Director's Cup Update:
After a 2nd place finish by
@TexasTFXC
women,
@TexasLonghorns
and
@_delconte
have clinched back to back
#DirectorsCup
Championships:
1. Texas - 1440.5
2. Stanford - 1343.25
3. Michigan - 1245.25
With only baseball remaining, Stanford's max score is 1379.25
Texas and Oklahoma compete in 19 of the same sports. OU has 3 sports Texas does not, M&W Gym and Wrestling. Texas competes in rowing and M Swimming (no fencing).
Considering only the 19 sports that overlap, the Directors' Cup score would be:
Texas: 1233
OU: 596
For the first time this season the
@TexasLonghorns
claim the top spot on the leaderboard. The
@GoStanford
Cardinal will need a big finish in W Track tomorrow to reclaim the lead. Either way, we will know our winner by tomorrow night!
The
@TexasLonghorns
advance to the championship with a minimum of 90 pts earned towards the
#directorscup
.
A repeat of their championship performance from last year would earn them 100 points.
Fans of the
@SEC
, allow me to introduce myself. I am a Texas alum who has been tracking the Directors' Cup over the last few years.
This year I will also be providing updates for the SEC All Sports Trophy. Be sure to follow as we rank the top athletic departments in the SEC. 🧵
Top 10 teams in points per team scoring
Of departments that do more with less, the
@TexasLonghorns
lead the way. Their avg score of 70+ pts is roughly equal to a 6th place finish in every sport.
@GoStanford
continues to do more with more and that is impressive in its own right.
The
@TexasLonghorns
and
@_delconte
had their best
#DirectorsCup
Fall of all time scoring 344 points.
Last fall they had their 2nd best start, scoring 298 pts. They improved/matched in 4 of their 5 fall sports this year.
The only sport Texas has that A&M does not is rowing.
If A&M literally won the rowing championship and Texas didn’t have a rowing team, the final Directors’ Cup scores would be:
Texas: 1305
Texas A&M: 1159.25
Predicted final score spot check:
@TexasLonghorns
- 1402.25
@GoStanford
- 1319.75
Final results coming over the next week for tennis and women’s golf will be huge for setting up an exciting finish in early June.
The win today by
@TexasMBB
increases their
#directorscup
points from 25 to 50. The 25 point increase could be a huge determining factor in who wins the cup this year.
The battle of
#directorscup
powerhouses with powerhouse volleyball teams did not disappoint. The
@TexasLonghorns
land the first punch as
@TexasVolleyball
beats Stanford to advance to the final 4.
Stanford will score 73 pts while Texas has secured at least 83.
The
@TexasLonghorns
won their 3rd Directors' Cup after a 3rd place finish in W Track and Field.
5 of the 10 teams in this updated top 10 will be facing off in Omaha in the CWS. The winner can add 27 points to their score (73 pts already secured by making the CWS).
Bedlam - Directors' Cup Edition
OSU and OU compete in 17 of the same sports. OU has M&W Gym, W S&D and W Vball that OSU does not.
In the 17 sports both teams compete in:
OSU: 896
OU: 646.5
I expect this to cause absolutely no controversy.
The first predicted finish for the 23-24
#Directorscup
season shows a very tight finish between the
@TexasLonghorns
and
@GoStanford
.
It's early, and lots will change but I expect those two to end up on top and we probably won't know until we get to both CWS who will win it all.
The
@TexasLonghorns
make their way into the CFP.
Reminder,
#DirectorsCup
points are awarded based on the final Coaches Poll. The playoff doesn't directly factor into the scoring, though
@TexasFootball
has likely secured at least 70 points based on their current ranking.
Texas and LSU compete in 19 of the same sports. LSU has W gym and beach VB. Texas has rowing (will have beach VB next year).
In the 19 shared sports:
Texas: 1305
LSU: 834
I take any and all requests
The irony of comments like this is A&M has the same sports as Texas, except for rowing.

@GoStanford
the largest school to make the list.
Less than 3 months ago this account had 800 followers and I was trying to get to 1000 before the end of March Madness.
Today it hit 1500. Apparently a really tight
#DirectorsCup
race does good things for this account.
Thanks and welcome to all the new followers!
Nearly at the finish line and the top 3 teams have separated themselves.
This top 10 includes all points secured in baseball and softball to date. The only sport not included is M&W Outdoor Track and Field.
Final Score prediction update:
@TexasLonghorns
- 1365.5
@GoStanford
- 1334.05
31 pt lead includes 37.5 pts from Texas baseball. While their RPI is 68, tourney predictions have them as a 3 seed.
20 pts swing possible in favor of Texas Rowing this Saturday.
Beach volleyball with its biggest upset in tournament history as 11 seed

The loss drops Stanford from 83 expected points down to 65.
A semifinal win over Wake forest sends
@TexasMTN
to tomorrow’s championship match.
They have secured their predicted 90 points and look to add 10 more tomorrow.
Gilles-Arnaud Bailly takes down Matthew Thomson, 6-3, 7-5, at No. 3 to send the Longhorns to the NCAA Championship!!

A new scoring system was introduced in 2018 to make the cup more competitive. The old system calculated scores based on the top 10 men's and women's sports (20 total).
Under the old system this year's scores would be:
Texas 1377
Stanford 1374.25
Predicted Top 3 Finish
1.Texas 1450.5
2.Stanford 1359.75
3.Michigan 1245.25
Prediction based on current rankings or seeding for baseball, softball and T&F (Ex.
#9
Texas expected to lose to
#8
ECU in baseball super regionals).
@kyleumlang
@LonghornPod
@GoStanford
@UMichAthletics
The 2nd place finish for
@TexasMTN
adds 90 points to their
#directorscup
score. As the 2 seed, this was the predicted amount of points.
An updated top 10 coming later today.
Women’s sports have been a huge factor in the
@TexasLonghorns
winning 3 of the last 4 Directors’ Cups.
They take home their third consecutive Capital One Cup!
Check out my first predicted top 10 of the year!
I use the current rankings for all active sports and calculate the finish if each team were to finish as currently ranked.
#HookEm
fans, check out the latest
@LonghornPod
to hear more of the details.
All Time Top 10 Directors' Cup Finishes:
@GoStanford
and
@FloridaGators
continue their perfect streaks of top 10 finishes.
No new schools added to the list of 28 that have finished top 10 in the 30 years of the cup.
With their sweet 16 win,
@TexasWBB
increases their
#directorscup
score to 73 points. An elite 8 win would push it to 83.
@StanfordWBB
finishes their season tied for 9th and scores 64 points.
Unfortunately, another missed opportunity for these two teams to meet in the tourney.
I knew he was the best in the land, but I didn’t know he’d officially be named AD of the year when I got to meet
@_delconte
this past weekend.
Congrats and keep up the great work.
The
@TexasLonghorns
start to close the gap on
@GoStanford
a bit after
@TexasRowing
edged out
@StanfordRowing
in the NCAA Rowing Championship.
I'll add earned points in softball/baseball after this weekend's action wraps up. Track and Field starts Wednesday and ends Saturday.
The
@TexasSoftball
team comes out on top of another thrilling matchup against rival A&M. 3 1 run victories with 24 runs scored in the last 2 innings over the 3 games.
Texas increases their points scored to 73.
Does
@StanfordSball
match by beating LSU tonight?
The
@TexasVolleyball
team advances to the elite 8 with a dramatic victory over Tennessee. That guarantees 73
#directorscup
points for the
@TexasLonghorns
.
Stanford volleyball could meet Texas in the next match with a victory tonight.

defeats (3) Tennessee to advance to the Stanford Regional Final in a back-and-forth 5 set battle 🤘
#NCAAWVB
How the
@SEC
standings look after the addition of Texas and OU.
Both schools will immediately enter the mix and compete for multiple conference and national championships.
The strongest athletic (and football) conference grows stronger.
UNC, Duke and NC State compete in 21 of the same sports.
In these 21 sports, each school's Directors' Cup score is:
UNC: 923.75
Duke: 653.5
NC State: 808
Two player of the year winners, playing for the two Directors’ Cup contenders will face off head to head tonight in the first round of the softball CWS.
Winner of the game increases points scored from 73 to 78.
And this is what indeed happened. New rankings today have Texas
#1
and Stanford
#2
.
As close as things are, the ncaa rowing championship is going to have a major impact on the overall finish.
I expect updated rankings to flip flop with Texas as
#1
and Stanford
#2
.
That’ll add 10 pts for Texas and take 10 away from Stanford.
Lots could change at nationals, factoring in all the other boats (and geese) on the water and all of today’s races were quite close.
