Also, sort of Longhorn adjacent is Shaine Casas, who will be swimming the 200 IM (alongside Longhorn Carson Foster).

Originally from McAllen (Puro RGV!), he went to A&M (first NCAA swim champion in A&M history), then intended to transfer to Texas for his senior year.  Instead of transferring, he decided to turn pro instead, but he still made the move to Austin to train under Eddie Reese.

UPDATE: Finished the semis with the 9th fastest time, does not qualify for the final

Royal Ivey: head coach of the South Sudanese national basketball team.

I’m also claiming everyone coached by Bob Bowman

He's the private coach for several American swimmers and he's the head coach for the French national team... so that's a lot lol

Also, pretty cool to see... they did a feature on American swimmer Reagen Smith (silver 200m backstroke I think) and showed videos of her training with Bowman while he was wearing Longhorn gear. Makes for great exposure I reckon.

I've read various articles (often not well sourced) that drew differing conclusions about which university has the most student-athletes or former student-athletes in these Olympics.  Finally did some searching and ran across this link from NCAA.com that seems the most comprehensive. It does count individuals like former Texas women's basketball player Lauren Ebo as being at three schools -- Penn State, Texas, and finally Notre Dame (where she graduated). Doesn't include coaches, though, so Ivey and others aren't in it -- just athletes competing in the games.

According to this I missed a silver medal somewhere.  As of now,  I had the count at 3 gold, 4 silver,  3 bronze

They only have us  with 1 Gold. Where does that difference come from?

ETA: NM. They just updated slower than you did.

Watching Scheffler during the Anthem completed this entire Olympics.

Stoic. Robotic. An incredible performance today, for the ages.

And the idea of representing his country brought him to tears.

Damn good, Scottie.  Damn good.

He's had one hell of a year between winning the Masters, having his first child, and bringing home a golf in Paris

you forgot the most important event.

 

viciously dragging a uniform pair of pants (which were being worn by a lying asshole) through the hard hard asphalt for a half foot.

That humble public servant was just lucky to survive and get back to his family.

She quasi-counts cuz she did post-grad at UT and trains in Austin. I was screaming as she sprinted down the straight ... and started to get dusty from her raw emotion.

And St. Lucia's second-ever medal comes courtesy of the same person--you guessed it, Frank Stallone. Wait, I mean the inimitable and icon-worthy Julien Alfred!

"she's did" lulz

Gabby got a degree from the University of Texas. A Master's. 

Nothing quasi about being a Longhorn.

 

She'll get into this thread by living and training in Austin, coaching at Texas, is a badass, back-to-back gold in the discus.  And knows how to celebrate a win.

 

Quote

Allman lives in Austin, Texas, and trains with University of Texas at Austin throwing coach Zeb Sion. Allman is also a volunteer assistant coach with the Longhorns. When she gets back to the Texas capital, she said she’s going to celebrate in the most Texas way possible — eat a lot of barbecue at one of Central Texas’ most popular spots.

“I’m so excited to get back. I’m going to Terry Black’s to celebrate and eat a pound of brisket,” she said. “I can’t wait to go all out there.”

Terry Black’s posted a congratulations on its story in response and said, “We’re honored and can’t wait to celebrate with you! Let the party begin!

Not a medal, but another Longhorn achievement. Sorry if posted and I missed it on this thread.

I wish they kept a list of each school's representatives. I'm using the Daily Texan list from the OP, which might not be completely accurate, but by my count right now, we're at 4 Gold, 5 Silver, and 3 Bronze

For the purposes of medal count though, I think hers count for Harvard since that's where she spent her entire collegiate track career

This list lines up with the same 12 - https://www.ncaa.com/news/ncaa/olympics-2024/2024-08-08/2024-olympics-medal-tracker-current-and-past-ncaa-student-athletes-paris

 

My final manual count of the list above is 3 bronze, 7 silver, and 6 gold for past or current Longhorns 🤘🏽

A- more than a shit load of developed nations.

B- All sort of sports.

Damn good showing. HOOK EM!!!!

Are Gabby’s golds only counted for Harvard?

Officially, yes only for Harvard because she never ran track at UT. She did grad school at the Austin campus of University of Texas Health Science Center Houston, one of the medical/grad schools in the UT System, but was already a professional and did not compete for Texas as a graduate student.

(Which raises an interesting question, would she have been allowed to run at UT if she wanted to while she was in grad school? Technically, the medical/grad school at UT-Houston is a different campus than UT-Austin)
