No score, top 4.

Still early but I think the fielding looks better - perhaps bad fielding was caused by the lights.

But I’m starting to think the hitting is a legitimate concern. We just aren’t putting pressure on any pitcher and we’ve rarely squared any balls up - today or really the whole weekend.
We know the top 5 guys are legit hitters…. They are all slow out of the gate right now.
 
Try me then, any bird I can identify.

He didn’t hire Harper…. He hired Josh Heupel and Duane Ross( track and field coach) here….. yes… mainly talking about his hires before Tennessee…. Out of 11-12 hires…. He has only made one bad hire(Buffalo softball coach)…. 2 average hires…. The rest are way above average with 3 being some of the most highly thought of coaches in the country( Oats, Leipold, and Heupel)

Wow, I had no idea he hired Nate Oats. I didn't know about Leipold either but hiring Nate Oats to his first HC job is astounding. I'm a fan of Oats minus that ugly color he wears but I'm more interested to see where he ends up long-term. I think it will be at a blue blood soon or someone like Texas that will throw a blank check at him.
 
Yeah I'm not sure what the play is to vindicate AP. Wrong for the showboat, got defended(because the game is still active) and started a fight. Truthfully, UNF should have gotten two or more FTs due to techs.
Yeah based on the final score, it looks like APSU got a technical shot. It was 72-71 at the time. Final score was 73-71 iirc
 
In fairness, most schools weren’t, Georgetown was his best offer coming out of HS. I am surprised though that ETSU didn’t give him a look
Oh I know. But that was a huge mystery his entire recruitment. The dude was a walking highlight reel and blew through Iverson's records. Went to multiple events in Knoxville to watch his sister or go to ball games. I don't know if he was a Vol fan per se, but he would've picked us over Georgetown for sure.

The criticism was that he went to a tiny school and played against terrible competition. But he has great athleticism and he can shoot from almost anywhere.
