Take that you #8 Kentucky bastards.
Do they give out championships for this intramural sport? If so you can probably just stick the hardware in our trophy case now.

Intramural baseball? Let's not get Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) here, wetwillie
In regards to Bat Cat Big XII play, should we call off the dogs? I mean we have already won the championship in two sports, three seems a little greedy. I don't know maybe it's just me. :dunno:
Once again, I'm just spit balling here. Feedback is appreciated. TIA
there is no way we win the B12 in baseball...is there?
well, i guess only OSU is ranked and UT is RV so maybe we can win it?

but what if we win the P66B12T??? A QUAD?!?!?!?!?!
so does a title here count towards the current TITLETOWN?
Rough day to a good night. Rubber match tomorrow.
K-State sports does a pretty decent job of updating their stats.
First game I saw was just brutal. No hitting, not really close to getting good contact. Pitching was bleeding runs in bunches and ended the game early. I missed the second game so I can't comment at all on it.

Bat Cats game was really fun last night. 4th largest crowd at Toit ($1 night), ran out of hot dogs, won on last at bat, and a great fireworks show after.

Nice to see King healthy.
The top 5 leaders in Big 12 batting average are all Wildcats - Jon Davis (.463), Ross Kivett (.431), Tanner Witt (.426), Austin Fisher (.422) and Blair DeBord (.409). Kansas State also leads the nation in batting average with a clip of .331 and fourth in the nation in hits (468).
2-1 BatCats. How was the beer? :drink:Cats protected the Diamond of Doom (thanks Trim). You can thank goEMAW for heckling the team, particularly the pitchers and the first base coach to secure the victory. #DOD

Cats lost today, but remain only one game back. Lotta baseball left.
Looks like Texas, KU and Oklahoma. Together with their games against other teams, a lot could happen.

I think we're all chasing Baylor at this point. They are 11-6 with series vs Kansas and TTech left. Their only series loss in league is TCU (1-2) and a split with OSU (1-1) due to a rainout. I think worst case for them is 4-2 to finish 15-8. We would have to go 7-2 over our last nine to finish 16-8. OU scenario is much the same at 10-5 with 9 games left.
Are 5-7 wins down the stretch plus a good showing in OKC is enough to qualify us for our third NCAA apearance?

KU beat WSU 1-0, in extra innings tonight. They're tanking pretty bad lately so hopefully we can sweep them. And Texas rough ridin' sucks... We seem to have pretty easy road to the postseason and a legit shot at another Title.

I believe that the Big 12 only recognizes the big 12 tourney champion as the big 12 champion.
So we are playing for a 1 seed right now.
Could be wrong though.

WVa took care of the Sooners. Cats are still one game back.
On LHN again. Already down 1-0 in the bottom of the 1st
We should be content with a 2-1, obviously ideal would be 3-0, but KU is 4th in the league, so it might be tough. I think OSU might steal one from OU given it's bedlam, but I wouldn't expect any more than that. However, I don't know how much we can expect from TCU over WVU, TCU is mediocre (8-10 in confy), but then again it's baseball so maybe they can steal one. WVU might be the hardest team to beat to the championship that we can't do anything about, as they end with OSU (9-8 in confy), and thus have the easiest path to a championship. If we take KU 2-1, the the series against OU will be exciting, but I think a tie is all we can hope for for the championship, but if we happen to sweep KU, then the series vs OU pretty much becomes just going 2-1 and get another crystal bowl for the trophy case.

:dubious: Of course he was wrong
Listening to the Dillon's KSU batcats game in Lawrence. Cats up 2-0 in the fifth. Anyone there? Seems like a good KSU crowd. Pretty loud on that inning-ending double play in the fourth. :Dwas there with lil rams for the first 3 innings. pretty solid ksu cats fan showing.
Streaming free on KstateHD.tv. Watching it here. DeBord got tossed; could anybody tell whether that ball he was arguing about was fair or foul?
Also, these announcers are turrible. And after the 6th (I think) the guy who had been doing all the play-by-play just kinda disappeared and Hank Hooper took over. wtf.
We are watching the same thing and the announcers are turrible, sorry.
Yes, it is comical how they keep talking about how there isn't an empty seat in the house, yet for every single pitch I can count at least 15 empty seats in the first three rows. :lol:
This dude keeps saying the crowd tonight of 2090 is the biggest crowd of the season by far. Also has talked about how there's not an empty seat in the house. I looked. Their stadium seats 2500...A high population of poor, fat people in Lawrence. They take of two seats.
Hank Hooper keeps calling the new catcher Blair DeBord. LOL.

I hope you are right but I know you are not
Don't tell our team they could be in sole possession. They might actually run back to the lockeroom and hide in the shower

meh. he's hit or miss. obviously though, the big12 is not great at baseball and feeling the need to point it out was kind of a miss. oh well.
First post here, I occasionally will come on here because I think it's a good forum. WVU fan, I come in peace. I noticed the comments about the baseball stadium, Hawley Field and its poor conditions. We just got a new stadium approved and it will do wonders for us. Please understand that baseball at WVU was very close to being dropped a few years ago, and we didn't start taking it seriously until Randy Maizey was brought in this year. Our former coach was an absolute nightmare and was kept around for the sake of him being there a long time. Below is a picture of what the new stadium will look like.The picnic tables are a nice touch

The last 5 pages have been fun to read. jfc dorks.:lol: :lol: (ftp://:lol: :lol:) So true yet i've been checking this religiously the last several days. :peek: (ftp://:peek:)
Looks like a quick start for the Cats. Bases loaded. 0 outs.
what are the best ways to watch and/or listen to these games?
Mitch Meyer just attempted to get an inside-the-park homerun because of an error made by the KU RF. Barely thrown out, but it scored two runs.

also, next to west virginia, hoglund in lawrence has to be the worst baseball facility in the big12 right? i mean my god those poors don't have anything built since 1964 on their entire campus, do they?
13-5 tcu over wvu now. what's the ou/osu link?
Tits 5-2 Cats
Oh great, the rock-and-fire guy is back. :rolleyes:
Three pitches, three straight "rocks and fires". JFC.
After a very long top of the 9th, 16-5 TCU going into the bot of the 9th.
Love Weird Robert with the broom.

Everything working for us now. Cats sweep KU, WVU loses to TCU and OU still on top of OSU going into the 8th! This is the best of all outcomes for us. 2 game lead in the loss column going into the final series against OU. We win 2 of 3 next weekend and the 3rd men's B12 championship this academic year is ours!

And if we win 1, we get at least a share, right?

only if OU beats OSU right now. If OSU wins today then sweeps WVU and we only take a game from OU they(OSU) would win the title outright due to higher percentage points.

So not everyone plays the same number of conference games?
It depends. WVU and OSU play next week. If WVU or OSU sweep then we would be out. We have the edge over WVU (2-1) Of course, we would also tie OU if we win only one. Bottom line: win 2 of 3 and it doesn't make any difference.

I believe I am correct in responding to the question about if we win only one next week, assuming that OU beats OSU today.
Scott - yes you are correct. Although not about the idiot part.

Meh...you'll have to prove me wrong another time.
So, if we win Friday do we win the B12?

I don't think anyone has ever won football, basketball, and baseball in the same year since the conference was formed.

home run: chug
get a guy out: 1/3 chug

RBI: 1/2 chug (on top of the 1/2 chug/chug for the hit or HR if applicable so always have at least 2 fresh beers ready)

Make sure to pick one guy and incessantly heckle him for looking exactly like Tom Petty.We really gave it to TCU's first base coach after the spring game. I'm pretty sure we're still in his head today.

I want the kind of mayhem that happens when a prison riot gets beyond the authorities control and they just lock up the prison from the outside and let the prisoners riot it out untilt they all fall asleep. Basically, they open the taps (beer coolers), close and lock the gates, throw a couple cartons of smokes over the fence, and come clean up Monday morning after our lunatic fans have all passed out.

I guess what I am trying to say is if I get my way, the crowd on Sunday (or Saturday) will be so cumulatively smashed and aggressively incoherent that if you were to take a wide angle view it would look like a non-coordinated version of "Harlem Shake" right after that guy says "con los terroristas" and everyone loses their crap...except it wouldn't be to music and it would likely be with a much faster tempo.A crowd of townies?

I believe that's the case. How hard do you celebrate a clinch of a share vs the clinch of an outright?

Tried to give away the Friday night game and they said "no thanks, bros. TSC."
Tried to let them have the Saturday game and they were all, "Guys, we're just gonna go ahead and blow this 6-1 lead and let you cruise in the second half of the game to a 9-6 win."
Tried on Sunday to pound their asses as hard as we could and totally succeeded because we were bored with them not taking advantage of the opportunities we were giving them.
Guys, I'm super excited about this series and really hope we win two, but I'm nervous we get swept and the whole thing imploads. I'm :pray: we win Friday so my fears go away.

Yeah, I normally don't care a lot about baseball, but if you haven't gotten caught up in another (ANOTHER) K-State team chasing a conference title then I don't know about you as a K-State fan (or a person really). Sheesh.
Win Tonight for Outright! Go Cats! FTB!
HI EVERYONE! :babywillie:
I am new to this, can anyone give me a quick summary of what we have to do to win a share, win outright, and what (if anything) you get if you win a conference regular season in baseball? Do you get a bid to the tournament? What is a super regional, it seems like that is something that happens, is that right?
Does any of this mean we get to go to Omaha? I would like to go to Omaha, because I would combine it with a visit to the Zoo, which I have heard is amazingly good for this part of the country.

Regional Hosts
SECURE TEAMS: The eight national seeds listed above; Indiana, North Carolina State, UCLA, Clemson
ON THE BUBBLE (IN): Arkansas, South Carolina, Louisville, Kansas State
ON THE BUBBLE (OUT): South Alabama, Mississippi State, Arizona State, Mississippi
One change from last week: Kansas State replaces Mississippi State as a host. That assumes Kansas State wins a crucial home series against Oklahoma this weekend, giving the Wildcats their first series win this season against a team that we are currently projecting to make a regional. The Sooners are good enough to win that series on the road, but right now Kansas State is the hotter team, and it is at home, so we’ll give K-State the benefit of the doubt. The Wildcats carry a two-game lead in the Big 12 into the last weekend, and their records against the top 25 (7-5) and top 100 (21-11) both trump South Alabama’s mark against the top 25 (4-7) and top 100 (15-11). The Big 12 is also the No. 4 RPI conference while the Sun Belt is No. 5, so winning the Big 12 regular-season title does carry some weight. And Kansas State presents more geographic diversity as a host than South Alabama, which is in the same footprint as Florida State and Louisiana State.

Oh man wouldnt this be fun, would hit MHK for a game or two. I want the Cats to go to Omaha so bad. When the CWS was at Rosenblat it was one of the best weekends in sports to attend. Tailgate your face off from sun up to sun down two days in a row. It's the marathon of all marathons. Granted, the Monday-Wednesday hangover sucks but its totally worth it.
Keep winning BoozeCats :drool:

SECURE TEAMS: The eight national seeds listed above; Indiana, North Carolina State, UCLA, Clemson
ON THE BUBBLE (IN): Arkansas, South Carolina, Louisville, Kansas State
ON THE BUBBLE (OUT): South Alabama, Mississippi State, Arizona State, Mississippi
One change from last week: Kansas State replaces Mississippi State as a host. That assumes Kansas State wins a crucial home series against Oklahoma this weekend, giving the Wildcats their first series win this season against a team that we are currently projecting to make a regional. The Sooners are good enough to win that series on the road, but right now Kansas State is the hotter team, and it is at home, so we’ll give K-State the benefit of the doubt. The Wildcats carry a two-game lead in the Big 12 into the last weekend, and their records against the top 25 (7-5) and top 100 (21-11) both trump South Alabama’s mark against the top 25 (4-7) and top 100 (15-11). The Big 12 is also the No. 4 RPI conference while the Sun Belt is No. 5, so winning the Big 12 regular-season title does carry some weight. And Kansas State presents more geographic diversity as a host than South Alabama, which is in the same footprint as Florida State and Louisiana State.
Oh man wouldnt this be fun, would hit MHK for a game or two. I want the Cats to go to Omaha so bad. When the CWS was at Rosenblat it was one of the best weekends in sports to attend. Tailgate your face off from sun up to sun down two days in a row. It's the marathon of all marathons. Granted, the Monday-Wednesday hangover sucks but its totally worth it.
Keep winning BoozeCats :drool:
it's better now that it's downtown
Haven't tried it since it moved downtown. I certainly want to though. Is there any decent areas to tailgate though?

I don't know about tailgating are many, many, many more bars and beer gardens around it. it's also much closer to hotels and food than it was. also the stadium is about a million times nicer. better parking as well.

I can help you with this.
Let me ask you guys, what would you use more when getting shattered at the #boozecats game:
1. futons to pass out on;
2. stomach pumping stations; or
3. Sanitary vomitoreum

Besides metal bats, what are the key rules difference between college baseball and regular baseball? Do they play like 7 innings as they do in little league or do they do 9? Is there a mercy rule?

Pete, have you ever been kicked really hard in the taint? Cause that's where you're headed with this line of questioning.

Sure, this is all still in the concept stage but here is what we are thinking. Porcelain or stainless receptacle with sanitized, one use, disposable gagging sticks/rods/feathers (still in R&D)
Say you started at RAB and had 2 summer beers. You then had 2 in the car on the way to the Toint. You then shotgunned 8-10 12 oz cans of Bud Select in the parking lot. Once inside, you really start drinking and have 6-9 of those Tallgrass cans and you funnel 2 Miller Lites at the bottom of the 3rd. You are probably buzzed at this point and feeling a little full. Go home? No. No way. John Currie didn't stick his money making neck out and enact booze sales over here to have you limp home with your tail between your legs because your tummy hurts. Just hit the "Queasy Cat's Commode" and unload what is holding you back. You'd get a semi-private booth with the receptacle and a sanitized implement to jam down your throat. There would likely be an attendant with mouthwash, cigs and he'd tell you if you got any on your shirt/shorts.

I say it's our "mistress sport"
We are married to football and love her very much, we do some basketball to stay busy on the weekends but really don't give a eff - we are pretty awesome at it anyway. Now baseball comes along, all hot and new. She likes to party, drink beer, hang out in the sun just not giving a crap about much of anything. She listens to good tunes, wears really short shorts and is all over our junk because we are really looking hot. Now, we are getting drunk and just banging the crap out of her this spring.

three is a magic number, yes it is, it's a magic number.
somewhere in the ancient, mystic trinity, you get three as a magic number.
the past and the present and the future,
faith hope and charity,
the heart and the brain and the body,
give you three as a magic number.
it takes three legs to make a tripod, or to make a table stand.
it takes three wheels to make a vehicle called a tricycle.
ev'ry triangle has three corners; ev'ry triangle has three sides.
no more, no less; you don't have to guess.
when it's three, you can see it's a magic number.
a man and a woman had a little baby.
yes they did.
they had three in the family.
and that's a magic number.
three, six, nine, twelve, fifteen, eighteen,
twenty-one twenty-four, twenty-seven, thirty.
three, six, nine, twelve, fifteen, eighteen,
twenty-one twenty-four, twenty-seven, thirty.
three times ten is thirty. three times nine is twenty-seven.
three times eight is twenty-four. three times seven is twenty-one.
three times six is eighteen. three times five is fifteen.
three times four is twelve, and three times three is nine,
and three times two is six, and three times one is three, of course.
three times one: what is it? three!
that's a magic number.
a man and a woman had a little baby.
yes they did.

and that's a magic number.
Following this on twitter was extremely fun.

