  1. Apparently a 247 reporter tweeted this then deleted it. Not sure if it’s because it’s not true or Texas didn’t want it out there.
  2. Sure wish we had a guy like Boehm last year. May have been an Omaha team.
  3. These dudes with 8 ERA’s come in pumping 97
  4. Belyeu, Kennedy and Gasparino should all be ready to hit in the SEC next year. I guess maybe you could throw Schuessler in there because all he does is put together good AB’s. Now the rest of the team…..
  5. Kennedy is starting to figure it out. He’ll be a good one next year.
  6. This team swings and anything and everything when in 2-0 and 3-1 counts
  7. You hold up on the bobbled slow roller but go on the hard hit right at the SS. Sounds about right.
  8. Dre is a one inning guy. Should have gone straight to Boehm.
  9. So it sounds like OU is taking the NIL approach of 'let's just push all our chips in for one player'. I guess in their defense that is probably their best approach in a sport like basketball that probably gets very little support.
  10. Trilly is referring to that Trilly Donovan twitter account that has a lot of inside info
  11. My understanding was the free year counted as the redshirt year if you had not already used your redshirt. So if you were a true freshman for the 2020-2021 season, you could play like normal and would enter the next season as a redshirt freshman with 4 years remaining to play 4 seasons. So this should be the last batch of guys using the extra year.
  12. This is the last year. Shedrick was a freshman when they got the “free” year.
  13. Was in the thread last night discussing how and why the coach is getting fired. Sorry to burst your bubble.
  14. Being ranked was never a stretch, especially with Mercer and Storm on the roster. The core of JT, Powell, Brown being back set a solid floor offensively. I think everyone here thought LBJ, Witt and Hurley set a good floor with the staff. None of us expected Hurley to be Superman but it wasn’t much to expect him to be a decent Sunday/midweek guy. I was listening to a Jay Johnson interview the other day and he said something like “when you hit bumps in the road, your best players need to be your best players to get you through”. And I think that sums this thing up well. Think about how executed we were to get LBJ, Witt, Brown, Powell all back. There have been several times this year where any of those 4 could have lifted this thing up and it’s mostly been a lot of nothing.
  15. Give me a fucking break. No one is happy with what we are watching but stop with the shock value statements like we would go 0-30.
  16. Nah. This was a preseason top 20 man. A lot of shit went wrong, some of it bad luck and some of it self inflicted, but it was never supposed to be a lame duck season. It was supposed to be LBJ and Witt anchoring the rotation with Porter Brown hitting 20 bombs in the heart of the order with Powell and JT ahead of him on base and Will Mercer getting 10 saves, all of which seemed realistic in January.
  17. It’s over man. He has very few people in his corner and has used all his get out of jail free cards. His best hope was going on a postseason run but this team ain’t making the postseason as things currently stand.
  18. The hope 3-4 weeks ago was there were games we hit really well and games we pitched relatively well but they never seemed to be at the same time. Haven’t done either well for weeks now.
  19. This guy who entered was scheduled to start the game tomorrow
  20. That’s on the Houston staff for not seeing him grab his elbow after the strikeout. Let him throw another pitch.
  21. Should have been a 2-run homer and would have been if the roles were reversed for that review.
