https://riceowls.com/sports/baseball/schedule Rice published their schedule this week. No Texas, will play Notre Dame, Stanford, aggy and LSU. In spite of Pierce allegedly cancelling the traditional Stanford series, note how Stanford schedules. They hosted Rice and Tech last year (maybe a home/home), played @ OU. Played at the Round Rock Tournament in '21 and @ UTSA. Maintain their recruiting footprint. I and think others miss the Stanford series. Will be interesting to see how the demise of the PAC12 affects their program.

The NCAA is investigating the University of Michigan football program amid allegations of sign-stealing, the Big Ten announced Thursday. “U-M Athletics will offer its complete cooperation to the NCAA in this matter,” athletic director Warde Manuel said in a statement Thursday. “At the University of Michigan, all of us are committed to the highest standards of ethics and integrity for all members of our community. This is the same expectation I have of all coaches, staff, and student-athletes.” The Big Ten approached Michigan State on Wednesday, ahead of this weekend’s matchup between the rivals in East Lansing, with what the league described as “credible evidence” that the Wolverines have successfully stolen signs called by opposing teams’ coaches this season. Athletic article: The NCAA is investigating Michigan “over possible rule-breaking around in-person scouting of opponents,” according to an industry source briefed on the matter. According to NCAA Bylaw 11.6.1, off-campus, in-person scouting of future opponents (in the same season) is prohibited. Manuel spoke with conference commissioner Tony Petitti on Wednesday. According to a source with knowledge of the allegations, as of noon Thursday, Michigan had yet to be presented with evidence compiled by the conference. The Big Ten claims that Michigan, as one source with knowledge of the allegation said, is using a “vast network” to steal opposing teams’ signs. The league told Michigan State it has reviewed film that indicates UM had knowledge of what play an opposing team was going to run before the play occurs. “The Big Ten Conference considers the integrity of competition to be of utmost importance and will continue to monitor the investigation,” the league said in a statement Thursday. Upon learning of the pending investigation, Michigan State initially warned the Big Ten it might consider not playing Saturday’s game out of concern for health and safety for its players, according to two sources briefed on those conversations. On Thursday morning, MSU confirmed it will play the game. Michigan’s upcoming opponents were notified of the allegations and games are expected to take place as planned, an industry source said Thursday. Sign-stealing is not prohibited by the NCAA, unless a team intercepts in-game electronic communication. But it has a long history, with decades of accusations and allegations in college football. Prominently, in 2020, Clemson was touted as the best sign-stealing program in college football. Prior to the 2020 Sugar Bowl, Ohio State head coach Ryan Day said Clemson defensive coordinator Brent Venables “seems to always know exactly what the other team is doing.” Arizona State coach Todd Graham was accused by both Washington and Utah of signal-stealing in 2015. At halftime of a 2014 game, Kansas State coach Bill Snyder accused Auburn of sign-stealing. A year prior, Auburn was accused by Florida State of sign-stealing in the BCS championship game. The list goes on. The question facing Michigan is if these recent allegations go beyond on-field sign-stealing. Michigan is currently under NCAA investigation for a series of Level II rule violations relating to recruiting during a COVID dead period and statements to NCAA investigators. Coach Jim Harbaugh served a university-imposed three-game suspension. https://theathletic.com/4978212/2023/10/19/michigan-football-sign-stealing-michigan-state/

Recap from TexasSports. - Leighann Good had right arm in a sling. Shoulder/arm injury ? Soft type sling, maybe not serious. - Didn't realize pitching Coach Taylor was so young. Checked bio, graduated from Middle Tenn St in 2018. 2 years vol asst at UConn, 2 years as pitching coach at Lehigh. Lehigh had a 2.73 era last year, 40-14 record. AUSTIN, Texas – The month of May may be seven months away, but Wednesday night's fall softball game between Texas and Texas A&M felt like a true NCAA Regional matchup, before the two programs played to a 2-2 tie after seven full innings of action. The same way it did against the Aggies when the two teams met for a regional title during their last meeting on Sunday, May 21, 2023, Texas jumped out to an early multiple-run lead in the first inning as Viviana Martinez sparked a two-run bottom of the first with a run-scoring double to plate Bella Dayton, who led off the frame with a walk and advanced to second on a Mia Scott walk, from second. Three batters later, Martinez, herself, scored when Alyssa Washington singled down the right field line to mark the sixth first-inning run for the Longhorns over the last two meetings between Texas and Texas A&M. Over the next three innings, Texas managed to have at least one runner on base, including the bottom of the fourth after the Aggies plated their first run with a two-out double in the top half of the frame. Texas A&M scored its game-tying run in the top of the seventh, when Aiyanna Coleman connected for a solo home run to begin the frame. Texas attempted to rally with three pinch hitters — Jordyn Whitaker, Vanessa Quiroga and Baylea Brandon — in the bottom of the seventh, but the trio were unable to reach base and ended the game. In two innings of work, Teagan Kavan struck out three Aggie batters, pushing her four-game fall strikeout total to 15 in 29 batters faced. FROM HEAD COACH MIKE WHITE "Tonight was very much like a regional-type matchup with the way the crowd was hanging onto every pitch and every play. Having 871 fans here tonight for a fall game, I was very pleased with that and the support from the crowd. We came out and hit the ball really well to begin the game, and then we stopped scoring. You have to give (Texas A&M) credit for that, though, because they were making plays when they had to. Both teams played really well tonight and that's just a credit to the game of softball." FROM SOPHOMORE VIVIANA MARTINEZ "So far, I've really just been focusing on what I'm practicing on every day and taking that to the game. I'm just trying to stay within myself, really. Tonight felt so good. There was an amazing crowd, so the energy levels were high and playing against (Texas) A&M is always good competition. Tonight was just a fall ball game and I can't wait until the regular season gets here." https://texassports.com/news/2023/10/18/softball-plays-to-a-seven-inning-tie-with-texas-am.aspx

Good Luck to him ! A check reveals he entered the portal in June, signed with Ala in August, Lake Travis alum. Exhibition game vs Auburn. Alabama was 3rd in the SEC last year in ERA. He pitched 2 innings last year, control issues.