I still can't believe that cow called me fat. Regardless, there is apparently police at the game to protect us fr a death threat and the Athletic Department won't let us stand anymore and are highly monitoring any heckling. In short, eff You Jon Currie
Update?Still 1-0 Cats bottom of the 6th.
Did we lose??
How about a crowd/crowd rowdiness update? Comparable to yesterday? I'm in TN. and can't even get FSC. :frown:
Did we win??
Cats win 5-2.
looks like they'll get host a regional. :cool:
Brad should get a huge recruiting bump from this title.
Are they gonna be any good?Possibly!
Score updates? :excited:
Had to throw OU a bone I guess.
Bookiepimp and Yoman had already done an outstanding job of heckling by the time I showed up tonight. I am proud of goEMAW this weekend.
Can confirm we heckled the bullpen and more importantly the right fielder all night Friday. I believe it was myself and possibly Dlew but I didn't know that was him till later that night! Had their bullpen chuckling at their awful RF.
When will we know for sure about hosting a regional? :D

I think we were pretty close to you guys. You probably shouldn't mention a man's family in your insults towards him, but since you did and got the result you wanted, its a pretty great story.

Look up some good baseball heckling quotes and head on out there.
One of the best times I remember from my undergrad days was going out to heckle the WuShock pitchers in the bullpen as the BatCats pulled off a monumental upset back when WSU was a staple in the CWS.

I am not 100% sure, but I think it is heavily weighted on geography. They really try to keep teams close to their home. If we are a host and Arkansas is not, I would be pretty certain that they will come here. I don't see anywhere close for them to go other than other SEC schools sites, and they won't go to those. Louisville is a possibility, I guess.

My suggested baseball facility improvements:
1. Increase permanent seating capacity by 1000-1200 seats.
2. Build a new baseball facility on to the North end of Brandenberry, two stories with administrative level on top replete with balcony the looks into TFS, all new day-to-day players dressing room below, weightroom, sports medicine and batting cages on the first floor and the ability to walk from the cages into the indoor workout facility. Only the game day clubhouse remains in TFS with the rest turned over to fan accommodations.
3. New scoreboard/videoboard.
The scoreboard is an embarrassment.

Kinda OT here but I never really realized how much of an outlier Arkansas is in the SEC. They are closer to more Big 12 schools than SEC schools I feel like.
You know, the one thing I like best about my facilities ideas is knowing I can spend other peoples money like there's no tomorrow.

Can confirm this, 'pak behind first base was firing on all cylinders Friday Night. Guys brought Hills wife and kids into things, it got a little ugly.
That was me. I've had worse said to me at sporting events. The threat was specifically directed at me, and I'm probably going back for more this evening. Now that I know I'm in his head, I am going to break him.
I still can't believe that cow called me fat. Regardless, there is apparently police at the game to protect us fr a death threat and the Athletic Department won't let us stand anymore and are highly monitoring any heckling. In short, eff You Jon Currie
The winner of each pool advances to the championship game.
In the event of a tie atop a pool, head-to-head pool play results determines tiebreaker.
If unable to break tie, highest/best seeded team among tied teams advances.
Seeds 1-4 will be the home teams on Thursday. Seeds 5-8 will be the home teams on Friday. A coin flip will determine Saturday’s home teams. The home team in
the championship finale will be the undefeated team. If team records are tied, the home designation will go to the higher-seeded team.

I guess it depends on the tie breaker, i mean, how does it work if we were to lose to Baylor, beat OU, and Baylor beats TTU. That's 3 teams that are 2-1. We hold advantage over OU, OU has advantage over Baylor, and Baylor hold advantage over us. Any one know that one?

Tough regional
If K-State can't get by WSU, which is 4-11 this year against major conference teams, with 3 of those wins coming over Northwestern, then Brad Hill should just be fired.Their pitching is trailer trash. Grab a mimosa, that game will be a cake walk.

No, nothing can top the delusion of a former middling Big 12 athletic program, now a current and perpetual middling SEC athletic program.
Some guy will walk and their fans will stand up and yell in unison, "FIRST DOWN".

You know who else has a sweet track around their "football" field? WSU.
Well, maybe ku can host a regional track meet once they get that new track someone else will own for the next 50 years built.
This regional will be either won by wsu or Arkansas. Why - because both these teams have good pitching is better than KSU. Pitching wins championships.
Again, be prepared for a very embarrassing lack of knowledge following the purple pushers around if you head up there. It won't be pretty.
I propose that if WSU and Arkansas face each other that the game be moved to Wichita, Larry Dumont Stadium or to the Eck. The K-State Athletic Department can still come down to pick up the trash and wash dishes afterwards.
This is WSU or Arkansas' regional to win...I know nothing about Bryant, but who knows. KSU has zero experience when it comes to winning a regional and believe it or not that is going to have a lot to do with who wins and who loses. I'm not even sure if KSU has ever won a game in the post season period.
What KSU does have going for them is this weekend could be Brad Hill's opportunity to show the WSU higher ups that he has what it takes to run a program like ours, with real facilities fanbase and money for that matter. I imagine he only makes a fraction of what Gene's making.

I live how delusional Shocker fans are.

The only thing ku has on K-State on the baseball side is a videoboard. Otherwise, tiny little pressbox, no suites, NASCAR metal bleachers with "fancy" brick support columns.
You also need to read the details on that lease and who controls what in terms of the profit centers on that new track facility, and it's far from a forgone conclusion that ku will be hosting any "national meets".

KU's clubhouse is over twice as large as K-State's. Hoglund's capacity is about 2,600, while Tointon's is 2,300, and like you said, KU's new videoboard is one of the nicest in the country. Seriously, though, congrats on hosting the regional. It's a very big accomplishment for a baseball program that didn't even have an NCAA tournament appearance until 2009.

Stony Brook made it all the way to Omaha as a 4 seed last year. But, to your point, it doesn't happen very often as they were only the third 4 seed to ever win a regional.

Stony Brook made it all the way to Omaha as a 4 seed last year. But, to your point, it doesn't happen very often as they were only the third 4 seed to ever win a regional.
Totally forgot about SB, that was a really neat story. Still, the odds are against a 4 seed advancing.
The other notable 4 seed was Fresno State a couple years ago...and they won it all. It was compared to a 16 seed winning the basketball tourney. No idea who the 3rd 4 seed was. But, you know, it's Wichita's regional to lose.

just an FYI for anyone worried about coming to the CWS in Omaha because Rosenblatt is such a horrible dump and in such a shitty location: The new stadium is super nice and in a good location.Rosenblatt was amazing. SD must have just went with puds when he watched games there.

I went there with the same puds I go to the current games with so I've controlled for that.

yup because omaha a doesn't suck any less or more than omaha b
newsflash for the uninformed: omaha sucks :lol:
my buddy just moved there from goodland and calls it facepalm city, he doesn't even call it omaha
Well, maybe ku can host a regional track meet once they get that new track someone else will own for the next 50 years built.
Butthurt much? Where is this rage even coming from?
Why do you think everything is directed at you? You've been on an affirmation/validation rampage for over a week and yet you keep telling us we're butthurt.
Sorry, just didn't see how KU's new $39 million Rock Chalk Sports Complex (privately leased over 30 years so KU can sell alcohol and host concerts and other events on the premises) had anything to do with K-State baseball. Now I realize you're just butthurt that K-State's baseball facilities are so pud, and that KU's new track complex will host national track meets and national track & field championships.
The only thing ku has on K-State on the baseball side is a videoboard. Otherwise, tiny little pressbox, no suites, NASCAR metal bleachers with "fancy" brick support columns.
You also need to read the details on that lease and who controls what in terms of the profit centers on that new track facility, and it's far from a forgone conclusion that ku will be hosting any "national meets".
KU's clubhouse is over twice as large as K-State's. Hoglund's capacity is about 2,600, while Tointon's is 2,300, and like you said, KU's new videoboard is one of the nicest in the country. Seriously, though, congrats on hosting the regional. It's a very big accomplishment for a baseball program that didn't even have an NCAA tournament appearance until 2009.
Hoglund Ballpark is waaaay better than Cico Park.
Tyler Dreiling ?@TylerDreiling 17m
Arkansas players said the reason #KState hits so many doubles and triples is because the Wildcats have a turf field. So there's that. #WPS
Also, fantastic fact checking in that article
It's green painted concrete, according to what I've heard. :dunno:
I'd rather forfeit than allow white trash pig aggie fans into our upscale community.

Hmm, as I recall the AstroTurf Gameday Grass 360 Field at Tointon Family Stadium has blades that are longer in the outfield, than in the infield, having been on those surfaces before, and seen them at many trade shows. I find it a little hard to believe they make that much of a difference in terms of ball roll. This isn't Royals Stadium circa original AstroTurf days.

Can we forfeit?

Haven't followed baseball enough to know for sure, but we will host a super regional if Oregon St loses their regional and we win ours, no?
Makes me sick to see the NCAA send the Hogs to that ugly K-State stadium. A team with elite facilities and fan support like we have should not have be sent to this dump. They are definitely missing out on making a pretty penny by shunning us put of a hosting position.
Hey, ease up! They brought in an extra couple of real nice, top of the line, metal bleachers from a local high school. I'm sure that added at least 5 or 6 hundred premium extra seats.

So what do we know about Washington State?
Starting pitching sets the tone for the game. Both starters were bad, WSU's was worse.
KSU really is not very good. Pitching, bleh. Fielding, ugh. Hitting, not bad vs. poor pitching.
Arkansas will win this regional. Book it.

Agreed. Uncharacteristic throwing error in the 8th, however, helped Bryant--now Bryant 4-1, Ark batting in bottom of the 8th.

The guy's loyalty and dedication to all things K-State is unsurpassed. :thumbs:
Assuming we win our regional and Oregon State wins their regional, a Super between the two would be best of three and, in all probability, played at their place. So, I look for some KSU games in the Pacific Northwest next week.

So did DeBord intentionally cream that guy too hard or what? I missed it. Does he have a concussion? Was the heater thrown at DeBord's head in the ninth warranted? :horrorsurprise:

- After watching the replay about 10 times, DeBord seemed to aim for his head. I personally think it was a dirty play by DeBord, but everyone on gopo loved it and thought it was a clean play so take your pick. Not sure if this had anything to do with the Flattery situation, but it's very possible.

He tagged the Bryant player up around his jaw & knocked him out & dropped the ball in the process. The Bryant player never touched home so DeBord picked up the ball & tagged the dazed Bryant player.

I umpire youth league baseball and I see a lot of wacky crap when I'm working. Real goofy stuff that you just didn't think was possible in the game of baseball. I've never seen a kid eff up an intentional walk. Congratulations PigAggie, that pitcher is worse than a 12 year old.

the movies aren't as good as the series but they are still funny as hell. I believe they are on Netflix...one is called The Big Dirty and the other is Countdown to Liquor Day.
Who keeps yelling "SWING!" on every single pitch? I mean that's most definitely DeBord, right? Or just some dedicated boozecat fan who really wants their guys to swing every time?
The dude that his mother swore to that Robb would marry one of his daughters gets pissed and kills Robb. Kills Greywolf. Takes Grewywolfs head and sows it onto Robbs body and sends it to Winterfell. Read the books and watch the game!Just pull it up on ESPN3 and mute your compy and watch shows and party when we catch our fire.
Good plan. Game of Thrones is going to be a DOOZY tonight....the "bloody wedding" episode.
Pitching was nails.
Pitching was nails.Confirmed. There were some legit wicked googilies out there tonight.
PigAggie and ShockerAggie appear to be two whiny ass fanbases.
They both pretty much bitch about everything.
You'd think two Elite programs like that would have no problem with K-State.
Van Horn has always been a whiny ass little bitch (a lot like Gene Stephenson) so I'll be interested to see what he blames this loss on.

Great we lost to a bunch of methheads.
Congrats to K-State. Just thank your lucky stars we shot ourselves in the foot in the first game, and you dodged seeing one of Stanek, Astin, or Fant.
Now hold on ther fellers. Remember those said we got screwed by not hosting. They need tos tand up and admit wrong doing. Remember those who felt we got shafted going to Manhatton. They need to stand up and be recognised. Remember those who said what dogs we were for suggesting we couldn't hit or field well enough to win a regional. They need to fess up that they were wrong. Where is all the Folks who dissed us Folks who believed we'd get just what we got.
Here's what's sad - K State was shockingly mediocre.
it may be homerish and petty but after seeing kivett or w/e his name is celebrate after scoring on the wild pitch i want ksu to get absolutely hammered by whoever they play.

THIS is 2012-2013 Hog sports.
#8 preseason football and we get a clown to coach a very talented team to 4-8 with Jack S*** to show for it
Basketball team expected to make NCAA tourney according to just about every media outlet. Lots of talent, JACK S*** to show for it.
#1 preseason baseball team, TONS of talent and draft picks and guess what?!? We consistently shot ourselves in the foot ALL SEASON, therefore:
JACK S*** TO SHOW FOR IT!
Good news is no media outlet will pick the Hogs preseason for ANYTHING EVER AGAIN!
This year has been a joke of a year for the 3 major Hog Sports. Quickly, EVERYONE OVER TO MMQB!

Was it not sold because it was NCAA CWS? Or did K-State stop the trial process of alcohol?
The one exception to the above has been suites and stadium clubs, does Tointon have either of those?Tell me about the booze situation at the home of the boozecats. Heard it wasn't permitted.

NCAA Champ events prohibit boozers from boozing (unless elites like Limestone back pocket some Watermelon Vodka airplane bottles)
They also allow anyone who can prove they are a townie to crush suds.
Next year, KSU should just put a couple of boxes above the bleachers and then just classify all of the seating as a stadium club. Then they can sell booze to everyone.I am surprised Currie missed this opportunity at the regional this year.

this is the most fair and logical solution.

I wouldn't be surprised if hill left for wsu. He's pissed at his contract situ and some in the ad are apparently pissed at him for outside the workplace activities. Will be super interesting to see what happens to him after this season.
Ohhh man FAU just hit a grand slam to take the lead over North Carolina in the 9th.
Hill would never leave for WSU.

