Texas Baseball 2025 - Your SEC regular season champions!!
Gasparino is 1 walk away from matching his total from all of last season. Slugging % is up 130 points and OBP is up 64 points despite his average being a tick lower than it was last year.

Yeah, I don't expect us to roll through the rest of non-conference play without a hiccup or two, especially if we are holding back guys like Flores and Rerick for potential weekend roles. UTRGV (they are actually good this year), Texas State (x2), UTSA and Lamar are the toughest midweek games we have on the schedule and all happen to be during SEC play.

So I think at this point it's safe to assume 16 SEC wins is going to get you a hosting spot. The path to 16 as I see it right now: Need to sweep (3): at Missouri Need to find 5 wins in these home series: (5): Georgia, A&M, Auburn Need to find 5 wins in these road series (5): at OU, at Miss State, at Kentucky Don't get swept (3): at Arkansas, LSU, Florida

Service is the third string catcher and of course both his AB’s tonight are with guys in scoring position. If Pierce pulled something like that he would have rightfully been roasted even in a midweek game. Service is a good locker room but this ain’t a charity.

I would have seriously considered pinch hitting there.

Not even close to a strike

Weather this weekend in Starkville is dicey, so I think holding back Flores is about having to potentially cover 18 innings in a day this weekend if a doubleheader is scheduled.

In Caden Noah's last outing, he struck out 7 guys in 2 innings thanks to 3 wild pitches.

UT's next basketball coach - discussion/debate [Sean Miller Hired]
There is a screenshot floating around from Trilly Donovan's Discord (still not sure if this dude is to be trusted or not but he seems to be more right than wrong) that KD is really trying to push for Royal Ivey. Wasn't there a conversation on here a month or two back about a lot of former players being in his corner and saying they are willing to provide $upport if he is hired?

2025 SEC Baseball Thread
11 of the 16 SEC teams have SOS rankings outside of the top 100. LSU is outside the top 250. I think these coaches know they have to schedule stat padding weekends because 10 straight weekends of hell are starting up in mid-March.

Texas vs OU- veritable tourney play-in game - Saturday, 7pm on SECN
There are what, 37 at large berths in the tournament? The roster ain’t great but there are multiple guys who started for their previous schools in the tournament + Tre Johnson. I’m pretty sure multiple teams who finished ahead of us in the SEC standings would have happily traded their roster for ours. I don’t think it’s unrealistic to expect a team with some of the individual talents we had to be able to clobber together 7 wins and play in the tournament.

Are they going to ask Burns to close this one out? Interesting that they used Dre so early.

Nolan Cain is the most conservative third base coach I’ve ever seen

Santa Clara @ Texas Weekend Series
Looked it up and Antico was at .208 on this date in 2021, but he also walked a ton and provided great defense in CF. I also don’t remember us having an obvious replacement whereas Farmer is actually playing really well.

Santa Clara @ Texas Weekend Series
He was a .278 hitter in conference play so sounds about right. They apparently made some big mechanical tweaks to his load and swing before the season. Obviously isn’t working.

Schloss has seen enough of Winfield. The Sun Belt must be horrible.

Santa Clara @ Texas Weekend Series
One thing we have been good about all weekend is working the pitch count of these starting pitchers early. Considering this is their closer and last chance at chasing a win, it’s extra important today.

UT's next basketball coach - discussion/debate [Sean Miller Hired]
Gerry said last week Beard is going to be lobbying hard for the Indiana job. Ole Miss is set to lose like 7 of their top 8 scorers so I think Beard knows this is probably the time to bounce.

Rodney Terry has been fired
There was apparently some contract stuff that had to be sorted out and there was an incident towards the end of the season that complicated some things. His office was cleaned out within a week of the season ending. If it was all about having the next guy lined up and not wanting to draw unnecessary attention to him, why didn’t they just wait 24 more hours to fire him after the championship game?
