  1. Guys finally allowed to swing at first pitches and they can’t resist the opportunity. Hopefully second time through they find the right balance with the aggression
  2. Belyeu swings at the first pitch! Schloss said save us please haha
  3. Hope the whole team does what Galvan said and decide to “attack” the game.
  4. Gaspo must’ve really done something to have Farmer starting over him when Farmer dropped two balls last weekend against the wall. Gaspo can’t lay off a high 2 strikes fastball, and I believe he was one of the base runners who lost track of the outs. He was carrying us earlier this year. Maybe a benching can help him reset.
  5. Float an 0-2 pitch down the middle instead of putting one out of the zone. Just not smart smh
  6. The injury to Spencer sucks and hurts us in the playoff format, but man the lineup if everyone is healthy is so fun to look at: 1. Mendoza 2. Rodriguez 3. Belyeu 4. Galvan 5. Flores 6. Jonah 7. Gasparino. 8. Kimble 9. Borba/Farmer I mean.. everyone one of those guys is clutch, have power and has plate disciple. Everyone has cold stretches but that lineup is not reliant on anyone being hot to produce. We haven’t seen our best lineup yet. They can save us on Sundays if necessary
  7. CDC was already recruiting in February… That man is always 2 steps ahead! (forgot I snapped a pic of some legends at the game but now it all makes sense)
  8. Cam Williams? Not Top 75? Damn, what a fall from the 1st rd hype.
  9. Yeah, it's a very boring watch since they have no times or new info to discuss. Hopefully the staff can do a better job next year of getting the live coverage team better access. Make it a better commercial for Texas and the players.
  10. Yep, I was sick for a few days 2 weeks ago with flu like stuff, now it’s just a weird cough that won’t go away. Hoping week 3 is the final phase
  11. Nice comeback. Enjoyed being at the game near the end anyway. The fouling was definitely poorly done. Again, either no plan or bad execution. Hard to know but disappointing none the less
  12. I hope it’s just a bad game but I haven’t seen him do much this whole year. Tonight he’s driving and either forcing a shot or picking up his dribble and getting stuck. He doesn’t know where he’s outlets are going to be, and I don’t know if that’s his fault or if there is even a plan for guys to be in certain spots when he drives
  13. It just looks like a bunch of individual pieces that don’t fit together. When it’s almost all transfers year to year there is not enough chemistry to trust guys to be certain places. If it’s gonna work you need excellent coaching or incredibly complementary guys that work extremely well together. Not saying the guys aren’t trying, I just don’t see them working together on offense. It was similar last year. What do Mark and Kent do? Onyema is a foul absorber. Larry looks like he should’ve stayed at a lower level. We need Kaluma, Johnson and Pope to figure out some 3 man game with Sherdrick getting putbacks. We don’t have a distributer who can chip in. We don’t have a strong man down low.
  14. Terry deserved his shot. But it’s not working.
  15. Tre Johnson talking more to the coaches on the bench than playing the game. Didn’t finish the first half in the play, just watched. Now complaining to the coaches about why he’s getting beat on defense. I’m sure he’s frustrated, but it’s noticeable
  16. Crowd wants to get into this game but every time we are close we blow the next play. Larry the biggest culprit. Auburn has the look of some serious ball players. We have the look of guys who like(d) to play basketball.
  17. I’m at the game… Just 1 assist. So gross. A bunch of dribbling without looking to pass. Only passing once they pick up the dribble and are stuck looking for someone. Nobody is moving while the ball-handler drives, just watching. Zero plan on offense (no real surprise but annoying still). I like Terry but this is a coaching and/or roster construction issue. That’s all on him. His time has come I think
  18. Bama just fired a Co-DC… Hopefully that shakes a few guys loose to the portal as well
  19. Let’s get us one or two disappointed Georgia Bulldog DL in this week. They’ve had a weird year. Somebody’s got to want a change of scenery
  20. Texas needs to have someone bring this energy coming out at halftime. 3rd QT needs to flip to THE moment to end the game. https://imgflip.com/gif/1m5dwg
  21. Good thing Ark. St. can’t make FGs. Need Michigan to win now lol
  22. With all the talk of Texas having never scheduled a game against an FCS school, I got curious about where Texas would rank in the All-time Wins totals if teams weren't able to juice their stats with free wins against teams that are clearly sacrificial lambs... Best I could find in a short search was this article from 2020-2021... https://lwosports.com/college-football-all-time-wins-leaders/ This would show that Texas was #1 as of 2020, with OU just 4 games behind. OU has not passed us in the interim, but I think they made up 2 games (they played an FCS school in 2021). This article does however show Texas with 110 fewer wins when FCS teams are removed (813) than the official wins list often cited (923, as of 2020). So I don't know where the 110 wins go if we've never played an FCS team; maybe that stat needs to be checked out again. Either way, I've got to say, with all the chest pounding that goes on in college ball amongst fans. With all the dubious championships that get claimed by various teams.. I don't see why we cannot claim to be the actual winningest team in college football history. I'm fine with it. Make other people try to explain why a bunch of wins against a boys choir should count. Hook'em! Texas is the King of the actual mountain!
