    Any early guesses on the starting lineup next year? My guess at this point would be Morgan, Johnson, Dunn, Blackshear and one of the two freshman bigs Bediako or Thomas. From what I have read Thomas is probably more ACC ready.

    Golf team starting strong

    Our Tech golfers starting strong at the ACC tournament today. Currently we are at -12 and in first place. Wake is one stroke behind at -11 followed by UVA at -9.

    I like this lineup of starting pitchers much more than who we trotted out last weekend. At least it gives us a fighting chance. Sure not having our normal closer is a bit scary but with the way our starting pitching has been we haven't had the chance to even use Busse in any meaningful capacity...

    Curious why the no contact designation. Perhaps she wants to go to a specific grad school following her degree at Tech and will use basketball to pay for it?

    As a grad transfer does she really need to enter the portal? Isn't she free to transfer anywhere of her choosing anywhere?

    Doesn't Howard lose a year of eligibility if he transfers since he already transferred once to come to us?

    We actually have a pretty strong record this year when ahead after both the 7th and 8th innings. We haven't blown too many save opportunities with Busse as our closer. Our problem is we aren't very good at coming back to win when being behind after 7 or 8 innings. Tonight we were able to screw...

    I think they were actually SEC announcers. I've heard the play by play guy on several SEC broadcasts before. Early in the game they mentioned they were originally slated to call the UK vs. Louisville game that got cancelled due to the shooting in Louisville yesterday. I noticed they were both...

    Does Hall's age hurt recruiting

    I would agree but the one problem with that philosophy is if you strike out in the portal one year you have nobody waiting in the wings.

    Damon Stoudamire

    I think posters on here just fear the unknown and project that as some sort of possible or potential failure. People need to remind themselves that just because we don't know something doesn't necessarily mean it is cause for concern. For all we know he has already gotten commitments for his...

    Which would seem to indicate tampering by whichever team she ends up with but will anything come of that? Of course not. Wherever she ends up I'm sure there is a nice NIL package waiting for her.

    Does Hall's age hurt recruiting

    What a ridiculous question. We have had top ten recruiting classes three years in a row for both position players as well as pitchers. So no his age doesn't hurt our recruiting. Does Nick Saban's age hurt recruiting at Alabama? Of all the questions to point toward our poor performance our...

    First of all I disagree with your assessment of Otene. I think she plays with great power. I agree about Bertolino, she tends to play more of a finesse game. On her national team I think she plays libero. As far as other outside possibilities I think either Mikayla White or Leia Harper could...

    We have Otene, D'amico, Bertolino and Pimentel back. I think Laura Fischer will play outside and middle at 6'3". Plus we have DeAndra Pierce who transferred from Texas to play the middle. I think everyone worries because we lost an All American player that we will not be able to recover. There...

    You make a good point. UNC's offense relies a lot on the long ball. When Brown is on he gets a lot of ground balls since his stuff generally stays low in the zone. If we can take the home runs away from their offense we stand a much better chance of winning.

    I did see a brief hype video from the Volleybees account and it looked like there was a good crowd there. Would be nice if someone who was there could fill us in.

    I guess they want to keep Schmolke and Finley on the same Fri/Sat schedule but I would feel much better moving them both up one day and going with Brown on Saturday. I always thought the logic for your series opener was to start your best arm and get the series started with a win. I feel like...

    Reading the posts above leaves me a little confused. We are currently at .500 in conference at about the halfway point. I think some of you live in some kind of alternate reality and forget that we had to replace our entire weekend rotation along with six of our position players. Coming into the...

    Reading between the lines in the post game presser it sounds like the plan was to just go one inning for some live competition before getting back in the rotation for this weekend's series. My guess is we will see Schmolke, Finley and McGuire in that order. If Logan has the same kind of stuff...

    I read somewhere that we hosted several teams last week for some volleyball scrimmages. Anyone hear how did? Who had outstanding perfomances for us? Wondering how some of the newcomers performed also.
