Seeing Texas Tech this bad (got smacked by Grand Canyon last night) is both shocking and hilarious. They’ve been on the steady decline for about 4 years now. Good thing they gave Tadlock a lifetime contract. Edited March 8Mar 8 by Hookem2147

Making him live in lubbock... what the fuck could they do to him? It's at best a stepping stone program that is lucky to have someone who wants to coach there. Next stop for them is the Mountain West Conference.

Good thing they gave Tadlock a lifetime contract. Texas leaving the big12 really has and is going to continue to hurt them in recruiting. They used to be pretty heavy in the Austin/Centex area but tougher to do that when you don’t get to play here anymore.

Legit David Pierce is the kind of coach they should be hiring. Pierce can raise you floor but he lowers your ceiling. Tadlock has no ability and is a coach entirely dependent on roster.

They used to have a couple of legitimate arms back when they were going to Omaha semi-regularly but no HS or portal arm wants to play there anymore with how hitter friendly it is and their pitching coach is apparently a joke. Tadlock won’t get rid of him because he’s too loyal. Edited March 8Mar 8 by Hookem2147

March 8Mar 8 They really want to get Winfield going. It isn’t applicable today against a righty starter but I’m starting to wonder about Rodriguez against lefties. He is like 2 for 16 against them this season. Maybe he should still be in the lineup regardless but I’m probably not batting him cleanup.
March 8Mar 8 It's back to UT radio with Craig Way today. The basketball game tonight gives him a DH today.

I’d there any collegiate site that tracks splits for individual players?

All-American pitcher Greg Swindell’s voice was silenced somewhat when the Longhorn Network television channel was shuttered, but he told me at the Alumni Game that he will at least do 15 Big 12 baseball games and a regional for ESPN and said he is “pretty sure” he will do more than 25 Astros pregame and postgame shows. https://www.houstonchronicle.com/sports/college/longhorns/article/mack-brown-college-football-commissioner-20145994.php

March 8Mar 8 Winfield is up there trying to hit the ball rather than do his job and it shows in every AB. Now up to 12 Ks and 0 Walks in 25 at bats. Up there hoping to get a hit with little to no approach
