I was disgusted by how bad the MSU program was, and the other one was worse. I'm just jaded.Quote:

Hopefully MSU professors are the exceptions. Corporate C-Suite Executives are the same, I used to have a General Patton guy as my COO. He personally authorized me to keep a loaded Glock in my desk in case of an active shooter. The new guy, only met him personally once.
The MBA kids at work (Vandy, UVA, and Ivy) tell me that professors make most of the classes primarily on-line but many kids still live in the collegiate community to get the college life and networking. One of the Vandy kids (a Navy Grad and former Sub Officer) was pissed that his professor was living in Colorado posting his ski habits while being too "scared" to teach in Nashville. One blonde girl from Columbia U that was going to U of Chicago for MBA says that all her classes are on-line option. If you go to class, it's just a movie theater. She was super COVID scared at work, even ate with a mask on, took a bite, and then masked while chewing. But she was mad because she likes the Chicago nightlife and did not want to live with her parents in Suburban jersey. She showed me her club pictures in Chicago, no mask and barely a dress.
What tweet?Quote:

LSU is about to add another transfer pitcher.
Who is Karson Ligon? He is in.
Miami pitcher who will be our Sat/Sun guy. Now we're waiting on Holman. We'll know what we've got in a couple weeks.Quote:

Cool. I only posted bc he was mentioned previously by some folks.Quote:

I think that it can. Lemonis is like Orgeron. Need top coaches and players. I hope that he let his friendship with fox blind him in seeing that Fox was not elevating our pitchers and it just all went down from there. If you look at our fielding when we played for the championship, they played as a team. Weren't fighting for balls. Weren't making a lot, if any, errors. You get a team like that then Lemonis can climb out of this. We looked better after Foxhall left at pitching.Quote:

We better hope that it works out because otherwise we'll be filing the roster with transfers to remain competitive the next few years, which we probably will have to do at least one year due to sucking two years in a row.
YesQuote:

IF he gets
(a) Montgomery
(b) Get another two marquee arms: Holman, Snead, Sellinger (sp?), or Molina
Then he is hosting with 17+ SEC wins and would be competitive in any regional.
I'm pretty negative on Lemo and I agree with this. And if he does host a regional he deserves another season.Quote:

Why 5 instead of 3 or 6 or 10? You're just making up an assertion. I want you to use advanced statistics and prove it if you're going to throw numbers around.Quote:

That even starting the season 1-5 and losing 6 of 7 down a different stretch with Tennessee, Arkansas, and LSU. At 16 and 14, MSU would likely have hosted.
Giving MSU the 12th best ERA, all else constant. Same record, too many non-competitive games but you are in the 15-to-16 win range. Even still having the worst ERA in the conference, but almost matching the 13th worst, MSU would have won 14 or so games. Made a regional.
Now, with hitting. MSU was mid pack hitting at 266 but 10th in runs scored in the conference. About 10 fewer runs than the average team. MSU has been mid-pack for years in this stat. But without E5 (easy out), the Captain (toothless and slow), Foreskin (non-factor) you can start talking about change. Yes, ledbetter is a loss and an amazing player. The three bad hitters were also 50% of the DPs. MSU was worst in the conference in DPs. So, with Kohler at 3B, Hines at 1B, Cupp/Mershon at SS, and Hujsak hopefully matching Clark. I see about 0.20 more runs, still mid-pack. If you can get Montgomery, i think this team can at least be the 8th best team in the conference for runs, that 0.5 more runs per game. You are in the +17 range for wins. Even a shitty Auburn team that MSU could have swept won 17 games. So there is that.
Q knows all this he is just being obtuse. 25% less walks would lower our ERA a good chunk- which obviously would have led to more wins. This isn’t rocket surgeryQuote:
