2025 Texas Coaching/Support Staff Thread
I guess with the new coaching rules, if they wanted they could just let Akina coach ball and Orphey could recruit the secondary and get another assistant (Clark?) on the road?

He left a head coaching job at Buffalo (not sure what is expected at Buffalo; he was 14-23 through 3 years and may have been a bad year away from being shown the door) to be the Bama DB coach.

Who is the pitching coach at UIW so I know to never send my kids to play for him. Their Friday starter (Salinas) threw 87 pitches in the season opener, came out of the bullpen in the first midweek game then made his normal start last Friday, a 7-inning complete game with 95 pitches. 3 appearances and 200 pitches the first 7 days of the season.

Texas Offseason 2025 - Archmania Is Upon Us
Always one of the more interesting offseason articles. Bill Connelly's SP+ returning production percentages (long article): TLDR: Texas returns a good amount on defense but loses a ton on offense. Ohio State, Texas, Miami, Oregon, Ole Miss and Georgia all rank outside the top 100 in returning production.

We will spend the next week talking about Jerry Gray and Duane Akina before Sarkisian finalizes the hire of Alcorn State's DB coach out of nowhere.

One thing we can't really account for is Nansen's input and impact on the backend. Gerry always talks about how the open practices for the media he attended, it was Nansen who was doing a lot of coaching and aligning of the secondary.

I think this will be the easiest departure to replace this offseason. Joseph was okay, but I think there were a lot of other factors that helped turn around the pass defense. I always heard he wasn't anything special as a recruiter. I think his Louisiana ties got overblown a lot.

Rodney Terry has been fired
OU is in Lunardi’s field right now at 4-10 in conference play and #51 in NET. The bubble sucks more than usual (but yes, let’s expand the field!). 7-11 will probably get Texas in assuming our NET stays around 40 (currently #38). Yay.

They have some interesting arms but can’t hit worth a lick. Also have to remember their Friday starter left the game pointing to his elbow. I don’t see how they finish in the top half of any conference and they will likely have a RPI in the 200’s. Dropping one this weekend would have really hurt.

UT's next basketball coach - discussion/debate [Sean Miller Hired]
I get there isn’t a super obvious candidate outside of several of the pipe dreams people will try to will into existence, but man it I would have some questions about how serious we are about this thing if we fire Rodney Terry to hire someone like Brad Brownell.

Maybe Duplantier is our best option to close games for the time being? He throws strikes and it’s such a different look for batters after seeing Riojas or Burns or any of our starters really. You probably don’t want to trot Duplantier out there for 9 outs against a SEC team but he can be effective in short stints.
