Trey Young averages 36.5% 3 point range as one example of your point - so yes, that would be a good GT asset!

I would add Riley Stanford to the list of pitchers who will likely contribute significantly out of the pen - you could see his potential in his first-ever GT outing this weekend. He has good shut-down potential from the mound...

I'm in the weather-driven bucket too - live in Alpharetta area and retired two years ago - travel a lot (@Braves Spring Training all March) but will be at any good weather games my schedule allows otherwise. Traffic can be a bit of a hassle but logistics are pretty easy in the big picture. All...

This may be the best post thus far in 2024...at least it gets my nomination...

Two notes on this topic - 1) The whole reason KQ publishes to YT is to better market his paid Rivals subscription so it is odd he can't figure out how to edit out those first few minutes of awkward silence/key board typing - easy enough for all of us to FF through but seems silly on his part to...

Agreed that is a legit way of looking at it but from another view FSU was completely inept from an offensive perspective (unlike the OSU example from a few years back when they showed their O could still function in spite of going with a 3rd-string QB). So personally, I think FSU doomed...

My understanding of NIL is there is purposefully very little transparency with any of the figures with any program. Numbers get thrown around on social media but there is no way of verifying any of the numbers other than through personal/comfidential sources close to each collective. The whole...

Clearly DBo didn't work out overall but I know multiple kids who worked with him in the minors and/or at GT who loved his approach and felt he helped them. Many of our pitchers this year publicly stated as much. However, I don't believe DBo had much, if any, experience calling pitches in game...

Interesting graph for sure so thanks for sharing. To your point on the importance of pitching in conference and tourney play. It would be interesting to look specifically at pitching recruits only for PG ratings. I mention this as my hypothesis would be our pitching recruiting has not been as...

Indeed - giving up 24 runs only means we don't have enough pitching depth for three b2b games and will obviously kill our team ERA stat. But the primary reason we lost this series was our lack of timely hitting on Saturday. Actually our pitching on Fri and Sat showed significant improvement...

Agreed - the team ERA continues to look rough but doesn't tell the whole story so far this season. It sure feels like we have more hope on the mound this season as compared to last season. If the kids mentioned above can continue to trend in a positive direction we could end up with a...

Agree with this - not clear on likelihood of Hill or McGwire coming back this season but if they can, we could be better than .500. If not we'll likely finish below .500 in ACC unless another starter (or two) develops into that role quickly...

Not worried about this as most P5 programs want to hire a coach with previous HC experience - as GT should strongly consider. So it's most likely he'd go to a G5 program, get some HC experience and then be an even better candidate to come back to GT as HC... At least that's one theory which...

Love to hear it - love it when anyone beats those cocky bastards...won't ever forget the finger flip...

CDH lives in the neighborhood next to ours and we know many of his neighbors. From everything I have heard from his neighbors, he is 100% baseball with no hobbies and no plans or desire to retire in the near future. Of course I realize he may not share retirement plans with neighbors but there...

I'm not a CDB fan based on very poor results to-date but agree we should acknowledge the good with the bad. Busse has been lights out and he clearly credits CDB with making some adjustments to his pitching with "taking him to the next level" from his previous team.

Heard we shouldn't expect to see him to pitch this season.

Agreed - this is by far the best board for GT Baseball - more "constructive" or statistics-based input vs having to weed through all the name calling, personal attacks and off topic commentary on JOL.

Not defending the decision but at least now understand CDH's logic with the slow hook. He clarified in the post game interview they were trying to "stretch him out" with more pitches in a game situation. Seems a bit bizarre to me given the potential negatives with this approach (injuries more...
