  1. NEVER FORGET
  2. Pierce has been there with Tulane and Rice, maybe as asst at Houston.
  3. First few seconds of below clip. Has a somewhat odd arm angle, hides the ball well, probably throws alot of soft stuff. ECU may not want him going thru the lineup more than twice. The 66K - 15 walk ratio is very good but no comparison to Pete at 112 - 18 (amazing).
  4. It was known she would never go to another school. "Just happened" comes from alot of hard work from an early age. Blair's youth private pitching coach (Andy, can't recall his last name) was Connie's asst coach when the program began with club ball in 1996. In fairness to Kim, Connie rode Blaire for 4 years for what seemed to be the development detriment of others. But Kim was also an outstanding fielder and hitter, one of my all time favs. Check the rise ball and movement, pitching on the black, just like Cat. Hope we get that tonight. But enough of history, 4 hrs to game time. I had trouble sleeping last night.
  5. https://www.surlyhorns.com/board/topic/654-android-thread/#comment-17303 https://www.surlyhorns.com/board/topic/4770-apple-iphone-thread/ Check the above threads.
  6. Congrats on a great season ! Do you think Trout will be a Baylor candidate ? Sharp guy !
  7. Props to Mia Scott. Watched a replay this morning. During the 5th inning rally, she "baited" that throw to second from Busby the cutoff by staying off the bag. She had Busby's attention all the way as Busby never checked Whitaker's progress. Great softball IQ.
  8. Hoping for the next Gasso. Ross Bjork is a pretty savvy AD. He missed on a splash hire but likely did his homework.
  9. Congrats to everyone, including the great posts here ! Mike White is reminiscent of Augie. Disappointments during the regular season but come playoff time you don’t want to play his team. He lives for this - it’s his life !
  10. AAS article about incoming infielder Leighann Goode and SA O'Connor winning State yesterday. (excerpts) In the victory, Goode went 2-for-4 with an RBI single. She also scored a run and stole two bases. A shortstop and leadoff hitter, Goode hit .500 over her two games at this weekend's state tournament. Goode earned a spot on the Class 6A all-tournament team. When Goode signed with Texas this past November, she was rated by Softball America as the No. 40 recruit in her class. Extra Inning Softball evaluated Goode as a top-20 prospect and top-three infielder. "A Texas native, Leighann is a talented, five-tool athlete who can play infield or outfield with equal ability," Texas coach Mike White said. "We see Leighann contributing to our team immediately and over the years to come." Goode joins Citlaly Gutierrez as the 2022 Texas recruits who have won a state title at McCombs Field. Last year, Gutierrez led Stamford to the Class 2A title. Katie Cimusz (Humble Atascocita) and Sophia Simpson (Barbers Hill) are the current Longhorns who won state championships while attending Texas high schools. https://www.statesman.com/story/sports/2022/06/05/texas-softball-signee-leighann-goode-wins-state-title-mccombs-field/7523574001/
  11. Evidentlly. I do remember that being discussed during her transfer.
  12. And that is what we need to do - recruit Calif which has overall superior talent. Gasso is from Calif, many connections. We never stood a chance with Coleman vs OU. She is from The Colony, Mom is a high school coach and Dad is a travel ball coach. (they were, not sure if active) All those kids from North Dallas have been OU brainwashed. Even aggy and Baylor have written off North Dallas to concentrate on Houston with us. Tech gets a couple of leftovers. But hopefully this CWS appearance will be the beginning. Edit: Let's hope OKSt can win this WCWS if we don't.

  15. Re: Trautwein Just noticed she started game 1 at the WCWS. 4.2 with 88 pitches but a day of rest. They may stick with her due to experience vs the soph May.
  16. OU went with Trautwein vs aggy in the 1-0 game in the Regional and the first game of the SR vs UCF. Agree, great improvement. Leighann Goode, Texas signee shortstop is in town this weekend with San Antonio O'Connor for the State Tournament. Read she played travel ball with Scott and Simpson. Finals may be televised if a listing can be found.
  17. Does the NCAA still drug test during championship tournaments ? Of course, if prescribed adderall is legal. Exactly ! Hunter Yurachek is a good AD. The fan attendance was indicative of their support. He doesn't want to let that go. Also, Deifel and her husband have young children. Family has to be considered. But admittedly, with say a 500K plus salary and aggy facilities/recruiting base she may have to pause to give thought.
  18. https://weather.com/weather/hourbyhour/l/2f1fc1a42db8ce5905c09e81e950aa8490a03ccf3fc0531201aa36121203afbf Wet day in OKC, AM showers Thurs supposed to clear by game time. Doubt if they were able to take infield. If we play clean, like our chances.
  19. https://www.si.com/college/clemson/baseball/whos-next-at-clemson-an-early-look-at-candidates-to-replace-monte-lee Above article gives list of possible candidates for Clemson. One is Cliff Godwin, East Carolina, which could prove to be a distraction for them if we meet in a SR.
  20. Kody looks real confident at the plate. Not chasing, seeing pitches well.

  24. All-session tickets will go on sale Wednesday, June 1 at 9 a.m. CT at TexasSports.com/Tickets. If available, single-session tickets will go on sale Friday, June 3 at 9 a.m. CT. The Friday time seems late considering 1PM game start. Best to confirm with ticket office at 512-471-3333. https://texassports.com/news/2022/5/30/baseball-ncaa-announces-austin-regional-participants.aspx
  25. Sometimes having faith in a guy is borne and his confidence grows in having well established expectations/roles. Well said @Had Enough. Surprisingly, we lead the B12 in ERA. Kyle Peterson, ESPN, said pitching is down across the NCAA this year. That said, pitchers need to be developed and shown confidence. Frank Anderson has Tennessee at 2.37. Wow ! https://big12sports.com/stats.aspx?path=baseball&year=2022 https://www.ncaa.com/stats/baseball/d1/current/team/211