Also this UNC/FAU game is absolutely bananas. Bottom of the 13th now, tied at 11. One out Heels with runners on 1st and 2nd.

Hey man, had WSU not pussed out, had they decided to bite the bullet like K-State did, they may actually be in Louisville type situation. But they rely so much on local corporate largesse for everything and there was no stomach for football.

#Fanningbrag
Her gf is going too though :(
Did you just out Claire Coggins?
No one is outing Claire. It was well known besides hooking up with Ian Campbell, she also use to drive down to Norman cause she was seeing OU's wbb pg/guard.

Anybody know if she let's dudes join in the fun.... or at least watch?
:excited:
If Deb can get $1mill, Brad surely deserves $300k.
Deb makes 1mil?
Are you rough ridin' serious?
Fire Deb, hire a new filly for 500K, Raise Hill to 500k and save cash.
:jerk: :flush: :rolleyes: :dubious: :comeatme: :bitchslap:If Deb can get $1mill, Brad surely deserves $300k.
This times four billion. Keep those booze sales going, and you'll see baseball out-earn women's basketball in a rough ridin' heart beat.
I'd cut Deb's salary in half and give that cash to Hill.
It's ridiculous that we're paying her that much money.

Apparently OSU is really good. Pitching as good as Arkansas. Batting as good as KSU. And while their stadium isn't huge (3,200), their students are still in school, so the atmosphere should be that much crazier.

No, that was the fan talking. In reality? WE'RE mumped!!! :runaway:Meh, we'll smash their faces in.
Care to put some money on it?
Oregon State is legit, fellas. Probably the fav to win it all this year. Their pitching rotation is flat-out ridiculous, and their batters are clutch. They're kind of like K-State in that they always seem to find a way to get on base, whether it's via the HBP, bunt, or walk.
Meh, we'll smash their faces in.
Care to put some money on it?
one positive note: we only have to win 67% of the time! :DThat's only a D! We can do that! :D

The nice thing about Titletown is we get to just be fans of one school, instead of being tshirt fans of multiple schools. Feels good Ben. Feels really good.
I hope we win. Because I love the state of Kansas and only want good things for it.

T-shirt fan of multiple schools? I'm a KU alum, and my future wife went to Oregon State. I'm glad K-State fans are proud of their school as well. Winning in the post-season's pretty fun, isn't it?
'Grats, beems! I'm totally going to kill your number now. :excited:There is a 31 year old rich chick who is betting a LOT of money that you won't.
Beems, if you invite me I will totally show up and bring a medium elite gift. Please consider. Also congrats.
congrats beems. treat her like a gentleman.
Oregon State has won 14 consecutive NCAA tournament games in Corvallis; it has reached the super regionals five times, and three of the last four teams have gone to Omaha; two of those teams, of course, won it all.
Guys I know it's weird to be facing a conference opponent in the postseason but titletown has mushed OSU's face in all year.

In an era in which many Division I athletic departments are drowning in red ink, Kansas State is firmly in the black. In fact, it's among the most fiscally sound departments in the country, setting records for total gifts, revenues and profits over the past few years.

Why is this your favorite part? Hooray for being one of the cheapest D-1 programs in the country. Maybe if we splashed some more money around, paid some players, etc., we'd win some championships instead of just being in the conversation.

According to the Eagle's Tony Adame, WSU has not contacted Hill and he wouldn't even listen if they did. WSU fans are gonna melt down so hard when they get turned down by like everyone on their top 20 wishlist.

I used to live in the burbs of Denver, Moved to Wichita. Extreme East Wichita, basically in a suburb of Andover. And I got to tell ya, its not that bad. There are some real nice parts in Wichita. Sure it could be better, and there is a bunch of white trash, but no more than any other city. Its obviously not a large metro like KC but still has 750,000 metro, not small. Personally I would HATE to live in Topeka! Manhattan is pretty nice because its a nice area and lots of college kids also....

Mrs. Bones and I lived in Wichita for a few years and enjoyed it. We took in a few WSU basbeall and basketball games. Good sports atmosphere. We came back to MHK for family reasons, but do not regret the time we spent in Wichita.
That said, we much prefer MHK and always will. Wichita wants to be a great sports town, but really won't be unless they take the plunge and invest in the risk of resuming college FB. IMO, Perkins never should have pulled the plug on FB. To resurrect that program will take years, but they should give it a go.

Yes, it is. He's been trying to transition somewhat to KC for awhile now. Hence the reason tanks/pounders/whatever was for sale.

I don't think anyone has ever called it a restaurant before, so probably not.
A couple of years ago, one of the players on Florida State's baseball team was a Canadian. There is a section behind home plate called the "Animals" (they are rabid FSU fans who organize heckling, chants, and other fanatic antics), and each home game they would break into a rowdy and loud version of "O Canada" when this player would come up to bat for the second time (usually around the fifth inning). More than one visiting team would simply stop what they were doing and stare in amazement when the Canadian national anthem was sung in the middle of a ballgame in Florida!

I think it's fun.
I mean, seriously, anything that livens the pulse at a baseball game is a good thing.
The worst part about baseball as an observer is how slow the damn game is. I think singing, "Oh Canada," in the bottom of the 5th each game, plus other songs, makes the crowd more lively, and it gives people something to look forward to.
Baseball is stuffy enough. Let the people have their fun.

can't lie, this was the first college baseball game that i've ever watched from the first pitch to the end.
boring as crap except for the bottom of the ninth/the whole 10th. but boozecats!
Let's just hope OSU's pitcher tomorrow can't go 120+ pitches like the stud tonight did. I don't think the rest of our starting lineup has it in them to keep it close that long.

Tonights starter has been extremely good, but tomorrow nights starter (moore?), statistically has been off the charts and one of the top 10 pitchers this year, but he's a freshman.

The way we work the count, I'm much more worried about stamina than the pitcher's stats over the course of the season. We worked Boyd all game and he stayed in through 7 innings for like 120 pitches. That's just incredible.
Looks like we'll be on ESPN2 tonight since the UCLA series is done.:katpak:

I mean, let's look at what happened last night in front of their all-time record crowd of 3,574.
We get down to our last out--our last strike, even--and super EMAW stud Ross Kivett thinks to himself, "no thanks. I'm going to be a pro ball player, I'm gonna be a total boss and effortlessly just crush this triple into the right-center gap and make two outfielders look like total dummies when they nearly banana peel it on the warning track. Then we're just gonna score 5 straight runs."
Anyone have links to any Beaver boards where we can read weird fan complaints and stuff?
:bill:
Oh and also when Kivett crossed the plate to make it 2-2 in the top of the ninth he had the most adorable excitable expression. Smiled with all his beautiful EMAW teeth and shook his fists and whatnot. Gonna need a gif or at least a screen cap.
I thought last night was their ace? But this guy seems pretty ace-y.

Anyone notice the ladycatfan in the crowd yesterday who would do a super-high, shrill "WOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!"? (Especially toward the end of the game.) Bet the OSU fans were super pissed as they ate crap and lost by 4 after being 1 strike away from winning.

Should be interesting to see who starts tomorrow. I don't think it will matter though.
We're going to get Rice'd.
We're going to get mowed down by an ugly pizza face ginger afro kid
Do we have a better starter that we saved for game 3 to get a better matchup, or is our second-best starting pitcher just that awful?

If I were Brad, I would just have Matthys start tomorrow. He is our best pitcher and will give us the best chance to win. I don't care if he hasn't started a game this year.

Have we even had a single HBP tonight? This game is boring. I LOVE when we get plunked.
Hopefully their number three starter is pud.

These rough ridin' announcers suck. I can barely understand the Mexican one.
Just saw a pic on FB of a kid at the airport holding up a sign to the team as they flew out a few days ago. They appear to be flying Sun Country metal. :flush:
Brad.
'cruit pitchers. Srsly.
You're right, they looked super good yesterday.
Matthys will not and should not start. You are an idiot if you think so. Esquivel starts, hopefully we get three - four solid innings out of him and we piece together our way to Matthys in the 8th.
still dont have cable/internet to watch this game tonight :curse:This thread is full of Neg nancy's

How does that make me an idiot? He is our best pitcher and a trip to Omaha is on the line. Even if he doesn't pitch a lot of innings, a good start where we're not down by 5 runs would be nice.
I hate to break it to you guys, but Wexler is Oregon State's best pitcher. The truth is that K-State blew their wad on Friday night, and pitched the only good starter on the roster. Sorry, boys. You're mumped.

Well, they did. Wetzler is 1st team all Pac 12, 1st team regional team, 8-1 with a 1.98 ERA, and was just selected in the 5th round by the Phillies.

Their pitcher last night was their ace.
The thing we have going for us is that this is baseball, where upsets in a single game are much more likely than in other sports. Sure, OSU is the better team and will have the better pitcher tonight. We are good, too, though, and I think we have about a 30% chance of getting the win tonight.

This is awesome coming from a fan of a baseball program who is just now competing in its first ever Super Regional. KU baseball has a much more successfull program than K-State. We went to a Super Regional just a few short years ago (lost to UNC) and went to the College World Series back in the early '90's. Yeah, I'm an Oregon State bandwagon fan, but I've been to Oregon State baseball, basketball, and football games, so I think I'm qualified to speak on their respective programs. Wetzler is a stud and has been Oregon State's hottest pitcher in the tournament.

I don't think you ask a Freshman closer to suddenly become a starter with a trip to the CWS on the line. I think it fucks with your whole pitching staff if they get to the CWS and you will need other pitchers in the game regardless. Let those pitchers pitch in their normal spots and bring Matthys in a bit earlier if you need. Its ridiculous to change everything you've been doing all year and panic. It would send a terrible message to the players who have been pretty clutch all year. Let them do their normal thing and hopefully they will be clutch again.
Well our only options tonight are guys who haven't even started a game this year - Esquivel, Williams, or Matthys. I think Matthys or Williams gives us the best chance to win.

Esquivel has started for us in past seasons, just not regularly. He is the most experienced of the three options. Williams was our most used reliever last season and Matthys is our established closer. When you consider Esquivel's work against Arkansas last weekend it becomes a pretty easy choice, idiot.

Probably. It's going to be very important that we score a few runs and have a lead or at least keep it close in the early innings so that OSU can't just leave their starter in the game for 8-9 innings.
IT'S MATTHYS :cheers:
The same pitcher can pitch two different times in the same ballgame as long as there are 6 defensive outs between the two appearances. What if he pitches the first two and the last three?

One, I can't recall that ever happening before. Seems like it would be hard to stay warm/loose. Also, five innings is probably too many. I want to reach the CWS as much as anyone but I don't want to ruin a freshman's arm. Now, if he was a senior...

I could see more than three innings if he's pitching well. It's not like they need to save his arm for tomorrow. I like the move. We are at a complete disadvantage in starting pitching. This shakes things up and is not what Oregon State was expecting to see.
where was it announced about the starter?

Jake's high school coaches.
what time is game?
Personally I would start the game off with Williams for probably 2 innings and then go to Matthys in the 3rd. The positive of going with Matthys early is you can max out his innings if he has a great day. If he throws a 8 pitch inning than you can probably extend him to 4 innings instead of just the expected 3.
With the announcement of Matthys I think it will go like this.
Matthys for 4
Esquivel for 2
Williams for 2 and
Witt for 1
Witt is the guy with the most saves after Matthys but this is a really weird situation because Witt hasn't pitched in a long time. I know he didn't pitch during the Big 12 tournament or Regional. Flattery is the other guy I am expecting might see action.
Look for a complete game shutout from Matthys. You can take that prediction to the bank.

On the bright side, Matthys seems like he is only getting stronger as the game continues

Rail yard sandwiched between a couple buildings (no joke). They don't even have a wall down both lines, just a chalk line distinguishing where the ball is "out of play"
our shortstop, his arm is made of a non muscular substance
this is where we absolutely thrash themGrand slam ties it up. :gocho:
Brad really has kind of a oscar Weber "aw, shucks" vibe to him that I hate. Need more Frank, less oscar.

He wasn't out of the base path. You round 2nd where he dodged him.

it's baseball. the coach doesn't do crap during the game. he's there to watch, he might as well enjoy himself.
All that and only 1 rough ridin' run to show for it
JFC Brad got us this far and he did it with his own players. Comparing him to oscar is rough ridin' moronic.

Why do they all sprint full speed to the dugout? Calm down weirdos.lol. This tactic is taught at an early stage. It's suppose to illustrate how hard you hustle. All it does is get you winded. It's thought of as Busch league if you don't.
I've never seen a bigger collection of inbred looking hayseeds in my life than these OSU players.
what a sad shitsack of a team
Strike this mother rough rider out
Oregon state complete rough ridin' idiotsI've never seen a bigger collection of inbred looking hayseeds in my life than these OSU players.

Nice of that OSU player to sacrifice with two outs. :lol:
yeah, Meyers will pinch hit to lead off the ninth.
Damn, well good season, we should be pretty good for next year
tough, tough loss. good season BatCats.
dark horsewill take :frown:

True this. We have almost the entire team coming back.
So does Kivett take the Royals contract or come back?
Tons of chances my ass, loss is squarely on that rough ridin' umpire.

He was drafted by the Indians. Conlon was drafted by the Royals in the late, late rounds.

dang. got pretty excited when we had that 3-0 count :frown:

I guess Kivett is slotted to make about $130k in signing bonus for 10th round. King will get around $300k.
I assume the decision is whether or not coming back gets him into the first five rounds and essentially makes him about $100k more.

This, but we are losing some key pieces. Our three best players in Witt, King, and Kivett are all gone. I really hope Conlon stays.
Basically our entire pitching staff is back but hopefully Brad recruited some studs (doubtful).
This is awesome coming from a fan of a baseball program who is just now competing in its first ever Super Regional. KU baseball has a much more successfull program than K-State. We went to a Super Regional just a few short years ago (lost to UNC) and went to the College World Series back in the early '90's. Yeah, I'm an Oregon State bandwagon fan, but I've been to Oregon State baseball, basketball, and football games, so I think I'm qualified to speak on their respective programs. Wetzler is a stud and has been Oregon State's hottest pitcher in the tournament.

The Jayhawks would once again find themselves in a regional in the 2006 NCAA Division I Baseball Tournament after winning the 2006 Big 12 Baseball Tournament. That year KU traveled to Corvalis, Ore. for the Corvalis Regional. KU went 1-2 and did not advance.
I couldn't imagine what it would be like to make the regionals and not win 2 games. Teams actually do that?

then they are dumb
I think King is gone, Kivett 50/50, and Conlon stays.
It's time to plow some money into baseball facilities and work to get this thing consistantly at this level. K-State hosts this thing throughout and I think the chances of going to the WCS improve significantly. It's the 3rd most visible sport (arguably) in NCAA athletics, it keeps your school in front of people and on TV into the summer.

