Yep. To be around the upper end of nearly every team sport you have to keep trying to make your existing roster obsolete. Hard job for the coaches to make it all work, but bringing in better talent is the only way to become great and stay that way. Gasso continues to teach a masterclass in that.
That's when I quit thinking of a title and went to just hoping for a win that would let us still be alive the next day. Can't cut it much closer than that.
There was much speculation Brown would go to ND after decommitting from USC, due to coaxing by Javian Osborne. Does Brown now coming to Texas in any way affect the Finley recruitment by us or ND? I can't imagine it lessens our interest in him. He's a stud.
Hard for me to get a feel for his speed at that level of competition. And he's certainly not too highly rated. But as always, my default is to say Sark and Jackson might know a bit more about WR talent, development and fit than I do. So...welcome to Texas, son!
Opposing pitchers can be tricky to assess for one obvious reason: They don't face the same lineups. As phenomenally as TK pitched this week, how would Canady have fared against her own teammates instead of the firepower we threw out there? Would our lineup have hit TK better than Tech's did? Was Cat better than either of them? Such questions make for long and inconclusive historical debates, but in the end it doesn't matter. Just glad we came out on the happy end of this epic duel.
When have a 1-trick pony, eventually it doesn't matter how great the trick is...you either have to add another trick or find a new audience. Glasco wasn't in position to do either last night.
