    Also, you can think of 6-7 position players that started a game; or just appeared? Because I can’t think of starters, unless they were a legit two-way player, which JT is not in college. 

    JT has started 1 game and pitched 1 2/3 inning.

    Ty Marlow, Andy Maguire, Brandon Belt, Kacy Clemens, Jake McKenzie,  and more weren’t pitching recruits.

    Oh good, I was worried Jalin Flores would be our starting pitcher tonight.

    I don’t know why JT pitching was so controversial. I can think of 6-7 fielders that also pitched at Texas. It’s not a Pierce thing.

    If anyone for a second thinks Schlossnagle is leaving there and what they have going to come here, you are losing your mind faster than David Pierce.

    He has them in third place in the SEC. That’s great!

    I haven't been following the team as closely this year so can someone succinctly explain why everyone is so up in arms against Pierce? Seems like he has been good other than this year. 3 CWS appearance, pretty much always top 10.

    No one on here will give you a good answer to that.  This pitching staff blows. But people forget real fast about the 2020 pitching staff under Pierce.  Elder, Madden, Hanson, Stevens… That was a CWS staff.

  5. RPI Needs report updates at 8:30am each day. Before the win yesterday, here was the roadmap.

    RPI matters more than number of wins. We pretty much have to get in the 40’s of RPI which is going to require more than 31 wins with how things currently look. Probably closer to 33-34 wins. 19 games left including today, which would mean a 12-7/13-6 finish.

    All of our RPI strength is out in front of us. Series against 10, 23, 24, and 35. Half of those on the road. The environment is there.
