Cade smith dad/granddad

Looking at the way the schedule sets up for us pre-SEC...

We have Arkansas Pine-Bluff Tuesday. I suspect we'll see Fristoe, Walling, and Kohn. Maybe throw Tullar, Smith, or Stinnett to try to build their confidence back. We'll see.

But then we have two weeks in a row of five games.

I suspect we'll see the same three guys in the rotation for Northern Kentucky, Tulane, and Princeton. But then we have Grambling and USM followed up by two against Texas Tech. I'm guessing they'll start Fristoe and Walling or maybe Kohn in those games. That will give them some quality opponents to prove themselves against.

After that we have Binghamton between Princeton and the SEC opener. That seems like a good opponent to try to transition people to the weekend if they earn it.

I definitely agree with I think everyone on here that Cade Smith should be our Saturday guy and I was surprised that Hunt was named the Saturday guy. Sunday- I could have seen that. Smith has been good in scrimmages too so not sure what was up with that decision.

Awesome that we have players and their relatives on ED and how privacy is respected. Like good STATE Family; unlike TSUN Folk who try to destroy lives.

I remember the year we had to pitch Mangum, Blaylock, and Rooker. It was actually pretty funny when Mangum started on the mound and beat Ole Miss.

I have nightmares about 2009 and 2010. And defending Butch on Sixpack when some people blamed him for our pitching situation. Like he was supposed to do something with that group.

All true. Bitch did take hell w very little talent.

Its great to see our pitchers attacking hitters and not throwing 100 pitches before the end of the 5th inning. Our pitch counts were fantastic for the most part and if we can keep that up and attack hitters they should be able to go deep in games on the back end of the season when it counts. We have the talent, just need to fine tune the lineup for defense and batting and this team has a chance to be special also. One thing I did notice is we have some BIG guys at the plate this year. Hope that will translate into more power and more explosive innings. I hate to lose but feel very optimistic after seeing our starting pitching on Friday and Sunday!!

Well it is ballsy to admit being a relation to one of our players. My nephew will be recruited big time as a QB starting this year due to him being a Junior and being the starting QB for the senior age group Nashville 7 on 7 competitive team as a player from the Memphis area. When he starts getting recruited, I will be mum on the idea.

I never said much or anything on his recruitment, but I did ask him or tell him why not take visits, his reply was he knew where he wanted to go to school.

I try hard not to get into stuff about baseball.
