re: State of Gamecock recruiting for 2021

I get worried every year about our class, but we always seem to pull a top 20 or top 25 class. I think a top 30 class might be hard to do at this point honestly. We don't seem to be trending with really anyone.

Yep, I agree.

Love Frank Martin, but that should be it. It's clear he can't get it done in crunch time. Tanner needs to go first though.

On top of that, we have a coaching staff that, at a fundamental level, does not understand how to manage that bullpen. There is zero feel for the flow of the game. I mean, how many games have been blown over the last couple years in the closing innings? How many Sunday games have we dropped because our guys are just gassed? I don't get it.
At no point in our history, that I can remember, have all three of our programs been this bad. I am so tired of this. I am glad I live in Texas, and that I am not tempted to buy tickets right now. On top of that, we have to listen to Clemson fans for another year, who don't care about baseball, act like they have the better program.

I really don't understand how our baseball program is this average. We have all of the advantages in the world when it comes to a college baseball program. MK just doesn't get it.

That is really good news if it happens this way. The fact that we haven't had any major recruiting losses since the end of the season is amazing.

It's a miracle we held onto to those honestly.

It's time for us to move on; it's obvious at this point.

I personally think Leach is overrated, and I don't think his style of offense is going to work in the SEC West. He will be funny though, and that might be good for the league. I mean his team just lost to Air Force.

So who is it looking like we end up with to close out the class? We have three spots left, correct? This is a solid class by the coaching staff, especially coming off a four win season.

I love Frank Martin as a person, and I appreciate what he has done here. That said, if we don't make the tournament (not likely) this year, we need to move on. We have given him way more than enough time to right the ship.

We ended both the streaks in baseball and basketball this year; that's a start. It really was an ugly game, but glad we won. Martin needed that one for sure.

Moving to the SEC has helped USC alot from a financial standpoint. We have one of the healthiest athletic departments in the country. Like someone else said, I believe it was top 15 last year, and is poised to continue to rise. Tanner has been terrible with his coaching hires, but he knows how to generate capital.

Is it just me, or does there seem to be alot of academic issues with some of our recent recruits? I just don't get it.

Your last sentence has been me since I got here haha. People keep asking me if I have embraced the culture yet, and I am like "yeah, it's cool, but USC is still home". They don't get it, but alot of them are from smaller schools or went to A&M for undergrad. I am known as the "Gamecock", and people have called me out several times walking the hall haha. I should run for student government at this point. After the UGA game, everyone had something to say. Needless to say, the A&M game week wasn't fun for me haha.
I completely agree with your other point about costs. I was also accepted into Pittsburgh, and even though their program was ranked slightly higher, that school would have cost me over $100,000. A&M is going to cost me like a quarter of that with the instate tuition waiver. It's a pretty cool place honestly, and you get to meet a ton of serious people. I do not regret my choice.

Yeah, I was walking through the hall the other day, and realized my class will be with the Dean. That's pretty cool on your part though.
I haven't taken Castillo, but several of my classmates have. I have heard good things.
I had Dr. Lanz from USC write me a letter of recommendation when I applied, and he said there have been a few students to go from USC to the Bush School. I think there are two of us right now.

HAHA, dang. I could be joining you in DC over the next year or so. I haven't quite decided yet.
I am sure we ran into each other at some point at USC though. Small world!

Losing by 20, at home, is not....um...good. I can't believe I was actually excited for basketball a few weeks ago.
