    I'm always going to fall on the nonfascist side. 

    Funny how the people who identify with the party not in office always claim the nonfascist side.  I’ve been on this site for a long time and often ignore most everything that remotely resembles politics, but this falls into that category.  The sooner everyone wakes up and realizes it’s all a fucking game to the republicans and democrats, congressmen and senators, governors to keep everyone in a frenzy, the better.  Today, it’s trump deployed the national guard to put down rioting in Los Angeles, left reacts.  Years ago, it was Biden arresting the insurgents at the capitol, right reacts.  Think I’ve said this before, but this place is filled with some of the smartest dumb people I know -credit to bud kilmer

  2. Reading this makes me ponder on an upcoming decision on whether to put our youngest in select.  He turns 7 in a week and has only played LL.  We had several coaches try to recruit him for this season and we turned them all down.  One of the teams was an 8U and wanted him to play.  Struggling with the whole select world as I see all of these kids who play select and little league and most of them aren't anything special.  I also see these kids get burnt out by the end of LL and into all-stars.  I wish there was a less aggressive baseball league outside of LL to play that didn't demand so much travel and late night games.  My boy would love the extra practice and reps but I'm just not sure about the time commitment.

    Howdy fellas, Aggie here but I don't want any trouble. I will be in town this weekend for the series and I am unfamiliar with parking near Disch Falk. I know there are several lots near LBJ Library that will be open to the public, but what about East Campus Garage? Will this be open to visitors? If so, if we arrive 2-3 hours before first pitch, are we likely to find a spot? Thank you very much and I am looking forward to what is likely one of the most anticipated regular season series in recent college baseball history.👍

    When I took my kids to a game earlier this year, we were staying across I-35.  We took an uber to and from the field with no problem at all.  We did sketch out a little early to beat the rush after the game though so not sure how the uber ride home would be if you stayed until the end.  Now piss off

    Not Texas, but interesting transfer news. Iamaleava to UCLA. 

     

      Reveal hidden contents

    Former Tennessee quarterback Nico Iamaleava is expected to transfer to UCLA, a source briefed on the process said.

    Iamaleava officially entered the transfer portal Wednesday with a “do not contact” label. He left Tennessee last week after attempts to rework his contract with a Tennessee name, image and likeness (NIL) collective went publi

    He initially committed to Tennessee in March 2022, shortly after signing an NIL deal with Spyre Sports, Tennessee’s collective, that paid him more than $8 million over four years. Entering the final year of that contract, Iamaleava’s representatives were seeking a raise to around $4 million ahead of the 2025 season, a person briefed on the matter said.

    The Iamaleavas also sought assurances that Tennessee would improve its offensive line and receiving corps this offseason.

    Tennessee was unwilling to meet the financial demands dating back to the 30-day winter portal window in December. On Friday, a day before Tennessee’s spring game, Iamaleava was absent from practice.

    Tennessee coach Josh Heupel said Saturday he elected to move on without Iamaleava when he hadn’t received any correspondence from Iamaleava or his representatives by the end of practice.

    “No one is bigger than the Power T,” Heupel said. “Including me.”

    Iamaleava quarterbacked Tennessee to a 10-3 record and a College Football Playoff appearance as a first-year starter last season. He threw for 2,616 yards and 19 touchdowns with five interceptions in 2024, his second season in Knoxville. Just six of those touchdown passes came in six games against SEC teams that qualified for bowls.

    His decision to transfer came at an unusual time. The majority of players who enter the transfer portal during the 10-day spring window that opened Wednesday do so after seeing a narrow path to playing time in the fall. Iamaleava, who was the established starter at Tennessee, will almost certainly head to UCLA with the intention of starting.

    Heupel said Tennessee, which has just two scholarship quarterbacks remaining on the roster, will be taking an additional quarterback out of the transfer portal this offseason. Graduate transfers can enter the portal at any time and non-graduates in the portal can commit at any time, but they must enter the portal by the time the window closes on April 25.

     

    Iamaleava was one of the best prospects to enter the portal in the spring window, but the Volunteers’ open spot and ability to pay near the top of the market could entice some quarterbacks who had no intention of entering the portal a week ago to do so.

    Meanwhile, Iamaleava, a native of Long Beach, Calif., is now expected to head closer to home as a key building block for second-year coach Deshaun Foster, who took over at UCLA last offseason after coach Chip Kelly left to become Ohio State’s offensive coordinator.

    The Bruins went 5-7 but closed with four wins in their final six games. The Bruins added Appalachian State transfer quarterback Joey Aguilar this offseason to an offense that ranked 95th in yards per play.

    Foster hired first-time play caller Tino Sunseri as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach in January. He replaced former Kansas City Chiefs and Washington Football Team offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy, who Foster fired at the end of his first season in Westwood. Sunseri worked as co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for Indiana last year, helping Kurtis Rourke lead the Hoosiers to the College Football Playoff.

    This is a developing story. More to come.

     

    With a last name like that, I wouldn't expect him to stay put at any school for very long

    You might want to consider the University of Texas O&G rights, which are a percentage of every well in the state, including mine.

    Not every well, just university lands mostly in far west Texas 

  6. There was some aggie dork in front of us, kept trying to get on the in game cam doing the horns down.  Camera lady wasn’t having it.  LSU fucks were loud and obnoxious until the last few innings

    I agree. I sent this text to a low to low-intermediate football fan. Yes a girl. 

    I don’t know if it’s just me, but our playbook has been very simplified since that first loss to Georgia. Head coaches simplify playbooks when they lose confidence in their quarterback. It’s simplified in order to statistically limit errors by the quarterback. That’s what all the short to the corner passes are. High percentage completions that give the struggling quarterback confidence, but gets only minimal gain.

    I remember early in season we were throwing deeper. We had a lot more explosive plays (plays that go for 25 yards or more). We don’t have many of those. anymore.

    Sark has lost confidence in Ewers, hence the few times he lets him throw an intermediate route, the idiot throws an interception. So back to the bubble screens. Rely fully on running game.

    It’s all very frustrating. We’ll get close this year but won’t win it all. Next year should be our greatest shot

    Notice the “should”.

    But it is going to get worse. Because as I’ve mentioned 3 million times, Ewers is going to come back next year. But the death knell is that Sark is going to throw all his support to this kid.

    And as I write this he throws a shit ball.

    Friend zone

    It's a cult.  They have zero actual knowledge about play in the Big 12, whether this year or in years prior.  Does it tend towards a less physical game in the trenches than in the SEC?  Yes.  Does it emphasize speed and athleticism and misdirection more?  Yes.  Even w/o UT and OU as members.

    They will find any excuse to hand-wave away Big 12 teams that dominate their top tier teams, like Texas vs UGA (bowl) or Texas vs 'bama (2023 but even 2022 was close, despite Ewers' injury and let's not forget the screw job in the end zone).

    Fuck A&M.  I hesitate to call them "little brother" because (a) I don't have a brother and (b) if I did I would love him, not want him to get hit by a truck.

    I might be drinking already.

    As a little brother with two older brothers, point b made me laugh out loud

    Even through the early 80s for some reason most football coaches thought of water as either bad for you or as a reward. You'd sweat out whatever fluids you had in your system in the first half of practice and none of us were particularly big on hydration back then. Then you'd get to suck lukewarm water through a garden hose and PVC pipe contraption designed and built by a group of PE majors for maybe 5 seconds if you had a good first half of practice. Then there was the second half

    We must have played on the same high school football team 😂
