@BobBallouSports I love Skip. But why should Longhorns pull for the team whose winning would most negatively impact our recruiting—particularly when it’s a heated rival? Do you think OU pulled for Texas when OU alum Darrell Royal took the Texas job?
@HornSports@am1300thezone Hasn’t Schloss earned the right to say, or not, what he wants about his players? Guy came in and won the SEC his 1st year. 2nd year, was one of the last 5 teams playing. Has taken 3 different schools to Omaha. Left our rival to coach here. He has the floor.
@OccupyLF If you’re one of the last five teams playing, you had a great season. The deeper you get in the postseason, the better pitching (and coaching) you face, which exposes your hitting weaknesses. Both Texas and Georgia experienced that this week.
Today we are announcing our $1B Series C, but money isn’t the story. The story is what we’ll do with it, and the scale of the challenge ahead.
Our mission isn’t constrained by capital, supply, or demand. It’s constrained by talent. To build America’s next great power company, we need the engineers, operators, and creatives ready to take on the challenge to join us.
Power is the most important product in the world. It runs through everything: our homes, hospitals, schools, factories, and future. And the grid that delivers it is breaking.
At Base, we’re building the future of power so human progress can accelerate. In the past two years, we’ve grown from an idea into one of the fastest growing energy companies in America.
Now we’re entering a new phase of growth. Our first manufacturing site is rising in the heart of Austin, inside the former Austin American-Statesman printing press. Here we’ll build our own hardware to meet surging demand and scale nationwide. This is a key step in putting a battery on every home in the country.
Few teams get to say their work powers human progress. We do. With a billion dollars of fuel, our next wave of growth will be defined not by capital, but by people who choose to step up, take ownership, and build the next great American power company.
The old system is breaking. Come build the new one.
Our Series C was led by Addition, with participation from both new and existing investors including Trust Ventures, Valor Equity Partners, Thrive Capital, Lightspeed, Andreessen Horowitz, Altimeter, StepStone, Elad Gil, 137 Ventures, Terrain, Waybury, Ribbit, CapitalG, Spark, BOND, Lowercarbon, Avenir, Glade Brook, Positive Sum, and 1789.
@Masyn0Winn@neal13@KP_Omaha Glazed? Or every year since COVID the CWS cship has been 2 teams playing each other who are currently in the SEC… This year the NCAA arranged the teams so only one of LSU-Arky-Tenn could make the final
@JevanWBTW 1983 Texas Longhorns went 66-14 and were 24-0 in conference. Outscored postseason opponents 61-23.
1995 Cal St-Fullerton went 57-9.
1982 Texas Longhorns went 59-6.
@mkerrhardy@mkerrhardy should have signed up with @basepowerco
We'll lower your power bills and keep the AC running this summer for a fraction of the cost of that generator
