  1. Adding a portal pitcher potentially scares off Cambria. Her upside is really high. Ive never understood the thought process of adding a portal pitcher unless Citaly transfers. You have a clear ace in TK and then 3 talented pitchers behind her.
  2. Been amazed at some of his posts but never followed him before. Does he not know the top 2 sprinters in this years recruiting class are coming to Texas? If Elise Cooper makes it to campus Texas will be competing for a championship. I believe shes already run the 2nd fastest 200 and 3rd fastest 300 in US high school history. Puma has already signed her out of HS.
  3. They returning 16 points scored by underclassmen this year who will all likely improve. Then a couple more underclassmen that made the NCAA championships in sprints that didn't score. Then Bayleigh Minor is coming who is the top recruit. They are not going to be average. Top 3 team with national championship upside.
  4. The women are not going to be average next year. Theyre going to be in contention for a national title.
  5. Its not going to be a down cycle long for the womens side. 16 points were scored this year by underclassmen and then a couple more underclassmen sprinters who made the NCAA championships.
  6. The women are going to be in contention for a championship next year with Ndubuisi and Garrett returning. 1 more good sprinter that can score points in a couple of events from the transfer portal or recruiting class likely puts them right in contention.
  7. I think he directors cup released the scores prior to the track championships. So they kind of independently verify but guess he could still be wrong based on the track scores.
  8. Just about everything went wrong with DQs on both sides but it was going to take something really crazy because all the projections were assuming USC would win both titles. They were never beating Georgia on the womens side.
  9. Need Georgia to win the womens side tomorrow but think they're heavy favorites.
  10. Its over unless USC pulls a major upset and wins the womens side.
  11. I think its over if the directors cup updates page is right. Even if USC wins both track championships Texas would win the cup if they finish 14th on both sides. Based on early projections, the women are going to finish a lot higher than 14th to give the men plenty of room for error. Thats even assuming worst case scenario of USC winning both titles.
  12. Glasco really has walked into some crazy circumstances. First he gets to take over the best G5 program in the country. Now he gets to take over a program thats willing to buy any player he wants. Hes a good coach but nothing he did at Louisana was spectacular considering what he took over.
  13. Louisiana was a powerhouse before Glasco and better before him. Like somebody said before Glasco is a good but not great coach.
  14. I know everyone does it but it doesn't feel like the Matador Club is doing things the right way. Its obvious they were tampering with players mid-season. Theyre adding a clear target to their back already.
  15. If they do it's not going to be somebody as good as Canady. This is why this isn't sustainable. Players like Canady are rarely going to be available.
  16. Next year is going to be fun between OU, Texas, and Texas Tech. This is also setting up for massive failure on Tech's part. They will be better next season but they also aren't going to get the luck they did in the postseason with favorable draws.
  17. All that matters is the final result. From being national title favorites to Sweet 16 was a significant point swing. Like 50 points right? Normal dominant volleyball season and the directors cup is over. This year actually feels like a weird year for Texas considering some of the dominant programs underachieved based on historic performance. Thats probably why this is a close race.
  18. Based on expectations, volleyball is the sport that cost us. Down years happen of course.
  19. I could be wrong but doesnt our ballpark play a lot smaller? I would guess thats a big reason our pitchers had more success.
  20. Tech should be better next year but they also received a very advantageous path this year. They didnt have to play a national seed on their side of the bracket and only had to beat OU 1 time coming out the losers bracket. You don't receive that luck often that deep into the postseason.
  21. TK has never put together a fully dominant season like Cat but when the lights come on when it matters is when TK is the best. There’s something to being clutch in the postseason.
  22. Next season is going to be brutal because you can already see the way this is going. Texas, OU, Tech are all going to have rosters that would be heavy championship favorites most years. 3 of those teams in 1 season is wild.
  23. Maybe but there were risks in game 2 if we started Kavan. What if we lose and she's tired? What if she suffers an injury? The favorable circumstances were magnified much more in game 3 than in game 2.
  24. I like how Mike White was thanking people in the administration last night and didnt even mention Plonsky. Thats all you need to know.
  25. This ended up being the right strategy.
