    College World Series

    Davis is defensively one of the best 1st basemen in my memory at UL

    College World Series

    Exactly; Miami hitters were as formidable as any opponent that we have faced. There are no teams left that can be overlooked; just look at the “so-called upsets” that have already taken place thus far for further evidence of just how unpredictable college baseball is today. We gave up 10 runs to...

    Vince Marrow To UofL

    College Football recruiting is uniquely different from that of College Basketball. While both are definitely influenced by the success (or lack thereof) from NIL and the Portal, the differential in the roster numbers alone makes it necessary for Football recruiting to identify potential talent...

    Come on Racers!

    I think the outrage over the 13 SEC teams being selected is a lot more prolific than we know, as many sports analysts are publicly directing their criticism to the overt bias and influence that ESPN has displayed for several years towards the SEC. There are countless baseball teams who were...

    Since no one else...Wr. St gm 3

    CDM has mentioned several times “the chip on this team’s shoulder” over being snubbed by the NCAA last year and the departures that could be interpreted as disloyal. I suspect there are a lot of details that we will never hear, but those left out of Omaha must be thinking what it would be like...

    To everyone that has posted in the baseball threads this season

    CR: I have posted twice on this site expressing to some degree the same sentiments. In fact, I specifically apologized to Roger, Dan and this UL Baseball Team, acknowledging my own shame in suggesting “they had lost it”. However, I avoided the same criticism to individual players like EK Jr...

    Vince Marrow To UofL

    This started several years ago, back when Jeff was at Purdue, long before Jeff was hired here. I remember sources telling me that Vince was seriously considering leaving UK, based primarily on his strong relationship with Jeff. Some will suggest it is tied to Stoops loss of fan support and UK’s...

    Super Regional Game 3

    At this point it doesn’t matter! The UNC series tells me a lot about college baseball; the most talented and the most favored are guaranteed nothing; I am just happy to be in Omaha!!!

    Super Regional Game 3

    Despite several unnecessary walks at the worst possible time; we come up with the best win of the year. It was close, but we advance when others fail. So proud of where we came from just a few weeks ago.

    Super Regional vs Miami

    No Bardman; despite the walks, HBPs and base running mistakes yesterday, we are playing at home with a great chance to advance to Omaha. That is only possible because this staff and these kids have rebounded from disappointing performances all season. Can anyone say honestly, that after losing...

    Super Regional Game 3

    Agreed, this team is as good offensively and defensively as any team left in the tournament. If we pitch like we did in Nashville, we win.

    Vangelis Zougris Officially Signs With Cards

    There were so many good candidates out there when Josh started his search for HC hire, that looking back at that point in time, I had no clue as to just how perfect Pat Kelsey was for UL. Obviously every program must have the money to even participate in NIL for talent, but Pat is the one...

    Super Regional vs Miami

    Getting out of those early jams shows the level of confidence on the part of this staff, and maturity from the rotation that was missing at times during the regular season. Amazing how much Dan and Roger have learned so much about baseball 😉over this regular season. Seriously, I cannot believe...

    Mr. Kentucky Baseball

    Nick Ballard of Manual is another UL Pitching signee who is rehabbing from earlier surgery, but should be good to go this Fall. Also a 400+ Hitting average.

    NCAA Enforcement

    It is not possible, even for someone my age (75) to go back to 1906, the time in which the NCAA was created. However, most history accounts identify Teddy Roosevelt’s influence in the creation of the organization was in large point to protect amateur athletics. With that said, you are correct...
