Texas’s best performances by far since big 12 play started have been against the best opponents. Being the 15 or 16 overall sounds more appealing tbh
May 24, 20187 yr Texas is likely going to be paired with a really good team in the supers no matter what happens. That's if they advance to a supers. Worrying about that is a waste of time

May 24, 20187 yr Now I know you're an aggy troll. Gemba (a known aggy troll) liked your above post. Matter of fact, I bet you are gemba. Are you really this pathetic? Already back trolling Longhorn boards I see. http://www.shaggytexas.com/board/showthread.php/147077-Sumlin-2016-No-defense-just-recruiting-and-double-vodka-tonics./page12 Edited May 24, 20187 yr by texasstrong12

May 24, 20187 yr Well I am just shocked that an obvious aggy troll is in fact aggy and also a Trump supporter to top it off. Absolutely shocked, I tell you.

This dude has been trolling Longhorn boards for years. First OB, then Shaggy, now Surly. Surly is officially off and running now. Sad thing is this dude probably has at least 4 or 5 other accounts on here trolling in random Longhorn related threads acting like he's a Longhorn. Edited May 24, 20187 yr by texasstrong12

I can't imagine we could beat any team in the country right now Serious question from a Texas fan who has great respect for Josh. What has happened ? Overworked pitching staff due to the injuries ? From the few innings I have watched, it seems the hitters are trying to hit everything out of the park instead of getting on base. Keep in mind OKSt was picked 6th in the preseason predictions if it is any consolation.

Lack of pitching depth and swinging for the fences every at bat finally caught up with them. Mediocre team at best.
May 24, 20187 yr I think you nailed it. Lack of pitching depth and swinging for the fences every at bat finally caught up with them. Mediocre team at best. Mix in below average fielding and done strange coaching decisions as well. I imagine the weird coaching decisions are due to Josh grasping at straws trying to magically change the direction we were heading.

May 26, 20187 yr Didn't see this posted. Maybe a Connie Clark situation with Brad Hill. B12 needs to get stronger. Quote MANHATTAN, Kan. (AP) — Kansas State baseball coach Brad Hill will step down after this season as the school's winningest coach, ending a tenure that includes four NCAA regional appearances and a Super Regional berth. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/baseball/2018/05/08/k-state-baseball-coach-brad-hill-to-step-down-after-season/34703009/ Kendall RogersVerified account @KendallRogers 8h8 hours ago More COACHING SCOOP: Some names I’m hearing on @KStateBSB include: #Iowa’s Rick Heller, #OleMiss assistant Mike Clement, #SHSU’s Matt Deggs and a surprise candidate, #CofC’s Chad Holbrook.

May 26, 20187 yr WV beat Tech 12-4. Tadlock has gone 1-2, 1-2, 1-2, 1-2, 0-2, 1-2 in his 6 Big 12 tournaments. Kind of interesting. Again, gets back to the point that some coaches don't really care about conference tournaments if their seeding is locked up for a regional/super regional. I wouldn't say "Tech has been throwing Big 12 tournament games", but they haven't exactly been all in (especially these last few years). Edited May 26, 20187 yr by texasstrong12
May 26, 20187 yr Maybe Tech did have something to play for. I figured they had a national seed locked up.

USF (10-13), Jacksonville (4-9), East Carolina (9-11), Duke (6-7), A&M (14-15). Auburn is only 19-19 and Tennessee Tech has played a grand total of 6 games against RPI top 50 teams. I doubt our record against RPI top 50 teams will be what keeps us from hosting. Now maybe the raw RPI numbers do, but not that. Edited May 26, 20187 yr by texasstrong12

If he had something to play for Tadlock is the world's biggest dumb ass. The pitcher he started in game one was a rare starter with an era over 8. The 2nd game starter was primarily a reliever this season. Didn't start any of his 3 main starters until game 3, not even starting his best one. Not sure what his thought process was.

May 26, 20187 yr I've got to agree. I have to feel like there's a chance Tadlock might end up with egg on his face regarding the national seed. Don't think it ultimately will matter though. I don't really look for Tech to make it out of their regional to be honest.

Don't think it ultimately will matter though. I don't really look for Tech to make it out of their regional to be honest. This has been going on for years but I'm not really sure what the solution is. Get rid of the auto-bid and conference tournament? It's not just a Big 12 thing either. If anyone is watching Florida in the SEC tournament they could give 2 shits about playing in that tournament. The #1 overall RPI team has been outscored 18-2 today. I think the idea of an auto-bid makes things fun but I tend to agree with Tramel that more often than not it's just bad baseball. Unless I was a fan that lived right down the road I sure wouldn't have an incentive to attend based on how coaches handle these type tournaments. Edited May 26, 20187 yr by texasstrong12
May 26, 20187 yr For those keeping track, texasstrong12 is starting to realize how wrong he was about going 0-2 in the tournament.
May 26, 20187 yr Conference tournaments in almost any sport where a regular season champion is already determined are fucking dumb ie - all sports
May 26, 20187 yr literally everything that did not need happen this weekend is happening to cause us to not host.
May 26, 20187 yr Yes they are. Sometimes it seems like they are given more credit for getting hot over a weekend than for teams that actually earned a conference title. It's all about the money. They absolutely are and I don't get it. A few years back when we won the conference outright, everyone referred to TCU as the Big 12 champs. No, they were the conference tournament champs. There's a difference.
