  1. It’s not this years results. It’s his tenure. He maxed out the 2017 and 2018 teams. Good work. The 2021 team was awesome. The 2022 team was supposed to be awesome, but Witt went down and Stevens regressed. As did Nixon. Just like LBJ this year and Ridgeway back in 2019. For whatever reason, a stud pitcher or 2 seems to regress yearly under Pierce. Then last year went to the supers which was mostly fine in a rebuilding year. But this years team is roughly the same, arguably worse in some areas. Of course losing Mercer and Storm hurt but still, the fact that preseason Pierce thought Witt and Harrison would be legit contributors which makes me question his evaluations. So basically, is Pierce a good coach? Yes. Can he sustain a top 10 team yearly? Doesn’t appear so. With that being said, what a crazy ass year it’s been. Maybe we pull a ‘22 ole miss. That’d be pretty nice.
  2. Someone around here brings this up pretty often. Can’t recall who though… And this is where Pierce loses me. Yeah, it’s awesome firing on all cylinders in the late part of the season. But it shouldn’t take that long. We should be ass raping everyone from the start like Texas baseball has since WW1
  3. Totally got my years mixed up. For whatever reason I was thinking Chance over at first. Which is odd, Thigpen was one of my favorite players of that era I miss that entire team
  4. To make things even weirder, he was the only one of those infielders to make it to the show. I thought Seth was gonna get a cup of coffee and maybe Maroul if he improved at the plate. But nope.
  5. Highlights anywhere? Wasn’t able to watch the game
  6. I have Kole Calhoun flashbacks in general. The show he put on in 09….Jesus fuck. He almost single handily beat us. Almost
  7. Doing a rewatch. I can really only make it through the first 6 seasons. Season 7 sucks ass. Are any of the other seasons past the 6th any good? If not then I’ll just keep bathing in the glory that is seasons 1-6
  8. It’s fucking nuts. Every damn year…
  9. Ah. 2-3 years now? Not next year? My aggy friend thinks they’re going to be a top 5 team by years end. I just texted back “yeah well we’ll see….” Wasn’t in the mood for aggy mental gymnastics.
  10. Seriously. Most annoying team of the last 13ish or so years. Every fucking weekend is basically
  11. Craig, Greg and Keith would be perfect. As a red dirt country band. And for baseball commentary
  12. Yeah dude. It is early. Gotta set an alarm for 10:55 and pound a beer, load a bowl and throw in a dip within 5 mins. Little bit too much work for your below average college football watcher
  13. You gotta stop being up Savage. What has he done since that national championship? Oh right. Nothing.
  14. Well, he was set to pitch against ucla before he got scratched from the start in the whatever tournament it was that year. That was March 2022. So yeah it shouldn’t be anything physical unless he’s just having trouble finding his old mechanics.
  15. Is he broken beyond repair? It’d be really nice if a new coach could come in and make Witt and Harrison at least serviceable again.
  16. More like Herman. Both always come frustratingly close to being really good or great, but get in their own ways. 2021 was DP’s version of the 2018 Sugar Bowl season
  17. I went to a Tuesday game about 10 years ago. There was me and about 20 other fans in attendance. A foul ball comes my way. Lands a couple rows back. I’m pumped. Been trying to get one of those fuckers since I was 5. Right as I snagged it some little snot nosed kid walks up and goes “can I have it?” We were on the video screen and everything. I didn’t want to cough it up but I had to. Sill fucking pisses me off. Perfect representation of the pussification of America. Back in the day, you had to hop into a pile of white trash that reeked of bourbon and Copenhagen and hope you didn’t get shanked just for a foul ball. Now a kid just had to be in the vicinity and I’m somehow the asshole if I don’t fork the ball over.
  18. It’s almost annoying. Keep taking 2 of 3 and let’s see what this rag tag group can do in the postseason.
  19. Reading y’all’s posts makes me pretty happy I’m not watching this crap. Thank y’all for the collective sacrifice.
