  1. Coffee and Football starts at 8:10ish this morning and we hope you join us. We’ll be discussing the latest Horns news, including Junior Day and the surprise visitor, along with taking your questions. See you there!
  2. It’s also worth mentioning he hasn’t even played football for four years yet. Soccer until the fall of 2021.
  3. Stats are posted in original post at the bottom 😉
  4. Sources have told OTF that Ohio State defensive lineman Hero Kanu took an unexpected visit to campus over the weekend. He arrived in Austin on Saturday evening and remained on campus through Sunday. He recently entered the portal and will have two years of eligibility remaining. A highly coveted four-star recruit out of Santa Margarita Catholic High School (Rancho Santa Margarita, Calif.), Kanu originally chose the Buckeyes over the likes of Georgia, Alabama, OU, Notre Dame and more. The 6-foot-5, 305-pounder posted 14 tackles and a sack over his last two seasons in Columbus. He is originally from Germany, where he was a standout soccer player, but moved to the U.S. in 2020.
  5. I’m built different (My wife rolls her eyes every time I tell her that.) It takes a lot for me to get sick (except food poisoning. Thanks a lot dominoes).
  6. Yes. I edited it. You’re quick. lol

  15. @CJ Vogel, @Jeff Howe and I sat down for a 30-minute discussion on what to expect from this year’s Texas team…. Is Adrian Rodriguez a superstar in the making? Plus, what were the main takeaways from today’s media availability? And we hooked y’all up with some insider news and notes. All that and more in the video below!
  16. On February 14th, the Longhorns will take the field at Globe Life in Arlington for the first time under new Texas Head Coach Jim Schlossnagle. With just 21 days away from that first pitch, I spoke to a couple of sources to see where things stand. Pitching: Two players in particular have carved out starting roles on the mound. LHP Jared Spencer (Indiana State) looks to be your Friday starter, while LHP Luke Harrison will take the Saturday slot. Spencer has been particularly impressive from what I've been told, with multiple people raving about his abilities. As for Harrison, it sounds like pitching coach Max Weiner has helped him come on really strong (get ready for one heck of a breaking ball). Sunday and the weekday starter(s) are still up in the air at this time. As for Ruger Riojas, I'm told that he's the best all around pitcher on the staff. Look for him to have a very similar role to what Evan Aschenbeck had for Texas A&M last season. He's hands down the best reliever, but may not be seen as a closer. True freshmen Drew Rerick, Jason Flores and Dylan Volantis should all see playing time on the mound this season as well. Fan favorite Ace Whitehead is still battling back from surgery recovery and there is no timetable for his return. Projected Lineup: Catcher - Ryan Galvan 1B - Kimble Schuessler 2B - Ethan Mendoza 3B - Adrian Rodriguez SS - Jalin Flores LF - Easton Winfield CF - Will Gasparino RF - Max Belyeu It wasn't long ago that we weren't sure who will take the starting roles at 1B, 3B and CF, but I've been told that Schuessler, Rodriguez and Gasparino have came on strong. As for Rodriguez, it sounds like he's the best freshman position player out of the bunch at this point. The staff loves that he's a switch hitter and have full faith in him, despite being new on campus. Jonah Williams: In case you missed my update on Williams from yesterday... One source close to the baseball program told me that there is no definitive timetable for Williams return. “I’m not sure. Hoping to be cleared for some stuff and we’ll go from there,” said the source. Williams is doing certain work outs trying to balance being in both baseball and football shape at the same time. He also works with both the football and baseball staff at different parts of the day. As for where he’ll end up on the diamond, I’ve been told that will all work itself out as he continues to get healthier. On the mound or in the outfield are the two options, but the quicker path to earlier playing time will be pitching… for now.
  17. Recording with CJ today, btw.