It would be pretty sweet to see the stadium expand to about 3k seats with a new video board.
I like Tointon. It's really a nice looking ballpark. Just throw in some more permanent seats, add a few amenities, and maybe spruce it up a bit.
Time to strike while the iron is hot, especially with KU and WSU being really mediocre.

All kidding aside, K-State had a very good baseball team this year. You guys have a classy coach and a good group of players. I was impressed with what I saw from K-State last night and throughout the season. 2013 was a great year for K-State athletics (and TSC as a whole), and it sucks that you guys missed out on the CWS.
As far as KU baseball making a super regional in the past few years goes, I was mistaken. KU lost to UNC in 2009 in the 4th game of their regional. For some reason, I thought KU lost to UNC in the super regional. Score one for goEMAW there. You guys were right... I was wrong. Now I'm going to graciously bow out of this thread so you ladies and gents can discuss your favorite baseball team in peace.

Robert Lipscomb and I believe that K-State baseballs prospects improved with the departure of Nebraska to the Big 10. The Big 10 has been pretty bad in baseball and we could have even more recruiting success up north.
Some of these Illinois, Iowa and Minnesota kids are trying to stay as close to home as they can but want to play in a warmer weather conference.

He's been a head coach before, with decent success at McNeese St. I'm not saying he's the best hire ever but Arkansas had top 10 classes in 5 of his 7 years. He was also the hitting instructor at Bama in the late 90's,when they were setting at sorts of offensive records. (And they had 3 consecutive top 10 classes.) If Hill left, I'd be pretty damn excited about hiring this guy. :dunno:

RK seems like the kind of player who could play any position you put him at. It could be more about what abilities the other guys have that are going to have to step in. I'll be more curious to see where he bats in the lineup with King leaving the cleanup spot is wide open, especially considering no one on the team hits for much power.
Dalrymple probably has the most speed of the group, so wouldn't that make sense for CF?

As someone new to baseball, is it possible for a closer to become a consistent starter or whatever they're called? I know Matthys started out last game but could it be a regular thing? And if it is is that common?

Last year Nate Williams was our closer. This year he was bumped up to a weekend starter before moving back to the pen.
He's the only other example I can think of where Brad Hill has turned a closer into a starter.
James Allen and Evan Marshall all stayed in the pen to my knowledge.
As someone new to baseball, is it possible for a closer to become a consistent starter or whatever they're called? I know Matthys started out last game but could it be a regular thing? And if it is is that common?

This is going to sound cheap tuck, but I wonder the feasibility of moving the old north end zone board to the ball diamond. If we're actually moving that board, we might as well use it. If we don't have the money to get baseball a new one, might as well repurpose.Really hope that in between all the big stuff over at BSFS and hopefully Bramlage that they can do a nice spruce up and maybe add another 900-1000 permanent seats to the TFS/FMF

1) Video board.
2) Clean up/cut down raggedy trees in the outfield.
3) More permanent seats.

The problem I see with cutting down trees (a its cutting down trees :curse:) is that area is pretty scrubby in general. It would take a lot more work then just cutting down this trees to make the outfield wall look better.
I see no need for more seating until there is more fan support throughout the entire season. Attendance in the noncon is already brutal just because of the nature of the schedule and it being on the periphery of notice until later in the season.

#Omaha2014
Connor Goedert had a monster freshman year. He hit .326 with 22 doubles and 11 home runs. He was an All-Conference and All-Region selection as a freshman. On Monday, he signed his National Letter of Intent to play baseball next year at Kansas State University. Goedert follows in the footsteps of his dad Joe and his brother Jared who both played at Kansas State. Goedert will join a Kansas State squad coming off one of their best years in recent history, going 45-19 and winning the Big 12 Conference Title with a 16-8 conference record. Goedert will be expected to step in and produce right away for the Wildcats, as they try and continue their success.
Goedert said "It's a very exciting opportunity and I'm honored to be able to play where my entire family went to school."

That said, rankings in baseball usually make even less sense than in football or hoops.

About Our Grades
We love the 20-80 scouting scale at Baseball America; we use it to assess everything from prospects to our favorite local barbecue restaurants. So we figured it would be fun and instructive to subject our preseason top 25 rankings to the same scrutiny.
Scouts grade prospects on how their tools compare with those of an average major leaguer, but we are rating teams relative to an average college baseball team with NCAA tournament aspirations. In addition to grading our top 25 teams on typical tools like hitting for average, hitting for power, speed and defense, we have divided the fifth tool (arm) into two categories: starting pitching and bullpen. We’re also giving teams a grade for Experience/Intangibles—think of it as a team’s “makeup,” if you like. For each category, a grade of 50 is average, comparable to a typical NCAA tournament contender; 60 is above-average; 70 is well above-average; 40 is below-average; and 30 is well below-average. Twenty and 80 are the extreme limits in each direction.
Finally, each team is given an Overall Future Potential (OFP) grade. The OFP scale:
80: A team for the ages. An overwhelming favorite with no obvious weaknesses. Think 1981 Arizona State or 1996 Louisiana State. There is no team like this heading into 2014.
70: Elite. A leading contender for the national title. (Virginia.)
65: Well-above-average. Legitimate championship contender. (Oregon State, Indiana, Cal State Fullerton, North Carolina State, Florida State, South Carolina, Mississippi State, Louisiana State.)
60: Above-average. Strong Omaha contender. (Vanderbilt, Oregon, UCLA, Clemson, Louisiana-Lafayette)
55: Slightly above-average. A threat to win a conference title and perhaps reach Omaha. (Rice, Miami, North Carolina, Texas, Texas Christian, Louisville, Alabama, Kansas State, Florida, Texas A&M, Arkansas.)
50: Average. Strong NCAA tournament teams who could make a postseason run. (None in this year’s preseason Top 25)
Ranking teams is far from an exact science, and there will doubtless be surprises and disappointments as the season unfolds. Last season, seven of the eight teams that eventually made the College World Series were ranked in our preseason top 12—but one team, Indiana, was unranked. We think applying the 20-80 scale is an illuminating way to gauge each team’s projected strengths and weaknesses heading into the season.

Of course, Hill will be asking for more from his pitchers. He said Nate Williams, Blake McFadden and Matt Wivinis will all miss the year with injuries, leaving the Wildcats with few proven pitchers.
“Those are three guys who threw a lot of innings last year that we won’t have,” Hill said. “That’s one of those things we are going to have to work through.”

2 runs in the first! not a bad start
Ross the Stud/Boss hit a two run homer! :Woohoo:
It's a long season guys, we will be ok
hosting a super regional would be huge
I would get so incredibly hammered. I would make that stadium look like a drunken version of the streets of Kiev but everyone is wearing purple.
baseball kicks so much ass
Yeah, we have basically ruined our shot for hosting a SR
a pretty spectacular pants-shitting right out of the gate. It's Royals-esque. Eliminate all hope before you even have a home game

yup. only thing left to do is throw Hochevar for our next game and let everyone know were just here for the beer.
gotta get knocked down before you can get back up
or so they say
I feel bad for Ross. He could be living it up in the bigs
Meh. Hoppy sport.
I'm hoping they serve indie pale ales this year.Meh. Hoppy sport.

I honestly had no expectation of hosting a SR. Regional, sure, but SR would have been a huge surprise to me.
Any video links to the game right now?

any expectation of participating in either one?
As a lifelong Cats fan it's hard for me to not be an eternal optimist when it comes all things K-State. I believe that things are going to work out. I was on #team9and4. After our 2-3 start I still thought the basketball team would be competitive. Things will be ok this year for the Boozecats.
A little perspective... Last year we didn't exactly come out of the gates firing on all cylinders. We were 10-7 at one point, with few quality wins and embarrassing losses (3-0 to No. Colo and 13-2 to WV).
0-5 sucks, but it's not the end of the world. The schedule eases up quite a bit when we get home next weekend. Not worried...that much...yet.

Grand Canyon killed UNO, should take that one from them. Northern Colorado is terrible, should sweep them, 2 of 3 at worst. Air Force can throw an ace, but they're pretty bad, should take both from them, split at worst.
Will be disappointed if we don't enter conference play at 13-7/12-8.
This UNO team seems pretty small timey. Somebody should go to the game and pester them about their program getting cut and wrestling getting added back. At least their wrestling program could win stuff.

Great start from a guy who's only gone 5.1 innings all year coming in.
5.2 innings, 2 hits, 2 BB, 5 K. He got tagged with the two runs in the 6th, but the leadoff hitter (Gruber) reached on an error with one out. Then Griep struck out the next batter, before intentionally walking their three-hole hitter. Jordan Floyd came in to face a sub .200 hitter and promptly gave up a double down the line. Still, only 1 of those runs was earned.
Nice to see back-to-back big games from Mitch Meyer. 2-3 with 2 runs and 3 RBI on Sunday then the 3-run bomb tonight. That's huge for the K-State offense.
Game tomorrow, Nice weather projected. Guess who'll be there :Woot:

Meyer is B12 Player of the Week. Broke out of early season funk like a boss.
9-for-16, 6 R, 11 RBI, 2 2B, 2 HR in last five games. He came into that third Iowa game hitting just 2-for-24 (.083) and has upped his season batting average to .275. He's now slugging at .500 for the season with an OPB of .340 for an OPS of .840.
During his hot streak his OPS is an astonishing 2.024 (I didn't even know they went that high).
This offense is starting to come around.

I expect us to struggle a bit early in the year because we will be behind most southern teams from not being able to practice outdoors. Come conference play, I think we will have caught up and will be better than every other big 12
Outscored the opponents 66-5 in the last 5 games, pretty good work if you ask me.
We'll see how the series goes in Norman this weekend. It was a pleasure to watch a few innings of CatsWithBats with Seven this afternoon.

This team just doesn't have the pitching. Losing McFadden, Wiv, and Williams hurts a ton. The poor pitching is putting too much pressure on the offense.
We'll be fortunate to make the tournament.
Now our baseball team can't win away from home either.House
I haven't lost faith yet. It wasn't a good start but OU is good. Matthys can pitch better than that and our bats are going to blow up a lot of pitchers this year.

Griep's a Gatorade high school player of the year in Nebraska. Props to him for mushing nubb. Also, can confirm a stud. Will be in the weekend rotation soon.Bump. If Mavorhis was more consistent we'd be cooking with fire.

But Griep should be the Ace, arm issues last year prevented him being in the rotation. Low 90s velocity + quality stuff to compliment makes him tough to hit.

I have a personal vendetta against brad. The previous coach wanted me to walk on before he "retired". Brad didn't allow walk-ons at that time. I've always secretly hated k-state baseball until last year. However, if he's taking us back in the crapper again, take a hike. He's got like an all time losing record in the conference.
fattyfest fundraiser in the making herePay cash to pitch to Fanning. I'm in! First pitch is right in his ear hole.

Clark was a terrible coach. It's no surprise he would be interested in you but known stud and boss Hill mushed the ship out of your face.
Wacky, you're an absolute treat sometimes.:D

Sorry to go all DScott on you, Fanning. Brad Hill told me the same thing via email my first full year at KSU after spending my freshman yr at a small college.
Great form, though, nose over toes!
brad hill was/is a pro at smushing local talent.

Ross mentioned it in his post-game interview, and a few of the guys have mentioned it on twitter tonight, but something has occurred with RJ's family. I'm hoping it's nothing serious, I wish him and his family the best.

P.S.- I'm done blowing up this thread. Clark did talk to me about walking on and yes Brad mushed me. I'm happy that he's apparently allowing walk-ons now. I know he wasn't when he showed up cause he brought a lot of his guys from his previous program. I just wanted to defend myself, since Big train (when the eff did this poster show up on the scene?) wants to throw jabs at someone he's never seen play in real life.
GO CATS!
Good for him. I guess that gives him the right to critique someone he's never seen play before. :clap::love:

TBT has been around for a while, he also played college baseball...
If a D1 coach, no matter the program says you should walk on, shouldn't you be getting offers from smaller schools? I don't think you understand how tough D1 baseball is.I did. I turned them down. William Jewell, Benedictine, Johnson county, allen county, Washburn, St. Mary's, small schools out of state, etc. I just never mentioned that. My heart was with K-State.

Last year we were 16-8 in conference.
This year we have started 1-2 in conference (arguably our toughest series).
It can still happen. Ethan Landon looks like he might be perform like Matthys did last year.

What was our noncon record last year? And OU was picked to finish 5th in a nine team league. How is that the toughest series? And OU didn't speak a series win in, they beat our heads in the first two games... We haven't show anything that suggests we're even postseason team. UT, TCU, OSU, etc are going to butt rape us.
Will the #boozecats over look KU this weekend because of how bad KU sucks?

Poorly timed imo.
On the game: two stud pitchers dueling. Two great plays by KU RF Afenir won them the game imo.
All joking aside, that's a Brad Hill thing. Errors, horrid base running and awful plate discipline. Last year was really the anomaly.
I wasn't really keen on sac bunting Conlon with no outs in the bottom of the eighth, especially with Kivett on first. He was 9-9 on steal attempts at that point and you have the meat of the order coming up against a pitcher who was getting up in pitch count. That was before the pop out on the bunt from Conlon. Of course, Kivett eventually did steal with two outs, but by then the damage had been done.
I get that it is pretty basic old-school small ball at that point in the game. Down 2-1 late, etc. etc., but I just don't like the idea of giving away an out there especially with the team's best hitters waiting in the wings.

There was one instance where Dalrymple (I think) effed up during Kivetts double later in the game. Third base coach was waving to stop but Dalrymple kept going and then got tagged out. Pretty dumbass move imo. Left us with 2 outs and 1 runner on, instead of 1 out with 2 on.

Watching the reply of the game right now on TimeWarner (just got back from the Royals game) with Mike Clark and Smoller discussing the possibility of moving the college baseball a month to alleviate the advantage warmer weather states have (SEC, Big West, Pac12) over the states that have winter.
Things I found intriguing:
1. Big 12 coaches voted unanimously, in an informal poll, in favor for the one month push. :surprised:
2. Big 10 might have more than 2 teams make the tourney. :Lurk:
3. Conference games mid April-June, uh hello summer staycation you lucky townies. :Woohoo:
4. CWS over the 4th of July. :Carl:
5. Push for Iowa State to get baseball back??? :Lurk:
I think this will also help beer sells, imo.
But seriously, this would be amazing if it were to happen.

I have the same issue with watching video on kstatehd.tv, fwiw.uh, what? They just enroll in 6 hours or more of summer classes vs going to play summer ball for the Hays Larks or Rossville Rattlers. Baseball players don't have time for internships anyway. I'd argue it has the the biggest time commitment of all the olympic college sports.
While i agree that an outdoor sport would be better served if all of its participants were able to begin practice at the same time, it would be unprecedented (i believe, factCats?) for regular season competition to extend that far into the non-scholastic segment of the year. Sure student athletes wouldn't have to contend with class any longer, but what about the things that usually busy student athletes in the summertime? I know my company has hired members of the basketball team to work as summer interns and while Frank had a fit about them missing some voluntary workouts over the summer, they was ultimately allowed to take the position. One of which now works for us full time. So, in this scenario, how would a baseball player expect to explore work opportunities like his peers if hes expected to fulfill scholarship obligations all summer? It might be an edge case, but its worth thinking about.

