Bobby, CJ and myself are in the bubble for Pro Day. We'll keep updates here.

@Gerry Hamilton What are realistic expectations for minutes per game for Goosby and Ogden as freshman? Also any chance that Codie looks to stay after him being called into action late in the season and giving valuable minutes?

Out of curiosity, how much of this is driven by shoe money? These numbers make football NIL seem rational. At the top end, these figures look like $1M per scholarship player.

What do we need?

Texas was already getting a decent bump up in year two. If it came down to needing a little more from one more player or in retention ... I can see it

it's in Indiana, a huge basketball state, so not sure why it shouldn't be.

@Gerry Hamiltonyou think Sean getting us to the sweet 16 will up his portal budget for the upcoming year? Feel like he should be able to go out and spend a lot more now, he’s proven.

All depends on if he gets a first round "guarantee". If he does, he's gone. If it was any other draft, he would be a guaranteed first rounder. This draft is a beast from the top through the first round. Swain's one of 8-10 guys vying for 4 late first round slots IMO. NBA teams truly like him. If he doesn't get a guarantee, decent odds he returns for a final season - as of today. Will be interesting.

Stretch 4, but with defensive presence around the rim Team runner/CG/PG ... best fit. Austin Goosby will play as a CG next year, but secondary to portal get. Off guard/wing that can shoot it, but also has defensive ability Back up center with experience. Guard depth piece, has to be able to shoot it and handle ball pressure. Probably another roll player, as it stands today.

Think those are all a little low, and 3-4 considerably (meaning 1.5-2 mill) Moving forward need 10.5-11.5 mill to feel really good about it on an annual basis in the current landscape

I'm betting on at least three

Here's an interesting WSJ article: "While home runs continue to soar out of stadiums at near-record levels, doubles and triples are disappearing from the sport at an alarming rate. Games in 2025 featured an average of just 3.19 doubles, the fewest in an uninterrupted campaign since 1992. Nearly 800 two-baggers have vanished from the game over the course of this decade." https://www.wsj.com/sports/baseball/mlb-baseball-opening-day-triples-a5c30f00?st=bjmAEK&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink

Lots of great baseball to start SEC play, but after this weekend can’t we just get a team outside of the top 15 🤣?!

Is it too early to book a hotel in Omaha?

Texas baseball is finding a way to hang in there and win despite some crucial missteps in this early conference season. To go in and win that series at Auburn after a disastrous bottom nine loss on an error in game one, giving up four runs, really speaks highly for our team and its resiliency. We just need to keep getting better and reach our potential, peaking at the end of the season.
