What I tell everyone during a blow out is that there's a fairly straightforward way to stop it, it's called get the other team out.

We've got a young, young team loaded with talent, and he's been here a long time as HC. I'm hoping he's developed some affection for us. :ohdear:

Someone on Twitter says that CU has a 'yes' in hand already but they don't know who it is. I'd find it hard to believe KOS had time to interview/negotiate/accept during our run right now.

Maybe they're digging Monte Lee out of CofC--he's done a great job here.



E: Just double-checked. He spent 9years at Clemson, and this is his 8th year as HC at UF. I'm not sure why he's such a foregone conclusion for Clemson fans.

Views: gently caress Texas A&M

Honestly, the series could go either way this weekend. Both the frogs and aggies have habits of having a defensive collapse in one random inning that destroys the game. TCU was able to miraculously come back from one, but for my heart's sake that shouldn't happen this weekend.

Jon Harris looked unhittable for the first 3 innings for you guys, but my Hogs seem to have figured him out the second time through the order.

I mean, it's ridiculous. The only criticism you could really level at O'Connor is that his teams haven't gotten to Omaha quite as often as the talent on them shouldbut then this rear end of a team comes along and blows away a whole regional's worth of strong California teams plus a very talented Maryland team that would've won the Big Ten in most years. Weird sport. (By the way Terps: thanks for taking out UCLA, signed, everyone else in NCAA.)

Pretty sure the Cavs get trucked at the CWS, but what do I know.

I hope to god Clemson doesn't hire Lee, because I really want him back at Carolina if/when Holbrook inevitably flames out. It'd suck hard for them to get a guy who used to be on our staff and is a rising star to boot.

The end of that game was completely loving bonkers. A gimpy leg PH hammering a dinger in the top of the 9th to tie it for ULL, and LSU coming right back in the bottom with a shot to almost the same place.

All of this in driving rain in a packed stadium. Criminy.
