Truly one of the most jaw dropping baseball managing decisions I've ever seen at any level.


I'm confused about what we're supposed to be complaining about last night - Mason Morris didn't pitch:
Hunter Elliot - 7.0 IP
Will McCausland - 1.0 IP
Ryne Rodriguez - 0.1 IP
Alex Canney - 0.2 IP
Good win and glad Morris didn't get burned in this one.

Although Charlie Conerly should be in the NFL HOF and so should Archie Manning's testicles.


Gene Hickerson not being in the college HOF is a head scratcher. Dude was one of the best guards in his generation.
Last series starting tonight. Got a shot at finishing above .500 in SEC play.
I just wonder if Ole Miss will get a single home SEC night game this year, since we didn't get one last year.

Watching the Birmingham vs Houston game and there's hardly anyone at the game. I don't see how this league can possibly last.
Bianco needs to do the right thing and retire after this season. He hasn't brought in the talent needed to compete, along with the fact that he's in the top 10 paid college baseball coaches at something like $1.6M/year. We're not getting our ROI out of him. Top 10 pay demands top 10 results, and we're not getting that.

Doubleheader today?


Yep, with the first game start at 4. Late night baseball tonight apparently.
I absolutely prefer it to not be on Thanksgiving. The 11:00am kickoff is weird on a Friday. I won't complain since it's an away game though.

Friday morning is a really stupid time for the game.

It's maddening that this staff doesn't start the best pitching...
From batting to pitching, our team really is not good.

I want them to stay just good enough to never fire Bianca.


Bianco's contract was last extended in '22, so he's got one more year on his contract (06/30/26). To say he's on the hot seat would be a severe understatement.
That scenario would surely force Carter's hand with Bianco.

Where’s his current contract? How many years left?


According to Grok, he's got one year left on his contract - it expires on June 30, 2026. He's currently making a base salary of $1.625 million annually.

Hopefully Elliott can find his control today. The longest outing he's had is 6 innings against Eastern Kentucky back in February.
