  1. Good points ! Other than talent, should S&C be questioned for the OL ? Read that Becton has different philosophy/techniques ?
  2. Obvious he can't handle both punting and field goals - mentally.
  3. Fall Practice has started, don't know when. As mentioned above, apparently there is a Fall schedule. May want to follow twitter for updates. Support staff needs to improve communication to the fan base. https://twitter.com/TexasBaseball?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^author Melendez working out at 1B.
  4. https://www.perfectgame.org/Players/Playerprofile.aspx?ID=631461 Chase Sowell is an excellent baseball player - plays the amateur elite level in Summer circuit. Not sure how he is being recruited for baseball, MLB draft projections behind paywall, doubt if he is high at this point. Add some weight, reminiscent of Ken Griffey. Jr. from the right side.
  5. Special teams - punt return team, not sure about others.
  6. Michigan defeated Ohio 9-1 in the Great Lakes Regional. Ohio made the LLWS as runnerup. Should be a great game.
  7. Not exactly sure, will check. Thanks for the info !
  8. Upshur County - low producing. Awhile back, I dm'd you about the future of that area. Thanks again for your replies.
  9. Did you all see this article ? Any merit ? My interest is being royalty owner. (excerpts) Oil prices could be setting up for a major rally, one strategist says. Though the energy sector has cooled off in recent months, U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude’s price chart just flashed a rare signal, Miller Tabak’s Matt Maley told CNBC’s “Trading Nation” on Wednesday. “Crude oil has seen what’s called a golden cross on its weekly chart,” the firm’s chief market strategist said. A golden cross occurs when an asset’s shorter-term moving average crosses above its longer-term moving average and is broadly seen as a signal of further upside. In oil’s case, “that’s only happened three times since the beginning of this century and each of those three times has been followed by a very strong further rally in crude oil, anywhere from 20%-50%,” Maley said. “If oil continues to rally here, energy stocks should continue to bounce as well and I think that’s a group where I think people can do really well for the last third of the year.” Investors should consider adding some downside protection to their portfolios as the market enters the seasonally difficult September-December trading period, BK Asset Management’s Boris Schlossberg said in the same interview. “I’d call this the Terminator market. It’s always coming back. It refuses to die,” Schlossberg said. “But ... I think there is certainly some potential for danger here.” With bond yields creeping up as inflationary pressures persist, the odds of a correction in high-valuation stocks are also rising, said Schlossberg, his firm’s managing director of FX strategy. “I think the single best bet here for downside protection is to simply buy the 380-360 QQQ put spread because that’ll give you protection to the downside on Nasdaq, which is the most volatile of the indices,” he said. That represents a bet that Invesco’s QQQ ETF, which tracks the Nasdaq, will stay below $380 a share through the trade’s November expiry. For the trade to generate its maximum profit, QQQ would have to fall below $360 a share. QQQ was trading around $373 midday Thursday. “If it works, it’s going to give you a very decent protection, at least about 5% to the downside,” Schlossberg said. “The higher those bond yields creep up, the more likely the Nasdaq is going to correct because the Nasdaq is basically operating on the assumption of free money,” he said. “The moment that money becomes even a tiny bit more expensive, valuations are going to start to contract. So, to me, that’s probably the single biggest catalyst to the downside as we go into the fall season.” https://www.cnbc.com/2021/08/26/oil-has-only-done-this-twice-in-20-years-it-could-mean-a-50-percent-rally.html

  12. Thought you zoomed in, but see it was a tweet.
  13. - Do you have an account setup ? May be the reason. Or offer is not avail in your area. And mine may have been because I had 4 orders in 30 days, not sure if same offer. But that is not the same ad that was on my screen/acct. - If you did not, click rewards logo at bottom of screen. - I no longer have the offer of the free Whataburger on my screen/acct because it was used. But yes, it was free Whataburger, Spicy Chicken, PicodeGallo until 8/31 with no additional purchase.
