Preparation H XII Football, brought to you by University of Phoenix.... Somewhere David Foster Wallace rolls in his grave.

It’s “all gas”…

Concerning the question about future of bubble and Denius Fields, that area may be claimed by the I-35 expansion. I believe UT has committed to helping pay to “cap” that area of the interstate (which will be below ground through Central Austin) to create around 12 acres of new space above the interstate. EDIT: They have and it’s 17 acres. https://www.kvue.com/article/news/education/university-of-texas/ut-austin-i35-cap-15th-dean-keeton/269-1436a617-41db-440d-8070-aff1564ba21d#

@Gerry Hamilton, is UT a legit contender here?

I've heard that people close to the program expect Pierce back, but we all saw what happened to Tom Herman & Shaka. CDC doesn't telegraph his passes. (...and don't tell me that Shaka left UT for Marquette on his own volition)

...bunch of guys playing out of position all year resulting in a lot of really bad defense. Last season ended on a routine flyball.

curious.

Would love to see the numbers on players with multiple transfers. Can't think of many that have worked out (but hoping it works out for Big Bill). Will also be interesting how scholarship/roster limits affect the transfer portal. Does the portal become even more important?

ohhh, really good question. Was surprised to see/hear Tramel lean into "OU was deliberately stuck with the worse schedule". If I had to guess on the hypothetical betting lines as of May 2024- Tennessee @ DKR- W @ Auburn - W USCocks @ DKR - W @ Ole Miss - ? @ Mizzou - W Bama @ DKR - W @LSU - ? So maybe one loss worse or the same as our existing SEC schedule?

Did he work broadcasts this year? I didn't know he was even diagnosed.

Hopefully the replacement is in the CWS, so let's be patient.

Would love to hear this story. Fake or Jimbo's moving sale?

We'll end up as a #3 in Fayetteville.

Welcome to the A&M rivalry. They're always at their most competitive when they have an opportunity to ruin our season.

What a great series and what a great introduction to the rivalry that an entire generation missed out on.

Aggggggiiiiieeeeeeessssssssssssss...............

Poooooooooooooooooooooorrrrrrrrrrrr......................

We'll know soon enough. I fully expect that we'll be sent to Fayettenam or Collie Station. No matter the support of Occupy LF and former players, if Pierce doesn't make it to a final in the Regional, he's rightfully done. If you watched the games, this is not a healthy program. Having an assistant coach walk away before the first conference series with no back up plan is not a healthy program. Having no pitching coach is not a healthy program. Having guys playing out of position and giant holes in your roster is not a healthy program.

Unless the officer that was dragged was somewhere on the passenger side, this should be a pretty quick process. fwiw, I did read the officer that made the arrest was there for the fatality and not the typical event staff, probably not accustomed to the chaos of an event like that coupled with their usual duties to secure a scene. Still, appears that someone here didn't truthfully report what happened.

Life changing day for Watkins, congrats!

Damn, y'all getting the HC on the day before a Super Regional!?!

...will show up again in wherever we get shipped for Regionals.

Pierce ends our Big XII run with two bad losses attributable to poor defense, poor pitching and bad baseball. I have a feeling if he jeopardizes CDC's Director's Cup, he's gone (and Stanford is making a run in the Pac-whatev tourney, so it baseball could figure in to it). Not our standard.

as @Gerry Hamilton says, if you're making excuses for your coach and roster depth in the NIL era, you have the wrong coach.
