When you have the roster we have, you can’t make any mistakes in the field. If Tanner Allen doesn’t dive for that ball with two outs and goes to first, Stovall throws the runner out at first and we go into that inning allowing no runs. You have to be flawless in the field and we make dumb ass mistakes in the field way too much.Quote:

OSU's staff is good, but Vandy's was deeper & more talented. Particularly in the bullpenQuote:

It certainly makes it easier obviously but it can be done. I'm not advocating getting a bunch of just good college guys'll. We should Ben able to get the best players in the country. But it's not the end all be all.Quote:

Look, if Hunter fields the ball cleanly and Small is there at 1st like he should be then the dude is out. Not sure why we are putting all the blame on Allen.Quote:

Great inning there. Way to set the tone Stovall
That ball would have been a basehit against us. How the hell did that SS get to a ball that was where the third baseman should have made the play?
Is Mangum the only player on our team that would start at OSU?
That surprise you? They pretty much pick who they want on the west coastQuote:

Bc Allen knows hunter has tremendous range and is playing pull side. He has to let Stovall have that ball every time. It was a huge mistake.Quote:
