Ketch's 10 Thoughts From The Weekend (It's almost go-time in recruiting)
- Thread starter Ketchum
- Start date
Is the State of Texas really that down this year or are we out of contention with most of the top 20 types?
A lot of that list of expected commitments was underwhelming.

This is all pie in the sky talk, but how many games do you think is reasonable for a baseball season?
Alabama has a lot to replace of their offense from last season, too. I agree that it is a TALL order for this young team to go into Tuscaloosa and grab a W, but I'd also say, if either team shows slight improvement early on offense over last season, it's likely not the one that lost their Heisman-trophy winning QB.

The bottom line is that Texas has not yet proven to be the kind of serious team that goes on the road and wins that game.
The last time we saw Texas play, they were played off the field by an above average Pac-12 team.
Right there with you on MLB. Will barely watch my hometown Astros — in the playoffs!
I’m with you, i now never underestimate Sarks ability to screw up. Our biggest game of the year Sark led the offense to score 3 points
He has as much to prove this season as Ewers does.
No doubt, that is the correct thought process, and the way smart money should bet.
Yeah I was in that ballpark. I was thinking a three game weekend set with all 29 other teams and then switching sites for the same teams again and then one more round of home and away with your conference only. That would put you somewhere in that range.
87 would mean one three game series against each team, each weekend from April through September-ish.
It also means each team needs less starting pitching, which is true in the post-season, which should mean that every team gets stronger s a byproduct.
Absolutely. The injury thing is a good call too along with shorter rotations. Keep more stars on the field.
Every game is big dog vs. big dog. No.1 starter vs, No.1 starter.
Everyone gets a full week of rest in-between starts.
Most starting pitchers start around 30-34 games each season, so it would be the same for the elite pitchers, except they get a little more rest in-between starts.
It’s perfect. But money man, money. I’ve wanted to love MLB again for a long time.
The issue is that MLB's 162-game schedule's greatest value is all of the live programming it provides TV vendors for half the year.
They don't care that we're not watching.
Yeah sports is about the highs and lows and the emotions that they bring and MLB just doesn’t provide any until it’s too late most of the time and the investment hasn’t been created. I need to feel something other than apathy for 6 months.
It'll be over the dead body of the owners before they ever change anything drastic. Too much money at the gate and on local TV deals would be lost.
