The woman sponsor of the bill seemed to insinuate that the SEC and the Big10 didn't really provide input like others did and both have shot back I think. In some ways it would be good to have some legislation, but I don't think they should be legislating conference realignment, how many teams can be in a conference, etc.

Here we go - figured it out haha

I’ve been holding onto a Cedric Benson 2001 signed novelty - it’s on the Build-a-Bear pajamas of the BaB my mother had made me before a long trip back in 2001. She was and is a diehard Longhorn and received her masters at UT Austin which is what prompted me to ask to have the keepsake she gave me autographed. (As a 10 year old I thought she’d appreciate a longhorn’s autograph). Some of the UT football players from that season visited my middle school - Leander Middle School - I can’t remember why they were there, but I do remember them having an autograph table in our cafeteria. I’ve kept it in a box for 25 years and I’d like for it to maybe go to someone who can actually appreciate such a unique (and super random) artifact. I can’t seem to upload a photo but am happy to provide one! Thanks! -AM

0% chance that change actually happens. The MLBPA will never go for that.

I really think we received the worst seeding in Omaha we possibly could have gotten.

Thanks Jeff!!

Two visitors on campus yesterday. We’re expecting some news soon.

During OU's run of dominance, except for a couple of recruited players, they got the best transfer pitcher almost every year. With public NIL, that run has stopped for now. Jordy Frahm Bahl went home, Karlyn Pickens stayed home, Canady went to Tech, Kavan stayed at Texas, Terry went to Tech, Fischer went to Georgia, etc.

I hope it’s just me and my PTSD but I’m starting to get Dakorien vibes from Royal. Somebody talk me off the ledge. Sorry,Joe, for using the D word so close the 4th of July!

This is a great compromise, especially now with NIL. Takes away the onus for teams to have 8 levels of player development.

This is the most honest post I have seen. " a wife & 2 daughters" . . . You're definitely not looking for drama. BTW, JoeZ keep the posts coming. Something about your humor resonates in Thailand! Hook 'em Bad Boy from the Badlands 🤘🏼

Big one comes off the board

I believe her brother is a three-star QB in Kansas as well. Applewhite is recruiting him to South Alabama.

This thread:

Kiffin and LSU staff utilized Monshun Sales' visit to show him that he does not need to share the spotlight with Royal in Austin. They pitched Sales on becoming the clear-cut, undisputed alpha WR1 of their own elite 2027 class, without Easton Royal. They immediately turned up the heat to a frantic level on Royal the moment Sales departed campus. LSU is playing a high-risk game of musical chairs because they lack confidence in landing either player.

Henry Bolte pretty good outfielder for the athletics was a Texas commit. He's hitting 310 in the MLB this season

True leadership.

You guys covering baseball did a fantastic job. I've had a blast learning the sport and watching the games, when I used to think baseball was boring af. Great season, disappointing end and here's to hoping we come back next year even stronger.

I don't have access to comprehensive stats but I wonder how our LOB and K rates looks relative to top teams both in conference play and on Tuesdays. To be ready for the Omaha tourney format, the situational urgency to manufacture runs needs to be repped in season (which I know doesn't necessarily mean bunting). Without digging in, we may have just had some feast or famine games but I wonder if stats would reveal anything.

Only hardcore college football fans care about this and that's a pretty small number compared to the electorate as a whole

Recent history would suggest that the NCAA doesn't have control over anything.

Applies to any representative who supports it.

Cruz isn't up for reelection until 2030 and by then this will be water under bridge
