We weren't better. We were almost identical in most statistical categories. Difference was a lot more K's and HRs.

Made it per-game for all comparisons. Cause more games, MSU is not going to play 68 games this year, just 56.
Yeah, baseball and life does not work on averages and normal distributions. You would need to factor out SEC only, Friday Only, Friday-Saturday Only, eliminate SWAC, bracket by RPI opponent.
Bottom line, lots of major declines. The mirror image of MSU's declines are Texas A&M improvements.
TAM (per game) is scoring 22.4% more, 16.0% more hits, 30.4% more 2B, 15.4% more HR, 16.5% more BB
Basically, MSU scored less runs and prevented less runs, generally. You get lots of loses and pain.
Tennessee was a good offensive team last year, CWS and SECT Runner Up, they improved by significant margins. So, it's not like they were horrible and now reverting to a mean performance level.
So, are we getting Tommy White??
I got the per-game comparison. The reason I pointed it out was that our offense was pretty strong in the post season - other than in Hoover. We had 27 2B and 15 HR in 12 games and scored 7.9 runs a game - a full run more than we averaged in the regular season. We scored 381 runs in regular season in '21 compared to 389 in '22. That's 6.80 runs per game to 6.94 - so we actually had a slight increase not your 22.4% decrease.
Ultimately, any way you look at it we didn't do what we need to win, and that has to change for next year.
So, are we getting Tommy White??
👆what he ask anybody know?
We are still getting Tommy White. We got into a small bidding war with Florida St and Miami which we easily won. The only real competition was Florida Southwestern State College (JUCO) bc he could be drafted this time next year in the early first round.
You can thank the silent big money alumni boys of the construction industry for getting the NIL money where we needed to be. it's over $500k. FSU and Miami could barely get to half of that.
to recap: nothing has changed, you can wrap Tommy in maroon and white
LOL This sounds eerily just like the Napier deal.
Isn't believe the deadline July 1? If so,we have a few weeks for decisions to be made.
We "easily" outbid Miami and FSU? Yeah now I know this isn't true...
