Who do have coming back?  Which freshman are likely to make it to campus?  What do we need from the portal?

The Lord wants you to put your foot on their balls and believe in it. 'Cuz that's what wins football games. Not jumping offsides like a bunch of wimps and faggots. I don't care what those pinkos over in Russia say. You want to be a loser? You go live in Russia. I'm a winner. I'm an American.

Yeah, a lot of movement in college baseball. Even before the portal came to fruition.

Dude was in a helluva lot of pain for a while.  Many players were.  The fact we won the SEC and got a regional and number 3 seed solidifies even more that DVH is the GOAT.  At Arkansas.  Let me be specific less someone thinks I mean in all of college baseball.

Figure we hit the portal hard for a catcher. Sure wish we had Tamez back from Alabama.

Zero chance that we have both Rowland and Polk back. Have to think at least one of those guys transfers.

Rowland was one of the worst hitters I've ever seen wear a Razorback uniform, but he was good defensively. Polk couldn't hit and was also a defensive liability.

Pretty amazing what we accomplished this year with two automatic outs in the lineup, both of whom either finished or spent most of the season below the Mendoza Line.

There is a 3rd catcher on the roster my son thinks should have gotten so,e time but must be redshirting (still a thing in the portal days?) but o f get his name

mde114 hopes we don't get TCU on the 2024 schedule next year because they beat us.

Tamez was a defensive liabiltiy. That's why he left. He was primarily DH at Bama this year.

Harold Coll going to the portal.

Barton Fink

No surprise there. He was a solid backup but I'm sure he wants more PT.

Coll being unable to edge out Bolton reminded me of the Dukakis-Bush debate skit from SNL. "I can't believe I'm losing to this guy."

Can Stovall play SS?  Holt could stay at 2B.

After labrum surgery Stovall is probably back to first base next year.  I believe it's the same injury that prevented Ezell from playing 2B here.
