That kid is just ugly and has a fat face, he's not huge or anything. Not being mean, just saying. He's 5-11 and 196 as listed. Probably 5-10 226 in real life.Quote:

You say we can't compete? The problem is we aren't even trying. Just complaining.
From what I remember we almost got White and the AF pitcher that went to LSU. We need to try harder.
No. We were never in it for White. We did do all we could for Skenes thoQuote:

With our pitching and defense and just an average offense we are a dangerous team. Right now we are well below an average offense.Quote:

And by the way- he also brought in Gautreau.
The reason we "look" weak is because our approach at the plate is so weak. It's a coaching issue. Not a "we aren't big enough" issue.Quote:

I hate Tennessee. It's a great place to live, but I hate UT football and baseball.Quote:

Next thread will say: Bryce chance should be moved down from leadoff because he walks out to Taylor Swift and lacks facial hair.
And they?ll not win it all. They haven?t figured out how to be a dog. We finally did. I pray I don?t eat my words.Quote:

No kidding. We have some people that haven?t watched high level baseball at multiple age groups. There are all shapes and sizes that perform despite not ?looking the part?.Quote:

Yet they have one of the larger NIL purses out there. Wonder who gives the big bucks?
Fans were never supposed to be floating the bill for this crap. That?s not what NIL was ever supposed to be. The fact that each state has its own rules is beyond stupid. Talk about an uneven playing field.
Bottom line NIL was never going to be good for MSU. But go ahead and blame me. That should help your cause to raise a tiny portion of what these kids are demanding to sign.
Reading comprehension isn't your friend I seeQuote:

Yup. Then people trying to rationalize how righteous they are by not embracing NIL like that will help anything.Quote:

Our RH’ed Closer will be drafted
Our Friday night guy to start the season now pitching in relief will be drafted
That’s just the for sure ones. This pissing and moaning that we don’t recruit very well and have little talent is kind of moronic
Yeah you don't win 20 games against sec teams with a lack of talent.Quote:

UT reminds me of the roid players from the 90s.
Now we know why he hasn't been called up. Just a little guy who played at MSU.

Who is begging? What does that even have to do with my comment? We are telling you how it is and saying dont complain when the outcome is exactly what we are telling you for 2 years now. Right or wrong that is the way it isQuote:

Lord knows not making at least the championship game will be a let down to me. 2-2 was ok in Sec tourney but with a clutch hit here and there would have put us in championship game.
If we have all this talent you listed then you think they could have done a little better than miss the postseason twice and be a 2 seed once in 3 years.
