  1. It’s no novelty. But your best chance at the NFL is playing time. Lots of quality playing time. And with the portal and NIL, transferring to the SEC from any conference is easier. It’ll be interesting to see how trading up in college football goes.
  2. Well, they do kinda get first dibs on coaching and broadcasting opportunities. Even if not, their earning potential doesn’t just end. I am a bit curious on monies spent on training. I would think much of that is paid on their behalf but maybe they all have personal trainers.
  3. FYI, Tyler Johnson was referenced largely for the ensuing reactions. I do have some appreciation for his hanging in there and becoming a decent player (assumption as I have not paid attention to his actual play). And in no way am I seriously in defense of TH.
  4. They have WVUs RB as 2nd team. No other offensive guys listed so I guess they’re saying those 3 linemen are carrying the RB to good stats but everyone else is not good.
  5. At the expense of pushing Mr. James over the edge with more PFF, ……………..Banks missing was a little curious. Overall, we were well represented on the 1st and 2nd teams. PFF listed them as two Ts, two Gs and a C so it wasn’t best 5 guys. The BYU guy and a WVU guy were the Ts. WVUs Milam is a class ahead of Banks and was SIs #1 rated high school RT and an Army All American. I scanned a PFF podcast on the 2024 Olinemen draft candidates. 3rd team selection Paul for Houston was mentioned in that podcast. Ford, Jerrin and Barron were all 1st team on D. Six offensive Horns on the first two teams. Six on D. Then 3 3rd teamers. And 1st team K and P. No edge guys though. For those that say Tom Herman can’t recruit Oline Tyler Johnson and C Jones come in at 3rd team. So there. I’m curious about that WVU Oline. I’ll pay more attention than I otherwise would have. All upperclassmen with good experience. Also, the Big 12 media had Novitsky at 1st team OL. He’s not on any of the 3 PFF teams.
  6. So you’re saying maybe this year we’ll find out. RBs that are great in the passing game are different animals.
  7. Did the 49ers go further in the post season with him than they otherwise would have?
  8. Well obviously. West Virginia has the best Oline in the country.
  9. Which begs the question of why isn’t HBP included in WHIP? It’s the same impact as a walk except you aren’t walking on 0-2 or 1-2.
  10. Yet his walks/IP was 3rd best on the team. No wild pitches. He hit a lot of dudes. You gotta like that strategy. Put the fear into the next dude of watching his earhole. It does not appear as though MSUs pitching coach had any magic. Still surprising he wasn’t drafted. I’m not sure if I should say to hell with him or I hope he has a successful career.
  11. I’d go error on a ground ball cause the out was there for the taking.
  12. That narrative the broadcast crew threw out in the Super of him not playing RF was odd. First, many a two way player played in the field and still pitched. Second, he only pitched 2.1 innings in the regional. A regional in which they had to come out of the losers bracket. One appearance. Dugan had two appearances in that regional, both of 3+ innings as a comparison. Then against us, he never pitched including game 3 when they were squeezing every last pitch out of their most dependable guys. If he can throw high 90s, tell him what he wants to hear and give him a shot. If we get 15-20 good innings, that’s a bonus. If he’s deadset on being a two way player, he’ll never meet his max ability at either. You have to wonder how much effort needs to go into the pitching side of things to be effective and does that result in a setback of offensive production. Get him in and let’s find out.
  13. I know they were discussing the record after 6 the other day but can’t remember the numbers. But we’ve matched that win total since the all star break. Is that correct?
  14. You were on his trivia team weren’t you?
  15. Don’t remember ever doing bull in the ring.
  16. Maybe Woody is just more likeable. The name alone sounds more approachable.
  17. Maybe a season momentum building series.
  18. Hey now, I don’t twitter. I don’t mind throwing out some internet threats. Might even throw out some in person, but they won’t go beyond whipping some ass and into this territory. It is sobering when I think I’m old enough, and then some, to be his dad. Damn. There is a considerable amount of bitchass on this site and I ain’t apologizing for jabbin back at anyone or highlighting the positives for any player. For all outward appearances our dudes play hard and are good teammates. That’s what I ask. For Texas baseball, I take it as a given they have talent or they wouldn’t be here. Beyond that, it’s the coaches job to put them in position to find success. As for next year, I hope Sthele comes back and gets half the board shitting their pants. Either way, we’re positioned to return to Omaha. Play big at the big moments. Imo.
  19. Regarding discussion on Galvans D, I recall hearing that the C on his knee is teaching point these days to help the pitcher keep the ball down. I know there was discussion on that earlier this season. I’m not a fan of that, but it’s less concerning than his receiving and blocking/catching those he should. It still is a thing that you can live with offensive holes at either C, SS, or CF. You just can’t have holes at all 3. Maybe not even 2. The truth is mediocre seasons can be had if they heat up come the post season. With the abilities of this team, we could likely live with a mediocre hitter at C. Galvan can likely give enough offense, but he can’t be a liability defensively.
  20. Any players kicked off? I’ve heard no mention of that.
  21. I’d be curious to see the numbers of our DH. I’m not sure it was that bad. Flores horrible average was largely due to his non-DH games. Maybe the stats say differently, but that’s my recollection. Much of Galvans work was at C with GG DHIng there. Carlson was doing fine until he got hurt. Mind you, I’m not saying DH was good or average.
  22. I’m here all year bro.
  23. Ain’t gonna matter. Too stacked.
