  1. Big addition. She finished 10th in the hammer at the outdoor championships as a freshman. Between Savva and Meeks, Texas could score a bunch of points in the hammer.
  2. Based on the thread it doesnt seem like the soccer team losing is a negative either if it means the coach is fired. A terrible season that leads to her being fired > keeping a mediocre coach. Shes the worst coach on campus if she hasnt advanced past a Sweet 16 in 12 years as mentioned by perfectchaos.
  3. 2 years ago. Base salary is around 200 to 220k from what Google says. No way a 600k buyout would save if her if its a bad year right?
  4. Am I the only one that believes Ashton Judd was an underrated addition? She averaged 12 points a game and around 5.5 rebounds per game over the last 2 years in the SEC. She can shoot from 3. Im trying to understand how she wasnt considered a top transfer?
  5. This clip brings back terrible memories. Is there any QB that collapses the pocket by himself like Ewers?
  6. How much evidence do people need to realize Ewers isn't a good quarterback?
  7. That article is funny. It had to be written by his team. Using UT all-time pole vault and high jump records in events Texas has never cared about is something. I'm sure he will continue to put out some banger tiktoks in Lubbock while not even qualifying for the NCAA championships.
  8. If only Hurley was as good at track as he was on tiktok. I'm sure we will really miss his 19th place finish in the high jump and outside top 20 finish in the pole vault at the SEC championships this past year.
  9. Am I crazy to think Texas can upgrade? Maybe its a dumb take but our overall hitting has beengood for most of the year but has generally let us down at the World Series. Our deep runs in recent years have been primarily because we've rode a dominant pitcher----see Kavan and Dolcini. Its weird because I would say our pitching has generally underachieved in the regular season but has been really good when it mattered. The complete opposite with the hitting imo.
  10. Flo's approach on the mens side is to grab all these "older" Europeans in the 20 to 24 range. Saino ran a 48.61 in the 400MH last week at the U23 EU championships.
  11. The men and women have top recruiting classes. Women probably the top class and men top 5. Something changed with NIL.
  12. No big names have left the mens team. Only 1 on the womens team. Other than that its all fodder thats transferred. The mens team finished 31st at the outdoor championships for a reason. The talent wasnt very good. Texas did what they needed to do which was upgrade and shed roster fat. On the mens side there are only a couple of athletes worth mentioning as big names.
  13. The new throws coach is already having an impact. Giovanna Meeks transferred to Texas. Finished 5th in the hammer at the outdoor championships. She could finish 1st or 2nd next year because 3 were seniors that finished above her. The womens team has a lot of potential next year.
  14. https://www.letsrun.com/forum/flat_read.php?thread=11436828&page=23
  15. Something happened with NIL based on our recruiting and transfer classes. Somebody received the message the results werent good enough this past season. The Letsrun track forum is already talking about how the men's team will be a major factor next year based on all the additions.
  16. Texas is going to be good and most likely national championship good for the foreseeable future on the womens side. 1 all-worldly sprinter gives you a chance and they now have that with Cooper.
  17. The big issue with Flo is hes as invested in training pro athletes in Austin for the Olympics as he is Texas. But thats also attracting some big time recruits to come here on the womens side. Elise Cooper is coming here to train with Alfred and Flo for the Olympics. Same with a couple others in this recruiting class. I do wonder if Texas needs 2 separate track coaches for both the women and men. Flos focus is on the womens side and training all these pro womens athletes for the Olympics.
  18. For those that dont know shes coming to Texas. This would have placed her 4th in the 200m at the college outdoor championships as a high school senior.
  19. Elise Cooper ran a 22.44 200m at nationals this weekend which would have finished 4th at the college outdoor championships. She could win the 200m and 400m in year 1 at Texas. Shes the next Alfred.
  20. Please show me the #3 pitcher they spent money on.
  21. It’s a waste of resources to pay a substantial amount of money for a #3 that might only pitch a couple innings in the postseason. If youre going to spend money do it on someone that helps you win. Nobody is breaking the bank for a #3 pitcher.
  22. exactly, you arent going to convince any good pitcher to come here to be #3. All-Big 12 first teamer from 2 years ago as your #3 is a luxury.
  23. Yes. Who are you going to convince to be the 3rd option with her talent?
