction, right? Not everything is good, nor does everything happen because Texas wants it to.

The overreaction on this thread is hilarious. Mediocre? Defind? The program with the most conference titles. The program with the 2nd most men's natty's behind swimming and diving. Uh ok

I get what you’re saying. I know a couple people who are decently close to baseball program people and I’m not kidding you about the financial commitment baseball gets. It’s not as much as you’d think. Combine that with losing the key recruiting guy who built those A&M teams for Schloss, and yeah, I think we may be in for some trouble. I’m not saying we’re going to lose everything, but I am saying that we may lose recruitments we should win (see Bino + Clemson catcher). There was a reason things “didn’t work out” with Bino.

Okay but nobody seems to be panicking about it and seems like a new hire could be in the works in a few days. I'm sure Schloss was aware of it. I just don't see it as a reason to go into full blown panic mode. Again, saying it's "no secret" but not providing any proof is still blowing smoke. I don't think Schloss would've bothered with the move to Texas if there was no investment into Baseball, which is a big deal at Texas. If you want more investment, you need to fight for it and show it. Sark had to do the same for Football. Now if it does bite us in the ass, I'll happily (or sadly) eat crow on it but right now I'm just not seeing the cause for panic.

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.
