That’s the word on the street. Big dollars. I'm hearing $2.1M to go to SC. Liberty's coach to CCU. I get the money but is SC really a better job? He would likely make the tournament more often at Coastal than SC. Maybe... South Carolina has a pretty good baseball history...just not as consistently ...

Seems a good amount of coastal's team is entering portal, as expected I'm sure.

Schnall to USC?
Lemonis or Monte Lee to Coastal?!

Sun Belt needed that one.

A team 95% of America has never heard of with colder weather that us? Go U of Milwaukee! Take the APP team and put them in the Horizon League and they probably would still be playing also - This was sarcasm for the crowd that uses the excuse that we can’t win because it’s cold. (I know they got hot...

I love it when people start spending other people's money...If you believe its the right thing to do, send your checks to: Yosef Club ASU Box 32102 Boone, NC 28608 FTR: our current overall baseball funding is at the 40th percentile within the SBC, and higher than the numbers you're speculating. Hav...

Are those guys more likely to give one time gifts versus annual investments? Outside of Springs, I can’t think of anyone making needle moving money. No clue ands that's a great question. Hopefully they've made a call to him. Unfortunately, we know the facilities battle. That is a big chunk of money...

With the money coming from ? Alumni. Maybe take a dollar or two from Football. A couple of us are trying to set up a call with Kermit to see where we can assist/gauge needs. The program has had a few guys that made some decent money over the past 10-15 years playing professionally. Could be a start...

Who in the conference has NIL at a significant level? Probably just USM and Coastal. But I'm sure other teams will start picking up the slack. As most of these football schools have now realized they have no shot at competing for national relevance...just like us. We're all in the same boat now. We...

Where did Murray State get their “money”?

Selection committee chair heavily emphasized strength of schedule in saying why a team like Mercer didn't get in. He credited teams like Santa Barbara for going out and playing tough series (they went to Southern Miss). Troy was barely above .500 overall, but their schedule was brutally tough. The ...

5 in!!

Time to fund baseball. 36% of the conference playing postseason ball.

The reason is the Sunbelt staff really doesn’t care. I’ve talked to several including Gill. Talk a lot without saying anything.

That’s sad.
SBC baseball carries the conference outside of JMU football.
You’d think they want to invest and improve it.

Really hope the SBC doesn’t get screwed on selection Sunday.

3 are Locks.
USM
Coastal
Louisiana

With what Troy and Tx State did this tourney- both should make it for a total of 5.

Count me among those who would like to see the tournament occasionally move to, say, Winston-Salem or Myrtle Beach. But one big reason the tournament is in Montgomery is something I hadn’t considered until one of our coaches pointed it out. That is, with the SEC Tournament in Hoover, Ala., scouts c...

The two major tournaments are both in the Central ie West Division time zone.

In cities no one thinks about vacationing/visting.

Who leaves and who comes back ? Who do we have coming in other than Sharpe? Time will tell I suppose.

We signed a big 2026/2027 class. Not sure of the breakdown of HS/JUCO though.
I assume we will have open spots for the portal.

Miller falls into the hurt category. I thought Xuereb was hurt too, didn't know he was let go.

Was hurt early, but then didn’t travel with the team the last couple of series when healthy.

Down the stretch… Hurt/Played hurt- Smith, DuPont, Tank, Evans PT Dissapeared- Clark, Stanford- don’t recall Tibbett much. Or Watson. Let go/Kicked off- Xuereb, Nolan. Out for year- Moquin, Marks We were very thin at the end of the year for numerous reasons. That’s not the only cause for our struggl...
