  1. He has some crazy stuff if he could find the zone. The 2 seamer and slider have so much movement
  2. Feels like every hbp comes in 2 strike count
  3. They celebrated like they won it all yesterday. Get used to it
  4. How did we get so bad at doubles this year? Figured that would be an automatic point pretty much all year
  5. 2 years ago to the weekend was Witt’s scratched start vs UCLA in Houston where he was shut down before surgery. I’ve been as pessimistic as can be about his return, but it was great to see him in a high leverage situation last night. He is the single biggest ceiling raiser for this team if he can keep progressing.
  6. This isn’t new. We were ranked #1 2 years ago and they still dwarfed us in Houston. Arkansas dwarfs us in Arlington. We’re always under-represented in Omaha. The majority of orange in Omaha is player parents. It’s okay to admit that there’s a handful of SEC programs with significantly larger and more loyal baseball fanbases than ours. Im excited for the SEC move to wake some people up and change that.
  7. We’ve been an Omaha losers bracket level program for 8 years. Which is fine, better than it was the 8 years before that. Pierce has built flawed rosters and coached them up well. We see an elite arm 3-4 times a year and lose miserably. Win most of the others. The horribly recruiting over the past few years looks to be reversing course. Hitting big on this next class and giving them time to mature is how the program takes the next step. Until then, we’ll still be in the mix to host postseason baseball every year
  8. Shugart got the save in the regional final, yep. Couple huge Ks. That month of baseball was some of my favorite ever. The series win at Tech (3 Kody HRs). The sweep vs TCU to win the conference (3 Kody HRs) on the last weekend of the regular season. The regional win (2 Kody HRs vs Atm). The supers comeback (3 Kody HRs). I can’t seem to remember what happened after that…
  9. I’d probably take the 2022 team over this one, especially before the Witt scratch in Houston. We were undefeated. Pete had just out-dueled Burns. Stevens had an elite start vs LSU. Witt was 2-0 I said it before, but the Houston/Arlington split plays so much into how non-conference Feb/March is perceived. In even years, we get a few weekends to get in a groove and February feels great. Odd years we get thrashed opening weekend and it makes Pierce look like a genius when the team figures it out down the line.
  10. If we dick around with Harrison/Witt for too long that could be an L. They went into Gainesville and won on a Friday night. Mixed bag vs Coog. Seem to have some big bats. They haven’t played a midweek yet so no clue how their pitching is
  11. It’ll be interesting to see if Thatcher Hurd gets the ball on Friday. That game feels winnable. Vandy looks meh. T State is getting humbled this weekend. Anything less than 2-1 would be a failure
  12. The LHN twitter account made it clear that their hands are tied. Likely an ESPN contract thing
  13. So we have the capability to stream the game on espn+ while waiting for the women’s tennis dual to finish, but not today? Dumb asses
  14. This would be shockingly stupid. I’m fine with giving the softball team air time, but to not stream the baseball game live when they have the capability would be insanity
  15. That feels like it has to be Jack's last AB for a while. No point waiting for him to find it if we can do the same with Sanders/Borba
  16. Like our medical staff should start recommending different surgeons
  17. What an outing. 6IP, 0ER, 4H, 1BB, 1 batter hit, 1 elbow pad grazed.
  18. Nick, Eric, Dondreone. What a family
