  1. Agree that the aggie DL is good but Leonard only threw for 158 yards and 5.3 yds per attempt. Once he settles into the offense he should improve…if not they are in trouble. The thing that saved ND last night was that Conner Weigman was so bad that he had an almost impossible low QB rating of 54.7. He completed 12 of 30 passes (40%), with 2 INT, for 100 yards and 3.3 yds per attempt.
  2. Riley Leonard had a QB rating of 104 last night against the aggies. If he has more games like that they will be lucky to win out. Playing at USC is no gimme but the LSU/USC game tonight will give everyone a better read on USC. And FSU has a bye week before playing at ND. Miami has an easy schedule and could win but you can never underestimate Cristobal’s ability to screw things up. FSU has the potential (maybe not the ability though…lol) to screw things up for ND and Miami.
  3. @Gerry Hamilton From the Cotton Holdings press release but it doesn’t say how much Cotton Holdings is contributing. Seems like that would be the biggest factor otherwise seems a bit overblown. “As the title sponsor, Cotton Holdings will receive rights to the Lone Star Showdown and associated intellectual property from both Texas A&M and the University of Texas. The sponsorship package includes season-long fan engagement opportunities, exposure through TV and radio broadcasts, in-venue signage, and featured storytelling on social media. Additionally, both universities will benefit from annual contributions to their respective NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) activation funds, courtesy of Cotton Holdings.”
  4. You have zero self awareness. Cute how you then play the victim. It’s not the message it’s your delivery. You act giddy like a school girl when delivering your info then wonder what’s wrong with everyone else. Look up obtuse.
  5. Is there an ignore button…I haven’t seen it yet. I can’t tell if your post was a bit of sarcasm that you were trying to wish into existence….lol
  6. You could both be right. “Not serious” is what they are saying…but we have seen ankle sprains linger for weeks. Let’s hope it’s minor.
  7. Same here. I would rather have a Secretariat type win at the Belmont Stakes, going wire to wire and winning by 31 lengths…lol
  8. Me also. That 1977 season brings back some good memories.
  9. I have zero idea why people misremember Texas vs ags as always on Thanksgiving every year. That is history reinvented. The last 38 times (1974-2011) Texas played the ags only 14 times on Thanksgiving night. The other 24 times was the Friday or Saturday after Thanksgiving. As a UT student, I still remember driving down to College Station in 1977 on the Saturday after Thanksgiving to watch Texas and Earl Campbell beat the ags 57-28.
  10. What about Herkie Walls? He played WR for Texas in the late 70’s and/or early 80’s. He was around 5’6” and maybe 160 lbs. he was pretty explosive and also played in the NFL if my memory is correct.
  11. I’ll be glad when the August 1 MLB signing deadline passes.
  12. He’s in the 2024 recruiting class.
  13. Read the same thing. I was hoping I was wrong and looked it up. https://www.spotrac.com/mlb/player/_/id/94680/lebarron-johnson-jr 2024-2024 Lebarron Johnson Jr. signed a 1 year , $500,000 contract with the Colorado Rockies, including $500,000 guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $500,000. CONTRACT TERMS: 1 yr(s) / $500,000 AVERAGE SALARY: $500,000 SIGNING BONUS: N/A
  14. Looked up his stats on the JUCO site and he also had 62 RBIs in 52 games.
  15. AUSTIN, Texas – Texas Baseball has announced the addition of Gehrig Mosiello as Director of Player Development on head coach Jim Schlossnagle's Staff. "We are so excited to add Gehrig to the Longhorn baseball family," Schlossnagle said. "Gehrig is intelligent, baseball savvy, hard-working and selfless. He has grown up in college baseball and has been a part of success on every stop in his short career, including a CWS trip with TCU. I have no doubt that our players and program will benefit from Gehrig's work and knowledge on a daily basis." Mosiello, who brings experience as an assistant and head coach, spent the 2024 season as an assistant working with the hitters at Johnson University under head coach Dave Serrano. During his time at TCU, Mosiello also served as an undergraduate assistant for two seasons and helped lead the horned frogs to a Big 12 regular season championship in 2022. Mosiello also served two seasons on the collegiate summer league staff of the Anchorage Glacier Pilots in the Alaska Baseball League. He was an assistant coach for the league championship team in 2022 and then became the youngest manager in league history to win a championship in 2023. As a player, Mosiello spent two seasons at Walters State Community College and was part of a team that advanced to the JUCO World Series before transferring to TCU. The Aledo, Texas product was twice named all-district and all-county while at Aledo High School. Mosiello's father, Bill, is the associate head coach at TCU after leading the Ohio State baseball program for two seasons. He previously served on the Horned Frogs staff from 2014-22.
  16. Agree. The slot money for those players is approximately: Rainer (11th pick) $5.7 million Gillen (18th pick) $4.3 million Sterling (37th pick) $2.5 million
  17. I hope this guy is correct
  18. Nice to have a player with his production returning. This season in 60 games: 340 Average, 18 HR, 56 RBI, 52 runs scored
