Honestly it just sits in a closet and I’d rather it go to someone who can enjoy it. I have enough sports memorabilia to open a small museum (seriously) and it just sits in a closet gathering dust. I’d rather it go to someone who would enjoy it and who actively pursues the hobby. Theres some stuff I will hang onto and not sell that I really love and will be the new backdrop for my C&F background eventually… but it’s time for someone else to take this stuff. And it will make my wife happy too 😉

Also, if you're into high end baseball memorabilia, get at me. I have some pretty rare items. 500 club, game used bats, signed balls, etc. I have a lot more Texas stuff too, this is just the first batch.

Pics posted. First come, first serve.

Sorry for the delay..... I'm going to post these as position groups. I'm open to offers, as long as they're reasonable. I will discount if you buy multiple. Does not include shipping. This was a pain in the rear and there's a chance I mislabeled or mispriced something, so if you are questioning something, just ask. If you want a close up look of the cards, just ask. First come, first serve.

I’m about to sell nearly all of my sports memorabilia, which includes anything from high end baseball collectibles to Texas cards. I’m currently in the process of taking pictures of it all, but I have more than I know what to do with. I’m going to start posting in this thread everything I have (Texas related) which includes loads of football, baseball and basketball. If you’re looking for certain players, let me know. I probably have multiple of a lot of your favorite players. Here’s an extremely, extremely small sample size. I have some good stuff that needs to go to someone who will appreciate it. The Ewers and Sanders autos are /10. Worthy orange refractor is a /25 (with a PSA 9, auto 10 grade). Roschon is /25. That Ehlinger card is one of my favorites since it clearly has the Texas away jersey in it. It’s a /49. VY is a /99. I hate to part with the Ricky/Earl dual auto, but again, this needs to go somewhere that someone will really appreciate it not just sitting in a closet. I’ll be posting pictures in groups most likely. Too many to do one by one.

Good q. I will look into that.

No. He's still on active roster.

100%. This alone makes me believe Texas wins this weekend lol

It was supposed to be all victories and Vuori commercials by now for Steve Sarkisian and Arch Manning. Actually, Manning, if the scouts were to be believed, was never expected to see his fourth season at Texas. He was supposed to be a rookie sensation in the NFL by now. Instead he's dealing with speculation about sharing playing time with a redshirt freshman or possibly transferring at season's end. Manning's career is beginning to resemble that of Quinn Ewers, the Longhorns' previous No. 1 overall recruit who, while certainly a good player, never reached the expectations surrounding him. Sarkisian, meanwhile, after consecutive losses to unranked teams, is facing renewed pressure on everything -- his playcalling, his roster decisions, his program and maybe his own future. All of this just as an Ole Miss team that is the Longhorns' polar opposite -- led by a once-unheralded Division II transfer at quarterback -- arrives in already restless Austin. The questions are everywhere. Can Manning be more than just a good, but inconsistent, quarterback with a famous name? Is Sarkisian really some offensive genius, or is he mostly the beneficiary of a series of extraordinary opportunities -- calling plays as an assistant during the dynasty days of USC and Alabama that led to head coaching chances at Washington, USC and now UT? And, finally, why can't Texas be more than just a program of endless hype and money? Despite all its resources, especially in these free-spending days, it has captured just a single national title since 1970. The aforementioned promise of coach and program is a big reason Manning chose Texas over the established championship pedigrees of Alabama's Nick Saban and Georgia's Kirby Smart. It was supposed to be a partnership for the future -- a touted talent and a supposed offensive savant of a coach together in a booming city of a hot state, just as the sport transitioned to a big-money era. How could this go wrong? Everything is bigger in Texas, including the disappointment. Just weeks ago, Texas was ranked No. 1 after victories over Ohio State and Tennessee. But even at its peak, the offense didn't look like a juggernaut. The consecutive losses to Oklahoma and Florida haven't created the questions so much as made them impossible to ignore. Manning is not a bust, but he has thrown for just 11 touchdowns this season, against five interceptions, 17 sacks and a fumble. His 215.8 yards passing per game doesn't rank him in the top 10 ... of the SEC, let alone country. ESPN's Pete Thamel reported Monday that back-up KJ Lacey would get more first-team reps in practice this week. No one would be surprised if Lacey saw the field against Ole Miss. This wasn't the plan. "I told [Sarkisian] I expect myself to play better," Manning said. "I need to see a better version of Arch Manning," Sark added. In turn, Manning (as well as the rest of the team) needs to see a better version of Sarkisian. It's not like the Longhorns can run the ball either -- their 3.64 yards per carry rank 13th in the SEC. So how much of Texas' offensive collapse belongs to the quarterback, and how much belongs to the coach who recruited him, developed him and designed the system around him? "The player is in there, and it's our job to try to get it out of him," Sarkisian said. Given his time with the program and that amount of complementary talent around him, including offseason transfers such as wide receiver Cam Coleman, should the coach still be treating this as a developmental project? "Well, I think that's our job as coaches, and that's part for Arch, the player, right?" Sarkisian said. "There's two parts to this. Right?" To Manning's credit, he isn't shying away from any of it. When you have his last name and you play at this level of a program, there is no hiding from the spotlight. "I haven't put good film on tape for the last five weeks, and I'm going to be better," Manning said. "I'm going to be better for my teammates. I'm going to be better for myself and I'm going to be better for my coaches." How does he get on track? "Just [start] letting it rip," Manning said. "Our backs are against the wall right now, and there's no place I'd rather be. Just let her rip. I'm going to die on the hill of, I'm letting it rip." This was supposed to be a surgical marriage -- potential coached by potential, talent surrounded by talent, Texas finally being Texas. Now it's down to "let it rip" against the Rebels. https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/50240573/arch-manning-steve-sarkisian-texas-pressure

