I am kinda PO'd. I opened my ESPN app and see today's games which include: Marshall, Xavier, Kent, Wright State, YSU, Toledo and the like. No OHIO! I guess we do the "live update" crap. Reminds me of the 80's when I struggled to get 105.5 in Z-ville in order listen in on hoop games. Oh well.

In the 1970s from Chesapeake, Ohio, I had a directional antenna on my roof to pick up OHIO games. I guess you and I are real diehards.

I feel you. A friend of mine has a son that pitches for BG so watched BG/Western Carolina. Still want to visit Western Carolina (Larry). Seems very pretty.

Well..45 runs scored against us in (4) games. My first thought to start the year: how many arms we got?

I figured it would take time to build/develop a pitching staff. It is tough to take over a struggling program let alone throwing in the portal and NIL. Pitchers are going to be the QB of the portal. I admit I have no clue on how NIL plays into a sport like baseball and I should. Can't be much money unless you are the likes of LSU, Texas or NC's of the world.

Ted: It has been many decades but I still remember seeing the South for the first time while on my first Spring trip. This hill-jack from Z-ville had never been out of Ohio. Blacksburg, Greensboro, Durham, etc., were awesome. Mountains, sandy coastal plains, and big ass pine trees all are still memorable.

Now that said, it also began to form my personal opinion that Ohio University was and is the greatest place on earth.

Outside of the elite p4 schools there is very little nil money for baseball. I know a kid who had a huge year at an existing p4 school, was a top transfer target for sec schools, and his package came in under 6 figures at the new p4 school. Still a nice deal, but compare that to football where high schoolers are getting 7 figs.
