Hi, yes, hello, I'm here and still recovering from Sat.

I would love to read more analysis like this from umpires. It's one thing to watch games and evaluate, it's another to scout, but it has to be completely different to be hearing what batter and catcher are saying while watching the pitches come in.
-
I love that Javy tagged him out and punched him out before the umpire reacted.

Jesus, Charleston Southern may be without 30 scholarship players for their game against us (FSU). FCS schools only have 63 on scholarship, and they already lost their RB and QB to injury. This won't end well. I have to think there will be a running clock the whole game, if there is a game.

Assuming Schwarber recovers to the point he can play in the OF again. I don't think that's, that big of a concern I'm less worried since he has a pro team rehab staff working to get him back, but he wasn't the most mobile before, and it typically takes 2 years to get the "trust" back in your body (from all reports).

College Baseball 2015

If, in 14 years this site has provided me with nothing else, the d1baseball.com knowledge is quite possibly the best thing I've gotten. :clapping: -

Maybe so. The conference teams seem to be investing a little more money in baseball these days. TV money in the last few years probably has something to do with it. I've always wondered why ESPN never ponied up to show much college baseball and left it to regional networks. Heck, it's almost impossible to find results on ESPN for it either. -
To my understanding, it was just one person who had an issue, not the entire team. But I'm sure we're still the worst. :roll:

And I feel even dirtier defending the TPD. Those guys are the scum of the earth who are more likely to railroad an innocent bystander than to find people who committed actual crimes.
-
I probably should, but it pisses me off that people want to ruin a 20 year old kid's life over something that didn't happen, all because of a racist father. Few people in the media have picked up on the fact that maybe, just maybe, he didn't do it, and that we shouldn't rush to judge all situations. To add in the fact that he's blaming a coach who has a history of tossing people off the team (and questioning a schools integrity from top to bottom) is ridiculous.

For me it was the getting away with rape, overall culture, overrated aspect of things. But you make a good point. FSU and OSU have much more in common than they don't. You keep insisting on rape, and there's no evidence to support it. Are you hiding it somewhere? And the culture? Jimbo has kicked many kids off the team or benched them for other issues. He's stuck by players who were later exonerated, yet the media gives him no credit for doing so, only crying about "the culture." lol- He [expletive] a mostly unconscious drunk girl who had defensive wounds on her body. Those are the facts. I call it rape, you can call it whatever you like. Except according to toxicology reports she wasn't drunk and had no other drugs in her system.

Advanced metrics are fine. But that's not how the teams are picked. The way the teams are currently picked for the playoffs, FSU was clearly one of the 4 teams that deserved to be in. I don't have a problem with FSU being in the playoff, I'm just answering your question. By virtue of a pretty crazy series of close wins against a middling schedule they were an undefeated power conference champion. They should have been one of the 4 teams even if on paper they're closer to 10 than 4. And their indignant fans really made a show of ignoring any evidence that they were not good and are hateable. #FSUtwitter On that point, I'll agree - the #FSUtwitter people can die in a fire

Not enough space on the internets to describe all of the things we did wrong last night. A few things go differently, and it's a good game. We couldn't stop them on offense, but we were limiting possessions and giving our D adequate rest - and then the avalanche of turnovers happened. Best kicker in CFB? Missed a FG before the half. Top 10 CFB WR? Missed an easy catch before the kick to end the half. Best TE in CFB? Gets hurt during warm ups. Can't execute and get red zone TDs against Oregon? Bad. That having been said, Oregon played very well. I was surprised that they were in sync from the get-go, as I thought their timing would be a bit off. Between that and how physical they were, I was impressed. Jameis had a very solid game, other than the fumble. That was just ridiculous, like the entire night.

The "going to get my AK" line could be the funniest thing I've heard in a while.

Muschamp should have went for the job and south carolina. Would have been a great HC job for him to get the inside track on. Still a big time program but not quite the circus that the other big SEC programs are. I agree on that one. I'm just not sure that Spurrier's ego could have taken on Boom. It might also be familiarity, since Boom coached at Auburn once before, IIRC. Auburn is going to be a real threat now too. He will win a NC at Auburn before he ever would have at SC. No doubt. That's a powerhouse team. From a fan of a team in another conference, I'm glad they are in the same division as Bama.

I mean, $1.6M for an assistant is crazy. Very few schools can do that. But Muschamp would have been crazy to take the Houston job. If he were to flame out there, he wouldn't get another HC job again. Now, he can take all the money that Auburn will throw at him, and someone will take a shot at him again in a few year. I'm hoping it's Muschamp vs. Smart in a death-match battle for the UGA job when they (finally) get rid of Mark Richt.
-
the story on Bielema was that he was upset that he couldn't keep assistants because they wouldn't pay them anything. Surprising. I would have thought that Wisconsin would have enough money to pay relatively well.
-
This has just been a great week for Michigan. I don't care that he turned us down just greatly disappointed at the caliber coach we apparently offered the job to. To be fair, there aren't many up-and-coming coaches out there at this point. It's a shallow pool, and the top-tier guys are pretty tied to existing positions that are quality programs, or are already in a better spot than Michigan to win now and land a better spot as other positions open. I like Michigan, so I hope they don't try to go after Lane Kiffin. That's just another disaster waiting to happen.
-
I dislike the idea of 8 teams, but every team is going to have an off week and lose - it's just the slim odds of going undefeated. If, and it's a big if, the playoffs go down to 8 teams, they need to drop a game during the season. It's ridiculous to have these kids play up to 15 games per year.
-
Maybe someday another top team will be undefeated and dropped from #1 without losing. Until then, we'll just keep winning, unlike everyone else. If/when we beat UF, do we get recognition for beating an SEC team? Or does it not count since they suck for the most part?

Don't sully the issue with facts. Say two people who didn't read the article
