after only his second year as HC punches his ticket to the CWS. Pierce is a winner. Hey, I like David Pierce and I admit he is a winner but let's not act like getting UT to Omaha is a big deal. This will be their fourth CWS in ten years and twenty-sixth overall (more than any other school.) Their &...

Doug Mouton is the sports anchor for WWL-TV and he did the interview. It was five minutes long. It started with them talking about it being his 3rd year. he said he now knows the team ,the school, the city and the recruiting area. Mouton brought up about the players at last years preseason media co...

Congrats to the 'Horns and Coach Pierce and staff. He's obviously one hell of a coach.

Great video. Made me hungry!

Roll Wave!

Nice! Thanks for the update, ajc. Maybe TPS has the right tools to get it posted, he sometimes pulls off those miracles. AND/OR winwave will give us a transcript, as I'm sure he DVR'd it!

Did anyone capture the segment in a form that can be posted here? If so, thanks in advance for doing so!

ROLL WAVE!

Roger Clemens talks to the team: https://twitter.com/texasbaseball/status/1005217034177658880?s=21 I like how he talks about "controlled emotion". That's a stark contrast to the 'roid rage he displayed in the 2000 World Series and other times in his career. Pierce has done a great job at ...

That would be awesome, I'm sure we'd be competing at minimum for a regional most years.

I agree ajc.... The athletes being recruited think they're going to see significant playing time. They're the cream of the crop even if they only get mostly G5 offers. They represent the top 1 to maybe 2% of those playing their sport. They've proven their ability at the HS level and most are convinc...

I'm not saying we abandon the passing game and run 60 times, pass 10 times. I'm saying we cannot try to get into a shoot out with a team that was 17th in the nation in Total Offense and figures to be better this year. They run plays at about a 12 second interval, our D will be gassed by the start o...

It would be a fatal mistake to go back to our run centric ways. It failed and the staff finally recognized it and opened up the offense and we made a run at a Bowl game. This staff has the fundamentals and the discipline down pat. What they need to show is imagination and the willingness to take so...

I guess it shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise. He didn’t hit much at Tulane outside of his JR season and even then he wasn’t great. Getting traded to the Tigers probably wasn’t good for him. Astros are so much better at developing their guys. Yes, but on the heals of hitting .263 at low A and...

Well done, Mr. Daniels and his krewe. Good luck Tanner!

Chase Solesky is playing in the same league that Kody Hoese and Josh Bates are playing. The NECBL. He is playing for the Plymouth Pilgrims. His back is feeling ok for now Is that the same as the Cape Cod league? I know Plymouth is not on The Cape, but don't know if it's the same league. Heard a gre...

Hey, will one of you GIVE IT UP? winwave, this might be the thread to let someone else have the final say, right or wrong. Something many of us do with arguments with you, just to "stop the madness". Doing so would finally prove to the rest of us that you actually CAN let someone else have...

Cincy has a lot of talent that should be starting to blossom. .... they beat us last year in Fickell's first year with a garbage roster.....at home..... 38% is generous Memphis is returning almost everything but QB and RB.....most importantly Norvell is back....they might be beatable but 40% is too...

Since it's the doldrums of the offseason (cannot say summer up here yet!) I decided to take a look at some scouting reports of Wake Forest. The first I looked at was CFN: https://collegefootballnews.com/2018/04/preview-2018-wake-forest-demon-deacons According to CFN (and they don't even mention the ...

I hate to report this, but Rogers is off to a horrible start offensively at AA Erie this season. He's "on the Interstate" after 39 games (140 ABs) at .157 with 3 HR's and 13 RBI's. I hope he's able to make the adjustment to AA pitching, and continues his rise to "the Show." As I ...

Just think about the current NBA players that went to small schools that never really had an NBA star before. Have any of those schools really benefited from having one good player in the NBA? Thinking Davidson, which had a certain future NBA MVP taken (a whole lot higher than Melvin will be picked...

I thought you had to be 3 years removed from your HS graduating class if you didn't go pro after HS?

Isn't Hoese going to be a true Junior? I really don't know the rules any more.

My bad, Show Me, I thought he was a HS kid based upon the comment "he'd be better off coming to Tulane to improve his draft status". He is 21 years old, and was picked in the 32nd round by Milwaukee 3 years ago. So he improved by 26 rounds by spending a year at Nebraska and then going to J...

Nice response, MBA, and very accurate, I would think. Not sure that Scelfo had a big boost when he had a 1st round pick in 2002 and 2004. But I hear what you're saying.

The same way it helped Bob Toledo when Forte was drafted in the 2nd round and became an impact player his rookie season. Scratching my head at that one. Is this sarcasm? Didn't Toledo get fired a couple years later, which would imply his recruiting didn't get any boost from Forte in the NFL? I aske...

This will impact recruiting in a major way. That's been debated throughout this thread. I'm not sure it's really going to help, as his strongest point--playing D--is not anything that Dunleavy stresses. Dunleavy did improve his shot dramatically, but I don't know that Melvin going in the first roun...
