Is it just me, do we look like boys among men

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.

You have no damn clue and are the problem.


You think we need millionaires to make the changes. Look around we have a few but not many (don't get me started).
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 tho

Hardin and Davis didnt get the job done last night. It happens. Thats baseball

Pitching and defense is great but scoring 3 or 4 runs isn't going to win you much. It's not the dead ball era anymore. Our offense has really just gone to pot the last few weeks. We've got to get some guys going other than just Mershon and Hugesack to have any chance to do anything in the NCAA tourney. With our pitching and defense and just an average offense we are a dangerous team. Right now we are well below an average offense.

Ah the legend of the great Cannizzaro lives on!**

He was well on his way to running our program completely in the ground to Jimmy Bragan levels but he somehow gets a pass for having one of the worst seasons in the 2016-2021 era for MSU. You can also thank him for some of the major recruiting gaps we had recently too.

And by the way- he also brought in Gautreau.

Holcombe and Greg Haley were the biggest dudes yesterday, both bulldogs. Not on the field. But both could probably do business in a malee.

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.

Also- it's funny how Tennessee does all of this talking but has anyone ever seen them taken a swing? I'm guessing one brawl with someone will probably stop a lot of crap.

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

If Hines and Jordan get hot, we can go to Omaha.

FYI: Christian Moore is a 6'2, 200 pound 2B

Also UT has 6 guys that will be drafted in the top 2 rounds. To the other poster, it has little to do with NIL. Our NIL is competitive with anyone not named LSU or A&M.

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.

Chance, Mershon, Larry, Pulliam, Long, Powell look just like normal dudes out there. Hines looks sick. Dakota and Hujsak are our only starters that look like strong SEC athletes. That's not to say the others can't play or aren't good. But they've got a lineup of guys that look like football players and they hit like it

I wonder why they did not run rule us?

The guy was looking at tit pics in the dugout during 17n games. He?s not fit to lead any program.

I?m sure he sold it to some recruits, but give it a rest?.the guy is a 17n moron.

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?.

Their overall talent has appeared superior since 2022. Let?s not lie to ourselves and say Lispcomb, Beck, Gilbert and multiple pitchers weren?t better than what we rolled out.

I said we cant compete nickel and diming our way. Which is true.

You are correct. We dont have as many millionaires as the vast majority of other SEC schools. And the ones we do have specifically ear marked their donations for academics. I live in TN and I haven?t met one Vol fan who does a small monthly donation to some fund raiser. All say the same things as our common fans. There?s no ROI. Drop in the bucket. 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.
