Sunday Morning Baseball Notes


Recommended Posts

  • Moderators

I’ve said for a couple of weeks now that the Horns will use football to their advantage all season long. This weekend was no different. 

Texas hosted SEVEN kids this weekend, including some top out of state talent. 

We’ve seen it already pay off when they landed Georgia infielder Reiston Durham. Perfect Game graded Durham a 9 (out of 10), which means they feel like he has the talent to be a top 10 round pick in the MLB Draft and/or a major contributor at the collegiate level. 

That’s the only commitment the Longhorns have landed publicly. 

Behind the scenes, however, I can promise you that Schloss and his staff hit a grand slam this weekend. Things went very well. 


They aren’t done yet when it comes to commitments.

Blake can you give us football recruitniks some basics on baseball recruiting. How many yearly scholarships partial scholarships walkons do we get. Any idea what percent of perfect game 10 recruits ever make it to college?  I have a feel for basketball lotto pick types but no idea for baseball. Thanks for bringing baseball knowledge to the site!

This ended up being an extremely rewarding weekend. Manis, Krenek, Rangel, Peterson, and Thompson all committed to Texas, while Lord chose Florida and Smejkal is still uncommitted.
