And we're not done yet.

I think we add as much pitching as we can with a priority shifting to LHP. I think we have done well with pitching plus what we know we are keeping so far- Foster, McPherson, and Burns...but I think we would be very happy to find someone with legit closing experience and maybe a Hungate/Schuelke type if we can. We have enough where we can find a closer I believe as it is though. So we're really talking about being in a position of luxury here.

We need a SS and another catcher. Those are our major needs right now really. I'm sure we would also take someone that is too good to turn away if they wanted to come like Henry Ford although the consensus is he will commit to Tennessee. Would love for us to get involved there and at least muddy up the waters and drive up the price some. I think our outfield is most likely Chance, Teel, and Nunalee. That's a really strong group.

How many times do I have to explain this??

Virginia wasn't bad this year. Virginia went 16-11 in the ACC, better than 3 ACC teams who won Regionals. They only played 27 conference games because an entire series at Florida State was canceled after a shooting, which really hurt their RPI. Their RPI was also hurt by their athletic director going super cheap on the non-conference scheduling.

Even despite all that, the selection committee really brain-farted by not selecting them anyway. One of the worst in/out decisions the committee has made in this century.

Yes, this portal ranking stuff is a 1/2 bullshit.

-UVA teaches me that I know nothing. They were #3 in hitting and #1 in the ACC Only Hitting. #3 in Pitching and #6 in ACC only pitching. They finished 6th in the conference and 4 teams below them in the standings made the regionals. Nutty stats.
- they were losing because the 1st and 2nd best pitchers, the dudes that beat MSU in 2024 turned to shit 2025. The assumed ace sucked in 2025. Evan Blanco sucked and Woolfork stayed unreliable as before, he saved his best ever performance for MSU in 2024.

And this is exactly why he did not bring his pitching coach with him. Everyone needs to rest on concerns related to UVA this past season. They were more than deserving of a regional bid and absolutely got the screws by the selection committee. Did they under achieve? Yes. It?s baseball, just ask Polk. Crap happens, sometimes things you can control and sometimes not.

Yeah, he was cutting ties with the pitching coach regardless of where he was going to be coaching. This guy had been with him for quite awhile and it wasn?t a case of the AD forcing him to fire him and hire a new coach. Oak wasn?t in danger of being fired, he just saw a weakness and moved to correct it immediately. Encouraging to me.

If a pitcher throws one right down the middle for strike 3 with the bases loaded and 2 outs, but the dumbass umpire calls ball 4 anyway, you don't blame the pitcher.

Similarly, you don't blame O'Connor because the selection committee did the equivalent of that.

Has he ever admitted Hunter Renfroe would make and stay in MLB? He was always moving the goal post. First it was he would never make it. Then it was he wouldn't stay up.

I for one am glad things worked out like they did. We were never going to do anything of significance again with Lemonis anyway so we needed to be able to make the change. Our player development under him stunk and we were becoming totally dependent on the portal to have SEC caliber players.
As BOC has mentioned our roster has to be totally rebuilt because we really have no up and coming position players available coming from HS recruiting. We are having to pull everything in from the portal. Overall program was just not being run well and with Lemonis we would have just been locked into mediocrity.

Has he ever admitted Hunter Renfroe would make and stay in MLB? He was always moving the goal post. First it was he would never make it. Then it was he wouldn't stay up. Then it was he wouldn't make it past a year. He might be doing a victory lap now that Hunter seems to be winding down around 10 years.

Coach34 has some good takes and info but can't seem to ever admit being wrong.

Excessive need for admiration: They crave constant attention and praise from others to fuel their fragile self-esteem.
Sense of entitlement: They expect special treatment and favorable outcomes without necessarily having the achievements to warrant it.
Lack of empathy: They have difficulty recognizing or understanding the feelings and needs of others.
