That's a lot better than this swing https://x.com/AUSL_Volts/status/2074305849485385862/video/1

That was fun to watch
-
Coffee and Football hit again. Spain won, Ronaldo didn’t do a damn thing, but sure - let’s tip the cap to Grandpa for showing up and not falling over

That's great news...Thks Hank This was really Weird The strangest part isn’t even that Balogun’s playing - it’s that FIFA basically admitted their own rules are optional if they feel like it. For two days every official line was, “Red‑card suspensions cannot be appealed.” Full stop. Then suddenly Article 27 gets pulled out of the attic like some forgotten cheat code and poof, the ban is suspended. So yeah, the takeaway isn’t “Balogun is available.” It’s “FIFA has a magic button they pretend doesn’t exist until they need it. This is all starting to feel like the NCAA all over again 😀 -
If you haven’t seen these yet, Brad Kellner has dropped a couple of really good Longhorns softball interviews: Maddi Doty interview Stevie South interview Both are worth a watch - good questions, good pace, and you actually get real insight instead of the usual canned stuff

Big Messi fan here...rooting for Argentina over all teams - except the USA

Absolutely agree @taxsaver. The Flood haters are gonna have to find a new hobby for a while, because like you said the man just stacked Turntine, Camara, and Swanson like it’s nothing. That’s two high‑end tackles plus a freak already on campus - exactly the kind of pipeline people kept insisting he “couldn’t” build. Funny how quiet it gets when the receipts don’t match the narrative. Texas finally has real OL depth, real tackle talent, and a staff that actually develops it. Flood’s been doing the work the whole time - folks are just now catching up. Also agree with others saying this was a great write-up @Jeff Howe

If you think Gerry would win that, think again. If there is a corn dog eating contest, Gerry’s not winning - he’s just posting a HI halfway through it. Chestnut would finish the plate before Gerry even gets the mustard open. He’d just tweet ‘👀’ while Chestnut is already on corn dog #47.

Good point....Kevan and Katie will absolutely thrive in AUSL, no question. But the league isn’t built to match what top players can pull in NIL right now. College is where the real money window is, so most of these elite kids are smart to ride out all five years, stack NIL, then jump to AUSL when it’s about career and exposure instead of the paycheck

Good Luck Estelle https://t.co/JUwjHzMyMg

Happy 4th, boys/girls Hope your grills are hot, your beers are cold, and your takes are at least slightly less embarrassing than usual today. God bless America and God bless the Longhorns.

Don't know if permissable to post this(Horns247 Flagship Podcast) here...if not delete it. But great interview with Mike White. Here's the article as well as the video. https://247sports.com/college/texas/longformarticle/two-time-defending-national-champion-texas-softball-coach-mike-white-joins-the-horns247-flagship-podcast-288071437/#2838589 The idea of the opportunity to get two more seasons from star seniors Katie Stewart, the 2026 SEC Player of the Year; Teagan, center fielder Kayden Henry; infielder Viviana Martinez; as well as Arizona State senior catcher transfer Samantha Swan and Florida State senior infielder transfer Isa Torres caught my eye.

Studdard was out there treating defensive tackles like they personally insulted his mother. 😀
-
Didn't Blake Brockermeyer wear #64 early in his career?
-
lol, Studdard. Obviously. The guy played guard like he was trying to get flagged for targeting. Hampton was a perfectly respectable “he exists” roster entry, but Studdard was out there committing weekly felonies in broad daylight and getting praised for it on ESPN
-
good match? NOT
-
LOL, me too
-
Cause we are not Mexico, lol If water bottles overturned red cards, Mexico would be undefeated since 1994

Need to find a replacement for Pepi - USA gets the win, but we’ve got to stop pretending Pepi is the answer at striker. He’s a “right place, right time” guy who vanishes the second the match gets physical or requires someone to actually create something. He's not fooling anybody at the international level.

Mark this date/time on your Calendar Texas showing out at the Alliance All‑Star Game again. Three Horns on the roster, Kayden Henry running the American squad, Ella McDowell leading the National team… that’s not an All‑Star Game, that’s a burnt‑orange takeover. The Henry/Abdullah/Doty segment in the reveal show was outstanding. Kayden’s personality jumps off the screen, Abdullah carries herself like she’s already in the middle of the Texas lineup, and Doty looks media‑ready from day one. Softball America hyping our girls is just bonus points. Aubrey Portie wasn’t a Texas volleyball commit. She played volleyball earlier in her athletic path, but she’s a Texas softball commit, period. Still impressive as hell that she switched her focus, climbed fast, and earned an Alliance All‑Star spot. July 19. ESPN+. 6 p.m. ET. Texas fans might as well treat it like a spring game - half the broadcast is basically ours.

This was a red card?????
-
thks...just got home....need to turn the game on....who scored our goal?
-
what the score here?
-
oops.....wtf 😀 Lmao yeah that one’s on me - apparently my brain decided to run an RPO and kept the football tab open while the thread was clearly in softball mode. Been hydrating aggressively all day… just not with water.

I’ve really come around on softball too ---the pace and the constant pressure make it easy to stay locked in. The way the roster sticks together for years also makes it a lot easier to follow the team and actually feel connected to the players. Baseball just doesn’t hit the same for me. The games drag, the rhythm is slower, and it’s harder to stay engaged inning to inning. I still support the team, but the product doesn’t grab me the way softball does. The energy, the urgency, the way one mistake can flip everything - that’s what keeps me hooked.
