West Virginia one inning away from not having to face one of the 15 hosts ranked in front of them to reach the finals in Omaha should they make it that far (and with a chance of none if OU does likewise).

Scott Drew is tweeting how lucky their draw has been.

Tarheels survive along with a semblance of sanity on that side of the bracket.

UNC was awesome. Georgia and Miss State entertaining too.

LOL sorry Trev wasnt able to get a person to stay who didnt want to be here




It's insane that people still think Trev is at fault.


"At fault" is probably over-stating.
But the move Trev made seemed to be more about holding a Natty runner-up team together very late in the cycle, and just crossing his fingers it maybe had some longer term potential.

And yeah….that move is questionable. Even more so now, in hindsight.

Oh, they can blame him all they want for Earley.

I mean blaming him for POS leaving.

Trev didn't fumble anytime, genius. POS QUIT and there was nothing Trev could do to stop it, nothing.

That is utterly false. In fact, the lack of movement on building additional seating was as likely a cause as anything else.

Now was the former head coach being reasonable or looking for excuses? Don't know. Kind of like Gillispie leaving because ground wasn't broken on what we now think of as Cox-McFerrun Center for Basketball…

Byrne was concerned we would not be able to retain Gillispie he shared in a private email with me. I didn't have any other background than that, though.

They are way better than us. I have been an early supporter but I'm at the end of the road. He couldn't get the most out of this group and that is his job.

Wrong. Schloss was leaving EVEN IF WE WON THE CWS.

Absolutely he was. Another reason he checked out during the CWS. He was already viewed as a total POS (and rightly so) for doing what he did. Can you imagine doing the same having won a natty and immediately bolting for the arch rival?

Me too Doc. My Aggie son and I live for Aggie Baseball. We actually sat in front of you and Mrs DermDoc at the CWS whorn game in 22. Nice time visiting with you both.

To add insult, today is 2 years that we clinched our return to the CWS. On top of the world. Headed back to the promise land with a coach who had IT. Never thought those next 3 weeks would come to where we are today.

Earley was a desperation move. Here we are. Maybe next year he finds his groove

Ole Miss and Troy earned it by winning multiple road games vs. 1-seeds

West Virginia:

4-seed Binghamton
3-seed Kentucky
2-seed Wake Forest
3-seed Kentucky
3-seed Kentucky
3-seed Cal Poly
3-seed Cal Poly

not so much


To be fair WVU was the one seed so it's not their fault they played lower seeds in the regional round. But yes, they certainly got lucky to get such a huge upset with their pairing and host a 3 seed in the supers.

A&M in 2017 probably played the same seeds or worse on their road to Omaha


Actually we might have had an even easier road because Dividson iirc was a 4

Just like they blame him for Buzz leaving. Even though it was obvious he was setting it up to bolt.

I don't spend any time in the basketball forum. People blame him for Buzz leaving?

Buzz has said publicly that he doesn't like coaching at a place more than 5-6 years and implied he got out before he could be fired. Good for him, I say. He knows the game.

We were the three seed in the Houston Regional. We had to beat UH (1), Baylor (2), and Iowa (4), one of the better fours in the tournament.

He had already said "yes." Perhaps before t.u. fired Pierce, even. Perhaps long before. Trev said he had stopped bothering to show up to meetings.

That is correct. But there is, for the most part, a different tone in this forum. Everybody is not trying to prove they are right about everything.

In my experience, that makes them even madder.
And a lot of folks don't like truth.

derm, I'm right there with you.

I hope he has the pitching coach already lined up, where as soon as the CWS is over, we can make the announcement, and it being (hopefully) a splash hire, with some portal pitching jumping in the boat.

Then, hopefully our recruits we signed stay with their commitments to us and jump in the boat.

I believe with what we have and what will be added (hopefully) will replenish what will walk out the turnstile.

THATS, what I'm hoping is we pull in recruits, development into high draft picks and turn them out to the pros.

Hey, wish in one hand and carp in the other--see which one fills up fastest.

. What if it is the Troy pitching coach?

I have had several pms from posters who literally hated my guts 10-20 years ago for my posts. And now agree with me and thank me.

The committee had the SEC set up to be 2 on one side and 3 on the other. You can't blame them for upsets that created 4 & 1.
