I don’t know how Kopps arm hasn’t fallen off yet

Without him, we are probably looking at at least a couple of more runs on our end if not an outright lead.

Dude is a cheat code


Yes and as soon as they put him in their offense picks up as well.

yeah as a coach what do you tell your guys at the plate when someone like that is up there? Just pick you out a spot swing hard and hope you run into it?

Pretty much what other teams told their batters when we had Josh Fields as our closer back in 08. Say a prayer and just hope for a miracle

An untouchable closer isn’t terribly common in college. When you find you have one, you’d better use him

I really hope Kopps doesn't run out of gas in the postseason. His work load this year has been insane.

Yeah I’m gonna start calling him Kevin “Abel” Kopps. I don’t even know why we bother with the other pitchers.

He is the safety blanket for the team. Everyone just plays better when he is on the mound.

I obviously think highly of the guy and see what all the fuss is about. Hope DVH manages him properly; selfishly, I think this would’ve been a series worth letting get away to preserve him for bigger and better things but then Hoover is still 3 weeks out and I’d be surprised if Kopps makes more than a cursory appearance during the tournament just to get some routine work in

He’s got the durability to start but why use him once when he’s so much better than anyone else in the pen. Just wait until we get a lead anytime from the 5th inning on then bring him in get the dub and move on. I feel like that’s van horns approach to pitching this season.

We didn’t get swept. I guess that something. Need 3 wins out of the series against Ole Miss and Florida. Unfortunately, we seem to play uninspired baseball every other week so who knows what we will get

UF and UGa both play better against better competition. That should be a great series.

DvH never gives a shot about Hoover so that doesn’t worry me.

We could lose the last two series and bounce from the tourney and likely still get a National seed.

All that really matters at this point.

Kopps will have plenty of time to reset IMO.
