  1. Honestly both. New faces everywhere isn’t promising early in the season. You know the drill, twice. We’ll have it figured out come April. Till then though….
  2. Ok yeah Duplantier needs to be pulled. Now. Good fucking god
  3. Mainly because of the bromance Texas and Air Force had last year. Just seemed like after we eliminated them in the regional, Skenes was ready to join the team.
  4. Guillemette has made solid contact all weekend. So that’s nice
  5. I mean, they call themselves “the Vandy Boys”. What do you expect?
  6. Think Pierce is just giving the young dudes a shot in the infield. Cool with me. Daly isn’t exactly our standard at short
  7. Yeah this is just what he does. We started off slow in ‘18 and ‘21 and went to Omaha. Started off slow in ‘17 and turned into a pretty salty team come the end of the year. If that team had DJ or Silas, they probably go to Omaha. It’s baseball. The way Pierce recruits and develops rosters, I’d be kind of shocked if he didn’t win it all at some point during his tenure here
  8. Yeah if he can go ahead and beat out Daly putting him back at 2nd where he belongs that’d be nice. And I assume O’Dowd at 3rd would’ve made those plays Flores didn’t Friday night
  9. We’re Texas. Dru Jones and Jackson Holliday outta be driving around Ferraris in Austin right now Was that your word of the day?
  10. @immamac we demand fucking answers Also pissed we couldn’t snag Skenes. That seemed like a layup
  11. Oh good lord. You really think Trump is gonna outlive Biden? Or have you been living under a rock and think that fat tub of fuck is still in office?
  12. I agree, but this is kind of what Pierce does. Plays a tough OOC, puts the young dudes in pressure situations to see who's got it, then has a set lineup with pitching roles established come conference play. I'd love to go back to the 02-'11 days where we come out of the gate beating the shit out of everyone but I can't complain with the results he's given us. We just happen to have a lot of new faces. Kash transferring kinda fucked us over. We could use his bat. Fucking cocksucker
  13. Yeah we're gonna be fine. This is nuts. Remember our 2018 and 2021 teams? Yeah they didn't get off to a fast start either. Pierce knows this is a marathon, not a sprint. Hence why we're playing 3 really good teams to start the year. It'll pay dividends down the road
  14. And 2012-2016 was some of the worst Texas baseball I've ever seen. Minus 2014. That team was so frustrating but shit they turned it on when it counted. Would've loved to see what Pierce and Tulo would've done with that group of bats
  15. He’s not Augie. That’s pretty much it
  16. I’m not sure but I bet Michael McCann holds that record
  17. Eh one game against a really good Arkansas team with an ocean of new faces. I liked what I saw tonight. Would’ve been easy for them to just quit when the pigs got up 3-0. They battled back and whatnot. Stuart is gonna be a weapon out the bullpen down the stretch. I’d like to see Powell be our DH for the time being. He’d bring some much needed power to the lineup. Porter looked solid. Our outfield is gonna save a lot of runs this season. I was expecting 1-2 coming out of this weekend. Beat mizzou tomorrow and let’s go from there. Also playing in a little tourney like this gives the young dudes and new faces a taste of what the postseason is gonna be like. All around a good experience for the team
  18. Wow. First game of the season. Wasn't expecting the fire Pierce shit to start this soon.
