That says a lot about the current baseball NIL. His former coach couldn’t even help get him to Texas. I get the name on the jersey is a huge selling point, but this isn’t 2005. Money has to be there for Schloss. Every now and then they have to match and overpay a need. They few they have a really good but this is a pretty big miss.

It was a good year, wasn’t a great year. Bottom 3rd of the order did nothing for this team all year. Tinney/Robbins struggled vs GA but those 2 and Pack carried this team for a lot of the year. Not going to say anything bad about those guys. Need to balance the offense and get a couple of pitchers. Not much pop will to be left coming back. Better spend money on portal or Texas will be wasting Volantis/Cozart years. They have the starters to win it all next year. They don’t have the offense right now to cover an off night. Spend, spend, spend!!

Haven’t heard anything from the face of the NFL on this. Mahomes is silent…. I think that tells you what he thinks of his school backing player gambling.

Should anyone be surprised? Billionaires run government. I can guess who funded this Judge in the past. NCAA should rule now that Tech is not eligible for post season tournament if Sorsby plays a game. Every High School football coach with integrity should ban Tech from entering their school. They can buy their way out thru courts but that doesn’t mean it’s right. Texas coaches can show Tech what they think about Joey. Get the kid help. That’s what a good coach does, but let him know his playing future is not happening at Tech

Can the NCAA just keep TT out of the playoffs. If they play Sorsby they ban them from Tournament

Thats understood, but that’s exactly what he’s in to do. He’s in to throw it by them with bases loaded under 2 outs. They’ve worked with him the entire year. He’s only needed for 2/3 outs. I think the staff knows it’s in him. If he has to dial it back to 94 fine, but his game isn’t bending spin. I’d like to see him succeed here, not a lot of 96/99 arms floating around.

Seems to be great for a batter. Then he starts to feel himself a bit after a K and loses it. It’s like clockwork lately. Quit messing with the off speed. He’s in to throw 97. Just throw 97!

That’s a Schloss loss. Has to be quick with the hook against that Ag lineup. No reason to let Leffew throw wild for 3 batters. The entire stadium and millions watching on TV saw he didn’t have it tonight after 1 batter.

Why are they willing to watch Leffew miss badly for 3 batters? Leave Rojas in and let him fight like he’s done all night! Don’t understand some of the Texas pitching decisions this year. Schloss is great, just seems to make poor decisions in crunch time situations this year.

What are these coaches watching? It hasn’t even been close for 3 batters! Just going to piss away game 1.

That’s wild! But if the ask for Cam is around $1 mil, what can we really hope to see as a replacement level? Scouting the lowest levels for depth is going to have to be at its best for Ballers on a Budget!

Time will tell. Everyone bagging on Flood needs to calm down. He didn’t forget how to coach and maybe he’s adapting to big/quick humans. Saban didn’t keep him around because Sark wanted him. Pretty much everyone who has started over the past couple years has been drafted. Don’t tell me he isn’t developing. Would have liked to have seen Kibble compete for the job but he’s gone. There are some big athletic kids in the program. Also, talent at RB is upgraded. These guys don’t need to see the Red Sea parting, crease and gone. That makes an OL look pretty good too! No extra players in the box with 3 legit WRs and TE on the field. That makes an OL look pretty good too! And another year of Arch! He makes th line look pretty good too! It’s far from a wasted season! You might look foolish when Flood develops the he’ll out of this “wasted season”!

I think Coleman is the icing on the cake for this offense. BUT this could easily turn into Michigan OL fumble. Now you are scrambling for OL help. Texas doesn’t even seem to be bringing WRs on campus until he decides. This is how kids have all the leverage. If he wants to go to Texas he already knows it. Visits are over. About to be in a dead period and time is winding down. Bring in the Top 3 WRs in the portal not named Cam, he either jumps in the boat or offer someone else that option. 1. If he wants to catch air from Reed he already knows. 2. If he wants the bag from Tech, he already knows. 3. If he wants to play for his high school coach he already knows. 4. If he wants to have all eyes on him at all times playing with Arch, he already knows. Time to keep moving!

While I believe Coleman is the prize of the portal. If he doesn’t decide over the weekend I would like to see Texas move onto the next guy (maybe Horton). Start getting these guys in before they move on. Maybe that speeds up Coleman if he really wants to play with Arch at Texas. While I don’t want to play against him, he’s not nearly as scary with Reed trying to throw downfield under pressure. He’s not as scary with a new QB in Bama. Won’t see him if it’s Lubbock. Texas has the best QB in college, speed in Wingo, go to in Moseley. There are other deep threats that will be plenty good, not Coleman good but if you miss Coleman and these others commit, you have uncertainty. Save the money and put the extra towards LB/OL/RB

@Bobby Burton@Gerry HamiltonOTF is doing a good job at covering but Texas did this to themselves. When you invite 3 OL, one not being a take, you have zero leverage. Player has all the pull! Invite top 10 OL on board and let them know you aren’t pissing around waiting. If they want on the boat they better jump. Thats how you get the leverage! Invite top 4 RBs and do the same. Texas strategy was to piss around with 2 players that didn’t even enter. Now they are up against it. They let Coleman hold them hostage at WR. Coleman isn’t coming! Why not invite the top 5 WRs on your board? Nope! Missed out on all of those too! This has to be the worst “all in” portal strategy I’ve seen. I also realize not all players will come to Texas. Thats no excuse for this staff. They limited their options early, not a surprise at the outcome.
