  1. Nice. BU always recruited above their weight class in CA and had a good top half of their order. Hopefully the pitching coach hire is at least this splashy
  2. Was waiting for this. Spiegelman doesn’t seem like a scoop merchant, but a low % crystal ball on a guy that’s never had more than “use them to beef up my commitment graphic” level interest in us seemed like a big leap
  3. Why are we canning guys without replacements lined up? There’s no reason to have staff openings for any longer than is legally required. Not that we’ve lost anyone earth shattering, but we’re still more susceptible to transfers out and only have Pierce working on transfers in
  4. Yeah I actually don’t even think that roster sizes shrink now that I’m looking it up. That’s just what the popular reasoning was at the time. And I didn’t really notice anyone else missing in the dugout last week
  5. Roster limits shrink for Omaha. He didn’t choose not to go
  6. True. Pretty close to a Flood or Jerrance Howard
  7. It would be shocking if we could pull him. Tennessee is all in on baseball right now, can’t see them being out bid. And their staff is far and away the best in the country while he’d be building from almost nothing here.
  8. There’s a big difference between finding the perfect missing piece to round out an order and needing to find 5 of those. And trying to replace Quintanilla with under recruited juco guys instead of elite transfers last offseason was a failure
  9. Wake the fuck up, Pierce. Johnson got all his assistants poached and he’s still pulling elite transfers
  10. Merry Archmas to all
  11. CDC needs to tell our major coaches to retire the “…will not be entrusted to the weak nor timid” until they can go one rivalry game without filling their diapers
  12. Pierce is one miraculous Witt outing from being 0-6 in Omaha. This team should be remembered for so much, but will be rightfully reduced to the gutless finish. At least 2018 can be justified by the stacked path we had in Omaha
  13. If you don’t get an answer, shoot for 117 for home games, 107 for away games. That’s about what I remember from last year
  14. My GA season tix aren’t good enough to get my ticket request filled. Anyone got a section number for me so I can buy nearby?
  15. Nixon should’ve been shut down for the year a month ago and Pierce keeps letting him go and and destroy himself further
  16. Completely inexcusable not to go to Kennedy there
  17. So many fucking losers in this thread
  18. I’ve got 2 extra for Friday
  19. The more I think about it, the more it has to be Pete. Gordon was excellent in Arlington, but he had double digit fly outs with no wind and an oceanic outfield. Drop that game in Austin and Okie Lite has a couple HRs and that game could look a lot different. Anything Pierce can do to keep us out of the losers bracket with our staff has to be done and you go from there
  20. Their whole body of work isn’t a great indicator for just game 1 against them. They’ve won 10 straight with Skenes on the mound. They might not be able to hang double digit runs on Gordon/Hansen, but we also won’t be hanging double digits on one of the best pitchers in the country
  21. RPI up to 11. Would’ve been 21 with an L. W tomorrow will push us into the top 8 range of RPI with a top 30 SOS.
  22. 1 for Coy, 1 for Nixon? Everyone in the pen but Harrison is usable for tomorrow?
  23. Riggio was a top 10 recruit in CA last year and made it to campus in Stillwater. Nice job by Holliday there
