I have no doubt it happens at some schools. When you say you have personally sat in a meeting and heard it said was that at Georgia Tech? And if so, who was the player that was told to? If you are going to make claims like that please provide specifics otherwise it just sounds like something...

It sounds like you are saying he left because they didn't promise him he was going to be a starter. If that's the case, then I'm not that sorry he left. Starting positions have to be earned, not given. If I was a coach and a kid came to me and said he wanted to be a starter I would say good then...

Isn't there also new NCAA roster reductions this year now that the extra Covid year has expired? Much of the movement may be due to the new lower roster numbers and Hall needing to make room for the incoming freshman class. I'm sure some of the moves are players seeking greener pastures but a...

One thing we have going for us in regard to keeping Faukner on board is he is really a die hard Georgia boy. Grew up and played and coached in Gwinnett county. Has kids in school nearby. And has an offense loaded with talent and a lot of young talent. As mentioned he has some talented...

Interesting point. I wonder if Stanford and Cal will improve quickly as those California kids realize that they could be playing in the ACC now, while representing their home state's schools.

Certainly sounds like someone with an axe to grind. Brand new poster so it could also be an existing poster with a new profile with an axe to grind. Maybe it's our ex pitching coach? With the name Shanna it sounds like a female, maybe a girlfriend at Tech who is upset her boyfriend has to...

So does that count as a sacrifice fly since Simpson scored as a result of the fly ball?

I missed that. Did he really do it because he kept screwing up? Usually an umpiring crew has a crew chief, could he have been the one to yank the guy behind the plate? I know the announcers receive Trackman data real time during the game and are able to confirm if ball/strike calls are accurate...

What was O'Connell thinking in the bottom of the 9th for UVA. Why in the world would he pitch to Honeycutt with 2 outs and a man on 3rd? He is UNC's most clutch hitter by far and his run means nothing. Just give him the intentional walk which gives you a force at 2nd anyway and pitch to the next...

I don't see how anybody, much less someone in the notoriously expensive and massively taxed state of California, lives "comfortably in the current economic state of our country on $76k. But I guess that might depend on your definition of comfortable.

But how does that lifestyle change when the money goes down to less than $4.5 million per year. I saw a chart that listed all of the federal, state and local taxes he would be subjected to by living in LA. It said that a whopping 52% would go to taxes. That changes the math a bit. He would be...

They are probably saying the same about Drew Burress.

I believe this was all a ploy by Hurley and his agent and he never really considered going to LA. Keep in mind he had a new contract offer on the table at UCONN but he hadn't signed it. Then someone (probably his agent) let it be known that he hadn't signed the deal. After previously turning...

Maybe he made it known he wasn't interested in us. Sometimes a brother doesn't want to follow in his brother's footsteps. They prefer to follow a different path.

Everyone talking about the number of transfers we will have ponder this. If CDH is forced to "retire" as many of you are calling for, we would see a massive number of players in the portal....unless we immediately announce his replacement is CJR and even then I believe a lot of players' loyalty...

Thanks for the update. I must have missed the injury update on Vaughn. If I'm not mistaken I think I have seen Craska in the dugout this year. Don't remember seeing Vaughn. I remember seeing Craska in some homer hitting contests with Burress his senior year of high school. Dude has some serious...

The foreign leagues can be very lucrative for some players. Often times the team/club they play for cover their lodging. And depending on where they play the tax situation can be much better than playing here in the states. I don't think there is anything wrong with any player pursuing their...

What happened to Jackson Vaughn? He wasn't even on our roster this year. Other than possibly Busse, I don't think the others were probably going to play much of a role next year. I'm sure there will be several more after the season is over. Don't the roster limits get reduced next year?

Win the first game and gain a little momentum. Then you never know. We have taken two from some other top ten teams this year so it's not impossible.

I mentioned earlier how CDH likes to pull out a bullpen arm in the regional to start. Of course I had no idea that it would be the first game. When Thomas is on he is hard to hit. Let's hope he is on and he is in the strike zone. Sorry Gt beak I posted this before I saw your post. Not trying to...