I told Bobby last night there's no way Vegas takes that big of a loss.

I was literally about to post your first point. Homecoming is for the birds. Somehow I managed to attend three games so far this season that have all been homecoming. 🤦‍♂️

The UIL Legislative Council announced several major changes Monday that will impact Texas high school athletics over the next several years. From the long-awaited addition of a shot clock in basketball to changes in playoff formats and the introduction of girls flag football, there’s quite a bit to unpack. Here’s a breakdown of what’s coming: BASKETBALL SHOT CLOCK This one has been debated for years, but it’s finally happening. The UIL approved a 35-second shot clock for boys and girls varsity basketball. However, the implementation will be phased in over several years. 2028-29: Class 5A and 6A 2030-31: Class 3A and 4A 2032-33: Class 1A and 2A Schools will have opportunities to experiment with shot clocks before they’re required. This is a pretty significant change, especially for programs that have traditionally relied on slowing games down and controlling possessions. GIRLS FLAG FOOTBALL Another big one. The UIL approved moving forward with a girls flag football pilot program, potentially beginning with the 2028-29 school year. The initial program would include no more than two classifications, with state championships planned for each. There are still plenty of details to work out, including scheduling, classifications and playoff formats. More information is expected in June 2027. With the Cowboys and Texans already heavily involved in growing the sport across the state, this feels like something that could take off pretty quickly. MORE HOME PLAYOFF GAMES This is one I really like, especially for smaller communities across Texas. Beginning with the 2027-28 school year, the UIL plans to expand first-round playoff home-site advantages across multiple sports. That includes: Football: Expanding to Class 4A and below Basketball: First-round home-court advantage Volleyball: First-round home-court advantage Soccer: First-round home-field advantage Team Tennis: First-round home-site advantage In football, 5A and 6A already have first-round home-field advantages based on district finish. Now smaller classifications will get that opportunity as well. For communities where Friday night football is everything, getting to host a playoff game rather than traveling to a neutral site is a pretty big deal. TEAM TENNIS EXPANSION Beginning in 2027-28, Class 1A and 2A schools will be eligible to compete in team tennis. That means all six UIL classifications will have the opportunity to participate. GIRLS CROSS COUNTRY Beginning with the 2028-29 school year, Class 4A girls cross country will move from a two-mile race to a 5K. That’s a pretty substantial increase in distance. SOME FINAL THOUGHTS There are some pretty significant changes here. The basketball shot clock is probably the biggest from a competitive standpoint. It’s going to change how games are coached, particularly late in the fourth quarter. The expanded playoff home-site advantages could be huge for smaller communities, both from an atmosphere and financial standpoint. And I’m interested to see how quickly girls flag football grows once the UIL gets everything in place. One important note: These changes were approved by the UIL Legislative Council but still require final approval from the Texas Commissioner of Education.

Yikes. That’s a rough one.
