Sean Kelley UF is lucky to have him. As I mentioned in an early season football game GC thread, you'd think he'd been at UF for a decade. You can tell he does a ton of research before games. I know they get fed info during games, but most of what he says are his own thoughts. So no need for corny cliches or catchphrases. TCU & UVA It'll be interesting to see how both teams handle gut wrenching losses. There's CWS history to support both sacking up the bats and chip on the shoulder mentalities. Cags By my math, he's 8-35 in the post season with one multi-hit game. Sniffing the Mendoza Line. If he can get off the schneid, and put up some clutch at bats, it would be huge. Gatorgal04 A GC All-Star. Nothing more needs to be said. 20/20 Vision To paraphrase, after the game, someone asked where all the posters that wanted Sully fired went. I'm starting to be concerned about the reading comprehension abilities of a few of the GC members. I could be mistaken, but in the ~600 posts during the game, I don't remember reading the word fired. Civil debate and differing thoughts are part of what game threads should include. Spin it any way you want, but both Head Coaches made some decisions that were head scratchers. Fortunately, the UVA coach painted himself in a corner and had to leave Lurch in the game too long in the 9th inning. As I try to always close. It's Great To Be A Florida Gator.
It was interesting to hear him and Cardozo alternate doing the play-by-play. I wonder if that means anything for the future.
My random thought was last night after Ty Evans had homered and touched home plate he took his batting helmet off and tapped it with his teammate’s standing there (which is our tradition and I love it)—I noticed that he has a flat top haircut. I thought that was ol’school cool.
You literally said that Kevin O'Sullivan's approach to the game doesn't work and implied that being a great recruiter is his only attribute. That's not civil debate.
Lol—that one is way past my time—you’re going to have to get your answer from folks younger than me. I’m sure it’s a celebratory thing but I have no idea where it came from.
There are two things I've noticed relating to our baseball team... I'll tell you all about it after we win it all.
Random thoughts post game - I wonder if we change dugouts for our next game and who will be the home team when we play Oral Roberts.
My son in laws dad was his coach at Lakeland Christian and said he’s a great kid,…so much fun to see someone who has struggled this year produce on the big stage at a big time. Think of those memories when he gets to be an old man like some of us!
Literally, look up the definition of the term literally. You'll see the word exactly. Which is a synonym for literally. While your at it, look up implied and civil debate. "Being a great recruiter can't be your only attribute. Fundamentally, baseball might be the easiest sport to manage. Put the best players on the field and stay out of the way."
I'm pulling for Cags with a bit of bias. He and my niece went to HS together in Tampa. That said, a finalist for the DI College Baseball POY should be expected to step up in crucial situations. Conversely, if the Gators are looking for Kurland to do the heavy lifting, I'd be concerned.