I feel like Griep possesses the ability to be our ace-He currently starts Sundays. Last year Mavhoris started Fridays but it was Flattery who started game 1 vs Oregon St in the supers due to his inconsistencies toward the end of the year.

While i agree that an outdoor sport would be better served if all of its participants were able to begin practice at the same time, it would be unprecedented (i believe, factCats?) for regular season competition to extend that far into the non-scholastic segment of the year. Sure student athletes wouldn't have to contend with class any longer, but what about the things that usually busy student athletes in the summertime? I know my company has hired members of the basketball team to work as summer interns and while Frank had a fit about them missing some voluntary workouts over the summer, they was ultimately allowed to take the position. One of which now works for us full time. So, in this scenario, how would a baseball player expect to explore work opportunities like his peers if hes expected to fulfill scholarship obligations all summer? It might be an edge case, but its worth thinking about.
To go off what TownieCat said, yes, an argument against this would be minor league/rookie ball leagues. There are fall leagues, though.
Watching the reply of the game right now on TimeWarner (just got back from the Royals game) with Mike Clark and Smoller discussing the possibility of moving the college baseball a month to alleviate the advantage warmer weather states have (SEC, Big West, Pac12) over the states that have winter.
Things I found intriguing:
1. Big 12 coaches voted unanimously, in an informal poll, in favor for the one month push. :surprised:
2. Big 10 might have more than 2 teams make the tourney. :Lurk:
3. Conference games mid April-June, uh hello summer staycation you lucky townies. :Woohoo:
4. CWS over the 4th of July. :Carl:
5. Push for Iowa State to get baseball back??? :Lurk:
I think this will also help beer sells, imo.
But seriously, this would be amazing if it were to happen.
Makes sense to me. Curious how baseball fits in with the Title IX stuff with ISU. Seems like they're subbing baseball for wrestling and that's not going to change. :dunno:
Plus the wrestling program has got to be a money pit for them- traditions aside.Watching the reply of the game right now on TimeWarner (just got back from the Royals game) with Mike Clark and Smoller discussing the possibility of moving the college baseball a month to alleviate the advantage warmer weather states have (SEC, Big West, Pac12) over the states that have winter.

I'm fully aware baseball doesn't make that much money, but the month back push would help the north teams with more non con home games hence sell more tickets.

What's funny is that they're not great in wrestling anymore either. The wrestling version of Fred Hoiberg, Cael Sanderson, left his alma mater for Penn State and built them into the best wrestling school in America, meanwhile ISU has toiled in mediocrity since he left.

The Friday pitcher against K-State was Piche. He's normally a closer, but he has been struggling this season, so they experimented with him at starter. Needless to say, the experiment didn't work out so well.

5, 0, 3, 3, 2, 1, 4 Errors in each of the last 7 games. Wins in bold.

I bet we end up finishing somewhere around .500 in conference and get a ncaa bid. Our hitters and sucking at the plate and in the field, but have proven over time they can hit. Losing those 3 pitchers to TJ should take time to figure out and the bullpen will sort itself out soon enough.

Blair legging out a 2 RBI infield single is the single most improbable way to win a game. He was clearly out...will take, tho.
Hopefully that is the type of play that sparks a turnaround to the season. We have 22 wins with 19 games left. Probably need to go at least 12-7 to make the tourney...

K-State fans, fill the stadium to watch a team who doesn't even want to be out there.It's his fault. He brought attention to the program last year and made us realize that we had a baseball team. He should have kept sucking under the radar.
Nice work . . . Brad.

They are statistically eliminated from the B12 tournament, so probably zero.
I didn't think that there would be a plausible situation where I would think that Brad Hill needed to be fired after this season. I was wrong. I'm not saying he should definitely be fired, but if the feeling around the complex is that he's the reason for what happened this season, then there needs to be a serious conversation.

I don't disagree. However, we lost three pitchers before the season began. If Brad didn't effectively communicate the implicatons of that fact to the players, and they didn't respond to the fact that they weren't the same team as last year, maybe that is on Brad. Currie needs to find that out. And respond appropriately.
Also it seems like we aren't getting plunked nearly as much. :frown:

I'd say with this total dumpster fire, a strident review of the trajectory of the program is in order. The game tracker read like K-State was throwing batting practice from about the 3rd or 4th inning on.
This goes way beyond some injuries.
New contact worth nearly $1.8 million dollars (base), $275k in retention bonuses, a $65K year over year base increase, and Hill puts that big steamer out there, while K-State will break its single season attendance record? Ouch
If there's a fireable standard one season after winning a conference title then I'd say Brad pretty much set it this year.

He would probably want a better job than us, but if none is available he might come here. He's in conference USA for crying out loud.
MaVorhis makes it sound like Landon Busch is leaving too. Did our pitching staff get Brad'd?

The college baseball post season is just amazing, damn catz.It's gotten a lot better. especially with the addition of espnu.
So when Currie has his end of season one-on-one with Brad, do you think he'll have like a big LED John Currie Trend-O-Meter in the room?
Watching these regional games is depressing. I like what we have coming back next year but after this season I have little hope.

Pro-tip: We're going to be just as bad, if not worse, next year.

So, the Trend-O-Meter is going to look even worse after next year?
It will help not having ridiculous expectations next year. Unless there are people leaving we haven't heard about, we return everyone besides Kivett, DeBord, and Matthys.

Santigate and Moore are graduating. Landon Busch might also be seeking a transfer. Our entire infield regressed, we don't have an established outfield and our pitching staff sucks.
So wait maybe I missed this but is Mavhoris actually coming back next year or what?

Santigate will be replaceable. I think Yagi will fill in fine at 3rd next year. We will have some pitchers back like Wivinis, Nate Williams, and McFadden who sat out this year with injuries. I think our defense will look something like this:
C: DeVinny
1st: Conlon
2nd: Miles
SS: Fischer
3B: Yagi
DH: Stover
LF: Dalrymple
CF: Brown
RF: Meyer
We have a lot of options for our starting pitching. I would guess MaVorhis, Wivinis, and Griep will be our weekend starters.
Taylor Anderson will play 3b next year
We need some bombers, you guys.
Man. Around this time last year we were watching the bat katz beat WSU by like 500 runs. :frown:
So wait maybe I missed this but is Mavhoris actually coming back next year or what?
Matthys is gone. MaVorhis is staying. Heard grumblins about Buschy, but it's been quiet for a while.

According to his twitter, he is transferring to South Dakota St.
Divinni
Mitch Meyer has great power and probably the most raw talent of our returning players. Divinni and Stover look like they could mash as well.

Watching Dalrymple and Miles bat hurts my eyes.
Batcats mumped if what I heard today is true...might see the worst Brad'ed of all time!
Stover, DeVinny, Meyer, Busch, Landon, Bee, and some others I couldn't believe how many it sounded like were gone.

Meyer can't leave, or he's out of eligibility. That alone makes me think you don't know what you are talking about.

Why would he do that? Wouldn't that hurt his draft stock next year?
Brad is #bid'ing himselfMan! The backlash I got at the beginning of the season when I said he was "overrated" is quite comical now. :lol:
Did DeVinny transfer? Bring on the Cats blog says he did but I can't find anything on it.

We are going to be terrible.
Supposed to be a lot of good freshmen, right? Can we make the tournament, MH?Brad did his best to clean-house of the non five-hearts. We're supposed to be vastly improved, but reaching a regional would probably be overacheiving, considering the turnover and lack of experience.

Really? Cause no one gave a crap about this team until they started serving beer and made 1 run in Hill's tenure. Just saying. How many games did you go to before the run and the beer? :dunno:what kind of a fan are you? your downfall has been really sad. maybe take a break
Maybe lighten up? This thread started in 2013. This blog has been around since 2010. I was just merely mentioning how baseball is an after thought based on the big boy sports. Sheesh. "My downfall" :lol: wtf...

interested to see how the flat seams really do affect the ball
gonna be awhile before that even matters other than in places like cali, its cold as eff(for their normal temps) in the south right nowinterested to see how the flat seams really do affect the ball
it should help scoring, cause science.. with maybe a few more dinger derbys than we've seen recently, but with how much scoring has been down over the last few years, i'll want to see it first.
wacky we went to the tournament 3 straight years from 09-11. have been very good minus last year, of course there is a following, but to ask if it is the least favorite sport is just plain rough ridin' stupid. how many rowing or equestrian events have you been to?Well, I use to hook up with a rower freshman year, so three. :gocho:
Hey man, you asked me a question and I was just answering it for you. Relax, it's Friday.really? this all started when you asked if ksu baseball was the least liked sport in a thread thats 172 pages long. you can do what you want but (and im sure this is a majority) you would be better off starting a "random thoughts that come into wackys head"thread than derailing all of the good ones

How did my guy yagi end up doing?
I call Yagi "for my guy". That's a sweet ass name.Anyone brought one of these bad boys to the game? If not I call dibs.
Bee is my guy (even tho they're really all my guys).
FSD, DeVinny got Hill'd. He went back to Texas.
Yagi, got married this summer. He and his wife are adorable.
Max Brown might be my favorite personality on the team.
Wacky, don't troll the thread I moderate please.
:ksu: Very rare for a 3rd baseman to be a lead off guy. Will take!I think it has more to do with the lack of other options. I thought he was a SS/2nd at JUCO.
I know it's a long list but does someone know everyone who got Hill'd? I don't feel like digging through this thread. Although it will probably make me sad.Devinny, stover, landon, matthys, fromson are who i can think of off the top of my head.

Floyd already has a nickname, Pretty Boy Floyd. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pretty_Boy_Floyd

hey skinben, a few of our guys got plunked today!
Walk offs are fun. :excited:
So is Griep the real deal or what? A great start to the season for him.
I know it's early but I think we should be a decent team this year. Not conference championship contenders but I could see us challenging for a regional berth.
An occasional record update would be great. If I have to go to a different site, that's too much work. I'm already on gE, and I'm gonna read this thread so I am prepared for our cws birth.

Looking at the stats, we have an anemic hitting team.
But, it appears that Hill's going to be able to play the "we're young" card for at least another year if not two.
The Wiki page on kstate baseball is pretty fascinating. We basically didn't even have a program until Hill got here. Clark probably deserves some credit for getting a stadium built, but never won crap. Hill is the only reason anyone even cares

I think a lot of people have forgotten we didn't even have a stadium 15 years ago. Like, just bleachers and a field.
Hill got the team to 4 or 5 ncaas (from zero ever), a play at the plate from the cws and won the big 12.
He won multiple national championships at cmsu. It would be Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) to want him to go at this juncture. 2 more years of crap first.

While I understand excuses only go so far, the bat cats actually have some legitimate ones. Last season we were expected to finish as one of the top teams in the big 12 and we were overwhelmed with injuries. This season we lost basically everything from the previous season and replaced many with jr college talent. Recruiting is making a comeback with a pretty strong 2015 class signed and a 2016 class that is coming along nicely. The cats will be back.
This would be an excellent argument if we were showing signs of improvement. Two seasons of very sharp decline kinda invalidates the historical stuff. He's backsliding after he overcame the other stuff. I don't know how that can be used as an explanation at this point.

What a ridiculous post you sound like a GPC oscar apologist grasping at straws. JFC, we're going to finish in last place in consecutive years behind KU and West Virginia. That northern school crap is a stale excuse. These last two seasons have been embarrassingly bad. We're having Mike Clarky type seasons and we should be beyond that. Everyone was perfectly happy when we were finishing 4th, 5th, 6th in the conference and getting into the NCAA tournament. Expectations? Let's start with not being a laughingstock and doormat

What a ridiculous post you sound like a GPC oscar apologist grasping at straws. JFC, we're going to finish in last place in consecutive years behind KU and West Virginia. That northern school crap is a stale excuse. These last two seasons have been embarrassingly bad. We're having Mike Clarky type seasons and we should be beyond that. Everyone was perfectly happy when we were finishing 4th, 5th, 6th in the conference and getting into the NCAA tournament. Expectations? Let's start with not being a laughingstock and doormat
You don't really know how baseball works, do you? Leave this thread and don't every talk baseball again.

Interesting timing, let's talk again later. One of us has had no problem admitting when they've been wrong, I'm pretty sure I won't be wrong here either.
That was a pretty nice comeback from down 4-0. Gene Stephenson must be rolling over in his grave.
Non baseball fans commenting amount baseball are the absolute worst. Augie Garido would have been fired at k-state if some of you jack offs had their way. Good grief, just so stupid. Way to write off the entire season in the first week of April you dolts.

Looks like the Cats' great comeback extra-innings win tonight kind of got lost in the shuffle.Brad is in his 12th season. IMO that's pretty long term :dunno:
That said, I don't think Brad is the long term solution, especially after the defections immediately following the conference championship season, last season's miserable performance, and the fact we'll likely finish in or near the conference cellar this season.

The Cats have 19 games left, and 12 of those are against teams that are at least 5 games below .500.

TownieCat isn't sunshine pumping. This team could make a regional (Brad still needs ousted if we can find a better replacement).

If they could have something like a 12-7 or 13-6 finish plus a win in the B12 Tourney they'll be on the bubble. I'm not sure if RPI carries the same weight in baseball as it does in basketball, but the Cats are currently 57th. http://www.ncaa.com/rankings/baseball/d1/rpi (http://www.ncaa.com/rankings/baseball/d1/rpi)

I'm the expert you dweeb. Anyone who wants Brad fired at this juncture is a short-sighted idiot without a brain or the patience for baseball. Those people are almost certainly fair weather, t-shirt fans, and they are awful and should not be permitted to participate in any discussion.
Traject-O-Meter with a slight twinge towards the positive.
As we get this weekend’s Texas Tech series at Tointon Stadium underway, let’s first congratulate Coach Hill and our baseball team on not only a dramatic comeback walk-off win in extra innings over Wichita State on Tuesday night but also for last weekend’s series win over No. 2 TCU. I am proud of our coaches, staff and student-athletes for continuing to work hard every day, and the progress being made has been fun to watch. Let’s keep it going this weekend against the 19th-ranked Red Raiders!
Looks like another dip in the Traject-O-Meter
It's gonna be a salty battle to stay out of last place.

no, that was a serious question. since it seems you should have some good examples of how it should be, coming from a former baseball player and all.
If your mood about a season or team changes on a series by series basis, baseball probably isn't for you. If you're one of those weirdos who only likes baseball for the box score, baseball really isn't for you. If you are unwilling to recognize how tenuous a season can be when you lose your best starting pitchers, you probably only like baseball because cotton candy.

