  1. That was a fun season and we got totally fucked. We should’ve been a 2 seed somewhere in the southeast but they shipped us off to Long Beach and we still almost won. Fucking Cantu. That’s a team I feel like would’ve done some damage in Omaha. Really good lineup with Cooper, Kennedy, Kingham, Shugart and Ridgeway. Fucking baseball being all annoying like that
  2. Man I wish the 2020 season happened. We were absolutely loaded that year. Oh well. The baseball gods owe us hard ever since that faithful day against tcu in 2010 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
  3. Skip used to give private lessons to Kershaw, Homer Bailey, Scott Kazmir and an ocean of other mlb dudes. And obviously the Knebal, workman, Jungmann, Milner, Curtiss and peters group. Good side gig for these dudes
  4. See Trojans, Texas kids would like to do this again
  5. Tried explaining that to that aggy dude. He couldn’t wrap his head around it. It makes perfect sense for dudes like Evan Stewart to play for jimbo and not sark in their minds. It’s insane
  6. Even Pierces dog hates him. Dude is just toxic. Good thing we made the CWS 3 of the last 4 years in spite of him. Phil Haig and Sean Allen were the true brains there
  7. Honestly I thought we were gonna go like 4-8 in 2013. Greg Robinson and our o line saved our ass that year. And of course we unnecessarily burned swoopes redshirt against like Kansas and when we were getting our asses kicked by Oregon. Sweet now I’m all pissed at Mack again
  8. Awesome. Basically an assistant without being on the payroll.
  9. His dad was one of my coaches. Wasn’t exactly the smartest dude. And he was my history teacher one year. He constantly dips. Shit he was dipping during a lecture once. Thought it was rude he didn’t offer me any
  10. Thanks. I wasn’t already feeling old or anything
  11. It’d be a great way to honor 9/11 if Baker tore up both his knees after throwing 3 pick sixes
  12. But Demas and Stewart are total class acts so this makes sense
  13. Fuck hey @Cajun, we need 150 pounds of meth this week instead of the usual 100. Think you can swing it?
  14. Sure, I’m just gonna go find a cash machine
  15. You live in Austin? Or the greater central Texas area?
  16. Same with Ohio State before our game in 05. I’m sure ou talked shit before our 05 game. Oh man remember Rudy Carpenter before the 07 holiday bowl talking mad shit. Well……
  17. That sounds about right. God I miss Augie. Has Harmon been hanging around the program at all? Been loving Gus and his players and the Augie studs coming back and hanging with the program. Would love to have Harmon around the disch with these guys
  18. I bet Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa and Maryland stepping up their game in baseball has gotten Ohio state to wake the fuck up there. Shit even northwestern and Purdue are slowly turning into salty little programs. The big 10 has hired some salty ass coaches the last few years
  19. Yep!!! That’s what I was talking about. My dad said it was the craziest shit he’s ever seen and he could never quite pick up on what he was doing. And my dad is like us, lives and breathes baseball. Our boy valmy covered it. Would be nice if Gus shared some of his secrets with Pierce. But yeah man, got a really good feeling about our trajectory. Hard to argue Pierces results so far. He’s learned a little something and tweaked a thing or 2 every season. I think he’s finally truly grown into the role and is ready to start kicking ass. This is the best staff we’ve had since Augie, Harmon and Skip 15 or whatever years ago. I’m expecting some 02-‘11 type results in the coming years
  20. I think he did. My dad told me stories of this insane play he would call. Runner on 3rd and he’d somehow get the pitcher to balk. @BillyGoatHill, @Valmy77 @Cajun y’all know what I’m talking about?
  21. I remember them being pretty solid base running wise the last few years but I could be misremembering. Didn’t exactly watch much baylor baseball outside our games
  22. Wonder if Pierce would be chill with giving Rodriguez 3rd base coach and let Pierce give signs in the dugout. That’d be pretty fucking nice
  23. Well, I really like the pitching coach hire, Rodriguez is pretty much a home run hire. I like promoting this guy for continuity. We’re gonna add a couple more assistants in some capacity at some point. We already got 2 pretty good transfers coming in. I’m assuming that San jac kid is coming with woody. Stehly is coming back. Got a good feeling about the draft, specifically with hodo and Southard. And maybe faltine. If he cuts down on the strikeouts he could really improve his draft stock. I’m guessing he and hodo are roughly 8-10th rounders right now. If they come back and make that next step like damn near every hitter under Pierce has, they can play their way into the 2nd or 3rd. I’m betting hodo stays and faltine leaves though. Anyways yeah so far this has been a pretty good off-season
  24. Please don’t. I have plenty of friends. Like derka and @ztejas so basically fuck you, @Sabalo. Whoever the fuck you are
