  1. Credit to Czech for staying focused.
  2. Great game, Sophia !
  3. May be tough to eliminate. Can only assume the horn is endorsed by Marc and the OccupyLF crowd. Maybe a group should talk to Marc.
  4. I may have spoken too soon. Ok St routed by LSU 10-2. Miranda started 3.1 IP/3R/4BB/2K/65 pitches
  5. https://mygoodstream.pw/espn/espn3.php?id=8e7af67c-a708-483f-adb5-77c5a74531f7&co=jm
  6. 1st out on an attempted steal down 4 runs. Terrible !
  7. He has a .771 overall win percentage, every team has advanced to the super regionals. 5 CWS appearances but teams have never advanced beyond semifinals. Reports were he signed a 5 year contract which would expire in '23. not sure, I think salary is about 450K. Will be interesting to see if he wants to face the SEC gauntlet, though I believe he is in the top 5 or 10 salary wise. He seems to be the type always looking for opportunities. Previously, he had outstanding assistants (Jimmy Kolaitis, Chelsea Spencer) and that may be showing. Singleton seems to be a good hitting coach but not sure why the other asst (Megan Bartlett) was hired. Midwest connections, not sure of her forte other than being a ND grad with a J.D. from Northern Illinois. tl:dr; No idea
  8. Parker in LF ? And miscommunication on a popup. You be You, Mike. 🙄
  9. Why do you think he went the transfer route ? Lack of talent, prev committed to other schools, failure to recruit, all of the above ? Simpson appears to be the 2nd best pitcher behind Dolcini. She has alot to learn but awesome pitch repertoire.
  10. 6:30 Check the game thread tonight. Someone may post a link.
  11. Oh noooooo, you're back ! 🙂 Look forward to your posts.
  12. Cantu has never played the outfield. lB, 3B, DP at Tech. Can't recall if she played OF here last year. Example of offense over defense. That low liner in the 2d inn was very catchable. Why save Dolcini for #25 Auburn vs #6 Florida St. Don't anyone jump, old cliche "It is a marathon, not a sprint"
  13. Ok St ace Kelly Maxwell pitched a 1 hit shutout vs Michigan. 4-0 Ok St. Ok St is tough.
  14. Cam Williams may not have received the credit he deserved for providing leadership and maturity to a young team. He loved Texas and played like he loved Texas. I will miss him.
  15. https://www.hookem.com/story/analysis/podcast/2022/02/17/texas-baseball-coach-david-pierce-discusses-2022-season/6831408001/ Today's podcast with Pierce discussing opening game/season. Good insight on the pitching staff and other questions. Approx 22-25 minutes.
  16. Burbank transferred to San Jac after 1 year for PT. Transferred to Rice to play with is younger brother (infielder). Starter for SanJac, good stats. NJCAA
  17. McNeese hosted a tournament last weekend and went 5-0 against UNT, Tulsa, UAB, and Texas Southern (2). Had 3 shutouts. Pretty solid club, made regionals last year at 35-26. Clearwater games will be televised. Good to see college softball getting its due. (sry for large print, copied from schedule)
  18. siap: The Cardinals have their own concerns about Murray, with sources describing the 2019 No. 1 overall pick as self-centered, immature and someone who points fingers. Arizona coach Kliff Kingsbury is said to be self-scouting where he can provide better alternatives to help Murray, according to sources. Meanwhile, select veterans on the team hope to reach out to Murray on how the 24-year-old can better handle adversity, sources said. Despite the acrimony, the Cardinals expect things to calm down and for Murray to be their quarterback of the present and future. https://sports.yahoo.com/amid-reported-friction-with-kyler-murray-cardinals-say-they-have-high-regard-for-franchise-qb-203902387.html
  19. Ordered this AM. $20 for GA (yikes !, inflation) up from about $12.
  20. https://twitter.com/texascollegebsb - Texas College Baseball twitter is a neat little site that has info on all college teams in Texas. Good publicity for the smaller schools. - Lance Berkman makes his college head coaching debut this weekend as Houston Baptist hosts Rutgers. Host Rice, 23 Feb, visit Texas, 3 May. 14-38 last year. Tough schedule, play most of the P5 schools in Texas. D1, Southland Conf, aggy Corpus, McNeese, Incarnate Word and that bunch. https://hbuhuskies.com/sports/baseball/schedule
  21. 🙂 No, want Chelsea Spencer back and to not finish in last place in B12 defensive stats. We had 8 errors in 3 games last year vs OU at the debacle in Norman.
  22. https://txstatebobcats.evenue.net/cgi-bin/ncommerce3/SEGetEventInfo?ticketCode=GS:TXST:BS22:BS08:&linkID=txstate&RSRC=SIDEARM&RDAT=sgl&_ga= Texas St game in San Marcos, 8 Mar, 6PM. Tickets go on sale Tuesday @ 9AM. Pre pandemic this was always a sellout with SRO. Tickets go fast. Always a good game, nice venue, and Texas St does a great job of hosting. Short trip for those who may not have the opportunity to see the team in an "away" atmosphere.
  23. https://www.statesman.com/story/sports/college/baseball/2022/02/03/texas-college-baseball-picked-no-1-preseason-coaches-poll/6642249001/ If you did not see, the above article and excerpts were previously posted. Gives a cursory summary. Hopefully, more info this week.
  24. And 7 HR's and 3 shutouts. That is Mike White softball, pitching and offense over defense. He seems to rotate players based on their hitting streak. Can get away with that in the outfield, but not the infield. At first I thought his intent was to solidify a lineup, but he seems to do it all year. Could be why he has never won it all. We will see what this year brings.
  25. Happy 91st birthday, Gus ! Thanks !
