Haha. I'm actually usually up Tuesday thru Thursday at 4 AM. One of the companies I co-own has health screenings on the East Coast which means some events are starting at 5AM there and is 4 AM here.

Wow!!!! They finally selected these 2 Longhorns to the National College Baseball Hall of Fame.
Bobby Layne and Houston Street to be honored on February 11, 2027 in Overland Park, KS.
Layne had a career 35-3 record with a 28-0 record in the SWC play. He was a 4-time All-SWC honore. He will anks in 7 of the top-10 career ranks. He is tied for the 4th most strikeouts in program history.
In 1946, Layne had 2 no hitters against Southwestern (16 strikeouts) and gaggy(14 strikeouts). He also recorded 4 shutouts, a school record that stood for a quarter-century.
The other is Houston Street. Street was a 3 time all-American. He is considered one of the most dominant relief/closer pitchers in college baseball history. Street helped led Texas to 3 straight trips to Omaha. Winning it all in 2002, finishing 3rd in 2093,and 2nd in 2004.
Street holds a school record 41 saves. He has an ERA of 1.31 2nd all-time at Texas. He was freshman of the year in 2002 in the Big 12 and was first team All-Big 12 3 times.
He was the 2002 CWS Most Outstanding Player in 2092 when he got a record 4 saves as Texas won it's 5th national title. After 2004 he left Omaha as the all-time leader in saves and is recognized as part of the CES Legends Team.
BTW, for those that don't think relievers are drafted high. Street was a 1st round pick and won AL rookie of the year in 2005.
