March 27, 20214 yr Three more events left. Texas leading by about 21 points. Slight chance that diving can seal the deal before the last relay is in.
March 28, 20214 yr Champs again. 15 and 5 of the last 6 years. Eddie is by far the most successful coach ever at UT and top 5 in college sports ever.
March 28, 20214 yr There is no comparable coach in swimming on the collegiate level or even Olympic level to Eddie. 15 championships over 5 decades , not to mention all the other top 3 finishes is amazing. What is equally awesome is how the sport has evolved during his tenure and he has not only adapted but kicked ass.
March 28, 20214 yr Eddie’s not a legend. He’s what legends aspire to be.And he’s a great guy. My wife worked for him (LONG ago), and he was never anything but good to people.

Also, Swim Swam has the breakdown. Most of Texas' points came from non seniors, where as most of Cals points came from Seniors. 2022 will be interesting.
March 29, 20214 yr Sad day that we knew would come. What a fucking legend. No pressure on the next coach or anything.
March 29, 20214 yr The greatest athletics coach we had here on campus without a doubt. Congrats on a remarkable career and on your retirement, Coach Reese. Will miss just assuming we won a national championship in something mid-spring every year.
March 29, 20214 yr The only time I saw the Tower in person with the #1 was because of him. Thank you, Coach Reese.
March 29, 20214 yr Wow. What a career for a such a nice person. Eddie remembered my name every time I saw him after my very brief walk on status at UT.

March 30, 20214 yr Goddamit. A legend of legends. Can’t even begrudge him his well earned and deserved retirement.He’s everything you ever want a Texas coach to be.
March 30, 20214 yr Tip of the hat, sir. What an example he set and a tremendous representative of Longhorn Nation!
