    I thought about this today as well, still have not received anything. I'm about to contact my credit card for review. They are on the Texas One Fund page so I imagine there's some sort of partnership there, but to date I've been really disappointed. Complete lack of communication.

    Just like softball this season, they can have the regular season, I'll take the championship.

    Started watching WWF back when it was Hulkamania, Junkyard Dog, Ricky the Dragon Steamboat, Rowdy Roddy Piper, Andre the Giant, Iron Sheik . . . have lost a lot of legends.

    Good point, but with potentially issues of sanctions, USC might be able to get away w/o a buyout. All depends on what all happened and contract details of course.

    My money would be on Riley at USC. Their boosters don't have much patience and they seem to be giving him money to get a good recruiting class.

    When Crazy Train is on and next thing you know, you look at the speedometer and you're waaaayyyy past the speed limit.

    IIRC they are one of the 3 guaranteed rivalry games every year along with OU and ATM.

    Timing really doesn't matter though, Texas could have been last and still would have garnered a majority of the attention and the scrum around Arch would probably still be the largest for the week. The Aggies could have been sandwiched between Georgia and Alabama and that would have been everyone took their lunchbreak. Except for Billy of course, he'd be there covering his beloved Aggies. They're lucky they weren't put right before or after Texas because then it would be really obvious in the contrast of coverage, which they would blame on Texas or some other conspiracy.

    I assume you're in Austin. The job market is fairly tough right now because so many companies/places have laid off recently, especially in the tech field. What you do have at your disposal, is the ability to use AI. You can start the prompt by stating: I'm in [location] and I have an [degree] degree with [x] year of experience. I'm looking for [fill in]. Upload your resume and ask it to provide a list of available job postings you can apply to. You can further utilize it to come up with interview questions, tips, etc. Clean up your resume, write a cover letter, etc. It's crazy how AI has made that process so much easier.

    Especially if that freshman comes in thinking their shite doesn't stink, I'm sure that will go over real well with team.

    IMO, Texas has one of the smartest legal teams in the nation. While the last couple of weeks have been frustrating from a recruiting standpoint. I trust that the Texas team has thought through this current landscape and has decided on a specific strategy that they felt was best, whether it’s the right strategy is to be determined, but I’m sure they didn’t get caught blind.

    A lot of people underestimate how critical the AD role is - look at what CDC has done for Texas and what other ADs have not been able to do for other schools like Texas' rivals . . .

    I definitely agree with you, to me, it's got nothing to do with race, it's got everything to do with the primary audience are men, who, as you say, are a bunch of sexist pigs. I will put myself in that boat. Look at the most popular female athletes, for the most part, in addition to being good, they are attractive. To name a few: Livvy Dunne or however she spells her name, Alex Morgan, Paige Spiranac, Maria Sharapova, Anna Kournikova, Sydney McLaughlin, Sophie Cunningham, etc. The same can be said for any other industry - Taylor Swift would not be anywhere near as popular as she is if she was fugly. Dua Lipa, Angelina Jolie, etc.

    But the ones currently on the roster will likely enter the portal, those are the players Texas would likely go after this fall, not the HS recruits.

    All these other schools blowing their wad (money) now while Sark and Texas strategize. It's a long way until signing day and while they may not get all the players they want - it's fine, they will build a competitive roster that will compete for championships. As someone who sometimes gives money to the school when it is in our budget, I appreciate them spending it wisely and not frivolously tossing dollars out at will.
  16. HookemTexas
    Not even a couple of years imo, this fall teams will find out real fast. Can the boosters keep up?
  17. HookemTexas
    It's become a business and roster management is very key, another aspect is, if you give a bunch of money to a recruit, the current players look at it and say, I think I'm worth more than that - so come portal time, they could demand more money or hit the portal. It's a very delicate process, which I'm glad I'm not responsible for.

    Though it's frustrating, if what Bobby said about Sark focusing on the roster versus high school recruits, I'm good with it. Like the great DKR said, dance with the one that brung ya.

    Saw that Georgia signed Lindemuth from Tech. They are going to be tough competition next year, they got their ace in the pitcher from UCLA (former #1 recruit) and some other key signings. SEC softball, much like baseball, is no joke. It's a friggin gauntlet just to get through the regular season.

    I wanted to see some stud pickups that were available, but it looks like Coach is picking up potential complimentary players to the star core instead of trying to replace them. It's a fine line when you have good recruits coming in. It's also the opposite of what tech is doing (they literally trying to replace current players with all americans from other teams). What Coach is doing is similar to Sark's approach to the football team, use the portal to fill gaps from recruiting, not replace the ones that decided to sign with you in the first place.

    They were pretty consistent on the answers lol

    That looks like a left handed glove’s , the webbing is where her thumb and forefinger are.

    Apparently they all like to do the horns up the McConaughey way.

    Anyone have an idea who this article is referring to? I searched Anne Wallace and this article came up and it's only about a week old. https://nextfootballnews.com/longhorns-hoping-to-copy-anne-wallace-contract-top-national-star-commit-to-texas-longhorns-softball-offers-rejected-from-byu-nebraska-auburn-oregon-tennessee-powerhouse-for-tech/

    I'm still hoping they land Lindemuth from Tech, she's a good talent at 3B.
