  • Is Bevo there Lobo? I am really interested to see if Bevo and Schloss have a natural bond and if Schloss willingly reaches out. Bevo is a huge part of our University and football program so if he has

Thats a solid group. The fact that we can count on both the dallas and houston series is way underrated I feel. We always seem to play poorly in them but its still cool our team does both. Great way to start the season experience wise for both the fans and the team.

Well, shit. There's three losses.

Or does the Globe Life curse go away after we move to the SEC?

I only went back the the last few tournaments, but we can't lose to SEC teams there going forward right?

I’d imagine Tuesday games vs TCU, Tech and Baylor? 

I'm hoping for ASU and Arizona since they will be near to play their new bitches in the Big12.

2025… 20 years since we won it all… fuck 

Well that’s kind of the pattern for Longhorn baseball.  Won the first two back to back, then a 25 year drought, then two in 8 years, then. 19 year drought, then two in 4 years, and now a 19 year drought

I would be floored if we got more than 1 of those draft-eligible guys back. Constantine, Tole and Mercer are done (I don't think he's getting a medical redshirt) so that is 13ish guys that will be departing already before we even get into portal exits and there is a lot of fat that needs to be trimmed off the bottom of this roster. 

Honestly, outside of Gasparino, Belyeu, Galvan, Schuessler, Grubbs and Whitehead there ain't much on this roster I would lose sleep over if they left. Maybe throw Borba and Tumis in that mix but that's about it. We always get excited about young guys like Kennedy and Farmer and whatnot, but those dudes are a dime a dozen. Probably 20 dudes in the portal just like them.

This roster is going to look a hell of a lot different next year - especially (presumably) with a new coach coming in.

Grubbs will be the only returning pitcher that you feel good about...so basically a David Pierce Texas baseball team

But... hopefully without that last part.

Assuming Whitehead regains his velo following surgery, he should at least compete for a Sunday/Tuesday role.

HS class coming in for those interested. Rainer and Gillen will not be making it to campus. Sterling is also probably gone but there might be a small chance there. Flores/Richardson/Schwartz/DeGroat I've seen in draft lists and mocks but all were outside the top 100-150. We get 3 of 4 from that group on campus and it will be a good class.

That’s an indictment if I’ve ever seen one. The cupboard will be as bare as its been in a long long time.

Which is wild, because Ace was the best starter on this staff for a large portion of the season. "Best" is relative, obviously.

Chase Lummus has eligibility left at Texas but will not be using it, per OB. Either going into the real world or portaling down to a smaller school.

Chase graduated in May with a Communications degree.  He is almost 24.   Hope he is a late round draft choice or free agent contract if he chooses.

Also means whatever CDC does, he better do it fast. Lots of work that needs to be done this offseason.

There is not a portal thread so I thought I would throw it in here....Gavin Kash is again available, he entered the portal today.

(And no, I don't want him or his whiny helicopter dad back).

Ages, for reference and draft context:

LBJ (c/o 2020), JT and Flores (c/o 2022) are all 21-ish. 

Gage is nearly 23. Dre will turn 24 before draft day.

Unless we throw Gage's brother a spot to get Gage for another year, I'd be surprised if any are back

I don't think any of them will be back (except for an alumni game). 🤘

Dre coming back would be a significant win, one less hole you have to fill and could easily slot into your closer role next year.

any top 20 program should have a capable pitching coach that can help a top tier pitcher

Capable being the key word.

 

The portal is moving. Hopefully UT is in there fighting / offering NIL to these guys …..

 

Hopefully David Pierce is killing himself trying to get those guys.

Texas will host LSU next year for a three game series in SEC play.

All 16 teams in the SEC will make the SEC baseball tournament starting May 20th.  Seeds 1-4 get a double-bye, seeds 5-8 get a single bye, and the tournament is single elimination. 

That's a lot of baseball teams in Bumfuck, AL

I'm willing to bet money that it will be at a MLB stadium within 10 years.

It’s going to be a logistical nightmare. So stupid for that tournament to be there

If we assume Flores, Thomas, LBJ, Witt, Boehm and Duplantier are all gone, this is what the roster numbers look like for returning guys:

C (4): Galvan, Schuessler, Service, Sanders

INF (3): Borba, Kennedy, J. Duplantier

OF (5): Gasparino, Belyeu, Cummings, Farmer, Peterson (redshirted)

RHP (7): Grubbs, Howard (lol), Selvig, Hamilton, Tumis, O'Hara, Zaharias (hurt this year)

LHP (5): Whitehead, Shaw, Santos (hurt this year), Harrison, Bertsch (redshirted)

24 total. Pretty depressing.

2 weekend starters (both Big 12 Conference HM), Big 12 POY, 1 Big 12 All-Freshman, 5 starters (2 Big 12 HM) with total 52 HRs... 

Has it ever been this bad?

Never better. And luckily Pierce has shown he can plug in 5 quality bats, find a Friday guy, and overhaul a bullpen in a single offseason

If you don't see the gaping holes on that roster I don't know what to tell you. Yes, I would be very pleased to welcome back Gasparino, Belyeu, Galvan and Schuessler from last year. But it gets pretty damn scary pretty damn fast after you get past those guys.

hopefully SeC baseball isn’t a very ride awakening for UT baseball.

As of right now, it damn sure will be.
