If we land Hurd and Skeene we have a chance to be back in Omaha again next year.
Ok guys I know we visited some in the portal yesterday, what's y'all hearing?
Where did the Kansas shortstop end up transferring to? Arkansas or TN ?
TNQuote:

Copied from a rantard:
Jim Schlossnagel-
Took over as head coach at Texas A&M 1 year and 2 days ago.
Within 2 months of being hired, overhauls roster:
-11 guys out: 7 transferred, 4 no longer on team
-14 guys added via portal, including Moss, Rock, Kaler, Palisch, Claunch and Dallas.
Picked to finish 6th of 7 in SEC West
Wins SEC West
Wins regional 3-0
Wins super regional 2-0
Advances to College World Series
--------------------------------
Lemonis won a natty so I won't complain, but it looks like all of the other teams are out recruiting us.

We had our back against the wall last year with the national championship run. Look at us and vandy this year. We played till June 30 and signing period opened 7/1 for transfers.
Yeah that's true...it sucks that winning a natty had the inverse effect on our recruiting
It?s a one year issue with transfers because of the timing of the ncaa ruling.Quote:

Go look when TN got transfers. Hell, we brought in some ourselves. One a damn all American that put up similar numbers to our best player last year. Now Foxhall, his ass is worthless IMO. But I said that last year while everybody defended him. This year, we've flipped the roster and cut loose recruits to better fill needs. Hard to complain about that.Quote:

Yep. If you can't multitask with the other elite recruiters then find something else to do.Quote:

Hmm, Just read about him, sounds like the modern mental kids companies have in HR nowadays. Hard Pass.Quote:

Last year we were a pull heavy 3 run home run team with a depleted by injury pitching staff.Quote:

Only at State could a team win a National Championship and require a complete program rebuild a year later. SMH. Our athletics program is a joke.
Our baseball program needs to learn how to be champions. By that I mean learn how to win where we are built for long term annual success and not one special year. Hopefully we've done that.Quote:

Not as much as I spent on those Royal Reds Saturday nightQuote:

Injuries were a significant factor but the biggest thing is that our pitching staff, even with the guys that stayed healthy, just underperformed and were obviously underdeveloped. Cade Smith may be the only guy on the staff that you can say was better than the year before.Quote:

anything else coming? Hell A&M and and TN were still playing and getting kids…
What about the kids from Tulane? The AF guy? The Vandy guy? I mean what is everyone hearing!
Trying to get Skeene to visit. A lot of the other like Groff we're fine but he's evaluating how things look in the draft.Quote:
