  1. Did Bing just throw five perfect innings? He gave up a sac fly, but the run was attributed to Rerick, right? Only lightly watching.
  2. And, Liberty leads #11 Wake Forest 11-8, T9 Mercer leads #5 FSU 6-0, T5
  3. Is there precedent for this? I don’t remember an external hire in college sports starting in the middle of a season before.
  4. We’re coming for y’all 😉
  5. Wow…
  6. I don’t think so. They’re not going to pitch a guy in two back-to-back games (meaning a double header the same day. Not two consecutive games on different days).
  7. I think Grubbs is probably starting/being saved for game two.
  8. Probably not.
  9. Definitely agree with you. I wasn't really considering the first part of your statement re: Terry going somewhere else and killing it; just what happens at Texas. But yes, Terry going elsewhere killing it and Texas performing poorly would be a real kick in the nuts. I doubt that complete scenario plays out though.
  10. I don't think the two are necessarily related. A bad hire is a bad hire. Regardless of the hire, it looks like Texas should move on from RT. You can make the right decision in looking for a different coach but get the hire wrong. That's how I would look at it, anyways. That's why I hope there's no uncertainly with it. Go pay for a proven name. Let there be no ambiguity about the decision.
  11. The optimistic take on what you said is that this is often how Tre works.
  12. I have to believe the decision (to let him go or retain him) is already made. Save for a Sweet Sixteen run, he's likely gone. However, if Texas makes the tournament and advances in any fashion, I'll believe it when I see it that a coach who wins a tournament game in every season of his tenure will be let go. Then again, if the upgrade is so obvious, I could be wrong.
  13. Here's the OTF version:
  14. Looks like Pico's stuff is more spicy than mild: K:BB = 37:4 (0 HBPs) Whip = .72 with only 6 XBH allowed in 81 ABs with an opposing .160 B/Avg. Granted, he's faced Manhattan (7-8), Missouri State (5-10), Rice (2-14), and Queens (2-14), and both Rice and Queens got him for 3 runs apiece.
  15. They use a lot of colorful language and contrived victim scenarios to say, "We need to leave again so Texas doesn't keep beating us in everything."
  16. Good, we know how this inevitably ends for them then.
  17. Texas: Royal Ivey: can coach, would drive program support, but totally unproven at the college level. Brad Underwood: meh. Sean Miller: meh. Todd Golden: seems like a decent HC given his short career, but also might be a sexual predator. Will Wade: dirty as fuck, but the guy can coach. Unlikely we hire him. other top tier coaches via money whip:
  18. x She looks like a pretty (damn good) coach:
  19. Texas is the only remaining "non-chalk" seed.
  20. Tre's offensive arsenal is so deep. He hits difficult looks with ease.
  21. "We gotta rebound though," too
  22. Makes sense. Empty the tarp off in the outfield, drain, and disperse any puddles well ahead of time.
  23. For sure. Saturday appears to be a complete thunderstorm wash bookended by good weather on F/Sun. My only concern would be outfield conditions on Sunday, especially since it’s grass/dirt, but I would have to assume there’s a pretty good process in place given this is common in the SEC and it’s only projected to be an inch of rain. I know baseball but I don’t know much about baseball groundskeeping. Anyone here have more insight?
  24. This team isn't playing in the NIT. If (read: when) Texas misses the tournament and RT is fired, Texas won't accept an invite.
