AUSTIN (KXAN) — After taking the country by storm as a relief pitcher last season, Texas sophomore lefthander Dylan Volantis showed what he could as a starter Sunday.

Volantis mowed through the UC Davis lineup, allowing one hit with eight strikeouts in seven innings in a 9-1 Texas win to sweep the Aggies on UFCU Disch-Falk Field. An unearned run crossed the plate in the sixth inning, and he needed just 78 pitches to get through his outing before Michael Winter worked the final two frames.

The Longhorns scored six runs in the third inning, five coming with two outs. Adrian Rodriguez smacked a bases-clearing double to provide the big blow. Aiden Robbins and Casey Borba each hit RBI singles, and Ashton Larson plated a run with a sacrifice fly in the frame.

Texas hit .385 with two outs, but could have done better with runners in scoring position, hitting at a .294 clip. Texas left 13 runners on base.

Ethan Mendoza and Anthony Pack Jr. each had two hits for the Longhorns. Pack, a freshman, is starting his college career off with a flourish, hitting .545 (6-for-11) in his first collegiate series.

After a 12-2 win in the opener, the Longhorns won the second game of the series Saturday 6-4. Mendoza had three hits, including a 2-run home run to dead center field in the fifth to tie the game at 2-2.

The Longhorns (3-0) continue their homestand at 5 p.m. Tuesday against Lamar. The Cardinals won their season-opening series against the Oakland Golden Grizzlies 2-1, but lost Sunday’s finale 3-2 in 10 innings.

SIOUX CITY, IA (KCAU) – The Huskers rallied back from a 2-0 deficit in the 4th inning to beat the top-ranked Texas Tech squad 3-2.

Catcher Jesse Farrell hit a two-run homer to tie it in the bottom of the 4th. Only moments later, CF Hannah Coor would hit what would be the game-winning strike into left field, bringing in a runner from second to go up 3-2.

This is the second time this season the Huskers have beaten a #1 opponent and 5th in program history!

Next, they head to Cathedral City for the Mary Nutter Collegiate Classic on February 20th, facing off against South Carolina.

The college football world watched Thursday afternoon as the Mississippi courts granted an injunction for Ole Miss quarterback Trinidad Chambliss. The decision by Judge Robert Whitwell pointed to the NCAA ignoring medical evidence from Chambliss’ 2022 season.

Due to this medical concern, Chambliss was told he was scheduled to be redshirted. He didn’t play a down in 2022 based on his testimony.

The NCAA has the opportunity to appeal, and they may strongly consider doing so. Details surrounding the case have created questions about the handling of the case.

The obvious conflict of interest has surfaced that Judge Whitwell is an alumnus of Ole Miss. He received his law degree there. While this fact isn’t an indication of his work or integrity, an appeal could argue this potential conflict of interest for it to be heard.

What might be more concerning is a post on X (formerly Twitter) that has circulated. In this post, Chambliss is seen signing a football. The allegation is that this football, being signed, was intended for the judge’s receipt.

This hasn’t been verified and may also be false. However, it has gained traction and been brought into question. Why would a party hear a case regarding their alma mater? Is it better that he had not?

These are questions the NCAA may ask itself. Could they also seek information on whether Judge Whitwell is a donor to their athletic program or NIL?

The NCAA has a decision to make. They may not want to continue this saga and let Trinidad Chambliss have his wish. Or maybe they will start asking the questions that some of the public has begun to ask.
