  1. 9:35 PM Update: Spoke with a couple of sources that have knowledge of the situation. Here’s what I can tell you. Texas isn’t concerned about his numbers at LSU. At all. One thing you will soon learn is that Max Weiner knows what to look for. “He knows what he wants and it’s not always conventional,” said one source. Texas sees a lot of potential here. A LOT. It also helps he throws hard as hell. This sorta comes off as a “trust me bro” update, but… trust me bro.
  2. lol. Melissa, Celina and Anna since Thursday for baseball. Sorta glad we aren’t playing again tomorrow and now we get a week off for the first time since the end of May.
  3. I’ll update this more when I get some more information on Moffett, as I’m not super familiar with his pitching. Currently driving home from Celina and I stopped at Scheel’s when this popped. I’ll update this in a bit for sure!
  4. On Saturday afternoon, the Longhorns picked up a commitment from LSU transfer Aiden Moffett. The right handed pitcher’s playing time was sparse for the Tigers, as he appeared in 16 games this past season, posting a 5.60 ERA through 17.2 innings of play and striking out 21 batters in the process. 9:35 PM Update: I spoke with Aiden 2-3 days ago and he told me there was a lot of mutual interest. I just didn’t think it would move this quickly. I also spoke with a couple of sources that have knowledge of the situation. Here’s what I can tell you. Texas isn’t concerned about his numbers at LSU.

  5. I can’t get into specifics just yet, but expect a big time announcement from Texas in the coming days as they continue to fill the staff under new HC Jim Schlossnagle. This will be an off the field role, but a major one, and one that will make Longhorn fans very happy. As soon as we are allowed to release it, we will. But I’m beyond thrilled with this hire.
  6. Not from lack of trying, I know that much. Literally can’t get a soul to talk. Texas did pick up a transfer a couple of days ago but it wasn’t Canady.
  7. FWIW, I’ll vouch for this. If Horn95 is telling you guys something in baseball, take it to the bank. His info is A+. Obviously please don’t pester him to share stuff 24/7, but when he does, just know it’s good info.
  8. Hey that’s better than getting the after product of using manscaped.
  9. On Friday evening, the Longhorns picked up their second commitment of the 2025 class under new Head Coach Jim Schlossnagle. Jack Paris, a one time Texas A&M commit out of Houston Kincaid, has decided to switch his commitment from the Aggies to the Longhorns. Paris can play first base and is a stud on the mound, although it’s currently unknown where Texas plans to use him. The 6-foot-3, 200-pound right hander had a 90 mph fastball last summer.
  10. Coffee and Football starts at 8 AM and we will be talking all about the Longhorns. Recruiting, team notes, baseball and everything else is on the table today, plus we will be taking your questions.
  11. Kinky Friedman passed away this morning at the age of 79 after a long battle with Parkinson’s disease. A University of Texas graduate, Friedman did it all and did it in a way only he could. He was an author, musician, songwriter, politician and much more. He was always super nice to me and would always have everyone around him laughing. RIP to a true one of a kind guy.
  12. Good morning! Join us for Coffee and Football beginning at 8 AM. We will take your questions and discuss the top Texas news items of the day.
  13. I just confirmed with a source that Troy Tulowitzki will NOT be joining Jim Schlossnagle’s staff as originally anticipated.
  14. “Our staff has a proven track record of doing things the right way.”
  15. “It will be an experience for sure” Schloss before he answers what he thinks it will be like to return to College Station. Lol
  16. “I just KNOW that I can trust Chris.” - Schloss on CDC
  17. Schloss says his first order of business is to contact the players.
  18. “Beginning now we have to prepare to compete in the major leagues of college baseball. If you’ve never been in SEC baseball, get ready.”
  19. “To the current and future players the program belongs to you as well.” Says Augie told him ”If you ever decide to come to Texas, this will never be your program.” He means that it will always be for the players.
  20. “To the former players, the program belongs to you, you are always welcome.”
  21. “The way you do anything is how you do everything.” I love that.
  22. Man that one has been a bit tougher to get info on.
  23. Thanks guys. I really appreciate it! I'm waiting for confirmation on a couple of things, but I'll put out a story explaining all of this and how it went down from my point of view here soon. A peek behind the curtain!
