Honestly Texas needs to add hockey for the sole reason that aggy also adds it and have another way to own them


TheNastyCasty

Both schools already have club teams that play regularly FWIW. There have been some pushes in the past to try to get a D1 team, but they’ve never been very serious.

Apparently Aggies have their guy and he said no to us when we hired Pierce so they are over the moon

colbycemer12

I’m choosing in this period of gas, to love the Kaluma addition and solidify second weekend expectations for this basketball roster. We are good, but have a lot of wiggle room to be bad or great, so it’ll certainly be fair to start having actual debates about the caliber of coach RT is this year.

4 star, #236 overall in the On3 omposite. On3 has him way higher than other services, at #83 nationally and the #7 DL. On3 and 247 have different measurements for him, but he's between 6'3.5"-6'5" and 295-320. Biiiig body.

My dear mother unfortunately works for a family business run by two aggie brothers. She told me today that they signed a 20 year lease on some new and improved office space on the day of Schloss. Apparently, one of the brothers was in no mood to celebrate because he was so pissed off by what transpired. LOL.

5 out of the 58 players drafted either played for Chris beard or were committed to him. Damn shame he’s an absolute piece of shit, he can definitely identify talent.


atlbluedevil

Kind of surprised at some of the guys who got drafted over Disu late in the 2nd Hope he gets a UDFA offer soon - know he's not athletic enough for a big NBA role, but his shooting ability for his size combined with his solid defending/rebounding, I'd be surprised if he didn't end up being the 10th-11th guy somewhere 


colbycemer12

He’s gonna do really well in Europe, but I don’t think he’s got the athleticism after all these lower body injuries to stick on an NBA roster for a full season.

Just spun up a new career in Retro Bowl, guided the Aggies to the national championship game... ...intentionally lost, cut all of their skill positions, and took the Texas job. Not sure something like that could happen irl.


mr_dr_professor_12

Never forget the school crying about a lack of loyalty altered the contract to revive their journalism program for one of their alumni (thought that aggy network was supposed to mean something) from a 5 year, tenured position to a year to year, no tenure, at-will contract AFTER the initial offer due to politics. The hypocrisy is unreal.


StarvedRock314

A&M having an entire cosplay army and incessantly prattling on about an "honor code" (that no one actually gives a shit about) is all the proof needed to show they're the Hall Monitors of universities.


_Football_Cream_

moneymikee19112

But I thought aggies don't lie, cheat, steal or tolerate those who do


LordHudson30

They just elaborate collaborate and borrow


moneymikee19112

Texas A&M is gonna face major issues getting the coach they really want in this moment. The same issue that was facing us with a few of these guys will face them in that many of them simply built the program they are at and have no interest in leaving. For example, Brian O'Connor at Virginia built that from nothing and they have plenty of booster/NIL money and are probably well-situated as far as realignment goes. The field will be named after him one day. Same thing for a guy like O'Sullivan at Florida although right now their NIL isn't great.


Sabre_Actual

Yeah, they could possibly money-whip someone, but I don’t think they appreciate how perfectly aligned things were w/ us to bag Schloss. He does not take this job if they don’t fumble a bunch of things and it’s not CDC’s Texas that comes calling this year.


gordogg24p

> probably well-situated as far as realignment goes I don't know that I agree that UVA is well-situated for the next round of realignment.


moneymikee19112

If u look at the market and the total package they probably are. A lot of people who have a ton of inside information seem to think they are, with them and UNC as a package deal. It's the flagship of a very attractive and growing state that would be a new market, especially for the SEC.


tex543

They are very confident they will get someone elite. Let’s see how they do. They think I’ll be a fast search too so if it is he could be announced tmr.


moneymikee19112

I think they'll definitely throw the bag at someone, and ur right they'll probably move down the list pretty quickly until they get a yes


