The Official #6 Tennessee @ Alabama Weekend Series Thread (Game 1 Friday @ 7PM) (Game 2 Saturday @ 7PM) (Game 3 Sunday @ Noon)

With that great talent of his .... he should have signed with the TN Vols & played for his own state school.
Buck Fama. Go make your home state school a winner ...... jmo.
I would not assume he was offered. I know a lot of great Tennessee baseball players pre-Vitello time that were not offered by UT. It was not always a priority before this coaching staff to keep as much talent in state as possible. You have to remember that if he was 2018 high school graduate he would have probably committed in 2015 or 16. Plus he played for East Coast Sox and those guys were not fans of the previous coaching staff at UT.

* Good post for a history lesson. But also a PWO would be a good thing too. Earn a scholly.
 
Honestly, I havent been impressed by this umpire crew the entire weekend. Primarily, the inconsistency behind the plate. Plus, the check swing call last night by the 1B ump was awful.
That was the worst checked-swing call I’ve ever seen at any level of baseball.
