Not close, by any stretch. If you win the SEC regular-season title, you had a good year.

I never thought of this as anymore than a rebuilding year and shook my head a lot at the rankings. From my POV we way overachieved in reality and underachieved based on flawed rankings.

Great season…exceeded all of our expectations!  Now time for Jonah to get his butt across the street and into football practice!  Beat OSU!!!

Don’t they start tomorrow?? Wonder if he will be out there!

[Hi im Boo Corrigan]

Max was emotional rounding the bases. Incredible career from #44. Gonna miss him

[bourbasted]

How uninspired.

[HornsUp Tom]

Not the first time I’ve relied on softball to pick me up from this baseball teams loss lol

Agree.   Great regular season.  Look forward to seeing how Schloss builds the team for 2026.   
 

Now it’s time for Texas Women’s Softball to bring their best against Tennessee tomorrow.

🧡🐂🤘🏼

How much does this hurt us in the Directors Cup?

I doubt it. He needs to get his hamstring right.

[jkates]

Strange that the Longhorns couldn't find some heart or fight against UTSA in any of their matchups this season. Tip of the hat to the Roadrunners.  

Sour end to a great season. Coach Schloss turned the ship around and should be able to build on this.

I told him at the Arkansas series to not get hurt before football season lol!! I knew he had some issues. Is it just a minor injury? 

[MikeH]

Team peaked too early and was ultimately rocked by Spencer’s injury. That had a huge ripple effect on the rest of the staff and pitching was never the same after. Also stinks that Gasparino and Flores lost their bats about 2 months ago and never found them.

I agree with the sentiment that this team probably overachieved early for what it was. That said, great first season for Schloss and hope he is ready to re-load for 2026.

It's a hamstring, so the only thing that will heal it is rest. It's nagging at this point.

[MikeH]

Also, that UTSA team can really play. Wouldn’t shock me if they make it to Omaha.

Probably Max Belyeu's last AB at Disch-Falk is a two-run home run to right. 

I'm gonna miss that guy. He's was so damn fun to watch

A few thoughts:

We should be proud of this group. Obviously a very disappointing ending and embarrassing to be honest but none of us had the expectation that this team should win the SEC. We all knew throughout the season that this team was overachieving and had a magical run throughout the first 21 games of SEC play. They just ran out of gas and losing Jared Spencer was too much to overcome.

Texas will attack the portal and Schloss will bring in guys he thinks will be Dudes.

Dylan Volantis is going to be a superstar next season and I would think might be the Ace or Saturday guy of the staff.

Schloss’s best teams are ahead of him and I have no doubt he will win this program a National Championship.

I think the Will Gasparino experience should be over.

 

[Texasborn91]

Felt like this team punched way above their weight all season. Injuries and just kinda falling back down to earth a little. Still think they should have advanced to the supers. 

[Bobby_Batronic]

Limped into the post season and then limped out of it. 
 

SEC championship exceeds all expectations.

Better days are ahead  

 

[horns96]

Good night and good luck🤘

This is the most logical and balanced take that I have seen.