So, am I a bad fan because I don't like the fact that it's now two years in a row with not making the NCAA tourney and two straight bottom or near bottom Big 12 finishes?
Is it bad to have some expectations or should I just take the tucknation tact of just being happy to see K-State in a major conference?

You should probably be somewhere in between.
Take solace in the fact that the same retards who wanted Dayton and Ned fired last year are the same retards who want Brad fired this year.
Last year we basically lost our entire starting pitching staff to injury. It happens.
This year we were rebuilding on offense and had mild injury woes to the pitchers. I think we'll be pretty good next year and back in the ncaas. The team got better as the year progressed.
Lol, at the notion of "finishing near the bottom". There were 2 really good teams and the other seven were all bunched together. We were as many games from third as we were from last.

Future Kansas State Pitcher was named best player in Arkansas. I think the 220 is a little off, I believe he is closer to the 260-270 range.
Arkansas
K. Ford, Bentonville, 6-5, 220, Pitcher
A four-star quarterback prospect after leading Bentonville to a state championship as a sophomore, Ford is also the top baseball prospect in the state. The Kansas State commit also led Bentonville to a Class 7A baseball championship last year, earning MVP honors for the championship game.

couldn't finish out a game against a good opponent? that's your #kstate #family !!
Another nice win today. Six in a row. :)I am too lazy to look it up right now. What is the weekend schedule? I would like to make a game or two.

2 straight to Western Carolina
Currie is going to re up brads contract and pretend he thought the masses wanted to bring back Brad hill for 4 more years.
Did Currie hire Brad? If he didn't you can bet your ass he will fire him after this season.
Yes and no local talent

They rough ridin' suck. Time to get into track or something guys. I can't believe Brad Hill has made it 13 years with one decent year.
Lost twice yesterday.Two (2) games in one day?!?!
i say we just fold it up for good. Put the money into women's soccer.
Beat Nebraska today. Seems good :dunno:
Brad is showing oscar what being really bad looks like.Is Oscar paying Brad to look bad? Bad Bradding By Brruce?
Took the series today!I seriously don't know the record and probably could look it up, but are they doing anything at all in conference play?
Do we feel some obligation to play river trash Iowa because river flood Iowa can't afford baseball?
“It’s a possibility for anybody if you go in and play well,” Hill said. “We will probably have to play extremely well and hope we catch some teams when they are not playing their best. But if we score some runs we can give ourselves a chance.”
Just a measly 4 years ago we as K-State fans probably spent the longest time paying attention to K-State sports during sports year (in this case '12-'13) we ever have. Watching the bat cats on ESPN and/or listening on the streaming app while mobile. Conference titles, post season play.It doesn't take a 2008 KU year for me to stay focused on K-State sports, 'Dax. You should to learn to love life during the peaks and valleys.
No we suffer through bowl game routs, no basketball postseason and needing a "Miracle on Grass", but golly, look at that new video board, #family, world class student athlete experience, charitable involvement, doing it the right way . . . :jerk:

I've been calling for Brad Hill's head for years. Apparently one good year gives him a lifetime contract in non-revenue sports. So sad. Also, i've said this before, but my HS coach (scout for the cardinals now) said we're going to be dynamite for the next 4 years, because of the recruiting class we have coming in. Brad is practically oscar.

Yeah, apparently we hired an assistant in the last couple of years that's the BITB when it comes to recruiting and it's already showing with some of the classes we have coming in. -Via scout/hs coach of mine. Can't remember the coaches name.So does this mean we don't have to fire Brad just yet?

They are going to be really good in two years. They just got one of the games best recruiters back in Andy Sawyers. He is the one who brought in Kivett/kings/conlon/Marshall. The guys that put you on the map. They aren't a good club this year. Too young.

Yea this is a big deal, assuming there is actually going to be talent here to coach.
Watching TCU-ATM last night the announcers were lamenting lack of seeding in baseball tournament. Said the baseball tournament was second most profitable tournament the NCAA hosts so it should not be due to budget.

NCAA tourney baseball is a lot of fun. Would truly enjoy if the Cats could be around for it more often.
Unfortunately, they maybe our best shot at making a tourney next year. #brucessucksNCAA tourney baseball is a lot of fun. Would truly enjoy if the Cats could be around for it more often.
Would be nice, wouldn't it
Any national championship that is played on a Thursday afternoon is pretty laughable imo..

It is so sexy. Hope they do Phase II (gimmie) and Phase III (big deal) ASAP. The Women's soccer stade hopefully gets done in the following year. PHase V and VI are nice but not must haves, but will make TFS, along with Women's Soccer, BSFS a great facilities combo. The Bram can come too if Phase V of BSFS/south stadium upgrades the crap out of the concourse/legends room (like it should). Rowing at least has a nice building.
Anyone know how we look/rank for track and field? Any need to upgrade there?
Games this weekend.
Sounds like about every publication has these Cats around 8-10th place in the Big 12. Pretty incredible the fall basketball/baseball has encountered since Titletown, really took advantage.
That would be really impressive if we finished 10th considering there is only 9 baseball playing Big 12 members. Why dont we wait and see before we start predicting dooms day?
Guys, I don't follow the Cats in baseball. But, Hill has had 5 losing records out of the last 6 years. That's not good, but that is awful.......Hot Seat?? :dunno:
Also, our pitcher just got ejected after ump felt up his arm
Cats, man.
thanks frank
how do baseball players always have names that make you say "yup, baseball player"?
So does Brad have this thing turned back around?

Cats drop game to previously 1 win Omaha.
Lots of stuff to get to on this. Senior starter Colton Kalmus continues to struggle, he has very little command of his off speed stuff and can basically only throw a fastball with any consistency. Not only that but he also committed 3 errors tonight, thats actually pretty tough to do as a pitcher who lasted only 3 innings.
Kalmus took the loss tonight. Im hoping when Bryce Ward and Hudson Treu return from injury we will see less of Kalmus. I hate to beat up on the kid but he is a fifth year player, through 11 2/3 innings this season he has given up 12 hits and 13 walks with a 8.49 ERA. The bullpen did pitch well and shut down Omaha for the most part but the damage had already been done.
Kalmus is not alone in blame for this one either, the Kstate offense continues to struggle. There was definetly improvement from the Riverside series that could also be contributed to the lower level opponent that was faced. Cats struck the ball well at times but credit Omaha's defense for making big plays, especially a diving catch that likely prevented us from having runners on second and third with no outs in the 8th. Cam Thompson who came into the game batting over .400 was 0 for 5 and Quinton Crandall another one of our top bats was also hitless.
By far the worse loss of the season. Cats better rebound quickly or the hot start to the season will be wasted. My only hope is that some of the lackluster effort the last 4 games was contributed to the cold weather and the forecast warms up with Iowa coming into town for the weekend series.

Conference play to date:
Team Pitching-Last (we knew that was likely going to be the case with injuries, but the pitching was pretty solid in the ku Series)
Team Fielding %- .968 for 8th place. Tied with Baylor % wise but they have almost double the number of PO's to date.

Yes, we lost. Our bats have been horrid, but let us at least appreciate the performance of the pitching staff. They shutout the #3 team in the country for 10 innings.

Next up, we came in 7th at the Big 12 Conference Track Meet, but how about those high jumpers!
First 2 games of the first 2 B12 series and zero runs scored.
I predict a clubhouse brawl.
Good for him, that's pretty cool.eff your "might" this team will be a blast to watch and I know a few of us said it last year that this team would be very good.
9-2 start. Might be a fun team to follow this year.
Yeah I apologize for that, we aren't very good after all

Actually the bright spots of the team have been freshman. Will Brennan and Cam Thompson are the only players on the team hitting over .300 and have been our starting left fielder and center fielders since opening day. Catcher Conner Rule has struggled at the plate but has played a lot and has been doing great work behind the plate.
Our pitching has been pretty strong all season and the freshmen are a big part of that. Tyler Eckberg has a sub 2 era and has been a staple out of the bullpen. Jared Marloff has surpassed expectations and has been extremely reliable out of the pen. Freshman Kasey Ford has the highest pro potential on the team, already hitting 96 mph in multiple games this season and has done solid work. Caleb Littlejim got roughed up against Nebraska but has also had some quality outings for the Cats.
Outside pitchers Jordan Floyd and Parker Rigger the senior class, that was supposed to be the strength of this team, has been a disappointment.
So recruitment isn't necessarily the issue.
I thought we were going to be good

Damn that's impressive. We have him locked up right?
Did we just weasal into the big12 tourney?
Not a good look. That early conference swoon where we couldn't score a run ruined a decent end of the season.
On a positive note for the conference, we have 6 teams ranked 23 or higher by rpi. TTECH and TCU are certain to be top 8 seeds.
Well, I'd say it's NCAA or bust for Brad Hill next season.
The program trajectory is decidedly negative.
Former K-State catcher Rob Vaughn has been named the head baseball coach for Maryland. At 29 he is one of if not the youngest head coaches of a power 5 program in the country.
I never said Hill's job is safe in fact I said how important it was for him to win games this season. I never said that we were going to win a ton of games this year. IDK what you believe in his recruiting rankings but K-State's recruiting is in similarly line in of that of Kansas, northern schools are at a natural disadvantage and it is difficult for them to compete in a Texas based league. Fan support has never been terrific as well. The real problem is that we had a mass exitus from the classes of 2014 and 2015, in programs such as Kansas State you have to rely on upperclassman to compete, another problem is that kids these days want immediate playing time and if they don't get it they will leave. JUCO baseball is not as taboo JUCO Football or Basketball and many kids took off. Their is not a single kid on the team from the class of 2014 and only two from the class of 2015.

Not many good things said about Hill in another forum. Seems at times he’s not at practice often, has weird rules on conditioning. Just a real sinking ship feel.

It's because he's been there too long and has had only one succesful season. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kansas_State_Wildcats_baseballWacks, I know if you had oscar coach here his whole rough ridin life then he probs would be all time in basketball.
K-State Baseball History is so laughable, it's not even funny anymore. He's had only two conference winning records since he's been here.

read the thread ding dong. We are getting some huge stud from Maryland
Maryland is in the Big 10 now and I guess I disagree with you. That kid was diehard Emaw back in the day. He's also from Texas, which is like the biggest recruiting bed for HS baseball players other than Cali and Florida.oh ya big 10 not acc, still haven’t gotten used to them leaving the acc

Maryland's record thus far (16-20, 3-5 Big Ten) :Woot:
Yeah, it's his first season. Dude made his way up super quick. His recruiting was a big reason for their previous success.I'll coach and recruit for cheap, just give me free tuition and a car. I'll be the best damned baseball recruiter EMAW has ever had.
I know Brad, I like Brad but I think we all can agree its time for new blood because it hasnt been working. While I confidently say that I watch more Kstate baseball than anyone else on this blog and I can say this season was going to be a struggle no matter who our coach was because of the age of our team and transfers the past few seasons and injuries to the pitching staff (our ace pitcher has been out amongst some of our top relievers), but we havent played well since 2013.
I have respect for Brad and he has led us to the most successful run in school history but looking ahead at potential names that could be looked at, here is who i think we could target.
Rob Vaughn, former Kstate catcher current Maryland HC. He is the youngest HC of all power 5 schools in his first year at Maryland. Maryland has struggled and were predicted to finish as one of the top teams in the big 10 in the preseason but are currently close to the bottom. Young, strong recruiter, from Texas. HC experience though limited.
Mitch Gaspard, current associate HC at KSU, former HC at Alabama and Northwestern State. Had some good years at Bama but resigned under pressure after the 2016 season also did well at Northwestern State is well liked by the current players and would be a seamless transition.
Andy Sawyers, current HC at Southeast Missouri State 2nd season, was a Kstate assistant two seperate times, played college ball at Nebraska. Good recruiter. Finished his first season at semo over .500 and his team struggled early but has played well in conference play.
Mike Clement, current assistant coach at Ole Miss, assistant at Kstate during big 12 title year that set all kinds of batting records. Never been a HC, was also an assistant at A&M, originally from Texas.
Those are the coaches with Kstate ties that will be considered, being that this will be Gene Taylors first hire at Kstate idk how important HC experience or ties to Kstate are to him. I think it is important to get someone who understands the unique challenges that K-State faces in the Big 12 conference. KU and WVU are the only other schools that face similar difficulties in the conference. KU could also be in the market for HC at the end of the season.
Texas will F us up
He's not a troll, 09emaw. He's just not laying in bed with the coach who's 3-18 in conference like you are.

We already played and took the series from Texas, but I'm glad such invested fans such as yourself knows what is best for the program going forward.
To be clear I also feel that Brad should be replaced, I just cant stand trolls who don't know what they are talking about.
We're going to sweep ku this weekend, then make the Big 12 tournament where we'll lose three games by a combined score of 28-2.

Thanks Brad Hill for building the momentum. It was tough to watch unravel, but he did a great job taking over a program in rough shape.
This maybe an interesting insight into Gene's coaching search philosophy... does he pluck from NDSU, go after an established head coach at a lesser university, interview top assistants, gamble on an unknown, look to someone with K-State ties, etc.?
Hmm...

You have to have minor sports. So invest in the one's that provide the greatest possibility for visibility and marketing.
Last years CWS avg 1.2 million viewers per game, with the championship series at 1.9 mil per game, that almost tops the women's FF.

Exactly. If football is the front porch of the school, which I think was a Snyder or weefs line, then men’s basketball is the back door and baseball is the walkout basement door where Alex sneaks in to hook up with the daughter.

It's not that he's a shittier manager, it's that the program is harder to recruit to.

It's an absolutely terrible hire. Maybe he'll win some, and I really hope he does, but I doubt it.”Terrible hire”. Lol
Baseball these days is so much about recruiting and locking down close metro areas. KC is becoming a small baseball factory. If he can do that there, he'll be alright. I just expected a younger guy that would be more capable of bringing in the guys the program needs. Managing is about the 49th thing on the list he needs to do well to succeed here.
Doing things the K-State way being around #125.

at least he’s not an assistant coach like the guy at maryland was a year agoOh, you mean the the youngest P5 coach out there with K-State ties? Yeah, he's not an exception at all.
I find it odd that OU let him go after taking them to a regional last year and finishing 2nd in the conference.
Brad Hill had way more upside when he was hired than this guy. He won a NC and 9 straight conference championships. Yeah, it was D2....so what? Brad Hill was not a 2. That’s just wrong.lol. K.

