  1. He committed there before foregoing college for pro ball correct?
  2. We are finally getting some actual news now
  3. The daddy hat thing isn’t my cup of tea either, but when I’m deciding who the next coach of Texas should be, what props they use when celebrating a HR should not be a concern.
  4. I watched Ivan flip his bat back to the pitchers mound (which would be an ejection today) after destroying a baseball in 2022 against South Carolina. That is as douchebag as it gets and Ivan is a pretty mild mannered person.
  5. People are going to have to lighten up on this one, it is a part of the game now. Texas has their own team HR celebrations like everyone else.
  6. It is odd that we are a week and half in and there has been radio silence. Did not expect them to let him twist in the wind for this long
  7. “There is rich teams and then there is poor teams… Then there is 50 feet of crap Then there is LSU Then there is us” -Billy Beane
  8. No, but I wouldn’t mind seeing the men adopt that format
  9. Teams ranked in order from wouldn’t mind seeing win to absolutely don’t want to see win. 1. Florida State 2. Kentucky 3. NC State 4. Virginia 5. North Carolina 6. Tennessee 7. Florida 8. Texas A&M
  10. It’s baseball, people get better and worse all the time on a year to year basis sometimes for no explainable difference because the margin between success and failure is so small. Corey Seager hit .306 in 2021, .245 in 2022, then jumped back up to .327 in 2023. Shit happens Mitchell Daly hit .230 over about 400 ABs from 2022-2023. Daly is a really good kid and I’m glad he found success at Kentucky
  11. Kimble hit .343 this year and posted an OPS over 1.000. Better coaching fix him? Why did A&M let him go? The anecdotal this ONE player got worse/better is the dumbest hill I see people dying on in these threads.
  12. Mitch hit .231 in 186 ABs last year.. Why do people act as if he was wronged
  13. Paul is 66… South Carolina used to be a proud baseball program
  14. 17-20 on the weekend and in the NCAA tournament which is probably the most fair assessment. Not going to hold the midweek games against him.
  15. These threads become so unbelievably devoid of context it is amazing. Tennessee hadn’t made the NCAA tournament in 13 years when Vitello took that job… Comparing anything he has done at Tennessee to what Pierce has done at Texas is so disingenuous it isn’t even funny.
  16. It is not an elite job, USC has abandoned that program and they just put the final nail in its coffin with their move to the B1G. Times change and what Rod Dedeaux did in the 1960s and 1970s is irrelevant to today.
  17. Do you consider USC baseball an elite job?
  18. Well, this next week is probably going to be pretty telling on where the coaching search has settled with Bakich now out. I know you can't always get what you want, prying Tony Vitello away from Tennessee is probably going to end up in disappointment, but if you have 6 minutes, this is the energy this program needs with where we are headed next year. I get he isn't everybody's cup of tea but it is impossible not to see why kids love playing for him.
  19. If I am Oregon State, I'm sending Bazzana on the first pitch
  20. Ump behind the plate has a tin can for a strike zone, it started to fuck with his head and he pretty much lost command of everything, couple that with some shitty foul ball luck and you get a disaster.
  21. Had a 97 mph fastball on the mound, really had no good option at his disposal
  22. Evansville getting taken to the woodshed now
