Opening Weekend Shocks at Northwestern State Demons

[NCAABound]

What's the run rule in college?

Death after 9

[Kung Wu]

Generally isn't one in non-con games.

Ouch.

[NCAABound]

I love Pelphrey...but at what point does he start getting some blame for this? (Im not saying now so slow your roll).

[DJShocker10]

Only run rules I ever saw were 10 after 7 and (more importantly) 1 after 9.

[Cdizzle]

The 7th so far:

Hit, Walk, Error, Wild Pitch, Walk, Walk, Hit.

No outs.

Update: Wild Pitch, Wild Pitch, OUT! Woo hoo!

Wild pitch, wild pitch, strikeout(!), Single

I was expecting to suck and will not freak out.

Kind of odd to bring up in the first 7 innings of the first game

[1972Shocker]

Not being able to get anyone out and multiple pitching changes really slows the game down.

When they've had a couple of years to recruit pitchers that can pitch. I've got some eligibility, but it wouldn't be Pelfrey's fault that I sucked.

Give me Mike Pelfrey and I'll look like a great pitching coach. Give Mike Pelfrey me and he'll look like the world's worst pitching coach.

Well he was the pitching coach last year too ma'am.

[Cdizzle]

Well he was the pitching coach last year too ma'am.

When we also didn't have any pitchers. I'm not saying he's the answer. He's 100% unproven. In any direction.

Im not saying he needs to go. But IMO he needs to start showing he can coach and also recruit. I by no means have a pitchfork out for him.

This is a new year with a new head man in charge. It’s now Wedge’s responsibility.

Hamilton did a good job. Is Pelphrey the same coach for Hamilton who is new as he is for Haase who is a hold over? Give the coaches time to decide who can play and who can’t. Time to evaluate and time to recruit. We weren’t good last year so are we going to turn it around immediately?

Sure. But day 1 (and really more like day -730) is a little early to even ask the question, IMO.

Does Wedge suck cause we haven't scored? Maybe. Probably not worth asking that question for another year or two.

[NCAABound]

Good God I even said nows not the time...i was just throwing it out since the pitching has been far less than adequate under him.
