AO is on his honeymoon so to sum up the '09 season I (JA) will be writing in the first person singular. I know, it's revolutionary. We all know how the season ended (6-7, 5-1, 11-4), so I figured I'd go big picture with this one.
As a New Orleanian, the fall of 2005 was a tough time for me. ...
Championship Series Q&A With Burnt Orange Nation
andthevalleyshook.com 6/22/2009 — When it was looking like Texas and LSU would meet for the championship, the guys from Burnt Orange Nation contacted me about having some cross-pollination on the blogs. A couple of their guys do most of the baseball coverage over there, and they sent ...
Stoking the Fire
andthevalleyshook.com 6/23/2009 —
As persona non grata in the Texas blogosphere right now, I should take last night's classic as a chance to backtrack, give Texas credit, and back down from my "LSU is an unstoppable juggernaut" meme. But I'd rather throw fuel on the ...
Why Texas Bunts
burntorangenation.com 6/10/2009 — Bunting is like Greg Davis, everybody has a (mostly negative) opinion. With all the hoopla surrounding the bunt the last few weeks, we thought we'd take the opportunity to defend the bunt as an offensive strategy which has helped make Augie Garrido the winningest coach in NCAA history. We ...
Wait 'Til Next Year
burntorangenation.com 6/26/2009 — It's a refrain more worthy of a Chicago Cubs fan than a Longhorn baseball fan. As Augie Garrido says repeatedly, Omaha is the minimum expectation for his baseball team. His statements explain the massive disappointment felt by fans after Wednesday's loss to LSU in the CWS Finals, even though ...
Do You Believe In Magic?
burntorangenation.com 6/17/2009 — You can call it magic. The fickle Baseball Gods smiling benevolently down upon the Longhorns. Maybe it's just pure moxie. Perhaps simple, blind luck. Whatever the case, it's becoming increasingly apparent that this Longhorn baseball team has "it." True, there are still games to win before the ...
Texas Basketball Elite Camp
burntorangenation.com 6/19/2009 — The two football camps aren't the only major events happening at the University of Texas in June. The Texas Elite Camp started on Thursday and will continue on Friday as Rick Barnes and staff host some of the top prospects in the country in the 2010, 2011, and 2012 classes, and possibly even a ...
Morning Coffee Finally Reviews Sunday's Camp
burntorangenation.com 6/18/2009 — But first, the obligatory Lache Seastrunk section. After Seastrunk failed to make it down to Austin for the first summer camp, the speculation here and on other sites was that Mack Brown would choose to move on, as the Texas head coach often remarks that he doesn't want to recruit players ...
Wait, does Texas need more from its running game?
rivals.yahoo.com 7/3/2009 —
Everybody loves Texas this summer, for obvious reasons -- namely, it's likely to take 35 points to beat the Longhorns, and the only two teams that hit that mark on them last season finished first and third nationally in scoring offense. (And it ...
June 7 Summer Camp News and Notes
burntorangenation.com 6/8/2009 — In an amazing turn of events, the Longhorns managed to retain all 19 commitments over the weekend. A little bit of sarcasm there, but given the two recent defections, right now it's more about keeping everyone than gaining new commitments, especially considering the fact that most of the ...
Ugly Win > Pretty Loss
burntorangenation.com 6/15/2009 — We won't lie: we feel a little bit dirty right now. Having both grown up within two hours of Hattiesburg (one of us in Mississippi and one in Louisiana), it was tough for us to watch the Cinderella Golden Eagles choke away their first CWS game in school history last night. Don't misunderstand ...

Bleacher Report - College Football 6/23/2009
As I was rolling around in my bed last night, I was trying to think of an interesting topic to write about for Bleacher Report.
I wanted to write about College Football, and I wanted a list of some sort.
You should rank all 120 teams, Sean.

Look Out for ASU in 2009 —
Bleacher Report - College Football 6/27/2009
How will Dennis Erickson and the ASU Sun Devils rebound from their dismal 5-7 record in 2008 ? I was pretty surprised when ESPN's Ted Miller wrote about top returning Sack Master in the PAC-10, ASU's own Dexter Davis. Dexter Davis, LB Mike ...
