Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
Yea maybe. The saving grace is that while CC pitching gives up about 1 less run a game better than USM pitching (great), they don’t hit as well either… about .20 less on team ba and we have about 19 more extra base hits then they do.. course you have to make contact to get extra base hits.

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
We have to find a way to start hitting good pitching. Yes good pitching by definition, is good b/c they don’t give up lots of hits. Our top 5 or six hitters have to come through in these games. So far……. mostly crickets .

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
Besides the errors that hurt, we also walked 8 , so they had baserunners all the time…. they walked 0. Can’t do that and beat a good team.

Right now looks like two… Ahmani Marshal and Eli Wilson both to the Browns.

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
Bats have come out early and try to get an early lead…. be aggressive on the base paths… move runners over…. make them make some plays. Pitchers keep the ball away from the fat part of the bat… whether that’s in tight or out an away. Really have to play well defensively…. don’t be a hero… hit the cu...

Re: UCLA football
The deal that Joey Aguilar is finalizing to go to Tennessee is similar financially to the deal that he’d previously agreed to at UCLA, per ESPN sources. He had $1.2 million left at UCLA on his deal, and his new deal at Tennessee is close to that.

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
Injuries have hurt our 3rd pitching slot. Leaving too many men on base. Going to have to have a mindset of moving b.runners over earlier in the game… much like JMU did ….when we play CC and USM (1st + 3rd) in team ERA. We really need to at least split those series.

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
Just reviewing Nolan’s predictions for us and he has us taking 2/3 from JMU, beating ETSU, losing to Wake Forest, taking 2/3 from USM, losing all three to CC, 2/3 from SOAL and 2/3 from GAST…..had a finishing like 28-24 and 16-14…. which will not be easy. .. but when I went back to it .. it had chan...

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
Great comeback… we tried to give it away a couple of times lat in the 9th and 10th. These are the types of games you’ll have to play against better pitching teams. You’ll have to sacrifice more, steal more and bunt. I was really wondering why we waited so long to do it. Also why in the heck is Moqui...

Re: Another domino has fallen NIL
I guess I’d say that there will be times it “feels” like it. Just like there will always be structural differences between us and the Ohio States of the world, there are structural differences between us and the FCS. This is our place. Will we ever win a National Championship in football…. a resound...

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
Hi Happ! Yes today that’s probably true. But if the teams starts beating up everyone, I suspect that either GASO or Troy could be looking on the outside….. time will tell.. that’s why you play the games.

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
Think conference is rated about right. Unlikely to get multiple at-large bids. Much of the season last year the Belt had 6-8 teams in top 100 RPI…. not this year. Apps cannot win on the road and does not do well against the higher rated schools… not a good mix.

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
Yes we’re are a .500 team. Pitching is is pretty inconsistent (as are most college programs) the worst team ERA in the league, we are very inconsistent in the field second worst fielding pct (and errors) so it’s hard to overcome being so inconsistent with two of the three major skill categories in b...

Re: Pro Day 2025
Nice job AppStFan1… always enjoy the detail. By the way Phil Steele did select Jalen McLeod as 2nd team All SEC post season LB and Nate Noel 4th team…. Statistically they earned their money. I was surprised that Nate ran a 4.52… I think he played heavier at Mizzou than he did with us.

Re: Pro Day 2025
What we all need to remember in this “new world,” with the portal, we will lose the better athletes (more often than not) example Nate Noel and Jalen McLeod not to mention Joey Aguilar, who got an extra year due to community college……. Who all would have been here and driven more scouts here. The da...

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
These ranking were from 3/13 prior to the TXST series where TXST was 115….. we should definitely move up. Need to take care of Charlotte.

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
We were lucky tonight. Pitchers struggled with walks… both teams had 8 walks. We had two big double plays and they were like 1-9 with runners in scoring position. We certainly hit the ball well and several extra base hits. Will be interesting to see how Marks does tomorrow.
