You can keep laughing, but my (rather simple) question remains unanswered: Do we hold UT to a different standard than the rest of college baseball when it comes to “showboating?”

I apologize for interacting with trolls.

I don’t think so. When it’s your team, a percentage like it, another percentage doesn’t. When it’s someone else’s team a larger percentage of our fans don’t like it. Fan base 101.

Yes. Yes we do. Our guys are better than their guys. It's that simple. Now, go away.

This is a great thread about our Vols going to MLB and our upcoming 2024 team. Our future is bright!

Has Will Wade taken a new job in the Chicago White Sox front office?

Zander received a call from the Nationals for early Round 11. Offered $150,000. Z declined the offer. Wants to come back for his senior year, put more work in with Frank, etc. and contribute to getting this team to Omaha ️

Good news! Awesome!

Morgan definitely matured over his years at LSU. What do you think about Beck and Gilbert and Beck acting the way they did last year as seniors? Are you holding our guys to the same standards?

Yes I hold ours to the same standard if that answers your question. Even my own. But I did see Jordan’s one different than Drew’s numerous

Happy to have Zander back for his senior year!

Me too! I cried cleaning out the car trunk and putting all my baseball stuff away. I selfishly wanted another year. It went by so quick.

Zane at SS?

I'm not sure he's quick enough to cover short.

Tony will figure it out. That I have high confidence in.

Doesn’t have the range or the arm for SS

That’s where I’m at…in little league everyone learns the value of the middle of the field players. Catcher, Pitcher, SS, CF. Sitting around in July worrying about February is silly. But…it is a message board.
