  1. Dre has not looked right since he had to leave that game during warm ups a few weeks ago.
  2. You can tell Schloss told Stewart to stand on top of the plate because after his first HBP he pointed at Schloss and smiled.
  3. Mendoza could have gone to first there. Catcher is running.
  4. Some of these defensive plays are lol for the worst fielding team in the league.
  5. He has been really damn good defensively prior to today. Give him a mulligan.
  6. Borba either needs a cut off man or Yao Ming playing first base. No inbetween.
  7. It is painful to watch Winfield up there right now. Straight guessing on everything.
  8. Thumb. I think he was closer to playing than Belyeu.
  9. There is a chance we may not see Belyeu today. Wrist issue from that diving catch in the 7th.
  10. Florida leads 10-8.
  11. Ole Miss melting down in the 9th trying to go for the sweep. Bases loaded nobody out for Florida down 8-7.
  12. We are going to play more innings if we let Burns pitch the 7th. Bring in a strike thrower.
  13. I think Lemonis' job is in serious jeopardy. 36-61 in SEC play since they won the national title in 2021. I think he is done if they don't make the postseason or limp in followed by a quick exit.
  14. Cowan is ridiculous for LSU. I don’t know why they are bringing that guy out of the bullpen. He was a starter at Wofford and was really good.
  15. Gerry said Devon Pryor is being offered around 500k to go to Oregon
  16. Looking back at some previous games in Columbia. I don't remember this one at all. What the hell happened here? https://texaslonghorns.com/news/2008/4/11/041108aaa_749.aspx
  17. Thank goodness because no one wanted to watch another inning of this after we had runner on 3rd with no outs.
  18. The Winfield experiment needs to be over. Maybe next year.
  19. I'm not sure I understand the tradeoff we are making by playing Rodriguez at 3B, which forces us to use a guy like Stewart at DH. Are we really upgrading by taking Borba out and rolling the dice with Rodriguez defensively? Stewart's bat ain't that special, as evidenced by him hitting 9th. I'm assuming this is 'do something or we are just rolling with Farmer in the 9-hole' time for Winfield. He is running out of chances and Farmer has him beat by a mile defensively.
  20. He might see the writing on the wall. 18-36 in conference play in his 3 years there. Probably another bad year away from being fired.
  21. Cross posting from 2025-2026 season thread: Gerry mentioned this morning he’s heard rumblings that Archie Miller may resign from his head coaching position at Rhode Island to join the Texas staff.

  23. Gerry OTF has learned that Sean Miller and and at least a couple of current staff members of his have begun the recruiting process. We can say that their have been calls made to the agents of Jordan Pope, Chendall Weaver and Nic Codie. That doesn't mean that's all, to be clear. And that doesn't mean that the three are staying, it just means initial discussions have began. And Miller/staff have spoken with their signees at Xavier, and agents of Ryan Conwell and Dailyn Swain.
  24. Obviously he has/had connections to a lot of these guys on staff, but Gerry seems to be really be hoping Ogden is retained as GM. Said Terry was overruling him on personnel decisions. Gave an example that Ogden had PJ Haggerty lined up last offseason out of the portal and RT said no thanks. (I do think there is value in having someone who knows Texas basketball like he does on staff, although it does seem a little unconventional for a new coach to come in and retain the highest ranking support staff member who was involved with the previous regime)
  25. Well yeah I don’t think any NIL budget we have is going to preclude the oil bros from just dropping random 7 figure bags for ones they want like they’ve shown they will do in multiple sports.