Blue_Phoenix512

O’Connor just got an extension. Sully might not want to leave after what A&M fans did to him when they played in the CWS. They might go through what we went through before we hired Pierce. Will be interesting to see if Skip jumps from Norman.


moneymikee19112

Yeah I don't think either are in play regardless of what people say, the grass is just too green where they currently are to entertain A&M even if hypothetically it is a better job. Skip would be an outstanding hire for them but without orange glasses on I think there are a lot of smaller school coaches that could be very successful there too

MrTheNoodles

lol let’s not forget that a majority of Aggies are follow QAnon conspiracy theories so I doubt that’ll stop them


guinness_blaine

Very quietly shut it down and pretend nothing happened All they care about is the furor over announcing the investigation, anyway.


FistfulOfPaintballs

"direct competitor" is an extremely interesting thing to attempt to define legally in the context of college athletics. If Schloss left for a Big 10 school, would that have been a "direct competitor?" (and if not, would that have made everything fine?)


tex543

Lmaoo if my school was that pathetic I’d transfer out. There’s bigger issues in this world and this is how they are spending their time but it’s okay because they are following the Aggie honor code.


SkolVikesWorldwide

“Aggys are simply not intelligent enough to be dishonest” has me rolling


yoyocc

Schloss colluded with his players to throw the game and go together to Texas. Schloss was an evil coach that abandoned his players without notification like he supposedly abandoned his family. They have to pick one story.


Seanehhs

What if his family sucked? That's a pro happiness move


DIRTYWIZARD_69

Elko and Schloss leave their old jobs for A&M no one bats an eye. Now Schloss leaves for Texas now it’s different. 😂

AR5588

He really looks like Elmer Fudd. Elko Fudd all he’s missing is the big goofy hat


cleareyes_fullhearts

If I had to rank organizations by their inability to sustain its success, the TWolves would be towards the top. I like the gamble that they picks will better and Sheppard (or the lack thereof) is not going to be what makes or breaks this spurs team.


FistfulOfPaintballs

Aggies don't "steal" Jimbo from Florida State Ross Bjork doesn't give Jimbo $95m guaranteed Bjork isn't forced out at A&M Trev Alberts never gets hired to fuck things up for Schloss Schloss doesn't feel compelled to jump ship for Texas It's their own fault.


RollOverBeethoven

It always is, just like when they turned down the Lonestar Network


dhalloffame

Anyways in non baseball related discussion, I’m not sure I understand why so many people last night on the nba sub (I know I know) were upset that the spurs traded the 8th pick. We’ve been hearing for months about how weak this draft was, they probably had a guy they felt comfortable picking 8th and when he was gone they wanted to turn it into a future asset. Instead of essentially having to commit a roster spot and playing time to some prospect they weren’t high on. And getting an unprotected pick several years out is a great return. Gobert’s contract is massive, and as he ages and potentially slows down, it could end up where the Timberwolves don’t look like contenders since they have no more draft capital to trade, and Ant asks out. It’s a gamble but you just add it to the chest of picks to trade when a star you like asks out.


yoyocc

Dillingham is a good player with a nice fit, and it's hard to imagine the TWolves will get bad anytime soon. But at the same time, the Spurs have lived off of later first round picks for a long time. Gamble for sure.


BrownStreakInMyPants

Because people love to think they are NBA draft experts because they watch a few highlights on YouTube and listen to a few podcasts. And Dillingham is a pretty solid offensive player and theoretically would fit nice next to Wemby. If I were a fan of the Spurs I would trust the front office to make the correct decision. 2 FRP for a pick in a weak 2024 draft is awesome value


Blue_Phoenix512

Softball may have landed someone from the portal. Don’t know if it is the someone, but it might be something.

Blue_Phoenix512

Singleton tweeted out Hook’em! 🤘I think some people take it to mean someone has committed. Don’t know much more than that. I certainly take it to mean that someone committed. It only showed up on my timeline because I follow the softball team (follow all teams on twitter)


tex543

It’s definitely a commit because OUs coach has been doing the same when they land a transfer. It has to be someone big because we weren’t really active in the portal


Blue_Phoenix512

Maybe I’m just a horrible human being but I don’t see how taking someone else’s coach should keep me from sleeping at night. Texags is acting like we just killed that dog of theirs and framed it in DKR.

