2016 College Baseball Season Thread

Meh. I'm over it. He would have not been here this season anyways. I don't need Boomer in College Station for me to root against A&M.

Aggie might be #2 overall, but they couldn't even win their division and are already in the loser's bracket in the SEC tourney.

The SEC post season tourney is completely contrived. Setting up their teams for regionals

The number of times the clear top team loses in that tourney almost makes it seem like some collusion and game rigging happens over there.  I'm not enough of a conspiracy theorist to let myself believe that, but there are way more losses in that tournament than should happen if the top teams are as good as they look throughout the year.

Posted over in the 2016 Big 12 Tourny thread, but BA and D1 project TCU to be paired with Louisville (National Seed), and both project Rice as the 2-seed at the Fort Worth Regional.

Baseball America's Teddy Cahill has a post up this morning featuring TCU.  Great quotes from Schloss about this team's run through the Big 12 Tourney and potential going forward.  No paywall.  Worth a read:

Nice article. Thanks for posting.

Congrats to to TCU! I guess Texas is slightly jealous of your success. Also great to hear A&M won the SEC.

Since I can't award a half-like, I'll just say half-thanks

I think it's actually more likely that he would have still been here than not.

How so??? You saying he would have had a medical redshirt season in '15 with us had he stayed??

 

[Punter1]

Also...could somebody explain what happened to Mitch Sewald?? Is he hurt or just buried on the depth chart???

Why does this matter?

Why does this matter?

Because coaching carousel. We have two assistants that will likely be head coaches at some point in the near future. Personally doubt this is the year they jump with the 2017 potential though.

Hell of a season. Disappointing end (always is for all but one), but a hell of a season.
