Maybe it’s just that the calendar has turned to July; maybe it’s that there’s just nothing going on this weekend; but for the first time this year, I’m really aching for some college football. This feeling will persist until MS State drops a non-conference game they should have easily won #HailState #Sports #cfb #ncaa

Time to watch my Mississippi State Bulldogs set the sport of basketball back 50 years, as we take on Pitt in the play-in round of the NCAA Tourney. Let’s get ugly. #HailState #MarchMadness #NCAABasketball #Sports

I don’t envy Chris Lemonis. He shepherded the team to a national title in ‘21, but missed the postseason completely last year, and a repeat of that debacle is not going to be well-received by the fan base. MSU is a proud program with a lot of history, but only that one title. Not saying State fans expect a title every year, but any perceived slide from “elite program” status is not going to be tolerated in Starkville. Not in baseball. It’s just not.

Issue: what to do at catcher. In Sunday’s win, Lemonis moved Hancock back to first, and started freshman Ross Highfill behind the plate, to better results. Trouble is, this now creates a logjam in the lineup. 1st baseman Hunter Hines, our best hitter, got benched Sunday for Hancock. Hines is too good to leave on the bench. Put him in at DH, right? Then what do you do with current DH Bryce Chance, who’s been incredible? Tough decisions coming.

3 - Defense: Mediocre-to-bad on Friday. Tolerable on Sunday. APOCALYPTICALLY bad in Saturday’s total collapse that saw a 10-1 lead turn into a 14-13 loss. The good thing is, this is something that can be worked on. Our 2021 CWS champion team started slow defensively too.
And the good:
This lineup is dangerous top-to-bottom. Amani Larry had the most explosive debut I can ever remember from a Bulldog hitter. (And with our pitching, we’re gonna need him.)

Don’t know how many people on here follow #CollegeBaseball but anyway, here’s a few thoughts from Mississippi State’s opening weekend series:
1 - Luke Hancock, as great as he is at the plate and as a team leader, is unfortunately a liability at catcher. Can’t throw anyone out. Unbelievable that the coaching staff hadn’t recognized this.
2. Pitching is a problem. Again. We have some talent, but we’re going to end up relying on some unproven arms. Hope they get good fast.

Ump show in Starkville 🙄 #HailState #CollegeBaseball #Sports

Well, since the baseball team just slammed 8 runs home in the bottom of the 1st, looks like I’m switching to hoops for a little bit . #HailState #CollegeBaseball #NCAABasketball #Sports

Mississippi State baseball and basketball, playing at the same time - what to do, what to do #Hailstate #Sports

Well, it wasn’t always pretty but the Bulldogs win big in the season opener, 11-2 over VMI.
The good: This lineup is full of dudes who just get on base. Amani Larry is the next Mangum.
The bad: Sloppy fielding. Got better as the game went on but pretty bad to start.
Too soon to tell: Pitching. Cade Smith was good as the starter, middle relief got kinda shaky, but newcomer Logan Forsythe shut VMI down in the 9th.
Good first outing, room to improve.

State leads 1-0 after the first. I don't know how our pitching is gonna hold up over the course of the year, but this lineup should be able to do some serious damage.

It will always be a mystery to me how ESPN's in-game graphics overlays for baseball are compact, deliver all the relevant information, and obscure as little as possible of the action on the field, while their college basketball graphics are all “HEEEEEYYYY LOOK AT ME”

And baseball season is officially underway, with a first-pitch strike courtesy of Bulldog starter Cade Smith. LETS GOOOOO

It’s opening day. Mississippi State vs VMI at Dudy Noble.
MSU baseball is a thing unto itself. We love football and basketball, sure, but baseball is first in the hearts of most State fans. There’s truly nothing like a game at the Carnegie Hall of College Baseball. Can’t wait, HAIL STATE!

State lets this one slip away, losing by 13. Sloppy game with turnovers aplenty for the Dogs. No Jessika Carter, which didn’t help - hopefully she’s back for the next one. Oh well. Flush it and move on

State trailing Mizzou by 4 at the half in CoMo, after leading by 10 in the 1st quarter. Jessika Carter, you are SORELY missed. A loss here would be devastating for our tourney hopes. Let’s hope we can pull it back together in the 2nd half!

No Jessika Carter tonight for the Lady Bulldogs … hope somebody else steps up
