I didn’t want to be the one to correct that but yea, he said it last year either after their first loss or before the season. CJJ mentioned it on Mikd Up a while back. It’s a simple concept really, what do you have when shxt hits the fan? That’s what wins titles.

Headed to Scottsdale next week, looking to play a quick round at one of these short courses. Rolling Hills seems to have very cheap daytime rates due to their focus being night golf, which is not an option for me. The Short Course - Mountain Shadows is still +$100 for 18 on a par 3 course which seems high to me but it looks like a cool experience that may be worth it.

Anyone have any opinions on these? Is Rolling Hills even worth playing in the day time?

Hand up. That's on me. I totally missed a day of scrimmages. :dope:
I'll be better.
I do feel like we have a good sense of the rotation though.
Friday Evans, Saturday Moore, then Sunday Williams or Schmidt.

Whoever starts on the mound with the starters tomorrow I think we know our rotation.
Evans - Fri
Schmidt - Sat
Moore/Williams - Sun

I have a genuine question from someone who hasn't watched an LSU basketball game since Tyrus Thomas played the Final Four year.

Do we actually have the caliber of talent necessary to do well in the SEC? As a baseball and football fan, I can tell every year that the guys we roll out there are all on par with the talent in the SEC. There are teams that you can tell just haven't been able to get the talent on campus and they get exposed every year. Are we an attractive enough place for high level bball players to commit to?

College baseball is like watching the MLB from late August through October. Its all the best parts of MLB without 100 extra boring meaningless games. The fans are engaged from opening day to the final out of every season. These dudes are also throwing 100 mph and hitting +430' bombs with metal bats. It is just a more entertaining brand of baseball.

Figured I'd comeback here to update you all.

My Takomo 101t's came in last week. I have been slammed at work but today during lunch I ran over to the driving range to hit them.

I have not hit a golf ball so terrible in my entire life. I could have had the best clubs money could buy and still would have learned nothing today. I dug a hole big enough to bury myself in. Every single shot was fat, mud spraying in my face, wrist hurting like a sumnabitch.

Stay tuned as I will bravely take these terrible feels to the course this weekend. All in all the clubs looked good in the bag as I made myself look like an idiot right in front of it.

Golf is fun, now I'm pissed and back at work.

tad, is that you?!?

Assuming that's Reaves' Dad or something, no. Reaves had an easy exit but he stayed, Jay praised him over the fall. That all adds up.


Why are you so high on Dardar? Serious question. Just genuinely curious.

I don't think your first favorite fatty will be starting opening day.

I am worried about that so I am campaigning for him a little here but I am not blind to the facts. We brought in 2 transfers at his two positions 1st and 3rd. So I am giving him the DH spot until Jay says otherwise.

Pitching Rotation Prediction

Friday - Evans
Saturday - Williams or Schmidt
Sunday - ??? (Cowan, Noot, Sheerin)

First out of Bullpen: Rizy, Guidry, Benge

I have not seen or heard much about the transfer/freshman class guys. I know we have some dudes that will emerge as we get closer to conference play. Also CJJ has stuck with his strategy of having a basketball team in the bullpen. These guys are large, and throw very hard.

Do we know the dates of any preseason scrimmages or anything? I am ready to start seeing some line up predictions.

I'll start.

Curiel - CF - OBP and Speed - STUD
Brown - RF - OBP Speed and Pop - STUD
Yorke - 1B - Second Favorite Fatty
Arrambide - C - Breakout Season - STUD (loading...)
Pearson - DH - First Favorite Fatty
Caraway - 3B - Can he stay hot from last year? Barely know her
Milam - SS - Best SS in baseball, does well at bottom of order - STUD
Reaves - 2B - Due for breakout season
Stanfield - LF - Speed and OBP (ugliest swing in baseball but somehow works)
