  1. Rory as well, got baited into an offensive foul, lost her cool.
  2. Most of the teams located at tournament sites seem to have a massive advantage, only Nebraska fails in baseball for Omaha. Off the top of my head: OU for softball ncaa championship Nebraska for volleyball ncaa championship (though it now rotates with about 3 other locations) Kansas for big 12 bball championships Their fans downplay it, especially sooners (because they are brain dead), but the ability for your fans logistically to show up is a massive advantage for momentum and support. It's always easier to play in front of a home crowd than it is a hostile crowd. For every rule, there's an exception and that is college station, apparently that's not really a home crowd advantage even though their fans are crazy loud and rowdy lol.
  3. They had the perfect storm this past season with: easy schedule, upper class oline, lots of returning players from the previous year, good portal class … and yet nothing to show for it other than a good record padded by easy wins. They are going to find out this year how hard it is to replace experience and continuity.
  4. National championships in the marquee sports are really tough, the baseball/softball combo has never been done before. UConn did it in basketball a few years back, and only Nebraska and USC has pulled off the football/volleyball combo, and that's only happened a total of 2 times. That Texas is potentially in the hunt for 5 of the 6 is a major testament to the school, CDC, the coaches and the programs. I say 5/6 because realistically I don't think anyone's thinking men's bball is a legitimate contender for the title this year.
  5. What is up with track and field? When Coach Flo first arrived, both teams were consistently ranked in the top 5 and competing for championships, seems like it's fallen off by a lot the last few years. There was a time when Texas had some of the best sprinters and runners in the nation and representing multiple countries in the Olympics.
  6. It's likely more a product of not a marquee matchup. While we would enjoy watching an assumed beat down of a lesser team, they probably want to show a game where both teams are big ranked names.
  7. Moseley knew with all the attention on Coleman and Wingo, he can eat and that will tremendously help his draft stock. Probably a big reason he came back.
  8. It's almost like the team doesn't emphasize practicing the three point shot. They always look hesitant unless the clock is low instead of being aggressive. It's such a massive momentum and crowd energiser for the women's game because you're not going to get any posterizing dunks.
  9. My wife wanted to test it out a few years ago, I figured alright after the trial we'll cancel, nope still have it. It's so worth it not to have the ads. And on the family plan you can add whoever you want up to 6 people, so we just split the cost with some friends making it the cost of a coffee cup each month. You also get youtube music, which allowed me to cancel spotify and apple music subs.
  10. I don't know if it was the gameplan, around the 2:44 mark, coach mentions that one of the coaches spent 2 weeks putting together a scouting report which they practiced and in the game the team, or player, didn't follow it at all, said 2 weeks worth of work out the window or something to that effect.
  11. This reminds me of a certain Texas baseball coach, just spitting facts and owning it, but you can tell he cares about the kids and representing the university and he's passionate. Great coach.
  12. Why aren’t Carlton and Crump playing? Texas sloppy and getting owned for it.
  13. Ah my mistake, how could I forget Jody's undefeated team.
  14. Of the 6 big three sports, the other 4 already have natties, only the two basketball programs are missing.
  15. Also assuming no transfers out, which I don't really see, but never know. Who's Crump replacing in the lineup though? It's stacked.
