    I'm guessing when she's not pitching she'll probably be the DP to bat but not have to play defense in the field.

    My guess at the projected starting lineup next year for softball would be: 1B - Stewart 2B - Goode SS - Martinez 3B - LF - CF - Henry RF - Maloney C - Atwood P - Kavan Potentially some stud freshman could take the open positions, but it's there for the taking for the right person in the portal. How funny would it be if Lindemuth transferred to Texas and is a major factor in Texas beating Tech in the WCWS? Let's face it, with the lineup they've put together, they should win the big 12 easily since there's no Texas or ou in their way.

    That’s because Stanford basically dominated due to the original scoring system allowing them to stack points because they have so many minor sports. CDC’s arrival was perfectly aligned with the adoption of the newer scoring system as well which has allowed Texas to compete as long as almost every sport is competitive - not an easy feat in itself.

    The way tech is spending money on transfers and tampering, if they don’t win it all next year, they will be the laughing stock of the year. All that money to be 2nd or worst just isn’t the same.

    Feel like the team deserves to be kept in the conversation after their accomplishment. Looks like Coach is bringing in a pretty talented class, one of the players just won Gatorade player of the year. Hopefully fill in the holes left by key departing seniors. Get Kavan some help while shoring up the defense and the team is well positioned to defend their title next year. Separately. sand aggy is straight up not even hiding the fact that they are going all in on spending money signing about 5 of the top portal players and having their lower ranked players pack their bags.

    Coach White is going to need to pull a few transfers imo because losing 6 seniors is no joke, especially when 1 of them is a superstar in Mia Scott. A couple of former #1 recruits in the portal right now that are available including a pitcher from UCLA.

    Do we know her skillset and what she brings?
  8. HookemTexas
    IMO Mia will be the hardest senior to replace
  9. HookemTexas
    Texas currently has the #4 recruiting class with no top 20 players. However the portal can be an equalizer if you get the right players as evidenced by Tech.

    CDC and the Texas team organized this in less than 24 hours. They must have worked all night on the logistics, that or they had plans assuming they would win it all prior to the games.
  11. HookemTexas
    Who thought this was a good idea? 🤣
  12. HookemTexas
    I’d definitely say it worked for them, national exposure, made it to the championship and had a chance to win it all, love fest for the Cinderella story. Without Canady they don’t even make a regional.
  13. HookemTexas
    They don’t waste any time do they? Lol

    Time for ou and aggy tears from Longhorn Frenzy!

    Congrats Texas softball!!! So well deserved Kavan 0 earned runs the entire World Series. Mia Scott with a torn ACL, and the rest of the team not folding even after all those errors, not letting it snowball.
  16. HookemTexas
    They called Kavan Canady smh
  17. HookemTexas
    Her normal position is 2nd, but Vivi’s injury screwed up the infield setup. Bennett is normally an outfielder.
  18. HookemTexas
    It’s ok. Walk it off.
  19. HookemTexas
    Interesting that Salmon is in the rotation ahead of Citlaly and Simpson as a freshman.
  20. HookemTexas
    I'm thinking Mac starts and Kavan comes in to close, else she goes game 3 if necessary. Late in the WCWS, White said that Kavan lost some velocity when she was tired, so it makes a difference for her to get rest.

    Not in softball, but Bo Jackson hit a double when they tried to intentionally walk him in the pros. And there the catcher was standing outside the box. Doesn’t take away from Reese though, that was clutch and some next level thinking on the spot.

    My internet was down and I don't have streaming so I had to follow using my phone on the message board. Thanks for keeping me in the loop! Even without watching it I was super nervous reading what was going on.
  23. HookemTexas
    Longhorn network did something a few years back - kind of a bracket of Texas' greatest sports stars. I think the final was between Earl and Cat.
  24. HookemTexas
    Percentages say Atwood should break out of her slump in the series. As it is, Stewart and Mitchell have picked up the slack, but if the top of the order gets going . . . (extremely difficult against Canady).
  25. HookemTexas
    That's extremely difficult, you have guys and gals before my time like James Street who not only won a national championship, he never lost a game as QB, and he's also thrown the only perfect game in UT baseball history. You'd probably need to make a Mt. Rushmore per sport and even then it would be difficult in some of the sports. Other notable names: Early Campbell (1st Heisman trophy), Cat (Gold medal, multiple PoY awards), Clarissa Davis (national champion in bball, 2x PoY), Ben Crenshaw (3x NCAA champion), Tommy Nobis (national champion), Madi Skinner (3x national champion - back to back with Texas), Julien Alfred for track & field, Tara Davis for long jump, the list goes on and on.
