Kirby Smart was complaining that certain programs (USC obviously, Oregon, Tennessee, Miami) are getting recruits to commit quickly by offering $$ during their high school senior year. The number tossed around was $20K/month with stipulations that if you didn't stick to the commitment you had to pay the money back. Guessing a player as good as Bowman might warrant even more, right? Especially before the House settlement goes into effect. Just guessing, no insider knowledge ... but makes more sense than "I just want to grow the game of golf" oops, wrong sport - "We are taking over the city! All of the talent that’s here, we gotta bring it to USC". Yeah, OK.

He’ll get a 50% payment on June 30th, and as a California resident, he can accept the payment as a high schooler (he’s still 16, IIRC). USC wanted to get this deal done before the House settlement to avoid the NIL deal review process by PWC. This deal is signed and done, there won’t be any de-commitment because the kids dad isn’t paying back millions in December. There’s a difference in USC being able to keep a recruit from California (where the kid can accept the NIL cash immediately), and US. being able to keep a recruit from Georgia (Justice Terry, E.Griffin, Xavier Griffin, etc). Texas and UGA were very smart not to pay this kid $8m-$10m as no college TE is worth that amount, and particularly one who’ll be limited by USC’s QB (J.Maiava for the next 2 years….LOL!). Bowman was a kid shopped nationally to high schools by his father (IMG, SLC, Mater Dei) so this end game is absolutely no surprise.

aggy is keeping Michael Earley as their head baseball coach @longhornfrenzy1 on the X

Only a couple of schools make decisions like this. USC is one of them. With those numbers, don’t expect UT to compete. we will need to move on to our next TE prospect in the NFL, a freak TE is worth a numbers buster in college, not so much

Great innings from Hudson Hamilton today as well.

Need more consistent at bats from inning to inning but if you can drop a 5 spot at any moment, its going to be tough to be beat in the regional.

Good W

Today's game felt like a typical midweek game. Nothing to write home about, but it got the job done.

Wow, this sucks. I thought this would at least go passed his visit date. USC must have blown their wad on a TE, very surprising!!!!

This is the stage where we expect teams to execute, not play down to their opponents.

Money isn’t even escrowed, at this point it’s just the promise of that.

In the NIL era of recruiting, expect the unexpected

Today, it was Victor Rojas and Keith Moreland.

Who are the announcers, Jeff?

Great win

The Longhorns will meet the winner of tonight's game between UTSA and Kansas State at 8 p.m. tomorrow.

FINAL: Texas 7, Houston Christian 1

A 6-4 fielder's choice puts Texas one out away from the win.

It hasn't been anywhere near this bad this season. At least in terms of the volume of errors in one game.

Serious question, are we the worst base running team left playing?

End of 8: Texas 7, Houston Christian 1

Mendoza grounds out to third to end the inning. Hamilton is back out to try and finish this one off.

Whats the chsnce Usc Making play off are like 10%…..Texas makin plaoffs are…70% … Arches odds of hiesman tropy 25% id say Sarks gonna drift off …let usc celebrate… their schedule will enough rope to hang themselves… Sark willswooooop in like he did with those boyz in Cali… Worthy , Sharma….etc etc….
