Just wanting to add more athleticism to the mound. Getting the idea that they “can only pitch” out of their brains. Basically to be more than a pitcher — but didn’t speak on hitting for those guys.

Schloss says Casey Borba has really changed his body and is moving around really well. ”playing first base most of the time.” At SS — Rodriguez if he is 100% from hand surgery. Becerra also getting time. 3B might be a platoon with Livingston and Temo Becerra

Schloss says Luke Harrison will most definitely be a weekend starter, everyone else will be in competition to find the rest of the rotation. Mentioned Riojas, Winter, Cozart, Grubbs, Volantis as other guys in the mix

Schloss says the draft hit Texas pretty hard late in the cycle but he expects the Horns to have plenty of options

Schloss says from a pitching standpoint, he says he doesn’t like the idea of “pitcher only” Wants to coach that out of them to add athleticism.

Schloss is here.

Dylan Volantis says he’s been messing around with a change up, and that he’s excited to throw it this year.

Volantis is up to 225 he says. Anthony Pack was mentioned as a newcomer at the plate who has been doing well. Aiden Robbins has been “outstanding” and hits the ball hard seemingly every time he’s up to the plate.

Volantis also mentioned Brett Crossland. The third player to mention him so far today.

Dylan Volantis: “I’m not a starter, or a closer, I’m a Longhorn.”

Added Casey Borba's comments today as well.

Texas Baseball Availability Nuggets *** 2B Ethan Mendoza — Ethan Mendoza says he added 15 pounds this offseason. Says he is currently up to about 200 pounds after playing around 183-185 in 2025. Mentioned his exit velocities have improved and he feels better as a whole overall even when off the field. — Mendoza says pitching depth is really noticeable this year. Sam Cozart “is throwing gas” and praise for Max Grubbs as well. Says Cody Howard “looks really good in bullpens and (intrasquad) games.” — Mendoza says the freshmen and guys out of the portal will help on the basepaths. — Mendoza speaking on the Texas culture under Jim Schlossnagle: “We are gritty… we are going to show up and try to outwork everyone, that is our goal.” OF Aiden Robbin’s — Robbins said Jim Schlossnagle called him within 30 Minutes of entering the portal. On his visit he walked into the Disch and got chills, which went a long way towards his decision. Says he considered Tennessee, LSU, Texas A&M but is glad he ended up at Texas. — ”I’m a good hitter, and can play some defense. I take pride in playing both sides of the ball.” — On pitchers standouts: Brett Crossland, Max Grubbs, Dylan Volantis, Kaleb Rogers “we are looking really good right now, I’m excited.” — Says he’s played outfield every year of his baseball life since he was about eight years old. Says he will play any of the three positions back there. — Robbins says the outfielders collectively call the outfield “The Graveyard.” Casey Borba — Borba says he played everywhere in the infield growing up, so the transition to first base has been smooth. Borba says he is doing work at both spots at the moment. At 3B, Josh Livingston and Temo Becerra are both getting time at third base as well. — Says the goal is “Omaha and to win a National Championship.” Borba mentioned this is in no way a rebuilding year for Texas. — Anthony Pack was mentioned as a player who could surprise this season by Borba. Borba also said Jason Flores has “looked good all fall.” — a few of the older guys on the team have had team outings at someone’s house to get the whole team out for team building exercises. Luke Harrison and Cody Howard were given “pit masters” credits.

Filsaime's surgery was a week+ ago. I would assume most were.

Wasn't provided by the university.

Great news on Emmett Mosley V who could not put pressure on his leg after the injury occurred in the Citrus Bowl,

Will Muschamp in Georgia last night.

Love it. Hope to see you there!

Sarkisian and Flood in Richardson to see 2027 offer Jasper Ngokwere.

Good question. Can't say I have an answer for you at this time. But will ask around.

Yes absolutely, will get that over when completed

😂 these make the thread hilarious

Fun question. My ideal class looks like: CB John Meredith III - North Crowley CB Josh Dobson - Hough (N.C.) DB Eli Johnson - Cibolo Steele DB JayQuan Snell - Waxahachie 5th option Fats Houston - North Crowley Aside from Houston, I think everyone in that room is 6’1”+ with absolute units at safety with Snell and Johnson.

Kamario Taylor is going to be such a baller for MSST next year. If he stays healthy, he took a lot of hits in not much time last fall.

I would need to see more of Meredith in person. Sanchez was the best corner prospect I have ever seen at the high school level.
