Summary
Jake Herman hosts the show, discussing topics in Austin-area and national sports throughout! Eury Perez and Jared Jones were both removed from the game in the middle of a potential perfect game this week, and Jake opens the show by discussing why this might be the start of a new trend for young pitchers in the league. Horns247's David Eckert joins Jake to preview the MLB Draft from a Texas perspective, share what the signing of Marcus Spears Jr. means for Texas Basketball, and ponder his biggest questions about Texas football with SEC Media Days on the horizon. Big 12 Media Days wrapped yesterday in Frisco, and Underdog Dynasty CFB Writer Steve Helwick was in attendance. He discusses his biggest takeaways from the coach and player comments and contrasts the Big 12 landscape in 2026 with last year's league. They also preview BYU as a potential conference favorite and Oklahoma State as a looming dark horse. Texan Live's EJ Sanchez closes the show with Jake in an endeavor to figure out which SEC schools are best embodied by which Austin landmarks and institutions. They go back and forth over Texas, Texas A&M, and other schools throughout the final hour of the show.
