  1. I saw that, but not sure if it tells us anything.
  2. AU 4, Bammer 3. Had 'em 4-0 going into the top of the 7th and had to hang on. Once again, another hit here or there and we are up several more runs. Bunting is fine if you have good hitters coming up behind the bunter. Having you best stick bunt with two runners on doesn't make any sense to me.
  3. Let me get this straight: The schools are to pay previous athletes for what NIL money they would have received had the NIL been in place when they played? How much will we owe Pat Sullivan's heirs? Bo Jackson? Cam Newton? Who will decide what a former athlete would have been worth in NIL dollars? This whole thing seems preposterous, but then there are preposterous things happening every day on this scale and larger. These are sad times for college athletics. We are witnessing first hand the Law of Unintended Consequences.
  4. Well then, will Aden Holloway have to sit a year at bammer? If not, why not?
  5. Mike Donohue, Shug Jordan, Pat Dye. Take your pick. All were great.
  6. Were I a coach at a G-5 school I think I'd look for another job opportunity. Imagine beating the bushes and finding a diamond in the rough only to have the rich boys come in and plunder your team. That would be the pits.
  7. I'll miss seeing Stackhouse and his cool collection of suits on the sidelines.
  8. Another step towards Who Gives a Crap.
  9. I saw that team play several times. A's owner Charles O. Finley was from B'Ham and he loaded that team up with the best players the organization had. Many of the regulars on the Oakland A's Major league championship teams of 1972-'73-'74 passed through B'Ham on their way up.
  10. This season is on Dean and it started way before February. It started last fall when he couldn't keep his team together. The Big Bopper Bri Ellis is hitting for a high average and had 14 homers at Arky the last time I looked. Jessi Blane was hitting 350 and had 6 homers at Moo State. Denver Bryant was at 300 batting average with something like ten doubles at So. Carolina. At the moment I'm forgetting someone else, a former AU starter who is succeeding elsewhere. Put those four back in the lineup with our pitching and we're a good team. Dean had to GO!
  11. This team is simply snake bit. Yes, it happens. Some seasons there are teams with good personnel and coaching that just cant find the wins. Other seasons teams with a not so great lineup end up at or near the top. It's not a usual occurrence but if you hang around baseball long enough you'll see both sides of it. I just wish it wasn't happening to AU this year.
  12. Not evil, incompetent. Afghanistan, the southern border, inflation, the list goes on.
  13. It's an out and can ruin a potential scoring situation, as it did to Auburn last night. College players shouldn't leave early. They have enough experience to judge that.
