  1. Challenge: how many dirt balls can LBJ throw once he gets to two strikes
  2. LBJ throws the most non-competitive 2-strike pitches I’ve ever seen
  3. TCU starter was up to 100 last week against Tech. True freshman who has battled some injury issues.
  4. 3 freshman, 4 sophomores, 1 redshirt junior and a redshirt senior. Sucks that a couple of those sophomores will be playing professional baseball in a few months.
  5. Didn’t watch one second of the A&M spring game but someone on one of the 9.95 sites posted the drive chart. I’m sure offensive recruits were super impressed. 1st drive: punt 2nd drive: FG 3rd drive: punt 4th drive: punt 5th drive:: punt 6th drive: punt 7th drive: Rushing TD (Le'Veon Moss after a 4th down conversion ON THEIR OWN 35.) 8th drive: punt 9th drive: punt 10th drive: punt 11th drive: Passing TD (Marcell Reed to Noah Thomas) - - - 12th drive: punt 13th drive: Passing TD (Marcell Reed to Noah Thomas) 14th drive: punt 15th drive: fumble 16th drive: punt 17th drive: Rushing TD (Reuben Owens) 18th drive: time expired
  6. I thought TCU wouldn’t be as good as many national guys hyped them up to be, but even I didn’t see them being 8-12 at this point. The offensive falloff from last year is staggering.
  7. What is the new coach going to think when he learns his best returning pitcher is a guy who throws 85
  8. Good thing we have all these great arms at our disposal for 14 innings tomorrow
  9. 0-2 count with 2 outs in a tough left on left matchup. I kinda see why but considering we had just got a couple of 2-strikes I wouldn’t have pushed the envelope.
  10. Right down the middle. Literally. And we get the make up call
  11. Because he’s doing such great things with a team that was picked to win the league. Beating this Texas team is the highlight of their season so far.
  12. Outside of Grubbs and Whitehead, is there one arm on this staff we would be happy to see return next year with the new coach? Boehm will get drafted. I guess maybe Tumis and Hamilton but there are probably 100 guys just like them in the portal every year.
  13. Porter Brown fooled us all last year
  14. Number of earned runs we’ve scored off Friday night guys this year 0 1 0 11 3 1 3 4 1 0
  15. We are allowed to win Friday games. It’s in the rulebook I swear.
  16. You’d think after the first 60 times this season we got burned with our second baseman alignment we would shade him over a tad. But nope.
  17. They would move tomorrow's game up before wanting to do a doubleheader. A doubleheader is always a last resort in conference play. With the game being a national ESPN broadcast instead of the usual LHN, there are probably a few more hoops to jump through if they want to move it.
  18. His regression is almost as perplexing as LBJ's. His batting average against has jumped almost 100 points this year.
  19. That tweet is meant to be sarcasm for the stupid extension they gave Jimbo
  20. I didn't even realize he ended up at Southern Illinois last season. Wasn't there speculation that he was going into the agency world when he left Texas or something of that sort? It always felt a little fishy, especially when he left right around when the findings from the NCAA infractions case against Kansas were set to be released.
  21. He turned down USC because that job isn't what it once was, and they are stuck in the Stone Age in several areas, including facilities. Tulo has told people he wants to be a college head coach. Based on my understanding, even in the "year off" he took last year, he was still around the program and coming up to the Disch to help out. I'm sure part of the thinking for re-joining the staff this year was to make sure he stayed involved and around the game in an official capacity as he looked for his next opportunity.
  22. Tulo's name would certainly hold a lot of weight on the recruiting trail and in the portal. And flipping this roster is going to be important. Pretty much every player and recruit who has interacted with him at Texas has great things to say. His assistant hires would obviously be huge as someone who hasn't been a head coach. Still, I think it says something that he wants to be a head coach and continues to be around the silly game of college baseball after making almost $100 million playing the game professionally. Most guys aren't wired that way. Just my .02.
