We were not going to win now keeping those guys, but we might have won next year Mario those guys.

JJ thought we could win now with the portal guys.

Huge risk that did not pay off, and now, we have a choice.

Going back to that model you speak of at this point means we won’t win in 27 but can in 28

Going portal means we might ior migbt not win in 27, and we are going to have the same problem every year.

Guess we will start calling you Nancy

Jay complains about missing in the portal but took this kid and will barely let him play at all in like 2 seasons, including one where the positions this kid plays are along the weakest on the team. Let him play or process him for someone you're not afraid to put on the field.


Jay sees him as the bullpen catcher.

That’s a valuable spot but I think k he can do more, or at least should be given the opportunity to see if he can do more.
quote:

I’ve seen balls dropped that hit right in the catcher’s glove. Many, many times. That should never happen. Sorry, our catchers suck


Hmmm. One dropped ball means they suck?
quote:

In his defense, the number one rated catcher in Texas was a defensive bust two years in a row.


Catching is hard. Especially when pitchers are trying to develop new stuff.

Most of our problems are wild pitches, not passed balls
quote:

Not sure what he'll do next season, but I don't want him to give up on the portal.


The portal is for finishing pieces.., not wholesale rebuilds.

He took mostly guys from lower levels. That seems to translate more with pitching than hitting.
quote:

Only one of those was a power hitter, which is what he seems to be referencing.


And he came from the ACC

A good incoming freshman class and decent hole filling in portal

I think our pitchers will come around with another year of experience,
The solution is simple but this board won’t accept it.

Recruit and develop.

The way to get better at baseball is to play baseball. This season is just about lost.. let’s start playing more young kids and get them experience. Especially during the remaining midweeks.

Players like Milam. Stanny, Brown, and Curiel should not play another midweek inning the rest of the way.

The portal should be cut no more than a couple of depth pieces. Early this season we had 3/4 of infielders from the portal, that’s insane.

Jay thought he could plug and play on a large scale. Didn’t work. I think he understands.

Pops needs to learn that criticism (fair or not) is a part of big time SEC ball, especially for a qb. When you get paid to do something, criticism comes with it.


Has this recruit played SEC ball yet or been recruited?

Moscona has turned into a hot take fool.
People have wanted an Augie moment…that’s as close as I think you will get
quote:

He basically admitted this shite isn't getting fixed this year


No trades or call uos in college baseball

He tried to short circuit the development process. Didn’t work, I do believe he is someone who will learn from this… but a real fix only comes in the offseason,
There is a lot of disappointment to be sure.
Confused why we need to refuel do much. Thought engines were not used much after lunar transit burn

Is this finally the end for Spirit?

Posted by LSUFanHouston on 4/16/26 at 10:28 pm
Seems like every couple of months, stories are run in the media that Spirit is about to shut down. Abd they always find a way to keep going.

Those stories are back this week,

It feels like they have been on thin ice for 2 years and I would think suddenly higher fuel prices are not good.

Yes, before full retirement age

Now you go get the money “back” in form of higher parents later… but since that’s the case… makes sense to just wait IF you are still working,

As a kid I preferred it over Gatorade. Lots of memories of baseball and football games where we had the 5 gal coolers on the bench with water mixed with the fruit punch powder
