Coach Jim Schlossnagle took the SEC by storm last year until the Longhorns started to run out of gas in May. But he’s built this roster through recruiting and the portal into one that looks more talented that last year’s. The Longhorns have a terrific returning lineup corps in Ethan Mendoza, Adrian Rodriguez, Casey Borba and Jonah Williams. Texas added a pair of the best offensive transfers in the country in Carson Tinney and Aiden Robbins and also got likely starters Josh Livingston, Temo Becerra and Ashton Larson. Texas’s pitching is exceptionally deep and starts with Dylan Volantis, last year’s superstar freshman closer, who this year could be one of the league’s best starters. Key returning arms are Ruger Riojas, Max Grubbs, Kade Bing, Jason Flores, Thomas Burns, Hudson Hamilton, Cody Howard, Ethan Walker and Connor McCreery. Transfer Cal Higgins and Haiden Leffew should have big roles, too.
