Or, Sure No

I suggest from now on we call it No Shore

Not in football, and ACC travel should be a deal breaker. Mike Cronin is still recovering from his jetlag! Hopefully someone hits home Dell Medical vs a legacy med school. P.s. THI right now in Austin:92, Ann Arbor 91, The Bubble 72. But take a peek Nov-Feb!

Thanks! All kinds of intrigue here - can UH fend off competition - will Aggies (and their bragging rights obsessed fans) live it down if Casuga doesn't outperform a Houston product? Even if he is the right fit on the field, can they stomach Dia and Keisean on the '27 Dave Campbell cover? - on the other hand, kudos to A&M for attracting a product of a QB factory and sticking with him, if he pans out!

Is Henderson expected to stick with Houston? Aggies aren't going to break the bank?

Quite a bit of variation in the evals!

Chances of a portal rb option developing by spring 27 are decent compared to the chances one of the 5 stars is a bust or blows out an ankle or knee. Sucks but put the money where it is needed most.

For Directors Cup, Title IX, softball fans etc - maybe. If Tech doesn't win, or, if the next $1M player is a clubhouse problem, that will be a fun conversation. And I think a player like Cat is worthy of an all sports Mt Rushmore conversation (with more than 5 heads) As for a pure economic value, or fan eyeball perspective, the $1M might help softball fundraising, but probably still has a much bigger multiplier in other sports, even outside of the QB. I'd love to see someone pencil that out.

I don't know all of Tulo's responsibilities but we hit for power and field well https://www.ncaa.com/stats/baseball/d1/current/team/323 https://www.ncaa.com/stats/baseball/d1/current/team/212 On the other hand, we're #150 in obp https://www.ncaa.com/stats/baseball/d1/current/team/589/p3 And dead last on sac bunts https://www.ncaa.com/stats/baseball/d1/current/team/498/p6 The latter may be a Schloss style and I'm ok with it, but, when you don't get enough baserunners and then strand the ones you get waiting for a bomb, it's worth a discussion. Because the ultimate result is that we're also outside the top 100 in scoring https://www.ncaa.com/stats/baseball/d1/current/team/213/p3 And Pythagoras will tell you what that means. Although I'd pin the regional exit on pitching, the arm farm carried the season with the spotty hitting showcasing itself in the jekyll and hyde Sunday double header.

After baseball I don't want to be too overconfident but I like our chances vs Tech; on the other hand until proven otherwise hard to take 2 from the "home team"

I love the loser bracket crossover. Hopefully 0u gets eliminated by Tech. That woukd be a favorable championship series matchup.

Another in a long line of Riley TEs. Oh, wait?!?! I'm surprised we haven't made better inroads at mater dei.

Here's Tenn coach's explanation https://www.knoxnews.com/story/sports/college/university-of-tennessee/other-sports/2025/05/29/tennessee-oklahoma-softball-ella-parker-walkoff-home-run-karlyn-pickens/83930050007/ In other words, she thought the risk of Parker standing at 1B was greater than standing at home with a big hot bat in her hands.

Tennessee choked... we gotta do it the old fashioned way

Question answered - a challenging opener.

Is this our Omaha pairing if/when we advance? I don't think they reseed...

Bigger question than 1 vs 2 - which super match do we prefer and by geography who is the upset candidate in that regional. Earlier brackets had Tennessee and A&M matched up with us - yuck! Out of this lot, GT and Ole Miss might be the toughest outs.

On the bright side if someone else can put a loss on 0U, I like our chances. And we can handle the other side of the bracket in a championship.

Aggies screwed us by making OU a 2 seed. But it might have been worth it just for the Liberty treatment! Or we screwed ourselves by not being a 1 seed?!

Not to mention 9 of their 11 2026 commits are from out of state. Nothing wrong with national recruiting but if you are having to find people far enough away from the toxic mess to listen to your pitch, maybe dial back on the wildin' claims! That room KNOWS!!!!

This is their problem in a nutshell. Everyone not in a maroon shirt in the room will laugh at that including TCU, SMU, and Tech loyalists at the moment. No self awareness just delusions of grandeur. He could have said they want to be the most welcoming staff in state, or some bs about being the biggest school numbers wise, or whatever they could actually back up - but no! Did Jimbo leave him the postdated championship trophy to show off too?!

We're overachiebing because of pitching, and without Spencer, and with a Ruger cold spell, the bats might not quite be there yet in the Schloss rebuild. Yet tops of the SEC, heck yah. The floor and ceiling are higher than expected but whatever happens, it's a successful season.

More longhorn golfers should show out.

On a side note, we've only had 2 sac bunts all season?!
