Geting a great player for one year is alright with me. If he is good. One never knows until he gets on the field at a high level. We are going to lose alot this year. Five or six good seniors. Who knows about the draft!!!

[Ta town]

thru 55 games:

.462 20hr 82rbi

also 22 doubles and 80 runs scored

Spinner, are you going if drafted high enough?

Re: Scott Schebler - for any doubters

don't doubt. This kid is a flat-out stud. Tremendous athlete and hard worker.

Last year he made headlines around eastern Iowa with some amazing things he was doing at the plate. I checked out some video my station had shot plus other sources and all I could think of was "this is a guy we need."

Thankfully the coaches at WSU got wind of him as well. It doesn't hurt that UNI and Iowa St. dropped their programs. Even though he grew up about 10 miles from Iowa City baseball at the big school is an afterthought.

The recruiting ground up here is fertile - lots of good youth programs and lots of good players, but no place for them to go. The Shocks could make a great pipeline out of this part of the country. We've had some good ones in the past, let's hope the trend continues.

80% probability that Jack is either a) a relative of the player, b) a good friend of the player..


Not that it matters. Just a well educated guess..

I would think that Jack is just a baseball lover and spends a great deal of time at legion ball and other such venues.

We once had a Cactus Jack who roamed the ShockerNet halls. I wonder what ever happened to him . . . could he be back?

What ever happened to Court Jester?

He joined Oboma's cabinet

This guy looks like a stud in the making to me. Glad to see that Gene is getting some power hitters back in the lineup, typically where we have been short in the past.
