The Longhorns think they are the best at everything. They are one of the best overall sports programs in the nation, better than LSU's overall. But individually in the major sports not so much. They have 1 football title in the last almost 40 years, LSU has 2 in the last 7 seasons. LSU is the top baseball program in the nation, 6 titles in less than 20 years (UT has 5 in over 50 years) and no one comes even close. They have never sniffed a basketball title, 1 final four in the last 60 years.

Thank you for expressing your feelings.

Numbers are a good thing.

UT has 6 baseball titles overall.

And they have 1 Final Four in the past 7 years.

They are the ones that are in line for titles RIGHT NOW...unfortunately, we aren't.

just had to say it.... btw, i saw they installed water fountains...and a nice wodden fence behind left and center...no more chasing homeruns in the field.


wodden fence???....

(j/k)

BTW, they are starting to install the new right field bleachers. Part of the outer, chain-link fence in right field (beyond the new indoor batting cage building) is down for the construction. Parts of the new bleachers are stored behind that wodden, er, wooden fence.

Right field bleachers...something new that all the rantards will claim won't be finished in time!

Pop of Texas= 24.3 Million
Pop of LA= 4.4 Million

That makes a huge difference. Show me a man who doesn't think so and I'll show you a moron.

Yeah, the team we...

Just kidding. Come on guys, I saw about 6 of y'all pull out the same come back on 4 different pages. Get that weak shite out of here.


But for real, I think this team is going to MASH the ball offensively.
Also, I think our defense will be just as good as last year's if not better... With Hanover playing his correct position, Nola shutting down SS, Mahtook and Landry in OF, and Gibbs - the most consistent catcher from freshman year defensively to upperclassmen with maybe the exception of Matt Liuzza. The only question I see is Dean at 1st, but whatever.
Now, where we succeeded in (front-line starting pitching, closing pitching, and clutch hitting) remains to be seen if we can even match that type of play.

Who knows? Maybe Dean will start off hitting .220 for the first few weekends of baseball or we lose to a couple LA directional schools during the week and I can be entertained by another early season baseball TD meltdown. Always my favorite time of the year.
