    I like the Braves, except when the Astros play them in the WS.

    I am sure the board is fairly evenly split between the two teams but I have been an Astro fan since the late 60s. I saw Willie Mays hit a HR in the Dome, Larry Dierker pitch a shutout while the Dome’s roof leaked, and Cesar Cedeno make spectacular catches in the outfield. I remember lying still in bed listening to the Astros on my transistor radio and not moving for fear of breaking the mojo the team had going that night. Great memories.

    Thanks

    Horrible news for the kid. I hope he is able to recover fully.

    I agree. Considering the purgatory that UT football has been stuck over the last decade plus, the fact that we are discussing upwards of 50+ players on the current roster being on possible NFL rosters is amazing. Once again, very good work by the OP.

    Great input. Thanks

    I am confident that Sark will be able to dial up some short passes and quick releases for Quinn.

    Always sad when a young athlete is injured and forced to miss the season.
  9. Robert Gilbert
    Thanks for the info. Since Schloss is at UT and not at A&M, I would assume that favors us.
  10. Robert Gilbert
    While your statement may be correct, it really doesn’t matter. What matters is who is getting significant snaps during crunch rime of big games (Mich, Georgia, OU, a&m).
  11. Robert Gilbert
    That is very interesting. I would think that graduating early, playing baseball, and participating in Spring football practice would favor Texas. Schloss being here gives us a leg up, IMO.
  12. Robert Gilbert
    Thanks for the updates and looking forward to many, many more today.

    Unfortunately, I am only able to make it to Austin to see one or two games a year so I can understand the season ticket holders being upset with this schedule. However, much like SEC football teams, maybe he is trying to get some wins to pad the team’s resume before the tournament.

    As a Cowboy and Longhorn fan, D’Mo being successful in Dallas is a win-win.

    I think you have proven your point. However, keep in mind that Bush and Taffe did or are doing what over 95% of this board have never done, which is play D1 football. Should Texas have all 4 or 5 stars on the field all times, maybe in a perfect world. However, since we do not live in a perfect world we need to keep in mind that these young men are living the dream that so many of us have had but never experienced. So continually pointing out their shortcomings does no favors to this board, the players, or yourself.

    Blake, I think that baseball uses analytics as much or more than any other sport. Can you go into how much Schloss uses analytics compared to our previous staff? Plus, while the title ‘Director of Analytics’ seems self explanatory, can you go into the position’s exact job description?

    I have quite a few signed memorabilia items. Mostly Longhorn and Cowboy but I do have others like my pic of Kenneth Hall, the one time leader in HS rushing and TDs. However, this is probably one of my favorites. Not a great picture but acceptable.
  18. Robert Gilbert
    Strange recruitment.
  19. Robert Gilbert
    Great news. Recruit through the whistle.

    Taylor was one hell of a LB in the late 70s. I had a coaching friend of mine, who played and lost to Taylor’s HS team, that he was the vest LB he had ever seen.
  21. Robert Gilbert
    He was a very good player. A look below.
  22. Robert Gilbert
    Any info on how this will affect the walk-on program at UT?
  23. Robert Gilbert
    A look at Earl while in HS.
  24. Robert Gilbert
    Such a tease. Seriously, I appreciate your input and keep up the good work.

    How would Gerry or anyone on any UT board know what is going on except for what he is told by the player, family member, or a coach? Do players, agents, or family members have agendas that Gerry does not know? Probably. For example, Sharma told numerous people he was coming to Texas but changed his mind. DK committed to UT on his OV but changed his mind. We are talking about 16, 17, 18 year olds who are a bundle of hormones who change their minds quicker than some run a 40. If you feel that you are being deceived or not getting money’s worth…leave.
