    Wait a minute. Wasn't it JK who stated on twitter that Barnett was coming to USF. Jk wonders why he gets flack. Well, this kind of stuff is part of the reason why.

    Does JK wonder?

    Cam Newton wins a national title and gets completely overlooked by JK, unless QB's who took a trip to JUCO are excluded. 

  2. I just checked it out.Over all it looks great.  It shows all the replies that are coming from the Forums but when you click the links to go to the threads all it does is disconnect you from the chat. Is that what is supposed to happen or are you supposed to be redirected? 

    Edit. Never mind, must have just been slow internet. 

  3. No matter where we go, we are going to have to step up and play better than we've shown to win. To me a super regional is probably our max goal. We just aren't an Omaha team. I'm just hoping to easiest route there, knowing none are easy. 

    Its an interesting regional. Stetson has a 5-2 record against the top 25 in RPI (unfortunately we are two of them).  Funny thing is that us getting into to top 25 in RPI is probably what got them there. 

     

  4. Can you give us 4 teams you are most confident in at this moment to make it to Omaha? Don’t be scared!

    Florida
    Stanford
    Arkansas
    Oregon State

    I feel like OSU and Arkansas both have some really nice components at the plate, but obviously have issues at times on the mound, it seems. But I still think both of them will have big success in the postseason.

     

    How many teams can realistically win the title this year?

    Aaron Fitt: 

    Interesting question. There are definitely fewer teams that I REALLY like this year than I can ever remember… I feel like the national title will likely be one by one of the top teams in the SEC (Florida, Arkansas… maybe Ole Miss/Kentucky/Auburn as a darkhorse) or the Pac-12 (Stanford, Oregon State, maybe UCLA as a darkhorse).

     

    A lot of postseason baseball is getting hot at the right time and building that momentum for the conference tourneys, regionals, supers and so on. Give me your hottest 5 teams in the country.

    Aaron Fitt: 

    The problem is it’s maybe still too early to predict who’s going to be hot in June — there are still three more weeks for a team that’s hot now to cool down. It’s hard to stay hot for 6 or 7 straight weeks. That said… Stanford and Florida have pretty much been hot for 12 straight weeks, so it can be done. South Carolina and Minnesota are two more teams that are hot right now and have caught my attention, and I really like how Southern Miss has played since Sandlin got back.

    I just keep reading things like this and although Tuesday night was a mid week, it did give a glimpse of what that UF line up can do to our bull pen. All this just says avoid at all cost to me.

    the buzzsaw that is UF.

    For real though. I don't know how many lineups are that good top to bottom. 

  5. Friday, May 11

    Cincinnati at ECU * - 6:30 p.m.
    USF at Wichita State (ESPN3) * - 7 p.m.
    Houston at UConn % * - 7:05 p.m.
    Memphis at Tulane * - 7:30 p.m.

    Oklahoma at UCF - 6:30 p.m.
     
    Sunday, May 13
    USF at Wichita State (ESPN3) * - 11:30 a.m.
    Oklahoma at UCF - 1 p.m.
    Cincinnati at ECU * - 1 p.m.
    Houston at UConn * - 1 p.m.
    Memphis at Tulane * - 2 p.m.


     It looks like all three games will be on ESPN 3. It also looks like a big week for the AAC, it would worth keeping an eye on the UH/Uconn and ECU/ Cin games. All four teams are right there in thick of the race for the regular season title. Although UH still sits in the driver seat. 

  6. BULLS DOMINATE CONFERENCE AWARDS

    The American regular season champion Bulls dominated the conference honors, including five first team all-conference selections, the league announced Wednesday.
     
    USF was selected as coaching staff of the year, and freshman Georgina Corrick was named co-pitcher and rookie of the year, and to the all-rookie team. Corrick, Lauren Evans, Astin Donovan, Amber Atkinson, and Lindsey Devitt were named first team all-conference.
     
    The American coaching staff of the year, head coach Ken Eriksen and assistant coaches Jessica Moore and Laura Ricciardone, guided USF to the top of the American standings through every week of conference play. They led USF to its seventh conference championship, and second in the last three years. Under their guidance, USF has reached a 36-20 record, 14-7 in The American, and enters postseason as the No. 1 seed and host in conference tournament.

    Now heading to Tally, Still not worse case scenario, Some can argue that FSU is a better match up for us and some will just want to get out of the state of Florida. At the end of the day, its not G-villie and that's a plus. 

  8. Smoltz and Glavin too. They just took pride in being an all around ball player instead of just a pitcher. When you read Smoltz's book he talks about how they  wanted to compete in all aspects of the game including hitting and especially their defensive abilities from the mound. Obviously their is only one GG to go around and that usually went to the MadDawg (18 times!!) but the other two were good too. Lots of lesson for pitchers in observing how that rotation went about their business.
