As long as they are naming different parts of the field, perhaps third base should be named after Wally Pontiff. I think it would actually be cool to put Wally's signature over the top of the bag.

and Matt Heath.

ETA: Who is an assistant at CoC! I bet he has instilled in them the best staredown after going yard in the country.

Matt Heath gets run as a coach because he still hates South Carolina

I heard somewhere awhile back that it has become tradition on the team that whoever is playing 3rd writes 31 into the dirt before every game. Apparently this has been going on for a long time but the fans didn't know anything about it.

Actually, it's an old as the dirt itself grounds crew member who draws 31 after the base is put in.

Also this thread is dumb.

Sorry, Harry that the thread does not meet your lofty standards. Perhaps you should post a list of acceptable threads?

I think a retired number would be better without having signatures all over the field.
