    The Texas men and the Texas women will both play Louisville in the Challenge. The men will travel to Louisville on Dec. 1, while the women will host Louisville at Moody Center on Dec. 2.

    I want an SGC-graded copy of the Mattingly rookie card. I slightly prefer the Donruss, but I wouldn't mind the Topps card either.
  3. Jeff Howe
    Not for the Super Regional, at least right now.
  4. Jeff Howe
    That's it for Schloss and the Longhorns. We'll be back here at 7 p.m. tomorrow for the first game of the Austin Super Regional between Texas and Oregon.

    Mendoza has gotten into a good routine as the DH, with his shoulder injury not allowing him to play second base.
  6. Jeff Howe
    Schloss said Ethan Mendoza "had an awesome weekend." "I'm super excited about the balance of our lineup all the way through," he said.
  7. Jeff Howe
    On the bottom of the lineup, Schloss said Ashton Larson is starting to hit lefties better and Pendergrass is seeing the ball well. It's nice to have Borba's 17 home runs at the bottom of the lineup, he said.
  8. Jeff Howe
    Pitchers who didn't pitch in the regional threw in two simulated games early this week, Schloss said.
  9. Jeff Howe
    Schloss said he remembers when Texas A&M was in Omaha in 2022. He coached in a game that ended shortly before midnight and then was on a two-hour Zoom call with Paul Skenes, trying to recruit him out of the transfer portal. "I may have exaggerated a little bit," he said, regarding how long the call lasted.
  10. Jeff Howe
    "It's a challenge to stay in the mix with the best players in the country and try to get them in here," Schloss said on how the staff is handling the transfer portal and the Super Regional occurring simultaneously. "At the same time, we don't want to shortchange this team."
  11. Jeff Howe
    Volantis, as he has throughout the season, lets Max Weiner handle the scouting report (that's the case with all of the Texas pitchers). He's not focused on Oregon's lineup. Volantis said he's focused on executing his pitches and throwing strikes.
  12. Jeff Howe
    Schloss hasn't lost a Super Regional since 2012, when TCU lost on the road to UCLA. Schloss said that has nothing to do with him, but with the great players he's coached because, ultimately, they have to perform and execute.
  13. Jeff Howe
    "Sitting around all day waiting to play is a challenge," Schloss said. Still, he loves the opportunity that Texas has to play a night game in the Super Regional.
  14. Jeff Howe
    Schloss said Texas has a lot of respect for Oregon's pitching staff, but competing in the SEC allowed the Longhorns to see a lot of high-quality pitching. Schloss made it clear that he respect Oregon, calling them an SEC-style team because of the athleticism, speed and pitching they bring to the table. "They look like an SEC team, but they'll play whatever brand of baseball they need to to win the game," he said.
  15. Jeff Howe
    "In a perfect world," Schloss wants Ruger Riojas to start. However, as @Blake Munroe reported, other than Dylan Volantis starting tomorrow's game, Texas isn't announcing anything else regarding starting pitching this weekend.
  16. Jeff Howe
    Volantis said he went to an Oregon baseball camp and never went back. Pack went on a recruiting visit for a football game and said he liked the Oregon coaching staff but preferred Texas.
  17. Jeff Howe
    Dylan Volantis and Anthony Pack both said they know members of the softball team and they were happy to see them celebrate last night's win over Texas Tech.
  18. Jeff Howe
    Schloss opens his press conference by congratulating Mike White and the softball program for winning the national championship.
  19. Jeff Howe
    We're waiting on Schloss, Dylan Volantis and Anthony Pack Jr.
  20. Jeff Howe
    Probably Mississippi State, of the teams I've seen.
  21. Jeff Howe
    Oregon, which didn't have a baseball program from 1982 until 2009, hasn't been to the College World Series since 1954. Texas, meanwhile, can add to its NCAA-record 38 CWS appearances if the Longhorns win the Super Regional.
  22. Jeff Howe
    On competing in the Big Ten, Wasikowski felt UCLA, USC and Nebraska were all legit teams; the Bruins had a bad weekend last weekend and they're out, he said.
  23. Jeff Howe
    Wasikowski on Volantis: "We're going to really need to be at our best to try and break him down."
  24. Jeff Howe
    Wasikowski on recruiting Dylan Volantis: "I think he said no to us pretty quickly. We would've loved to have been in the mix for him."
  25. Jeff Howe
    Oregon pitcher Cal Scolari said that Texas having multiple 20-home-run guys in its lineup stands out. Heading into the Austin Super Regional. Aiden Robbins leads the Longhorns with 23, Carson Tinney has 21 and Casey Borba is close to the 20-home run mark with 17.
