  1. I’m all for holding Notre Dame accountable - they’ve gamed the system for decades. But canceling great home games at DKR shouldn’t be Texas’ leverage tool. Fans shouldn’t lose Michigan/Notre Dame just to make a point. Fix the CFP criteria so Texas can schedule like Texas, and ND can deal with the consequences of staying independent on their own time I keep arguing, but i still want to watch good football games going forward 😉
  2. I get the idea, but Texas shouldn’t have to blow up great home games just to shame the CFP into competence. Fans shouldn’t be punished because the committee can’t tell the difference between Rice and Michigan. Fix the system - don’t neuter the brand
  3. Serious question for y’all - in today’s NIL world, what kind of money do you think Texas legend Steve McMichael would’ve pulled down? With his game, his personality, and that larger‑than‑life presence, would Mongo have been a seven‑figure NIL guy?
  4. I get the logic, but that’s exactly the problem -Texas shouldn’t have to choose between great home games and the playoff. We’re Texas. We can walk and chew gum. I’ll take Ohio State in the winter and Michigan/Notre Dame in September. If the CFP punishes teams for scheduling real opponents, then the CFP is broken. Fans shouldn’t have to sit through Rice/UTSA/Wyoming just because the committee can’t evaluate strength of schedule. Fix the system so Texas can keep scheduling like Texas.
  5. I hear CDC, but I’m sorry - Texas shouldn’t dumb down the schedule because the CFP can’t get its act together. Fans want Michigan, Ohio State, Notre Dame in Austin, not another round of Rice/UTSA/Wyoming. If the committee punishes teams for playing real games, then the committee is the problem. Texas shouldn’t shrink its brand because the system is confused. Fix the freaking system, and make it happen - keep scheduling like Texas.
  6. Getting close to Nervous time. Karlyn Pickens vs Teagan Kavan sounds like a low-scoring game to me.
  7. If Cristobal is ahead of Sark, then we’re grading vibes, not coaching. Sark’s the only one in that group who’s proven he can build and sustain a playoff‑level program. Lanning’s good, but he’s still in the ‘almost’ tier. DeBoer at Bama is a guess. Sark’s the resume.
  8. Texas weather is in full Sark play‑calling mode - you think you know what’s coming, then nope.... If this weather keeps up, I’m issuing a Gerry Hamilton HI for my roof.
  9. President Schovanec, your letter does one thing with absolute clarity: it proves the NCAA was right. You describe a quarterback who needs clinical care, digital monitoring, blocked gambling access, and financial supervision - and then you frame his ineligibility as some kind of injustice. You didn’t argue against the ruling. You validated it.
  10. How about this Lefty pitcher? Think she would compliment Teagan....we do need a lefty. https://d1softball.com/madison-azua-entering-transfer-portal/
  11. Farah needs some birdies, not pars
  12. The NCAA already said the 5‑for‑5 model won’t apply retroactively, so any Texas seniors finishing in Spring 2026 aren’t getting an extra year. It only affects athletes who still have eligibility after the rule goes into effect.
  13. This portal season is going to be wild. The roster is at 25. If White wants transfers, someone’s leaving. Nobody’s walking out on their own, so the exits will come from non‑renewals or blunt meetings where players are told they have no future playing time. Softball scholarships are one‑year deals, not four‑year promises. He can decline to renew, reduce the amount, or keep a player on the roster with no aid. That’s standard roster management across every major conference. There are some pretty good players that have announced their intentions of entering the portal. Pretty sure White would like to add some of these to his roster next year.
  14. Didn't see that game, but will agree with you that softball needs to fix that pitcher re-entry rule because what Tech had to be doing isn’t “strategy,” it’s a cover‑up. When you’re swapping the same two pitchers five times(like you said), you’re not managing a game. All you’re doing is hiding the fact that neither one can actually get through a lineup. This isn’t clever coaching. It’s a loophole being milked by a staff that clearly doesn’t trust its own arms. The constant re‑entering doesn’t disrupt hitters - it just exposes how thin their pitching really is. If your best competitive edge is gaming the rulebook, that tells the whole story.
  15. Tied with Catherine Park who had an awesome 3rd round
  16. Mike took one look at Coach O and thought, ‘Finally, someone who growls worse than I do'
  17. Totally agree...OU’s ‘dynasty’ exists because Texas hasn’t bothered to enter the sport. And in a state where gymnastics is already huge? UT would snap up the talent overnight and the okies lose their last talking point
  18. texas linebackers don’t run from expectations. Hill saw #53 belonged to a Titans legend and said, "Yeah, I’ll take that smoke."
  19. Who pitching for both teams? (or) did i miss this?
  20. Short of breath and coughing up blood day before death. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/kyle-busch-death-coughing-up-blood-training-911-audio-nascar-legend-rcna346534