Take pics, please. I know they removed a lot of outfield trees, which sucks.
It really is a big mess over there. They already did all of the outfield wall work and the third base line wall rebuild. Just installed new LED field lights and Stadium lights. Tested em last night and they looked amazeballs :excited:
I’m curious what the inside of the wall down the lines is. The outside is limestone which seems like it would destroy any ball hit foul down the lines.
There is currently no soccer stands at all. They took the temp ones down and haven’t really started the new one yet it looks like.
could have something to do with us sucking at baseball, but i'll defer to the cleats on the ground in manhattan
I am going to enjoy getting deep into some obscure stats with wacks this year.
One I have really been keeping an eye on lately (and some geeks dispute its relevance) is SBSAPJ (sucked big sack at prior job)
I can tell you using that stat our new coach is a 100.213 - which is really bad
are we tanking to get the #1 draft pick?
I agree we hired a coach with a mediocre past record, but anyone who thinks they can turnover a baseball program in a year, is an absolute rube. Especially after what he took over. We won’t know what he’s about until year 3. Most baseball guys know this. Most rubes don’t.
It's been 6 years, but yeah, he's taking over a bunch of scrubs.

Whatever was left over for him to coach his first season hasn't been successful to say the least. I'm more interested in how he recruits.
why'd we fire the coach if it was the players' fault?Because he was bringing in the shitty talent. :dunno: 5 to 6 years ago we had guys getting drafted and had names up for big 12 player of the week, etc. Being a coach for a baseball team is the most lol thing ever. They don't do much. The biggest part of their success is if they can recruit. You can tell a lot about a baseball team based off their record and what type of talent they have their.

Man, I really got in your head the other day. Sad. :cry:
Even completely setting aside Hill's D2 success, he achieved more at K-State than Hughes did in his 19 years at BC, Va Tech and a relative historical baseball power in Oklahoma. Hughes never won a conference title, never made a super regional and made 3 NCAAs in 19 years (Hill made 4 NCAAs, 1 Super and won a conference title in in 15 years).Holy crap, are you a family member? The new coach finished top 4 at like 4 power 5 conference schools during his time there during conference play. Hill was gifted a tenure contract for sucking most of his life because we always have had AD’s who could give two effs for the sport. I hope you’re kidding, Brad.
We can say Hill was done, lost the team, couldn't recruit anymore, etc. and that's fine. But we basically took out the trash and brought in a bigger bag of trash.
Brad Hill’s record in Big 12 play: 138–230–3
Brad Hill’s record in Big 12 play: 138–230–3
And Hughes was .375 in conference play at VA Tech and under .500 at OU (where he made NCAAs one time in 4 years after taking over for a program that had made it 9 of the past 10 years).
Hill needed to go - there's no question. The issue is our small timey AD replaced him with an equally mediocre coach.
Went to Austin this past weekend, and wife wanted to go to the Blanton Museum of Art on UT campus :Yuck:
Talked her into going by herself, I drifted over to the UT/KSU baseball game.. go there bottom of 2nd inning. Guy outside the stadium asked me if I wanted to buy tickets, asked him what he had. He sold me front row seat behind home plate :thumbsup:
Turned out I was sitting in a group of parents of UT players....my applause for the 'Cats was pretty isolated and lonely. A UT guy, "Adam" came down and started leading cheers for UT next to me, so I introduced myself as a KSU grad class of ____. We got along great. Sucked down a couple of 16 oz Shiner Bocks :drool:, and watched the 'Cats win a 2-0 shutout on a 71 degree sunny day.
The sign of a good coach is one to get a bunch of misfits to win midway through their first year after starting so shitty because lack of talent that the previous coach left. Egg on ‘stones super stupid negative face. Sad.Agreed re: Stones's egg face. Pathetic!
Wow! Tied for 7th our of 9 in the conference! Banner time!
Looked like a crap ton of no shows for "sold out" games, and they really blew a great chance and starting pitching performance yesterday.

yeah, there is really no way to know what this guy's winning % would look like in this conference.
If he gets us to the big 12 tournament, I'll take it for his first year.
To me, it's hard to compare the hire. I just have no idea what our actual coaching options were. I would have thrown the kitchen sink at Rob Vaughn. An up and comer cat, who's already the head coach at Maryland.

SE: 13 Years After Managing Through Tragedy, Hughes Offers Perspective on Lost Season
March 25, 2020
By: Austin Siegel
K-State head baseball coach Pete Hughes can remember the last time the world stopped like this, because four days later, the world came to his baseball field.
"Virginia Tech, at that time, was the largest tragedy in the nation's history," Hughes said. "We were trying to bring a community back to normal and the score was completely insignificant."
After 32 people were killed in a school shooting at Virginia Tech, still the worst in American history, Hughes managed the Hokies in the first sporting event of any kind on campus following the tragedy in 2007.

I feel like this is a good win, but I'm only saying that because we played Oregon St. in the playoffs one time a long time ago.

After his summer ball performance, he's also a preseaon top 10 college baseball draft prospect. And, going out on a limb and saying that's the first time that's ever happend at k-state.I can't remember any getting that kind of pub. I think Carson Seymour is set as the Saturday guy and some think he's a top 150 prospect (mlb.com at least)
We might have one team worth cheering for!Yep!
Are they going to let us into the stadium so we can get completely canned on 2 bits and heckle the opposing team?Why yes, yes they are
Imagine me and Greg just destroying micros in the sun and absolutely getting in the face of the Texas players as we run rule themTell me when!!!
Is this on TV somewhere?Flosports unfortunately

college baseball has to be the weirdest of all college sports, no?Yes. Especially with their scholarship situation.

Does baseball still follow the rule if you sign with a college out of high school it's a 3 year commitment before you're eligible for MLB draft again?

It's not quite as bad, but track is pretty silly as well. They get 12.6 scholarships for rosters that are usually 30-40 deep. But, they can go pro whenever they want.My bro did both Cross Country and track in college, to enhance his scholarship. He's lucky he was distance.

Predicting hires to fail in a game you know zero about is not being right. You’re just throwing crap against the wall because you dislike gene and company. You’re not playing Nostradamus here, you’re just bitter. It takes zero ability to forecast a losing program to keep losing, because the resume you looked at once, doesn’t meet your fancy, with having zero knowledge of what it takes to be successful in college baseball.Dugstone is probably hissing in a corner somewhere right now.

So to be clear here the only coach of a major men's program at your alma mater you've liked the last approximately 18 years is 6 years of two basketball coaches and like 3 years of a football coach? :sdeek: I don't know that I'd willingly continue to follow something I despise so much.

I’ve been on vacay, but doubt it. Our ace is like the 1st projected 1st rounder in the program’s history. Unless he was on short rest and told to start a few innings?Ace was pitching, i was at the game
That blows. When was his last start? Do you know? If we’re shortening to a 4 man rotation because we’re sucking, then that is on the coach.His last start was a week ago against okie state
They play a 3-game series for a reason (flukey stuff can happen in 1 game). Let's bounce back this evening
some incredibly good looking poster predicted this exact scenario
‘Stone, would you say this club is growing under Hughes or nah?
Was at the game tonight. I don't follow college baseball at all but their starter was throwing pitches in the 60's before they pulled him. I have a nephew that has his eye on college ball that's in high school throwing mid-eighties. I like his chances if APB's pitcher is the norm.It's not the norm. Are you sure he wasn't a junk ball pitcher?

Arkansas Pine-Bluff is an HCBU, it's possible that pitcher wasn't even on scholarship, and I can confidently say that if he does have a scholarship it isn't anything close to a full one.Lotta white dudes on that team

I'm sure MiR knew this (because he's a minor sports encyclopedia) but this is interesting
https://www.nytimes.com/2019/05/13/sports/baseball/hbcu-baseball.html
what allows one person the ability to throw the ball 100 mph, and the next guy only 60 mph?
it’s not arm muscle. is it all technique? if so, why aren’t there a billion arm throw technique people churning out 100 mph pitchers 24/7?
Big series starts today. Could really move the needle.
wicks not being an ace again :frown:His draft stock is hurting. Hope his arm is ok.
I also don't understand what Texas was upset about there. Baseball "brawls" are usually pretty dumb.pride
Most of them involve intentionally throwing a ball 90+ at someone’s ribs. Pretty clear cut there.Most of them involve a bunch of posturing and punches are rarely thrown. It's a lot of spectacle. Let the pitcher/hitter duke it out like they do in hockey if it's going to be an actual part of the game.

Cats are 24-16! :love: :eek:
I'm looking for progress here. I'm hoping they can get hot by the time the Big 12 tourney rolls around. Beating bad teams is what decent teams do. It's also what our shitty past teams wouldn't do.Cats are 24-16! :love: :eek:
They're a decent team. But, the 15 wins against some of the worst teams in the country might be what keeps them out of the tourney.
I think there's a chance for a bid if we can get something close to this to end the season:
Texas Southern - 3-0 (they are terrible)
at Baylor - 1-2
at KU - 2-1
TCU - 1-2
Big 12 - 2-2
That would put us at 33-23 overall and 10-14 in Big 12 (probably 5th or 6th). Must avoid sweeps at Baylor vs. TCU.

Both of them now have to win their series.
well both are off to a good start, both WVU and KU won tonight. Although with OU losing to Baylor that drops them into a tie w/ us, and since we have the head to head then I think that puts us ahead of OU.
Did not realize that former batcat Nick Martini made it to the show but he plays for the Cubs, so, that’s neat
Pete Hughes on the bench for 2 innings.
Cats take 2 of 3 vs a ranked team, and made a run to take all 3.
Hmm . .
So is it a three game series or just today's game that decides if they move on?Double elimination tournament. Here's the bracket.
wicks rolling now :driving:Yes! Does he go in the 7th? Already at 113 pitches.
we won?handily!

*looks like Phillips, if i saw the lineup correct.
If I was the selection committee, I think I would be interested in a team that has hit the 3rd most home runs in college baseball and has also shown the ability to run roughshod on top 10 teams...I dunno. Feels like they’ve made a compelling case over the last few weeksI think having a 1st round pitcher is a nice selling point as well.

will any of these be televised on ESPN+? One of the few reasons i kept the sub was in the hopes i'd be able to catch more batcats this seaz due in large part to GregoryKSU getting me all horned up for one of the greatest teams OAT since like 2012 or w/e
What should our level of concern be that we lost 80% of our pitching and about 60% of our offensive production last year?I’m confident that the weekend rotation is solid. It will be even better when Wentworth gets back to full strength. Scouts have ton’s of interest in Ruebeck and Wentworth. He is coming off of an elbow injury though.
I'm not too concerned about our bats, but the pitching... we're basically bringing back one starter and then nearly everyone else is new. To be fair, many of the newcomers are transfers from better programs. But, they are also a batch of transfers who didn't play much at all at their previous schools.
Anyone with more in-depth knowledge - should we feel good about the pitching staff?

Thanks for sharing the stream. That bs balk call on Nieghbors really sent everything into a crap storm.Saw Landry Wideman tonight and he told us that the ump said that neighbors was pitching from the stretch and needed to come set with players on base though he definitely wasn’t pitching from the stretch so the ump called a balk.
That bottom of the 6th was brutal. 3 (maybe more?) two out runs with several chances to get out of the inning. We suck gregWe suck, yes but starting pitching is a very bright spot which is a great foundation to build off of for the remainder of the season. Think we have a pretty good shot at Auburn tomorrow but only time will tell

My kid has a bat that you aren’t supposed to use when it’s less than 65 degrees outside so he has another bat for cold games/BP. Maybe we only have the warm bats?Possibly.

could it be we have the wrong batting gloves?
my hypothesis is that we are not getting the necessary grip on the bat, thus no contact with ball. thoughts?
I need a ruling. When is it too cold for outdoor BP?Can confirm they do live BP inside too
My point being, K-State coaches of the past would have killed for all the 55 degree plus days in the preseason. But apparently (in some circles). 60 degrees is just too darn cold for live BP.

They have a four pack where you can get four GA season tickets for $300. Seems like a ridiculously cheap deal and I’ll probably still get it before their first home game but christ these guys don’t seem very good at baseball so far.Did you see the Tuesday deals?? :sdeek:

Back to the task at hand, Baseball plays Central Connecticut State tomorrow at 2pm then a doubleheader on Sunday. Should be a fun weekend of baseball. Hoping that Blake Adams can pitch a shutout tomorrow and then we see more from the Saturday Sunday starter against a stagnant CCS on Sunday.
Any update on Wentworth’s injury?
Yes. He received a structured settlement as a result. However, he needs cash now.
Wentworth is shut down for the forseeable future.God, I hope so.I will enjoy TF out of good K-State baseball this Spring, I hope it happens.Dax we suck at Volleyball

Quick temp comparo between MHK and Knoxville (current home of No. 1 team in the country)...
Avg. high/low in Feb: MHK (47/21) Knox (53/33)
Avg. high/low in March: MHK (57/30) Knox (61/40)
Avg. high/low in April: MHK (67/42) Knox (71/48)
Avg. high/low in May: MHK (77/54) Knox (79/57)
There are semi-legit excuses the K-State baseball coach could use for sucking (not a fully-funded sport in a low-population state, etc.), but weather isn't one of them.

Not fully funded?
Everybody is up against that.
Everybody is up against that.
Yes, but not everybody plays in a low population state where three D-1 schools are competing for 20ish D1 players every year and, in all likelihood, can't/won't offer them anything other than small partial scholarships because they've got to save their biggest partials for out-of-state athletes.
Schools in large population states have a built-in advantage in the non-fully funded sports because they have loads more in-state players to choose from and they can offer those in-state players partial scholarships to stay home at in-state tuition rates. Whereas, if K-State wanted to offer a kid from Florida, that kid will have to pay out-of-state tuition and a 9/10 scholarship to K-State is probably about the same as a 1/10 scholarship to Florida/Miami/Florida State, etc.
When K-State decided to offer in-state tuition to any student from several states (Texas, Oklahoma, etc.) that certainly helped, but it's still obviously not quite the same. That gap can also be made up with academic scholarships to supplement the partial athletic scholarship, but, again, still not going to be the same.

Miss is a low population state with at least 3 D1 baseball programs. They seem to do alright. Texas is one of the, if not the fastest growing state in the United States, so I am not understanding the "not quite the same", again, there's only 11.7 scholarships, the Texas schools can't get everybody. Oregon is a low population state in the Northeast, and Oregon State has a powerful major corp funded competitor just down the road. Stillwater Oklahoma is, well, Stillwater Oklahoma, they seem to do just fine.
Wins are wins, but we narrowly avoided losing two games at home to an awful Northern Colorado team last night/Tuesday. If Hughes can't find some reliable bullpen help it's going to be a really, really bad Big 12 season - like us and KU duking it out for taking the last spot in the Big 12 tourney with a 5-20 type of record.
Greg you hear that?? Go find us a Rick Vaughn!Rick Vaughn will never come back
That part was mild. She walks up to him in a bar, the next cut is a silhouette of her straightening her dress. Preteen MIR was very disappointed, I wanted to see them yeeks. Other than the language the only even close to racy thing is the cut out of the owner with pasties on.