Very sorry to hear, Bear. Especially after losing your close friend a few weeks ago. T&P for you and your Family.

Good points all Burt, and also by @bschoolprof. But don't discount the fact as mentioned by bschoolprof that 3 games (Wyoming, Baylor, Kansas) we played the backup QB which could well affect overall defensive stats. Kansas QB was scratched the morning of the game. What kind of staff leader is PK ? Good resume, but ... Are the rumors true that Bo Davis wanted to leave due to disagreements ? Read it here so must be true. 😊

If not otherwise available, may want to run a Carfax or Clearvin. Slightly high mileage on the F150 (perhaps not for truck). Does the Limited have the 450HP engine ? If so, alot of engine for your need. If the Tundra meets your interior need, may be the better choice.

Read that Texas St and aggy played to a 3-3 tie, 10 innings, on Friday. Look forward to our upcoming games.

https://fansided.com/posts/steve-sarkisian-press-conference-texas-loss-oklahoma The "powers that be" have yet to post Sarkisian's postgame press conference (that I can find). Damage control ? The link above has quotes from IT's Joe Cook including the below. Note the OU, aggy and Alabama postgame press conferences have all been posted on YouTube. "In 15 minutes from now, you won't give a fuck. I've got to live with this fucking embarrassing game for the rest of my life" .... Augie Garrido

Jonathan's father passed away 2 years ago. This was on KVUE.

Thanks for posting the article. Who is the OB writer, McComas left for Five Tool, correct ? Pierce mentions there are corner infield options, but just not sure about Thomas going to CF. He fielded .994 last year. 3 errors in 505 chances, wow ! And for a freshman brought energy and leadership. But Pierce has a penchant for offense so wants a stronger power bat in the lineup. A review of Duke indicates Storm played 1B, 3B, and DH, hit .258 with 13HR, fielded .932. 6'5" switch hitter. Interesting that Max Belyeu after a great Summer did not start in the practice game.

TexasSports article. @Js1 Thanks for the updates. Did TexasSoftball twitter follow the games ? AUSTIN, Texas – On November 9, 2022, Texas softball head coach Mike White and his staff signed a six-player recruiting class that was ranked as the fourth best in the nation. 10 months later, that class saw its first action Red & Charline McCombs Field against another opponent, and they did not disappointed during the Longhorns beat St. Mary's and McLennan Community College, 15-0 and 26-1, respectively, to begin its fall slate. At the plate, the six-player class — that includes Adayah Wallace, Victoria Hunter, Katie Stewart, Kayden Henry and Ryan Brown taking trips to the plate — combined to go 14-21 (.667) with a home run, a triple, seven RBI and nine runs scored. The lone pitcher in the class — Teagan Kavan — tossed the first four innings of the Longhorns' game against McLennan and struck out 10 batters, surrendered just a single and did not issue a walk or a run. Four Longhorn pitchers — Citlaly Gutierrez, Sophia Simpson, Kavan and Mac Morgan — took the circle on the afternoon and surrendered just four hits and a single run on the 14-inning day. FROM HEAD COACH MIKE WHITE "The freshmen really stood out to me today. Coming in, you just never know how they're going to perform, and Teagan Kavan really took control of the game against McLennan and threw really well. Overall, I thought everyone played really well, even the returners. It was just a lot of fun to be to mix and match different combinations. For our pitchers today, they were just able to get ahead in the count. Coach (Pattie Ruth Taylor) is our new pitching coach and she's doing a good job with them. They're all really getting to know each other, so I'm excited to see how they're all going to do the rest of the year." UP NEXT Texas will return to the diamond at Red & Charline McCombs Field on Wednesday, Oct. 4, when the Longhorns face off against UTSA at 7:30 p.m. The matchup with the Roadrunners will be the first of two fall games broadcasted on the Longhorn Network. https://texassports.com/news/2023/9/23/softball-opens-fall-schedule-with-back-to-back-dominate-showings.aspx

Legal question regarding remediation service cost
torre replied to DixonHur's topic in Can You Help Me With This?
Wouldn't go down without a fight. Though the contract is clear about your responsibilities, if you haven't may consider contacting the insurance company to see if this is a fair charge and what options you may have. Was it necessary to hire an attorney for probate or other legal matters involving your Dad ? May want to consult with an attorney to get their opinion. -
Nice summary. Comments about Utah ? Baylor had a 13-6 lead and gave up 2 TD's in the 4th Q, winner in final minutes (20-13). Utah without starting QB but beat Florida with backup.

While online shopping. Just for info on why Carfax reports are questionable. Clearvin seems to be a more trustworthy site. Should note the car was a Rental vehicle which I understand do not report all accidents. 2023 Mazda CX-30 https://www.clearvin.com/en/payment/prepare/3mvdmbdm8pm526168/? VIN # 3MVDMBDM8PM526168
