Coaching or NIL or both
Scott and Volchko are 6-0 thus far
Thanks Bob, I'm very sorry to hear this. Sounds like we need the NIL war chest and some solid coaching for our pitchers. If the Georgia coach was able to make the mechanics adjustments (arm slot plus...) to get these results early on, well, then something sounds amiss at Sunken.
I don't know how good Georgia is at coaching, but they are very good at scheduling pre-conference powder puffs. Here is who and where the 15-3 Bulldogs have played so far:
Wright State (currently 5-9, #31 RPI) x 3, home, won 2, lost 1
USC Upstate (8-10, #65) x 1, home, win
Samford (6-9, #186) x 3, home, won 3
Troy (6-10, #67) x 1 home, lost
Oakland (1-14, #156) x 4, home, won 4
Kennesaw State (7-6, #71) x 1, away, won
Western Carolina (11-6, #78) x 1, home, lost
Queens, NC (4-13, #224) x 4, home, won 4
15 wins and 3 losses gets you a gaudy record and an RPI of...
#126
Georgia opens SEC play vs Tennessee this weekend (at home, of course). In any case, 18 of Georgia's next 23 games are against conference opponents, so we'll get a better idea by then just how much Scott and Volchko have improved.
Nice revenge win for Stanford tonight against Nevada!
If there's one thing people have learned in Berkeley, it's that you can't put "Cal football" and "Rose Bowl" in the same sentence. The words just don't fit. You'd be better off linking "covered wagons" with "Mars travel." (Bruce Jenkins, Cal '70, SF Chronicle, Nov. 11, 2017)
