    So Arkansas isn’t a done deal?
  3. Rockethorn1978
    I’m sold.
  4. Rockethorn1978
    Whoopsie. Reading is hard.

    Also that tweet is wrong. Just from a quick search they were down 2-0 and 5-3 last night to start the game.

    Ok the one I looked at didn’t even have him in the top 25 for 2024. But let’s say Kentucky offers him 12 mill a year and he only gets 7 at UConn. 5 million is hard for anyone to leave on the table especially if you’ve checked off the boxes as a coach. Will be interesting to see what the Kentucky offer will be if they even offer and it’s not just some dumb twitter reporter making shit up.

    From The list I found on Google Hurley isn’t even in the top 25 of highest paid coaches right now. If that is accurate and they offer him some 10-15 mill a year job and UConn can’t come close to matching why wouldn’t he leave? Kelvin Sampson makes 5 mill at Houston. So UConn will have to pony up to keep him if he even cares about money. I mean who wouldn’t want a 10 million dollar raise?
  8. Rockethorn1978
    I mean what would that number be vs what he makes at UConn? He’s already won 2 titles so it’s not like he hasn’t already checked off the most important goal as a coach. Why not check off make the most money in history box as well. Not saying he won’t but first i would have to see what that number per year is.

    UConn won every tournament game the last two years by double digits. Has that ever been done by a back to back champion? I can’t think of it ever happening. And all this dan Hurley shit about how he is. Who fucking cares. That’s what losers whine about because I would take Dan Hurley and his attitude at Texas all fucking day and wouldn’t think twice about it. That dude knows how to recruit to his system with guys that will buy in and play hard all game and he actually has an offensive and defensive philosophy. How many guys does UConn lose this year? They won’t win it every year and will probably lose a time or two in the early rounds but as long as Hurley is there I bet they win it all a few more times before he retires.

    Well if this is what we have in our farm to bring up then the future is bleak.
  12. Rockethorn1978
    Woof it will be a miracle to stay close until everyone is healthy.
  13. Rockethorn1978
    So much for back to back wins.
  14. Rockethorn1978
    Let’s stack wins starting tomorrow
  15. Rockethorn1978
    We need this win and tomorrow bad. Hang on to your butts.
  16. Rockethorn1978
    Ronel coming off a no hitter. What’s the history of guys after a no no? They usually get roughed up right? I just want to see the bats get going.

    So wishcasting off previous seasons? I mean at some point the window closes and we are who we are. I think in year 8 we are closer to being a 83 win team than a 95 win team. But I would love to be wrong, right now I’m just posting off what I see after 9 games. When it starts to change I’ll change my tune but that’s just me. Speaking of. What’s your lowest win total that realistically gets us in the wild card? 87? 90?
  18. Rockethorn1978
    I know everyone is wishcasting on the season like it’s a for sure thing we’re just gonna turn it on and be in the alcs again but we aren’t very good right now and haven’t done anything to make anyone think we’re gonna be consistently better as the season goes on. Right now we look like a 83 win team at best. Could that change when we get verlander and others back? Yea but seasons past can’t be the only thing you stand on as proof. Those teams had to actually turn it around to make us believers. We will see I guess. I hope we do turn it around and start winning some games with consistent scoring and not an explosion of runs every 4 games and then back to singles and strikeouts.
  19. Rockethorn1978
    Maybe we will turn this around at some point, but this looks and feels different than other years when we started slow. Who knows. Baseball is the hardest sport to predict. We just have so many issues right now and for me it’s mainly the offense and consistency. Every fucking game it’s meaningless singles followed by pop outs or strikeouts to 4-5 home runs and a blowout win. The bullpen against the Yankees wouldn’t have lost had we scored fucking runs so why the bullpen does blow ass it would be nice if the offense could produce some runs and have a bigger lead going into the 7th inning.

    This is gonna be the greatest turnaround in franchise history isn’t it. Were all gonna look back on this in October when we beat he dodgers for the title and just laugh and laugh and laugh.
  22. Rockethorn1978
    Don’t worry tomorrow or Monday we will win 11-0 and talk about run differential and leading the AL in home runs.
  23. Rockethorn1978
    So we didn’t even score from actual hitting. This offense blows.
  24. Rockethorn1978
    Abreu would fuck up a wet dream
  25. Rockethorn1978
    I’ll take it at this point
