That has to hurt. That is like A&M losing to A&M-CC

Opposite. I have wanted Pierce gone for a while now.. this is a step in that direction.. so I'm okay with it.

We lost to A&M-CC as well this year.

We play UT Arlington next Tuesday..
Go Mavericks!

Ouch, BigBro. You know it is bad when you root against your own team. Been there with Fisher ...

I don't actually want Texas to lose.. I just don't want Pierce to stay. As bad as it is this year, it will be an absolute blood bath next year if he is still our coach.

Just wait. You know the NCAA is gonna try and put yall in the same regional as us. You might be a #3 seed in it but the NCAA loves to match us up in the postseason

This team isn’t making the post season.

If we make the postseason, we will 100% be placed in the College Station regional, but I'm not sure you want that matchup because Pierce does have rabbits in his hat during the postseason..

If Texas loses the regional, Pierce probably gets fired.

If Texas wins that regional, we get to laugh at A&M but we are probably stuck with Pierce for another year. But we also get to play in the Super Regional for a chance to go to Omaha, where we would 100% go 2 & Q yet again..

I honestly don't know which one I would pick.

I really don't want Pierce at Texas next year..

Texas RPI is currently 76th.

Is that good?

Current RPI

1-Texas A&M (33-4)
3-Kentucky (31-5)
4-Arkansas (31-5)
7-Tennessee (31-6)
10-Georgia (27-9)
13-South Carolina (26-11)
17-Vanderbilt (27-10)
22-Oklahoma (21-14)
23-Alabama (24-13)
28-Ole Miss (20-16)
35-Auburn (19-17)
41-Florida (19-17)
48-LSU (23-15)
57-Mississippi St. (23-14)
76-Texas (22-16)
88-Missouri (17-21)

In the Big 12.. we would get slaughtered with him next year.

if it hastens Pierce's exit it's well worth it. Go TCU

He should have been fired last year but sadly our fans are reduced to simply being happy to get there now. Not sure when the fanbase broke but it's fricking sad.

Yes

That was pretty much my point. At home to 3 win Kansas.

Typical aggies
They have the #1 team in the country but more worried about Texas dropping a meaningless midweek game

Not worried bro. Just chuckling and in disbelief of what this team used to be.

Don't worry, they'll be back at some point.

Really no big surprise that UTRGV beat Texas. Like A&M Corpus Christi also has baseball potential. Lots of damn good Hispanic baseball players in the area.

Lol…obsessed with the Aggies aren’t you? I can’t see where LSU has any dawg in this hunt (post), except your obsession with your betters. You do realize that with the addition of Texas and OU your tiny poor school falls even further into mediocrity? Funny how all the LSU posters are disappearing reduced to making completely irrelevant comments in a pathetic attempt at self validation. Lol

It's a complete waste of time to let him linger around for another year.


I assume he’ll be gone. But someone needs to ask him what he is doing with the pitching staff

In celebration of this historic victory, UTRGV is offering fans the chance to purchase a package containing ticket to all four of next week’s home games for just $20 at GoUTRGV.com/WeBeatTexas.

The first 1,000 fans in attendance at the 6:30 p.m. game against Stephen F. Austin on Friday, April 26 will receive commemorative t-shirts celebrating UTRGV’s historic victory over Texas.


He is done! So who should Texas hire?

1) Schloss (worked for CDC at TCU)
2) O'Sullivan
3) Vitello
4) Bakich
5) Heefner
6) Saarloos

I think Bakich will be the guy, but I think you have to kick the tires on the first 3 before that..

eta: A wildcard. Tulo.

Oh no, Aggies pointing out the canyon like difference at this present time between one of their rivals and their associated baseball programs.

I mean, we run rule a team that just won a series vs a ranked opponent. And they get run ruled by a team that had not won there since 1968. Yes, they were down 17-7 after 8 innings.

Its very fun to point out.

Posts like this are why the nation constantly laughs at Aggie.
