Someone bought it on the 17th of April ... the only way to get it now is to offer up a sizable bid or put yourself in line hoping whoever bought it does not re-up a year from now.

They paid extra to hide the actual registrar's name, so whoever it is obviously is planning on doing something with it .... it's probably not gonna be pretty.


thanks for the info. You seem to know about these things. IYO, what would a decent bid be for the site? $500? More? less? I have no clue. I'm just curious.

Whats so foolish about that? Where does this warchest of credibility as AD come from?

I think the extension for holbrook was pretty foolish if you ask me.

I think hanging on to holbrook is just flat out irresponsible at this point.

It's worth whatever someone is willing to pay.

Right now the owner could double his money by selling it for $100.00 given the extra $30-something he put it in for incognito status.

Any time you can double your money quiickly it's a good investment.

This seems to be an emotional buy though ... someone is going to encourage Holbrook being fired next season should he fail to produce once again.

It's foolish to even think that the idea of Tanner being any where close to the chopping block.

Looking at the roster this season, USC's baseball program had 5 seniors, 8 juniors, 11 sophomores, and 11 freshmen. That looks like a young roster to me. We relied on true freshmen Destino, Murray, and Schmidt for most of the season. Scolamiero, Taylor, Stokes, and Matt Williams look to be solid players in the years to come, if not leaders for the team.

We have a ton of sophomores who made up the meat of our team this season: Cone, Gore, Koch, Reagan, Scott, Widener. Crowe was a weekend starter until he was lost with Tommy John. Fr. Taylor kinda overtook Koch IMO in the late part of the season when he got hot at the plate. I thought both Cone and Gore would have great seasons after they had such hot summer league performances, but they pretty much stayed where they left off 2014.

The incoming 2015 class (for the 2015-16 season) is currently 14 strong and is highly rated once again by the online services. It was 15 strong but C Tyler Romanik out of Blythewood has switched his commitment from us to CofC, reportedly due to USC having no scholarship money for him and he'd have to walk on, but he'll get a partial ride with the Cougars. SP Nick Neidert is expected to go to the MLB on draft day: others who were mentioned as possibles were SPs Cody Morris & Logan Allen, and SS LT Tolbert. Morris however has reportedly torn his UCL and will need Tommy John surgery, so his situation is up in the air a bit. Tolbert reportedly hurt his draft stock by transferring his senior year to IMG Academy from Piedmont (Wren High), which is good for USC keeping him.

Bottom line: the team's roster was 63% freshmen & sophomore this season, and is bringing in as many as 14 for the 2015 class and losing 5 seniors. One could look at those numbers and declare that the program is in a re-loading phase right now. I can only hope that that bodes well for the immediate future of the program to bounce back...

Smart, but wow he would be incredible at USC. His fastball is mid-90s.

Can't really blame the kids for wanting to make money.. but man it would be nice if we could get some of these elite kids on campus every once in a while. Just think about the talent that would've played for SC... we would've won the last 5 national championships had Bryce Harper come to USC..
