So, Murray's brother married Christina Stauffer in 2000. Prior to that, she had been a second unit director on a bunch of movies (Cider House Rules, Magnolia, Wyatt Earp, etc.). Apparently, they met on the set of Groundhog Day, dated for several years and then got married. After they were married, she went back to K-State and got her Vet Med degree in 2008 and then worked at an animal hospital in LA after that.

If she's close to the age of Murray's brother, she would have went back to get that degree in her 50s - kind of crazy to go from making movies in Hollywood to being a vet doctor at that stage of one's life, but good for her.

We are No. 36 in RPI entering this weekend against No. 40 WVU. Road games against top 40 RPI teams count as Quad 1 games. Then, next week, all three games against BYU are Quad 4 (currently 128 in RPI). Ideally, we grab at least 1 Q1 this weekend and then sweep BYU next week - 1-2 losses against them would hurt us pretty significantly. If we can go 4-2 these last two weeks and then win 1-2 in the Big 12 tourney, I think we're safely in.

Lose any to BYU and get swept by WVU, then it's bubble time and dependent on a semi-deep run in the Big 12 tourney.

Yep. Was reading the scenarios outlined by KitH and before I could even finish I was like “dun’n matter Pete’s got this”

Another year on the bubble.  A sweep of BYU probably gets us in.  However BYU is so bad that if we lose the series we are likely out.

yo muffin- what kind of bubble are you talking about?


Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

New warning: Don't get in a fight with someone who doesn't even need to bother to buy ink.

And if our other all-american/upcoming first round draft pick makes a routine play in the 8th, it doesn't get to extras.

Enjoy the roller coaster of Pete Hughes baseball - it's all we have at this point.

It's amazing how broken the system is.  We are about as average as you can get.  But because we played a ton of road games at really hard places we will likely make the tournament.  We didn't even win any of those games lmao.

The beauty of Pete Hughes baseball.  Getting stomped by everyone works!

We have two wins (both at home) over No. 17 Oklahoma State - those are our only top 30 RPI wins (vs. 7 losses). And we were outscored 41-75 in those games.

It's a bit of apples/oranges, but not many teams would get an at-large bid to the b-ball NCAA tourney with a 2-7 record against top 30 in RPI.

Here is where Pete Hughes proves the haters and losers (of whom there are many) wrong though

Two runs on six hits against a team with a 7+ ERA and an opp. BA of .314 in Big 12 play...

Oh, what the hell - a win's a win.
