He's been in a slump. Last year, always seemed to be a big part of these big moments in big games. A catalyst, if you will. Ditto, the early part of this year.



From memory, last year he was hot pre-SEC... then slumped pretty hard for the first half of SEC Play, and turned it back on, right about now during the season...
Just off memory, that's what it seems like.

Not me! I watched the whole thing!

Now, the question is…. Did the bear just break his slump?

I think it's pretty douchey to wear a Jersey at all.

All really good information...
But looks less impressive than I thought!

Y’all better clean things up over there!


I know this a joke/troll...

but... WHO F-ING CARES!?

I'm more inclined to make fun of Ole Miss for giving up the the Rebel mascot for a black bear, than I am to make fun of them for being racist...
Him hitting in the 9 hole is not because he is bad... it's sort of an additional leadoff hitter. He has done a great job getting on base. when the lineup turns over during an inning it allows greater chance of the 1 and 2 hole guys hitting with men on base.

He didn't have the world's is actually unbelievable. You don't text your team something after a game like that you give a legitimate emotional speech. I've been a Jay supporter and still am but texting is not the way to get to your team after a performance like that.


ever have someone that you look up to, just look at you with disappointment, and turn away without a word?
its worse than getting cursed...

re: Zac Cowan vs. Chase Shores as starter

Sure. You use Evans. If the game is close, you use Evans on Friday and hope the bullpen holds up on Fr/Sa.


I think Cowan may be the most dependable arm on the team… you know what kind of outing you will get from him everytime.


If you pair Anderson/cowan on Friday and Eyanson/Evans on Saturday. You will win the vast majority of your Friday and Saturday games .

I think if you start Cowan on Sunday, there will come several Friday/Saturday games that your starter exits the game with a lead and you end up losing. The bullpen outside of Cowan and Evan’s is just giving up too many free passes.

Corso retiring


It was pretty obvious last year that he was no longer mentally sharp, to put it lightly.

I’m more surprised that they are letting him back for week 1, than that he announced retirement.
I believe Cowan is the better pitcher- right now.
I don't think it's close.

The fear is, if you start cowan, can you count on your bullpen to win the Friday night game.

I also, think Evans is a better pitcher than Shores right now, but its the same question. If you remove them from your bullpen, I am not sure you get more wins..
What school has ever retired ANY players number before the player was even drafted?

how stupid.

ok that's just absurd... Same arm slot and all. Hitters don't have a chance.

what kind of sorcery is this ?

re: Skenes is one of a kind

WOW... that ball looked to be headed down the middle of the right handed batter's box, and broke right back into the heart of the plate...

if he throws that at a right hander, he will be flinching expecting to be hit, and then get rung up...

Really? Who? What's the data on that? You're saying NBA scouts are missing on players in college who maximize their earnings by transferring? I don't believe that for a second


No, Dummy... if you transfer every semester you never graduate...

My favorite teams in order.

Hired really bad assistants

Chasing arse


Agreed. And these are connected.

Prior to 2019, o was going out and trying to get quality assistants, and shooting to make big moves.
Matt Canada failed, but he was widely thought to be a great hire at the time.
When that failed, O was quick to cut him loose and try something new. Then bring in Brady…
My point is he was focused on finding the right combination.

After 2019, recruiting went down, hiring was shitty… O got divorced, started chasing arse. He let off the gas entirely.