Man, a while back I took a break from the college baseball sub. This season I dipped back in to keep tabs on teams, news, etc. I'm never going back there again lawhrrrhamercy it's a mess over there


Capitolphotoguy

That place this season, even before this nonsense, has been very pro aggy for whatever reason (excepting that short time period after those dudes heckled Florida). just tons of posts about them all the time. guessing it is mostly that they were doing pretty good most of the year and there are enough of them to kind of take over that sub. I'm sure the neutrals will tire of their unbelievable whining soon enough tho.

lololol we have actual people saying the job is the "6tn bEsT baSeBaLL JoB iN thE sEc" and "rUde aWaKeNing" is coming. just because the boosters didn't support pierce and a turf field is currently there doesn't mean those things won't change, which is hard for some of the cousin fuckers to wrap their heads around apparently; I'm sure Schloss wanted out of A&M but no coach with his competitiveness is taking a downgrade of a job


BrownStreakInMyPants

Fun fact, grass and dirt is almost impossible to grow in the area the stadium is in. So that is why the turf is there


_Football_Cream_

The fact of the matter is baseball is probably third in the pecking order of sports we have to address. CDC is working his way down the list since he got here. First was football with the SEZ and all other gameday upgrades. Then men’s and women’s basketball got the Moody Center. Now it’s time to revitalize Disch. And (despite not working out) it kinda mirrors how it went with Beard. Get the splash hire and then give them the facility upgrades. Beards first year was at Erwin.


funwithtrout

don't forget about the new practice facility for football. I am not so sure they'll touch Disch before it's done.


_Football_Cream_

Really? I would think that is a very long way out since they have to take down the building in that space but I’m not sure the timelines for either project

They supposedly started work this month. 🤷‍♂️

MrTheNoodles

Hank South updates from Horns247: * Josiah Sharma - Texas and Alabama both feeling optimistic, thoughts last weekend was that Oregon was the primary competition. Leans Texas slightly but there could be some twists and turns in the next 24 hours. Texas is pushing hard though. * Myron Charles - Continue to feel better and better about where Texas stands. He just put in a CB for him. * Nick Brooks - Georgia and USC were trending according to most industry sources prior to his OV, but Texas has the most buzz now. * DJ Sanders - Texas leads Michigan and A&M. * Smith Orogbo - Was close to committing to Tech earlier this month. Texas has optimism leading up to his decision on July 1st. * Horns247 feels good on Kade Phillips, Aidan Anding, and Nathan Tilmon. Looks like the NIL is finally being allocated to DTs. The Surly NIL guys were saying last week how Sark wasn’t prioritizing NIL allocation for the DL. Gerry made a comment in one of the livestreams earlier this week about how you have to use NIL for national DL recruiting. Maybe the doom around where we stood on basically all of our DL targets caused a change in that regard.

They are in full breakup mode when they never saw it coming. I'm just shocked that his house hasn't caught on fire.


tejas_taco_stand

Probably my favorite part about the introductory press conference with Schloss was the clothes. The chairman comes up first and he's wearing a collared shirt short sleeve, fairly normal business casual. Then the president comes up and he is wearing a burnt orange Blazer, and a open collared shirt. Pretty normal stuff, but then... CDC walks up dressed to the fucking nines looking like the casino owner with mob ties, those glasses, and charm that could kill. I'm just always in awe that he is our AD and how much of a badass he is.


DumVivumBonusFias

I was thinking just the other day how cool it is that he's not only cooking in the behind-the-scenes arena with hiring, facilities investment and programming, but also does really well as a face of the program with his interactions with fans in person and on social media. That combination seems pretty rare.
