Good detail, thanks. I find it interesting that the WHIP in 2024 matches that of 2021, yet our ERA is a full run per game higher. Trying to figure out how that can be.....

Is that ACC only or all games?

Our pitching has improved pretty dramatically as the year has progressed. We got three quality starts this weekend. If we do that the rest of the year, we'll be just fine and in the Tourney (somewhere). My hopes continue to rise as I see good pitching performance followed by good pitching...

It's all about the pitching.

I was hoping for Cam Hill tomorrow. I am not at all confidant with MsGee given his last couple of starts. Tomorrow is almost a must win for our post-season hopes.

Has there been a poll on this site about whether to weaken academic standards for football versus keeping strict standards and possibly being left out of "big boy" college football? I can tell there are supporters on both sides, but am curious as to whether it is close to 50-50 or not...

I would love ot see GT grow undergraduate enrollment. That's where you grow fans and fill stadium seats. not grad schools.

Cam, if he can maintain what he did last night would be a HUUUUUUUGE pickup for this team! OK<,I am getting too excited again. Stop, don't go there. Wait until it's in the bag before you get your hopes up.... I just LOVE good pitching.

1) any chance those signs are signaling in a defense? 2) one of my nightmares is losing to this guy

Agreed. There have ALWAYS been quality student athletes in college sports. But there have also been pure athletes who cared little about the academics. The topic is really about the balance between these two. Goiod schools have both. Factories do also, but have many more pure athletes and fewer...

Couldn't agree with you more strongly! I really think it is ALL about pitching to soft contact. I wonder of that is why Cam Hill, who clearly has great talent, is not being successful in college ball when he is lights out in Cape Cod? Maybe wooden bats and pitching strategies are different in...

So why didn't this guy from Colorado get more PT and score more? Must have some weaknesses somewhere....

Umm, I disagree. My Dad was a student at Tulane then and knew many of the football players. He described them as being "dumb as rocks" and recruited from places like Ohio (unusual back in the 30's) and had all kinds of 'help' to stay eligible in classwork. Sound at all familiar? I do agree that...

Truth. There has been cheating on that front for a minimum of 80 years now. Tulane had undefeated seasons...in the SEC...back in the 1930's. Two guesses how they did it. Their 3 SEC Championships are still more than 7 existing SEC schools.

This is about the point where my GT sports experience tells me that they will break my heart (again). Two ACC series wins in a row against ranked teams, getting back into possible post-season consideration, yeah...this feels like i felt when we were leading UGa 9-3 late.....this is where we'll...

I’m still doing that. Until our pitching improves. We have gotten 2 great starts and 2 horrid starts in our last 4 games. Don’t necessarily expect a lot more great starts, but this group MUST find a way to stop the horrid starts.

Jose is still fighting for minutes in the NBA because of his shooting.

And yet I cannot stand NFL football. Most games just don’t have the full game day experience of a good college football game with the bands, the tailgating, the traditions, etc. I must be the odd duck.

I think (as was said) he is there to learn what he needs to work on for next year. His outside shooting isn’t up to NBA standards and that will keep him in college another year. CDS will likely find an adequate 5 so he can get Ndongo more time away from the rim.

I wish I didn’t care. I am actually starting to feel the way I did at the end of the Hewitt tenure in basketball. And the C**lins era in football. In his last year I actually began rooting for humiliating defeats so the AD would finally have no choice about making a change. I hate feeling that...
