Baseball Game Thread: No. 3 Texas vs. UC Davis (Sunday)
Already adopting Pack as my favorite player this season. Guy has swagger. Hope the fielding holds up to make him a staple

Men's Hoops: Texas vs. Mississippi State (5 p.m., SEC Network)
Ref show. Don’t understand how you keep letting that guy get the shot at the top of the arc. Just double him and force the pass instead of switching. Letting it happen over and over was ridiculous even if the guy is great.

That ref stared right at Sean Miller after the call from across the court after Miller went after him a minute before.

Texas to hire new Soccer coach
Wasn’t soccer technically our first ever SEC championship last year? Thanks to coach Kelly for a good run 🫡

Recruiting - could be some interesting news
This is the tricky part. If it was any commitment it would obviously be good news so no reason to add “imo”. What would happen that could be open to interpretation as good or bad? A support staff hire? A decommitment to open a spot for a new recruit? Hmm 🤔

Sark to NFL Smoke…
Sark to the Dolphins makes sense to me. Freeman to Texas would be great. To me the home run isn’t Saban, it would be Lanning. He’d still have a huge budget, but wouldn’t have to lure kids to the PNW. Not following the Saban legend was a sharp move.

If they call that PI on the Mosley drop then none of that happens 😭

Why the hell did we call a timeout with 17 seconds left and the clock running?

Sark eyeing NFL per report
Dolphins and Sark would be interesting. Coach is done there. Lots of fast athletes. Quinn… Tua… Waddle.. Sark knows these guys Say the Titans so the dolphins get interested.

Sark eyeing NFL per report
IF sark was in some kind of trouble for a bad habit then getting *hired away* by the nfl would be a good exit strategy for him and Texas. Fire him for cause to avoid buyout would be terrible for Sark, and Texas has a tarnished image. If he’s hired away by the nfl then Texas remains a destination job where we don’t lose coaches to other schools. CDC already had the Beard scandal. Texas has had 2 bad football coaching hires in a row and if sark reoffended then that would make 3 in a row. Stay and win or upgrade to the nfl. Best outcomes for both. I really like Sark and hope we win with him. But hire Saban and have him talk PK into staying is a fun dream

Gotta hang on to PK!

Sark eyeing NFL per report
If it’s the bad habit that sucks for everyone involved. I’d have hoped it’s a newborn and recovering marriage that makes nfl coaching more attractive given the time demands of college. Let’s win a game today and deal with the drama later.

The Texas offense isn't broken, but right now, the Longhorns are bad

The Texas offense isn't broken, but right now, the Longhorns are bad
When Caldwell came in last week and threw a pass it instantly looked different and better. I didn’t know he had come in. Same today when he had that run. It just looked smooth. It won’t happen of course because of who the Mannings are, but this Defense could manage wins with just a smooth game manager and we might have one on the bench. I certainly hope Arch can grow from what surely must be a rock bottom throwing performance. Hook’em

Final Confidence Rankings of Texas Position Rooms Entering 2025 (10:15 a.m. Thursday)
Just curious, is there an explanation for Wingo not having a bigger role last year? I’m excited for a breakout, but I recall Bobby singing his praises all camp last year, and he was good early against Michigan. With Bond’s struggles you might thought the young “superstar” would come on quickly. He seemed to fade. We’ve heard about the lasik, but I’m just curious if there was a reason he didn’t seem to grow in role throughout last year. Was he struggling with anything specific? Just a freshman wall?

Steve Sarkisian Thursday Availability
Sark has me confident too! I think Sayin is the real crux of this game. Unless he’s a superstar they will have some troubles. 5 star QBs struggle or flat out bust all the time. Starting your first game against a hellacious pass rush and you’re not a natural runner? C’mon, anyone would have trouble let alone a wet behind the ears starter.

Sarkisian on Emmett Mosley V Status (Wednesday 12:45 p.m.)
Maybe Mosley had some kind of procedure done this summer and didn’t tell the staff he wouldn’t be available for camp. That would probably lead to him being in the doghouse/ miss practice. Whatever the case, my expectations for Mosley this season are also “limited”. My sobriety this weekend also expected to be limited

Quick Hitter | WR Offseason Tidbits
This is exciting. I’m sure we haven’t seen the full Sark offensive experience yet. Quinn just didn’t have the consistent zip to pull off certain plays. I think there will be a lot more chunck yardage plays this seasin ala his Alabama OC years. Gonna be a fun offense to watch

ESPN: 2025 SEC college football projections, preview(in depth)
Eh sounds like he’s just looking for things to write. Basically, “what if everything goes wrong”? Well if everything goes wrong then Texas probably won’t be as good as people think. Mind blowing stuff! Texas doesn’t have proven depth… umm, well who freaking does these days? Sure we don’t have proven players behind the starters at every position. This can be said about every other team in the country. It’s just one of the only flaws to chat about when it comes to Texas.

DAILY THREAD: Texas targets announcing today (Friday, 8:24 p.m. update)
Thank you, I didn’t say it was tied to recruiting. I said it was cryptic, i.e. it’s not clear what the tweet is about. I appreciate the perspective from a fellow sports board lurker lol.
