I want Schloss to become Mike Martin 3.0. Dave Van Horn has secured the title of Mike Martin 2.0.

He deserves this more that anyone alive. He had one in his grasps and purposefully let it go for the sake of tu and his pineapple buddy. May the baseball gods never reward him with another opportunity.

Gasparino being in the portal shocked me a lot.

I've heard that no one in Austin likes Coach Max or the approach POS takes with pitchers.
Don't know about Max and the Pitchers liking him or not but according to parents of players while Yeskie was our pitching coach the players hated POS and Yeskie was the one holding the staff together. Yeskie was ready to go when LSU called.
I think Chris Cortez tried to go to LSU with him, but the portal for intraconference transfers had closed.

Can't say enough about the job Yeskie's done, leading nation in K's 2 years running.

I don't want him to have near the success that Mike Martin or DVH have had in terms of SR's and Omaha appearances.

DVH has been 8 times and Schloss has been 7…it's pretty close already

Edit: I forgot DVH went twice with Nebraska so he's at 10 actually

Super interesting, as when he left here, most weren't sorry to see him go. We'd just posted the most walks our program had ever had.

Welp, there IS a difference between coaching and performance…

Are you talking about a pitching coach that has been to Omaha six times with four different teams and won two national championships, not to mention has been the national assistant coach of the year twice?

Yea he had a bad year in 2023, he also went to Omaha with us the year before that so he wasn't a total bust here either

I knew Hunter was coming. This dude is flat nasty. Threw several no no's against elite teams in the DFW this year and followed that up with a no no against the eventual state champion in the state semis. This kid has Asa Lacy talent.

No - it's just a general statement. There are countless examples from HS on up of talent outperforming coaching.

Hunter is really good. I'm close with one of his former coaches and he has been saying for a few months that we might get lucky and grab him. 6'5 lefties who run it up to the mid 90s don't grow on trees.
With an absolutely invisible slider that he can locate like few hs pitchers I have ever seen.

Is he a draft risk?

I was just thinking generally about coaching and performance.

The discussion was specific to Yeskie and someone pointed out how bad our staff was in '23 especially issuing walks. Schloss made his disgust known all season. I remember Schloss making a big deal about an updated approach to pitching instruction when he got Weiner. Schloss wanted an analytics driven coach. A complaint about Weiner is he isn't good with teaching actual pitching grips - which seems to me to be an important part about being a pitching coach. Go figure.

I haven't seen him in MLBs top 250 draft prospects or in any other draft analysis. It sounds like he has a big senior year though so maybe the writers are behind from scouting staffs. It only takes one team to fall in love with his ability.

With the scholarship/NIL changes, I would imagine it's a bit easier to get players to campus. I wouldn't expect to see a ton of prospects turning down 7 figure bonuses, but I would think HSers after the 4 or 5 round are significantly more likely to make it to campus (at least for schools offering full scholarships).

Yeah, my perception of Max is that he excels at (i) identifying quality stuff, (ii) getting pitchers to throw it over the plate by not getting too cute or throwing up meatballs, and (iii) good pitch sequencing.

The biggest thing he did for our 2024 pitching staff was getting Cortez to throw it over the plate. I also thought POS had a good feel for when to change pitchers and didn't ride starters too long (especially on the 3rd time through the order). I was actually quite disappointed Tanner Jones and Justin Lamkin didn't seem to progress much throughout the season.

Back-up catcher commitment.



As a freshman last year, played in 20 games and hit .258/.425/.453




Not a lot of buzz on this thread but to me that's a great pick up from a top notch program. Welcome aboard!

Some pre draft nuggets from Brauny today. Getting Royo back would be amazing.

In other news... Pearland kid.

Quote:

LSU has picked up a commitment from 6-foot-4 left-handed pitcher Ryler Smart from Tennessee on Thursday night, first reported by LSU Tigers on SI.

After the earlier addition of Danny Lachenmayer from North Dakota State, even more left-handed pitching to LSU's staff for 2026

I'll take it. Often these are the surprise stars that you have tucked on your team waiting for their opportunity.

Brauny eluded that Sdao has a high price. Hopefully, he'll stick to it and bet on himself to come back for his 3rd season and pitch himself into a top 1st-2nd round pick.

I have never expected Sdao back at all. The chances of him returning have always been extremely small. ESPN has him as a top 150 prospect.

If Sdao returns and is that guy again he's a 1st round pick.
