This time next week, much of the OTF crew will be in Tampa for the beginning of SEC Football Media Days.

We’ll have a set up there where we’ll be interviewing various folks from around the SEC. We’ll attempt to speak to a media member from every 2026 conference opponent to get their viewpoint on their matchup with the Longhorns.

It should be wall-to-wall football coverage. Hopefully, y’all like it!

As of today, Texas baseball is waiting on a decision from infielder Ethan Mendoza. Mendoza went undrafted and could return to Texas for next season (or even the next two seasons with the five-for-five).

I’m told Mendoza at one point was dead set on moving on to the minors, but his injury and upcoming surgery, on top of not being drafted have him re-thinking that decision.

His choices are pretty clear:

Sign an undrafted free agent deal for a max bonus of $150k or return to Texas and try to improve his draft stock.

A decision is expected as soon as tomorrow.

While I have to stop short of guaranteeing anything, there could be some very interesting news this week. I need to leave the topic out of it for now.

    In the age of nil, I would bet he comes back for a bigger payday now and down the road by increasing his draft stock.  He is one big year away from changing his whole trajectory..

    For Bobby to say I am not going to give the topic has to be football regarding Easton Royal, Monshun Sales and LWC  I am thinking any one of those topics hopefully it’s good news for us.

    Don’t worry about it happening today. 

    You expect any of us to work from now UNTIL the news drops (if ever)?  We may all be unemployed soon!!

    I don’t think Fong is using message boards to gauge whether Easton Royal is going to flip lol.
