Congrats to Skip on getting the head job!Although I'm disappointed the Horns couldn't take two of three against LBSU, I am incredibly heartened by the fact that the future appears bright for the program.
I am still sad that Skip had to go but at least Augieball already feels like a distant memory.
Sorry, Bosoxen. You'll be seeing Skip in lots of Crimson and Cream! Head coach of the Sooners.... I wish more people went to the baseball games, but the softball team has been better than baseball for years so it tends to draw the bigger crowd. (Frankly, the baseball field is a better place to watch any kind of sport because it provides lots of shade.) The only cloud on anyone's horizon is that OU President David Boren will probably retire in a few years. Who knows how his successor will approach the athletics program.....Their new pitching coach is my wife's uncle - Skip Johnson. He is a good recruiter and will be able to coach them up so you should see a marked improvement.
From a personal standpoint, it pained me greatly to see him go from Texas to Oklahoma. Would have much preferred to see him go to Texas Tech, where I figured he would go because he's good friends with Tim Tadlock. I just still can't get over seeing him wear those colors (puke).
Go Gators!Back at the TCU vs Florida game tonight. Great atmosphere for these games.
Yeah, I can't believe they sent him out again.If I am the Detroit Tigers, I am cringing at O'Sullivan's decision to send Faedo out in the eighth inning. I know it was a cramp but if the guy alters his delivery just a bit and hurts himself after throwing 112 pitches they are screwed.
This is such a non-issue.Yeah, I can't believe they sent him out again.
No it was the right call. He slid wide of the bag and was called interference by the letter of the rule.And then there is a brutal call on LSU for Jake Slaughter's slide wide of the bag to take out the fielder which takes the tying run off the board. Ugh.
Oh it was the right call - I agree. It was just brutal for LSU given the situation. It hurts, right call or not.No it was the right call. He slid wide of the bag and was called interference by the letter of the rule.