New standings after official release with a few corrections:
1-Texas 1449.5
2-Stanford 1352.25
3-Michigan 1245.25
4-Ohio State 1184.50*
5-Florida 1180.75
6-UNC 1087.25
7-Arkansas 1040.75
8-Notre Dame 1016
9-Kentucky 979.75
10-OU 951.5
Scores include current baseball results
The
@TexasLonghorns
have competed in 10 sports this season that
@GoStanford
also participates (basketball included).
In those 10 sports the total
#directorscup
scoring is:
Texas - 674.5 (w bball still playing)
Stanford - 543.75
A 4-3 final score for 9 seed
@TexasWTN
advances them to the sweet 16 for a matchup against 8 seed UCLA.
They have secured 64 pts as expected and look to add 10 more by pulling the upset over the Bruins.
The
@TexasLonghorns
and
@GoStanford
both add another entry to this list of Top 10 scores all time (since the new scoring system in 2018).
After two more seasons, I would not be surprised to see this list consist of only Texas and Stanford.
In honor of
@_delconte
's birthday and an incredibly successful season on the field, here is the score sheet for the
@TexasLonghorns
. Congratulations to all the coaches, players and staff.
#HookEm
These are fun for me to do. To be clear, I'll do a comparison between any two schools - Texas doesn't have to be involved.
Wanna dunk on your rival? Let me know and I can run the numbers.
Texas and LSU compete in 19 of the same sports. LSU has W gym and beach VB. Texas has rowing (will have beach VB next year).
In the 19 shared sports:
Texas: 1305
LSU: 834
I take any and all requests
The
@TexasSoftball
team dominates their regional and advances to the super regional round, potentially facing off against rival Texas A&M.
Stanford softball getting started now, needing 1 more win to advance as well.
Kyle not only helped set up my graphics but also helped get my content out to followers.
In a world of “look at me”, Kyle has done a lot to shine his spotlight on others.
The
@TexasWBB
and
@StanfordWBB
teams both advance to the sweet 16 and are now only 1 game away from a potential elite 8 face off.
64 points earned by both teams currently. Increases to 74 with a sweet 16 win. Beyond that wins are worth 83, 90 and then 100 points.
The Commonwealth Clash - Directors' Cup Edition
Virginia and Virginia Tech compete in 22 of the same sports. Virginia has Field Hockey, M Lax and Rowing teams that VT does not.
In the 22 common sports:
Virginia - 984.75
Virginia Tech - 499.25
Under the old scoring system (top 10 Men’s sport plus top 10 Women’s sports) Stanford has only been beat in the cup’s first year, 1993.
Texas has 0 cup wins under that system but this year, Texas has a chance to beat Stanford even under the old scoring system.
The
@TexasMGolf
team finishes in 13th place overall and scores 63 points. They were expected to score 72.75 points.
Updated scoring predictions:
@TexasLonghorns
- 1384.5
@GoStanford
- 1302.75
An opening game regional win for
@TexasBaseball
increases their points scored to 37.5. This matches their expected score as a 3 seed.
A chance to increase that mark to 50 points tomorrow night with a match up against rival Texas A&M.
A result with big
#directorscup
implications as
@OleMissWBB
takes down 1 seed
@StanfordWBB
in the round of 32.
Stanford will score 50 points instead of the expected 83-100 pts.
Also potentially allows
@TexasWBB
an easier path to the elite 8. Could be a big swing.
It took 10 months of competition to decide the winner of the Directors' Cup but you can watch the scoring play out in just 30 seconds.
Watch how teams move up and down with each sport contested. The late charge by Texas is my personal favorite part.
What do you notice?
A huge win by
#2
ranked individual Eliot Spizzirri (
@espizz11
) over the
#1
ranked player in the nation helps
@TexasMTN
advance to the final 4.
Their points scored increase from 73 to 83.
I forgot how days work earlier,
@StanfordWTennis
plays tomorrow morning.
The
@GoStanford
Cardinal become the first team to break the 1000 pt mark and extend their overall lead to almost 300 points.
2/3 of the season is complete with some major fireworks yet to come.
If Stanford baseball and softball are unable to advance further, the predicted finish would be:
@GoStanford
- 1376
@TexasLonghorns
- 1372
Texas would need to advance to the
#CWS
, gaining 9 additional points or would need track results to fall in their favor.
A new college athletics season has kicked off and I’m back.
Ready to keep y’all updated with all things Directors Cup and new this year, the SEC All Sports Trophy!
