  1. The double first base was used in last year's SEC Tournament. The purpose of the double first base is to reduce collisions between the defense and the batter-runner at first base. It has been utilized in a number of SEC non-conference contests this season. Guidelines for using the double first base, as prescribed under NCAA playing rules, includes: A batted ball hitting or bounding over the white portion of the bag is a fair ball. A batted ball hitting or bounding over the colored (orange or green) bag without first touching or bounding over the white section is foul. When an initial play is being made on the batter-runner at first base, the defense must use the white section of the double base and the batter-runner must use the colored base except in the case of a dropped third strike. After a dropped third strike, if the fielder is drawn to the side of the colored base, the runner would go the white base and the fielder to the colored base. On a dropped third strike, the fielder and batter-runner may touch either the white or colored base. If there is a play on the batter-runner and the batter-runner touches only the white portion of the double base and the defense appeals prior to the batter-runner returning to first base, it is treated the same as missing the base. Penalty: Batter-runner is out. On extra-base hits or other balls hit to the outfield when there is no chance for a play to be made at the double base, the batter-runner may touch either the white or colored section of the base. Should, however, the batter-runner reach and go beyond first base, they may only return to the white section of the base. Once the batter-runner reaches first base, they shall then use only the white base. https://www.secsports.com/news/2024/05/double-first-base-to-be-utilized-for-2024-sec-baseball-tournament
  2. Shout out to TTT for posting previews for each game.
  3. If not posted, a look at Spencer. Like his delivery.
  4. Could that have been the play where the ball is snapped to Blue and it hit Arch's leg ?
  5. https://the.streameast.app/cfb/streams2 There may be other links posted closer to game time in the game thread.
  6. Looking at the Cal roster, Sterlin Gilbert is the passing game coordinator. He and the Cal OC were together at Tulsa.
  7. Head coach Todd Whiting was on Schloss's staff at TCU and his ace recruiter. Clay Van Hook and Woody Williams (analyst to pitching coach) are first year assts. Whiting may be on the hot seat at his alma mater after 14 years. I miss playing Rice regardless of their recent decline. Even going there, Reckling is such a nice venue.
  8. Especially after Cook's comments after last year's championship game. https://brobible.com/sports/article/nebraska-volleyball-texas-john-cook-transfer-roster/
  9. UConn @ Notre Dame, tonight, 6PM, ESPN. Should be a good one. Will see how Geno schemes for Hidalgo and Miles. Edit: Check your listing, not sure if 7PM or 6PM.
  10. Much respect for Courtney Day, wish her the best at Arkansas. Texas grad in Spring '23, accepted her team role, many key hits and valuable contributions, '22 WCWS All Tournament Team. She left Ole Miss prior to the '24 season. Ole Miss culture does not have a good rep if that was a reason.

"That's my bestie", said Booker.
  12. Voodc Player Link for 2nd half if needed. Late to the party
