I think you are right that we probably have the best pitching depth we've ever had by far. And we have DBo - for whom the hype is appropriate IMHO.
BUT so do other teams with COVID extra years and the reduced MLB draft. College baseball is supposed to have the highest caliber players ever because of it. Pitching depth is part of the reason unranked UCF took the weekend series from #1 (for now) Ole Miss.
Here's who we have available today (depending on who travelled and assuming Friday pitchers aren't). This is obscene depth.
