  1. Parkland and uvalde insufficient. Instructions unclear. Need more examples to know FOR SURE that the only correct strategy is to relentlessly push. I physically can’t understand how a police officer can enter this sort of situation and think anything other than “I’m about to be a hero” and move forward with urgency and confidence, Nashville style.
  2. Agreed, but if the data is truly compelling, you normalize for population. regardless brisket brings up a good point, covid definitely fucked us up
  3. Can we get per capita numbers? Any time raw numbers are presented regarding a population, I’m assuming the source is either dumb or lying
  4. Obligatory, user name checks out / that should buff out
  5. I think he’s saying aggy was being bad sports in what became a blowout, and he predicts, perhaps even hopes, they will not win the SEC or CWS. I turned it off after the E7 so I donno
  6. You just said Augie should’ve been able to coach here until the day he died and then said anything less than national championship expectations is complacency. How are you not calling for Augie’s head after 2013?
  7. Counterpoint: Augie’s 1st 6 seasons: 2 CWS (1 championship), 2 missed tournaments.. regardless of the cause or duration of decline, going back to 2006 might even be generous. The players we’re recruiting weren’t alive when won our last national title.
  8. 2006-2008 we were still basking in the warm glow of the championships and playing at a consistently high level. 2014 and 2021 were the ones that hurt me the most because we’ve wandered in the wilderness and the team was so insanely close to dog piling in Omaha.
  9. this is a romanticized recollection of Augie. Starting the year after his last championship… 2006: 41-21, B12 champs, lost in Austin Regional 2007: 46-17, B12 champs, lost in Austin Regional (at Dell) 2008: 38-22, 5th in B12, lost in Rice Regional 2009: 50-16-1, B12 champs, CWS, National Runner up (LSU) 2010: 50-13, B12 champs, lost in Austin Supers (TCU) 2011: 49-19, B12 champs, CWS (0-2) 2012: 30-22, 3rd in B12, failed to make NCAA Tourney 2013: 27-24, LAST in B12, failed to make NCAA Tourney 2014: 46-21, 5th in B12, CWS, finished ~3rd 2015: 30-27, 5th in B12, lost in Dallas Baptist regional 2016: 25-32, 7th in B12, failed to make NCAA Tourney So in Augie’s final 11 seasons, we missed the tournament 3 times and reached the CWS 3 times. David Pierce’s 7 seasons (6 if you remove the covid year we started 14-3) have produced 3 CWS appearances and he’s missed the tournament once. Claiming DP isn’t meeting our standard is ignorant and arguably fucking regarded. Like, a brief review of our last 20 years of results should probably be required before people post here.
  10. If this is accepted practice why the fuck don’t we do it? Between injuries, head cases, and busts, if you want an elite group of players you need to start with a ton of dudes
  11. What were DP’s prior classes ranked prior to the draft? Is there reason to believe these next 2 classes won’t be gutted by the draft?
  12. Too soon? Absolutely. Revisit if we don’t make the tournament. Do not melt down if we lose to aggy.
  13. 14-11? Fucking A. Guess it’s TBD if our pitching is any better than last year
  14. Fuck china and fuck the Mexican cartels
  15. Couldn’t watch or listen to the game. Just saw the final score. My condolences to those of you that suffered through that
  16. Exactly. It’s so easy to directly improve the program that being hyper negative this early in a season really comes across as pathetic bitching from the poors.
  17. Countless examples in this thread of why you can’t draw conclusions, good or bad, from a series, let alone a single game… the only thing we need to do as a program is improve our NIL.
