Think its NCAA or bust for Erstad this year? - I know this board hates coaching change speculation, but this isn't like basketball. Facilities, history, fan support, we should be the big dog of the big 10 year in and year out.

 

I don't think so.  I'd guess Erstad is here for as long as he wants to be.  I do think he eventually jumps to the majors.  I think that level may be a better fit for him.

worry about the talent evaluation ability.  Doesn't seem like we are a very athletic team ever, which does toolsy things. 

[The Polish Rifle]

It just feels like we've had the same team every year under Erstad - Floor isn't too low, we'll compete in the conference - But the ceiling is maybe beating the 4 seed in the NCAAs if we get there. 

 

I'm hoping with 3 solid weekend guys, the bats can come around and get us to new heights.

[The Polish Rifle]

Ohio State up 6-1 on Oregon State in the 9th. We will probably get a motivated angry Oregon State team tomorrow.

[The Polish Rifle]

We've left the bases loaded 3 times in 4 innings, never seen anything quite like that.

Is there any info on Cole Klemke?  I was wondering why he hasn't had a chance to play.  We've used everyone, but him in right field this year.  I tried searching to see if something was up, but didn't find anything.

He played in the first two games of the year in right.

That was Ben Klenke, a redshirt freshmen. 

 

Our pitching has been not very good this year.  We better start righting the ship.  10 runs to Oregon State, 6 runs, through 8, to Utah.  I thought our staff would be much more dominant.  Much more worried about our bats, which have not started out, well.  Losing those 2 games last week, really hurts this team.

Yeah, having Meyers, Waldron and Burkamper back gave me high hopes for this year. Lunesman can't find the zone tonight which is concerning as well, a closer with command problems is a bad combo.

We went 1-1 last week?

But he got the pitchers best friend, to get him out of the jam.

Yessir, this constant game of catch-up isn't fun, looks like Utah going to their closer. Let's get to him here.

Sorry, I meant, losing the 2 games to rain.  Hurts the team not to get some game action in, especially early in the season.

Ahh got ya!  I would 100 percent agree with that!

[The Polish Rifle]

Huskers down 2-0 after 1.......haven't scored 1st yet this season, 5 games and counting. 

[The Polish Rifle]

4-0 OSU after 2....playing like hot garbage once again today. I'm going out for the night, hopefully they get their poop in a group.

[hskr4life]

4-2... poops coming around!

[The Polish Rifle]

Just learned our last 3 batters struck out looking....says a lot about a team. Gotta nut up tomorrow. 

[Huskerpapa]

Not the season start that we needed.  Long season, but this team needs to start pushing the right buttons.

[The Polish Rifle]

We have a 1st inning lead! First time all year we are not playing from behind.

[hskr4life]

Winner!