  14. Likely already mentioned, but recommend to download the Whataburger app for orders. You can go thru drive thru, go in, or curbside. Many specials and rewards. Current special is a free Whataburger, Spicy Chicken, or Pico De Gallo burger until 8/31. No additional purchase necessary.
  15. Reading her twitter, seems to have alot of energy. Hope she can improve the defense. Longhorns volunteer assistant Courtney Gettins recently accepted a full-time role at Mercer; sources confirmed that the volunteer position is the role that Parnell will fill on the Texas staff. A former assistant coach at Division III Hardin-Simmons, Parnell most recently spent time in the private coaching and travel ball spaces, including coaching with the Texas Blaze organization. In addition to her two seasons as a graduate assistant at Hardin-Simmons, Parnell also spent one year as an assistant coach at Kilgore College. https://justinsworldsb.com/nicole-parnell-joining-texas-coaching-staff/
  16. Play Nebraska Wed, 2PM. Need you back @ztejas you're good luck.
  17. Abilene loses to Michigan 6-5 in a 2 hour plus *rain delayed game which affected both pitching staffs. Abilene had 5-0 lead but a grand slam got Michigan back in the game. Abilene plays Jersey, Tuesday at 2PM. Hawaii looks like favorite on this side of bracket, vs Michigan on Wed. (* heavy rain occurred in first inning. game should not have started.) https://www.littleleague.org/world-series/2021/llbws/bracket/
  18. Respectfully, recommend you DM @TwiceHorn a copy of the contract you signed (refund portion) or post here if you find appropriate.
  19. For the Tech fans. Excerpts: ROUND ROCK — The Round Rock Express were handed their first premium prospect of the season Friday when the Texas Rangers promoted third baseman Josh Jung, a former All-American at Texas Tech. Jung, the eighth overall pick of the 2019 Major League Baseball draft, is the Rangers' No. 1 hitting prospect and No. 2 overall, behind pitcher Jack Leiter, the club's top selection in June. Jung, 23, got a late start to the season after breaking his left foot in spring training. Once he recovered and was assigned to Double-A Frisco, he never stopped hitting. Jung batted .308 with eight doubles, 10 home runs and 40 RBIs in 43 games. In his last 23 games, he hit .341 with seven doubles, six homers and 25 RBIs. He climbed to 52nd on MLB Pipeline's updated overall prospect list this summer. https://www.statesman.com/story/sports/pro/2021/08/20/round-rock-express-texas-rangers-top-prospect-josh-jung-promoted/8216313002/
  20. She had a great game including two ESPN interviews. Super young lady. Needs to hire an attorney for NIL. 🙂 Abilene wins 6-0 vs Washington. Play Michigan Sunday. Louisiana lost to SDak 2-0. Combined no hitter for SDak. First pitcher threw 5.2 before reaching pitch count. His 3rd no hitter in postseason. La plays Pa Sunday. https://www.littleleague.org/world-series/2021/llbws/bracket/
  21. Thought it was early return from injury.
  22. http://sportsnights.cc/events/los-angeles-dodgers-1010-new-york-mets-home/ Cory Knebel starting for Dodgers tonight.
  23. Coached by Brian Jean Mary at Tenn. Will there by any fights ? Excerpts: Mitchell, who led Texas in tackles last season before transferring to Tennessee, praised his new conference and congratulated the Longhorns on their future move to the SEC on Thursday. “I’m proud of them. They should (want to join the SEC),” Mitchell said. “They want to come over here just like I do. “I pretty much look at the SEC as the Big 12 and Big Ten combined.” With the Sept. 2 opener against Bowling Green approaching, Mitchell has made a good first impression. That could indicate his potential impact or the low expectations of the otherwise inexperienced linebackers unit, or both. “You can just tell from his demeanor as he walks around the building what kind of guy he is,” junior linebacker Roman Harrison said. “He’s a dog. I love the way he plays. He plays fast, aggressive, smart. He’s going to be really fun to see on Saturdays. https://www.statesman.com/story/sports/2021/08/19/juwan-mitchell-tennessee-football-linebacker-transfer-texas-sec-big-12/8118158002/
