  1. Travel curfew. Both these teams took a bus so I can’t imagine there is a curfew.
  2. When Howard loses it, it goes south fast
  3. First Borba appearance of the season coming up?
  4. I can see why Ole Miss was so bad last year when Saunier was a weekend starter
  5. Sure would be nice if Farmer wasn’t batting third
  6. Flores is ready to see Dartmouth pitching
  7. Pierce would 100% be bunting here.
  8. I’m surprised Belyeu wasn’t sent home on the ball that got stuck down the line.
  9. We’ll see what happens as more new players enter the program, but it just feels like part of the Tulo hitting approach is sacrificing some swing and miss for power and putting the ball in gaps. Been that way all 4 years he has been the hitting coach. The lack of walks this weekend is going to drive Schloss crazy. That is one of the things his A&M teams lived on.
  10. Hopefully they get Bing an inning on Tuesday. He is better than that. Had to be first game jitters.
  11. That was somewhat jarring for a guy who was all about command/control.
  12. No shot we are starting at 6:30
  13. Well the ESPN app had the score flipped so this comment sounds a little dumber. Still think Ole Miss is a borderline tournament team and Bianco needs success this year.
  14. Ole Miss is going to have a new coach in about 3 months
  15. Louisville up 8-1 on Arizona
  16. The new trend is hitting your best all-around guy second in the order, right? Conventional wisdom says you want them to get as many AB’s as possible. I wonder if Belyeu could end up there at some point this year. The small ball game under Augie and to a lesser extent under Pierce meant we usually had a guy who could bunt and handle the bat well in the 2 spot.
  17. Interested to see Bing tonight. Similar profile to Harrison. 88-90ish, strike thrower. Only 12 walks in 70 innings last year.
  18. Name mentioned by Bobby this morning. Previously worked with Flood. https://huskers.com/sports/football/roster/season/2024/staff/ej-barthel
  19. He wants a high OBP guy up there with some pop. He had Grahovac lead off for A&M much of last year. The only other options that make sense are Mendoza (13 walks all last season), Winfield (strikeout prone) and Rodriguez (freshman). I guess maybe Farmer too but small sample size. Rodriguez seems like an obvious choice once he has some more AB’s under him if he shows he can handle it and cut down on the swing and miss.
  20. Bing or Volantis is my guess for tomorrow. I think they will ease Grubbs back in a midweek game.
  21. Max Weiner for president. Two games in and I already love this guy more than I did 6 months ago.
  22. No strikeout that inning. Progress
  23. I got the count at 12 straight at MLB stadiums and 8 straight at globe life. 2022 Big 12 championship- L to OU 2023 opening weekend- 3 L’s 2023 Big 12 tournament- 2 L’s 2024 Houston tournament- 3 L’s 2024 Big 12 tournament- 2 L’s Last night
  24. Yeah I get what he was trying to say but not something I would say after a loss like that.
  25. Listening to what Schloss said pregame and postgame on the radio and you can tell he is not thrilled that he inherited this tournament on the schedule. Said Texas isn’t afraid to play anyone but we should always be opening at home in basically a tuneup series and that “we’ll see what he is talking about after this first year in the SEC”. Then said after the game that we “didn’t open with some team up north who hasn’t been outside in months.” He definitely doesn’t sugarcoat much.