Some notable things about the team this year i'm seeing/hearing in practice.
Jackson Wentworth is a stud, frankly the best raw pitching prospect we have ever had in the program. Dude is only gonna get better. Has a Mid 90 fastball that smokes anything in it's path. Oh and he is only a freshman :comehere:
German Fajardo is gonna be a part of our setup/closing rotation and we will be closing games out a lot, (This team has already a much better OBP AND OPS+ through fall ball than last years squad did so he won't be saving many!!! :driving:) expect to see some nasty 1-2-3 combos come this spring, three headed monster type stuff.
The Big 12 Tournament will be taking place as of this year at Globe Life Field for the forseeable future, if goEMAW wants to pitch in for a suite I totes would and you should too. BatCat's are gonna be the shining non revenue sport for the next 4 years, happy to have you all here as Hughes will be reaching heights not even Dave Baker and Earl Woods dreamed of...
Hughes is building a giant, I will be sharing more tidbits throughout winter ball as well as advanced analytics. Have a great day everyone.

First off, Dylan is a bonafide stud. Will go down as one of the best athletes ever at K-State.We haven’t bunted in three games Dax
While I get the injuries are not helping right now. It just means that a team like K-State has got to button down and execute on the little things even more and this team doesn't do that, and Pete Hughes baseball from what I've seen so far does not do that. In addition to their weird timing on pulling pitchers, coupled with their tendency to bunt using some of their best hitters. I know Hughes is one of those "bunting puts pressure on the defense in college baseball" guys, but come on.
I am likely going to have 27 straight innings of K-State baseball on my TV today, as it's green winter down here right now, and I'm not in much of a mood to be outside, even though it's a lovely day.

Why tf did we pull Hassel there?That was baffling. Gets an out against the lead off batter. 67 pitches. Top of order coming up, and they were 0-8 at that point.
Why are we so poor defensively?

Kind of like Roy Williams telling everyone Jim Wooldridge was doing a great job.
Or at the pinnacle of Snyder 1.0, Bill going to the other locker room after K-State destroyed them and telling them to keep their head up, you know, keep sawing wood.
like nubb (when they didn't suck total balls/taints) cheering for the other team that just got dismantled as they leave the field.

Let's not get carried away. They are still only 3-8 in conference. The pitching hasn't been very good in conference really until these last two games. Still a long ways to go.

Suck it for a night, Texas
Outside of Hassall going into meat ball mode, K-State played a good game, no errors, nice relay and tag at the plate, and the bats smacked the Texas ace.

I am going to start calling Hughes potato faceI call him "The Roti Island Snake Necked Turtle"
I'm not sure it's possible for a coach to coax more fundamentally poor play out of his players than Pete Hughes.It’s been something, that’s for sure.
Going extra innings even though this game coulda/shoulda/woulda been won at 3-4 different points.
Runners picked off base, outfielders diving for balls instead of cutting them off, the game-tying runner rounding toward second instead of the dugout and then getting thrown out at first base in the 9th, leaving the bases loaded twice by swinging at awful pitches - if nothing else, we're thorough.

And both of Pete Hughes' last two coaching stops (OU & Va Tech) made it to Supers this year - a place Hughes has never been (nor will he ever go). But, I'm sure firing the pitching coach will fix everything...
One could easily argue there is no accountability for any sport other than football and men's basketball (and women's basketball if you're going to make your players be jesus freaks).
Extending Hughes (and even giving him a raise) is absolutely astounding - especially considering the team that will take the field next yar is BY FAR the least talented team Hughes has had. He's 26-46 in Big 12 play in 3 years and it's probably going to be around 32-64 by the end of the 2023 season.
Is this really anything more than a "we're not going to fire him so we have to extend him so we can recruit" extension?
We kept Brad Hill for 14 years. K-State doesn't GAF about baseball.
Is this really anything more than a "we're not going to fire him so we have to extend him so we can recruit" extension?
no, and imo gene just needs to be honest about the fact that the extension is due to factors that have nothing to do with previous on-field success
how much would it cost to become a "good" baseball program? probably not a lot I bet. I say we do it. Just go for it. WOW!

I worked with the guys everyday. You have to make them think they are the best in order to perform at their best. It sucks yeah but you have to get in a positive mindset. There are so many variables in the college game that can change but coaching needs to be the number one thing that the administration should care about. We also have the least amount of money allocated to the sport in the entire Big 12 and just checked the new Big 12

This is surprising and sad. I've seen schools with sports analytics clubs who you would easily be able to pluck some students from. Perhaps K-State doesn't have much of a Stat department.
Do something about this crap, Gene!
BTW, K-State spent more on baseball last year than KU. Not much more, but still more.
K-State spent $2.67 million on baseball.
OU (for example) spent $4.2 million on baseball.
But I'm also a believer that the budget is what you deserve. If K-State ever hires a baseball coach that does good things, then that budget will go up. With what Gene is paying Pete, K-State would draw plenty of attention from coaches who are much better than Pete.
SO we tried doing this last year and we have contacted the business/stats department to get some students but since there was no money involved it is really hard to get students to help out during games. If you all know some alumni who might be interested in funding the group or helping out we would love the contact.The Analytics team will die this year because of lack of interest/new graduates.

The ERAs of our three primary starters last year in Big 12 play were 5.75, 6.70 and 8.91. So, it's not like we were killing it last year, either.I'm not even bbs'ing when I say this but the best home field advantage in all of College Baseball just on ballpark factors is Tointon Family Stadium. I did a research project on park factors for all parks in the NCAA and we have the best park factor homefield advantage in all of college baseball.
Greg could probably speak to this, but I imagine the splits home v. away were pretty sizable. One hallmark of Pete's teams has been the massive gap between performance at home vs. on the road - like, it's way worse than a typical team. In 2021, when we actually did have a good team, we were 24-7 at home (8-4 in Big 12 and won every home series, which included some vs. ranked teams) and we were 3-12 on the road overall (2-10 in Big 12 play). If that team had won 2-3 more Big 12 road games, they're probably in the tourney.
Yeah, it's mind boggling how bad this team is on the road in conference play, only to be pretty decent at home.It is extraordinarily small, the Yankees Stadium of the midwest we called it.
I know the Texas people were bitching about our small ball park (the actual field not the stadium) last year, saying that HR's at TFS would be long lazy fly balls at DF.
I've never paid much attention to the dimensions, but TFS does seem a bit smallish.

The wind in Manhattan blows out of the south/southeast on a majority of days during baseball season (Thanks to a linear regression I ran with close to 70 years of NWS data last year). The balls get launched because the diamond/homeplate orientation is to the northeast, therefore this makes for some banging afternoons at the ole tointon.
The elevation theory is also very very real in Manhattan. We had a homerun off of a bat speed of 92 mph last year. That is unheard of anywhere else in the country.
If you are a kicker in football or a slugger in baseball Manhattan is the place to be to juice the hell out of those numbers.

I did a research project on park factors for all parks in the NCAA and we have the best park factor homefield advantage in all of college baseball.
Greg could probably speak to this, but I imagine the splits home v. away were pretty sizable. One hallmark of Pete's teams has been the massive gap between performance at home vs. on the road - like, it's way worse than a typical team. In 2021, when we actually did have a good team, we were 24-7 at home (8-4 in Big 12 and won every home series, which included some vs. ranked teams) and we were 3-12 on the road overall (2-10 in Big 12 play). If that team had won 2-3 more Big 12 road games, they're probably in the tourney.
The wind in Manhattan blows out of the south/southeast on a majority of days during baseball season (Thanks to a linear regression I ran with close to 70 years of NWS data last year). The balls get launched because the diamond/homeplate orientation is to the northeast, therefore this makes for some banging afternoons at the ole tointon.
The elevation theory is also very very real in Manhattan. We had a homerun off of a bat speed of 92 mph last year. That is unheard of anywhere else in the country.
If you are a kicker in football or a slugger in baseball Manhattan is the place to be to juice the hell out of those numbers.
I guess I don’t understand why the visiting team wouldn’t be able to enjoy these advantages as well? Or are you saying that the batcats are so familiar with the friendly confines that they know exactly where to aim it? And they know how the ball is going to move? Kind of like how in Oakland if there’s a foul ball keep chasing it bc you have plenty of room? Or like with how wrigley (I think) doesn’t have an upper deck so pop flies will have a goofy change in flight path
Dropped the series at Baylor we suck again

We actually got two quality starts (in the 1st and 3rd games) and the pen handled the first and completely blew it in the third game. Our bats weren't great - 22 hits in three games.
Considering Baylor entered the series as the worst hitting and pitching team in the league - by far in both categories - it's most definitely not a good sign. We're probably going to be fighting it out with them for last place in the league.

Absolutely dreadful 2-1 loss to St. Thomas last night. Shutout until the ninth inning, had second and third with zero outs and couldn't capitalize. Four hits against a team with a 6.97 ERA. They were 1-13 entering the game last night on an 11-game losing streak with their only win of the year against Cal-State Baksersfield (who also stinks). And, for added insult, this is a school that was a non-scholarship D3 program two years ago.
For anyone who doesn't hate themselves, this can be the official jumping off point for paying any attention to the 2023 Bat Cats.
Looking like Jackson Wentworth is the real deal. Glad he is succeeding after having to take last year off.
Only a game and and half out of first place halfway through conference play :horrorsurprise:That Baylor series

Once you get the cheese on your dick, it just continues to get cheesier.
He unfortunately is a year behind with his stuff. Think he will have a stint with Driveline this summer which I think will help him.Looking like Jackson Wentworth is the real deal. Glad he is succeeding after having to take last year off.
I don't think you were, but were you being sarcastic? I totally get coming back from injury, but Wentworth's made it past the fourth inning one time in six starts (Stonehill) and he's at nearly 2.00 WHIP with an ERA over 7 an opp BA of .356. Maybe he'll get there, but he's the weak link among the starters right now (with Fajardo not too far ahead of Wentworth).
After a bad start in his first game of the year against SFA, Boerema has actually pitched well ever since (and that includes giving up only 1 run in 4 IP to LSU). In fact, he's actually given up 1 or 0 runs in every start since SFA (which also includes Baylor and OU) - not too shabby for a D3 transfer.

Unlike a lot of schools it was a pretty good production, and K-State has a pretty good production as well.
With KU you get terrible camera work and mostly solo Brian Hanni whining about stuff.
Well then I guess there's only one thing left do...
Cats take the opener from Tech. Neighbors hit 99, 98, and 97 mph against the final batter.

Pete Hughes sucks and the Big 12 really sucks this year.So we're like, good for us then.
But... considering Hughes was 26-46 in Big 12 play entering this year (.361 win %) and taking into account the ludicrous extension Mean Gene gave him... the fact that we're 4 games over .500 with two series to play is an incredibly welcome surprise.
K-State has had exactly five winning league seasons (1974, 1990, 2009, 2010, 2013) in the last 50 years. I'll be hoping for three rainouts vs. Okie State to ensure we get No. 6.
has a team ranked at the end of the season ever not received an at large bid? Like, if we can hold serve and stay ranked (big if, i realize) then like...?
So you're saying there's a chance...has a team ranked at the end of the season ever not received an at large bid? Like, if we can hold serve and stay ranked (big if, i realize) then like...?
It's college baseball, so that almost certainly happened before the field expanded to 64 in the late 90s and it probably has happened since because there are several polls/rankings and then the NCAA uses RPI.
We play SEMO this weekend (ranked in the 140s in RPI) and Wichita State (No. 86) tomorrow followed by Okie State (No. 20) and TCU (No. 56). I think to have a chance, we have to win the TCU and SEMO series (ideally sweep SEMO) and then win a couple in the Big 12 tourney. If we can pull off the Okie State series win on the road, that would be huge.

:kstategrad:
Setting aside that we increased the odds of us hosting to a whopping 1%, the big news out of this weekend is that we just might have found a No. 3 starter. Yeah, we're 90% done with the regular season, but, hey - better late than never.

He's still a loser who's made the NCAA tourney 3 times in a 25 year coaching career. But, I don't think too many people thought this team would be in NCAA contention, so he deserves credit for that.
As for this year, the high-level differences (in my opinion) are:
-Less bad pitching (we're No. 2 in Big 12 play in ERA despite only having about 5 guys you always feel pretty good about - the rest, not so much; maybe the assistant high school pitching coach we hired in the offseason knows a thing or two)
-Plate discipline (we still strike out a ton - everybody does - but we're 4th in the country in walks, which is important because we're last in the Big 12 in BA)
-Home vs. away (Greg has mentioned our home/away splits have been atrocious in recent years; they're still probably pretty bad, but we're 13-9 away from home this year - last year we were 6-17, 2021 was 3-12, 2019 was 8-17 - if you can just go .500 on the road and then win consistently at home, you'll be in the NCAA conversation every year)
-Big 12 sucks (if this isn't the worst year ever for the league, it's got to be pretty close; by RPI, the Big 12 is third, but by non-conference win %, it's 4th - but the league is far, far, far below both the SEC and the ACC - more than usual)
Stir that all up and here we are...
MUCH MUCH BETTER. 41 Stolen bases through-out the entire season last year through out all 58 games. So far this season we have 101 total bases stolen. So stolen bases are up 140.4%Setting aside that we increased the odds of us hosting to a whopping 1%, the big news out of this weekend is that we just might have found a No. 3 starter.

Series against OSU begins tonight. If we took the series, I'd say we'd be close to a lock for NCAAs (assuming we didn't get swept next week vs. TCU).
But, we haven't taken a series (home or away) from OSU since 2010, so there's that.

Would guess we'll throw Fajardo against KU tomorrow. The bad news is that Fajardo has had only two really good starts against P5/good teams all year. The good news is that one of those was a 6-1 win at KU in mid-April (his last really good start) and, even if he's just mediocre, Fajardo is better than anyone KU will have available to throw tomorrow. They threw six guys vs. TCU (including their best reliever for the second-straight day) and their pitching is basically tied with Baylor for the worst in the league.
So, with all signs pointing to K-State having the clear advantage... who the hell knows what will happen.
Big Game today, German Fajardo on the bump. Sunflower Showdown in Arlington. Dallas Cats get on out and show your support. This is far and away the most important game of the year. If we play tomorrow we are in a Super Regional.hot take
Can't 0 for WSU, 0 for Nebraska, have an overall SOS in the 150's, and get bombed in multiple games going down the stretch and expect to make it in a ridiculously RPI weighted selection process.
Pete knew the heavy RPI lean and scheduled soft anyway.
I don’t know crap about college baseball, how often should a program like KSU get into the tournament?
Well considering we haven’t been to one in a decade, that doesn’t seem realistic.
If the South and West Coast are so dominant that we're destined to miss the tournament more often than not, we shouldn't have invested in top 25-ish facilities. Put that money where it can have an impact.
So how do you overcome being in the bottom quartile of state populations if that is the primary driver?
