I hear y’all are playing him some at CB and even DM this year. Pretty neat. I hope he can round out his skill set a bit before he moves on.

He started a couple of games for us last year at the 6 and LB.

Yesterday was his first preseason match with us since coming back from the U-17's and he started at CB.

I sound so PR (fake), but he's also a really good kid. Really quiet and respectful, but has a confidence to him that isn't cocky if that makes sense.

Last year was all about him understanding the demands and pace of the pro game at 15/16 years old. Looking forward to him growing into a much larger role on the field as this season gets going.

Matthew Corcoran starts for Nashville (played at the last U17 WC),

I haven't posted on the soccer board or TD in ages (still lurk on here, tRant and MSB), but I just wanted to break my vow of silence to say that I want only great things to happen for Matty.

I've been running PR/Marketing for Birmingham Legion since last year, so had the pleasure of getting to know him while he was recovering from the first real injury of his young career. So mature beyond his years.

I'm kind of indifferent towards the metrics way of looking at things.

I actually lean this way as well. But they are a good supplement to seeing how the player plays.

I just think it's a little to early for people to start pulling those stats out in an argument considering one at bat can drastically change some of them at this point.

I agree, but I'm trying to build some consistency so I don't just randomly throw stats out of nowhere once SEC play starts.

Do you calculate them all yourself?

Nah, I suck at math. I have the iScore Baseball App.

I think the LSU account on gamechanger.io does a good bit of those automatically.

I've checked, they don't have any advanced metrics like quality at-bats, runs per appearance, first-pitch strike %, etc.

You put a little too much stock into metric stats, especially since it's a small sample of 6 games.

Eh maybe, but I'm just trying to post stats & figures that aren't really accessible directly via LSU.

Different perspectives.

Hey, is it cool if I post a link to the LSU pickup soccer group? It has near 600 members and it would be cool to get it some publicity. I know people are always looking for a good game of pickup.

Go for it.

Not sure how much it will help though. I don't think a lot of people read the website.

...or the magazine.

frick...something about the third quarter that the internet doesn't like. Go ahead and finish. Both these games were close but you were up by 3 both times. :banghead:

ETA: You were actually up 10 the second time. You would likely have won.

You sure? It wouldn't be fair to you. Get that pick 6 to take the lead and it just quits after that.

I didn't, fricking internet did. Just go ahead and finish it. Don't want to hold everybody up.

Haven't seen Tomic play much... Seems like a douche.

I remember after Roddick beat him 3-0 in the US open last year with the last set being 6-love, some reporter asked Tomic if he gave up and Tomic gave a dickish response.
