Hmmm, that won't be good enough. If this is how it works out the grapes will have fermented too early.
I was at that game. That's my pick. Nobody knew what the frick had happened. A few rows up from field level you couldn't possibly tell that not everyone in the mass of people coming off and on the field.

I was certain we had lost that one. Jordon Jefferson was infuriating.

Yeah add him to those Cy Young caliber pitchers like Roger Clemens (his days were over many times, over 20 years), same with Nolan Ryan, that just don't have any longevity prospects.

Guaranteed tamper candidate. We probably should try to keep him. But,....you can't keep everyone with 34 roster spots.
I don't think he's interested in transferring. Doesn't matter who contrats him. Although he's from South Carolina, he's a homer now.

Of course, it's good news for college baseball.
Nah, I didn't see that at all.

Our starters were missing their locations. More generally, you could also call it not executing the pitch. I didn't interpret that as a pitching coach problem. Another year like this,.....maybe I'd feel differently.

We saw the same pitches from Evans but not as accurate with his location. He did find it, and was effective, in several outings. At times erratic early in the season.

Cooper was accurate before his injury but was missing his locations by very small margins but at critical times. He got hit around a bit.

Schmidt improved in all areas, I think, but was still missing locations up and middle and got hammered when he did.

Our pitching out of the bullpen was lacking control top to bottom at some of the most inopportune times. And they all had good and bad outings.

There were lots of strikeouts when they executed.

That's what I saw.
Truth. We need to cut down on the opposition scoring. That includes defense for certain. We had way too many errors. They change the rhythm and dynamics of the game.
To be fair,...he will have an opportunity to pitch as a weekend starter. Elliot is out of eligibility so a spot opens up. However, he will have to win it. Good luck.

Totally agreed. He is really hard to hit until the other team sees that hard slider.
He left before the 2025 season. He wasn't going to bump Jones or Frey or Curiel or Brown or Stanfield. So he left.

re: Lucas Nawrocki chances

I don't understand this comment. Are you just disrespecting Hood? Nawrocki has already committed to LSU. We are likely going to be competing with the MLB for his services.
I'm not going to second your opinion but,.....from the beginning I thought it will harder to have success for CLK than it was to get the job. I say give him the time to form a good team and long standing program. He's here now so,.....let's geaux.

The competition is, and will continue to be, really tough. Especially against schools that have large endowments. Recruiting is fundamentally a bidding process now.

I don't think losing a 5 star freshman will make a big difference for us. Especially this year.
Georgia is on my mind. Easier path.
The chrystal ball is missing, it seems. Players get evaluated on past performance and likely potential. It's a science but not a perfect one. Misses happen all the time and to every team.

The last time Mr Reed had his way was at home and it was just very frustrating and ended up blowing up the season, the program, and really, the whole state for a couple months. So,……nobody here wants to hear it. There will be a little extra sauce when we play them again. However, it’s none of the same players or coaches. So it could be somewhat milquetoast.
