    Chances the season ends above, at, or below .500

    Stadium and fans are great but going forward it’s going to be NIL/money in baseball too because other schools have so much alumni money/resources that if the athletic admin wants to emphasize baseball they will get players like Tennessee this year.

    MBB: Brian Hamilton of The Athletic ranks Power 6 Coaching Hires...

    I am afraid we are getting the reputation of not having competitive NIL opportunities and that speaks to his statement on fan and administration desire and interest. That’s going to become more and more of a problem in all sports if something doesn’t change. Bottom line is going to be no matter...

    Basketball defense

    It’s not our players, it’s the defensive scheme as we almost always choose to double the pass into the post or double team the drive into the post which when that is all you do, the offense can practice to execute kick outs quickly to create open 3 looks. Some opponents make a lot of those and...

    When you mostly emphasize pass blocking run blocking suffers. Where is Heath also?

    Buildings on Campus

    From all the comments below you can group all the ones built from mid-60’s to late 70’s. Closely resembling mid century modern commercial modular architecture. The school was really growing from early 60’s thru 70’s. It’s interesting to tie in some societal history relevant to when certain...

    Bad decision

    Strange he didn’t bring in Macleod to face the 2 lefties to start inning. Too big a moment for Stinnett.

    New Restaurant coming to Starkville - Taste (Roy Oswalt owned)

    We laughing at OM ..

    Attendance and atmosphere are great but it’s time we prioritize player talent. Scholarship creativeness is very important as we are falling behind in offensive talent. Private schools and lottery state schools are really benefiting with bigger scholarships.

    We have to start recruiting some of these guys Arkansas finds!

    last regular season game thread

    So we’re 4-5 on game 3 in SEC and 15-5 on first 2 games. Wow. Says a lot about our lack of a game 3 starter. Others also have this problem but they have the ability to out hit the teams on Sunday. We don’t.

    last regular season game thread

    Fristoe must really improve before next year or we are in trouble. In reality, several of our pitchers have digressed over the course of the season and he is definitely one.
