Re: If we are not going to legitimately TRY to win a game
I don't know why they even count mid-week games in the RPI. I believe they only recently started counting them. They are like JV games, really. Developmental games. Teams like EKU save their best pitcher for Vandy's No. 4 or 5 pitcher and they are bouncing off the walls for a chance to beat a name team. They shouldn't count towards anything other than the overall record.

Sadly, the best pitcher in that class, Donny Everett, did not make it to his junior year.ScrappyDore wrote:This Junior class is the worst class of pitchers maybe in the history of the program. Other than Raby, not a single other pitcher can be counted on for an out.

Yes, I suspect he would have been the ace and Friday night starter this year had that awful, tragic accident not occurred.nyyankeeDore wrote:Sadly, the best pitcher in that class, Donny Everett, did not make it to his junior year.ScrappyDore wrote:This Junior class is the worst class of pitchers maybe in the history of the program.
