How many times have we hit batters with pitches and how many wild pitches has our staff thrown? Said it earlier this season that we are going to have to win games via low scoring football type games. Brutal lack of division one level pitching.

Dead last in conference ERA at plus 6.

Dead last in the Sun Belt in ERA. If we don’t score 8-10 runs a game, we are in trouble.

Are we including Bobby Cremins hmmmmm …. In my time in watching App state basketball, I would put it as this... Cremins Kerns Buzz 1st time Fancher Buzz 2nd time (just in terms of coaching that team -- not what he did to the program after) Cantwell/Apke (both the same in my book) Capel/Fox (same as...

We are 5-6 in conference play. Three of our series have been against teams with losing records and Coastal is only 6-5.

Kevin got fired after that season if memory serves. Tom had success fairly early but the last years were painful. Good guys though.

Things went South for Apke the last two years. He also had the misfortune of being at App during ETSU’s hey day.

Texas State is not the powerhouse we thought they were, apparently.

My understanding is that neither Wright nor McHugh has done much to give a great deal of confidence to their status as the backup.

Who are the APP baseball announcers on ESPN+ ?

Matt Present does PBP. He has experience calling minor league games in Florida at the AAA level. He’s also the radio guy for men’s basketball.

Only 3-8 on the night…UGLY Tuesday! BUT, we won handily! Gotta love that!

The conference played four P5 programs and took a pretty solid beating in each of them.

Has their coach publicly announced that he is coming back? Surprisingly, I don't believe there has been any type of announcement :lol: The only announcement myself and others expect is a reworked contract with Kerns. According to online articles he was only paid 325k plus incentives. He needs to be...

Any word on the search to fill the vacancy?

Didn’t Burns play his double A ball at Winthrop ?

Yes. Started at UT, then Winthrop, and finally State.

The only communication that I would expect is if there is an extension to his contract. He still has two years left so it isn’t necessarily going to be done. While it might provide stability, I don’t necessarily believe that it will be a factor in some guys taking their names out of the portal. It ...

Nineteen of the 40 starters in the elite 8 began their careers somewhere other than the team they started for this weekend.

Did anyone other than Duke have all original starters?

Tennessee had 4 originals. Purdue might have 5. I should have posted the link.

Spillers has Wake and LSU among his schools.

In his entire coaching career of seven years, he has had only one losing season, and that was his first season. He took over a program that was in dire straits and proceeded to provide five years of at least .500 ball each season. He has secured three postseason berths in that time, though no wins i...

Maybe he didn’t get the offers we thought he would.

I certainly could be proven wrong, but I never thought he was the hot commodity some have thought. Certainly not for any high profile job.
