Look Napier is a crappy coach but look at his first class at UF. The per recruit average (the only metric that counts) was 88.88 in 2022. Ours was 88.10.

in 2023 our average was 90.87 with 25 commits. Napiers was 91.41 with 22 commits.

In 2024, our average was 91.16 with 21 commits. UFs was 91.35 with 20 commits. Hopefully we get a better class than them this year. You may not like it but both Napier and Freeze can recruit.

I do think when we win 10 or 11 games this year recruiting is gonna improve.

While I think Tennessee should be ranked higher in team recruiting rankings, I think it's important to remember the fall out from Pruitt's recruiting violations. Please try to comprehend the specifics of these sanctions because I think a lot of us have forgotten what an uphill battle it's been on the recruiting trail.

Now would be a good time to break out of that slump.

Wrong side of the field and short

But, technically, they could?

 

[vol4eva]

Got 1

 

[DD4ME]

Let's get Prager to at least 35 pitches this inning.

37 and a run

 

[mr.checkerboards]

40 pitches through 2 is good.
Get to their pen

 

[Rishvol]

But, technically, they could?

Yes but it would've been an out

 

[DD4ME]

Touching Prager a lot with the top of the order coming. I'll take it.

 

[Glitch]

Second time through the lineup coming up and our guys are starting to get bats on the ball.

 

[JCVol00]

Out of curiosity, what did Stark think he’d accomplish by bunting it on the 2-0 count when there were two outs? It was the pitch before the fly out he went for it

 

[Weezer]

Got one back, that's a good start. 7 more innings to go!
