The Chicago Bulls selected Dailyn Swain with the No. 15 overall pick in the first round of the 2026 NBA Draft on Tuesday. The 6-foot-7-inch, 211-pound Swain is the 21st Texas product to be picked in the first round of the draft and the 17th Longhorn to go in the first round since Chris Mihm, who the Bulls took with the No. 7 overall pick in the 2000 draft (later traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers). Swain joins Mihm and LaMarcus Aldridge (No. 2 overall in 2006, later traded to the Portland Tr

When the curtain falls on the first round of the 2026 NBA Draft, Dailyn Swain should have a new place to call home. It’s unclear how long Swain will wait to hear his name called once the Washington Wizards are on the clock for the No. 1 overall and the draft begins on Tuesday (7 p.m., ABC/ESPN). Nevertheless, ESPN analyst Jay Bilas believes the team that picks the Texas standout will be getting a prospect who will check a lot of boxes for a franchise looking for a piece to fit into its cham

Jim Schlossnagle and the Texas baseball program secured a transfer portal commitment from St. Mary’s catcher Ian Armstrong on Saturday. Armstrong’s commitment, which he announced on Instagram, fills one of the Longhorns' most significant roster needs with one of the top prospects available in the portal. After Carson Tinney’s All-American season at (.326/.483/.688 with 22 home runs and 58 RBI) and behind the plate (ABCA Division I Rawlings Gold Glove winner) in 2026, and Rylan Galvan’s an A

The simplest explanation as to why Texas’ time at the College World Series ended after three games, two of which were losses to Georgia, including a 2-0 season-ending defeat at the hands of the Bulldogs on Tuesday, is that the offense didn't do enough to back up an overall winning performance by the pitching staff.  The Longhorns got the bulk of their production in Omaha from the middle of the order, with Ethan Mendoza, Anthony Pack Jr. and Adrian Rodriguez doing most of the damage Jim Schl

Texas had chances to extend its season in Tuesday’s College World Series elimination game against Georgia. Unfortunately, the Longhorns went 0-for-8 with runners on base and 0-for-5 with runners in scoring position in a 2-0 loss to the Bulldogs, making for a disappointing end to the team’s first trip to Omaha under Jim Schlossnagle. Texas (46-15) ends the 2026 season three wins shy of the national championship series, which the program hasn’t reached since 2009. "The bounces didn't go

Jim Schlossnagle was ready to go to bat for Adrian Rodriguez. Thankfully, the Texas coach didn’t need to intervene on a scoring decision in Monday’s 14-2 thumping of Alabama in a College World Series elimination game. The decision to award Rodriguez a second-inning triple instead of a double with an advancement on an outfield error was historic. Rodriguez would’ve been 5-for-5 regardless of how the hit was scored on an afternoon at Charles Schwab Field when he tied single-game College World

With its season on the line in an elimination game at the College World Series, Texas rode an offensive explosion to a 14-2 rout of Alabama at Charles Schwab Field on Monday to stay alive in Omaha. The Longhorns throttled the Crimson Tide to the tune of 13 hits, seven of which went for extra bases. Adrian Rodriguez had a historic 5-for-5 afternoon, becoming the third player in the 79-year history of the College World Series to hit for the cycle with a two-run double in the first inning, a t

A disastrous first inning set the tone for Saturday’s 7-1 loss to Georgia in the College World Series, sending Texas to the loser’s bracket in Omaha with an elimination game against Alabama coming up on Monday (1 p.m., ESPN). Dylan Volantis walked third baseman Tre Phelps, setting the table for left field Ryan Lujo’s two-run home run down the left-field line. From there, a throwing error by Carson Tinney on a dropped third strike and one of a career-high four batters Volantis hit loaded the

Before Texas faces Georgia in the Longhorns’ first game at the College World Series against Georgia on Saturday (7 p.m., ESPN), coach Jim Schlossnagle, pitcher Luke Harrison and All-American catcher Carson Tinney will meet with the media at Charles Schwab Field Omaha on Thursday. The No. 6 overall seed in the NCAA Tournament, Texas (45-13), is in the College World Series for an NCAA-record 39th time after a two-game sweep of 11th-seeded Oregon in the Austin Super Regional. One of five SEC t

When the SEC unveils the TV windows for the remaining conference-controlled games in 2026 during a live SEC Network special on Wednesday (6 p.m.), Texas fans will be one step closer to knowing when the Longhorns will be kicking off every game of Steve Sarkisian’s sixth season. Still, the schedule isn’t expected to be set in stone. The SEC typically utilizes a six-day window to announce kickoff times for flexed regular-season games. If a firm start time isn’t given, the game will be ass
