Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[SoilVol]

Welp....here is where the season dies.

After one game?

 

[Jimmy Football]

I prefer the dancing umps….. those guys are hilarious.

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

Come on 6 lb 7 Oz Baby Jesus please let us Atleast tie this up in the Bottom of the 9th!

 

[LA Vol]

The NCAA wants the Vols out, yesterday.

Think a lot of people don't want the "Villains" in the CWS. Notre Dame is much more in line with the image they want and the narrative they want to spin.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

If this works...y'all can thank me later.

 

[volbeast33]

Dumbest rule in all of sports.

Maybe but as a baseball player…. You know what’s going to happen.

After one game?

He’s doing his reverse mojo.

Yep..

They're over our shenanigans.

 

[volbeast33]

I love watching YouTube videos of outlandish ump calls!

They will not give up. We know that

I agree...dumb of Gilbert, very dumb; but, nowhere near as dumb as a rule that balls and strikes can't be argued. Biggest part of the game, and the participants can't say anything about it.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Seriously though...it will not surprise me to lose this series...it's CWS baseball and there is a reason the best team never wins.

 

[Orangeredblooded]

I’ll join you on the other side of it. The umps can kiss my a**.

 

[volKano]

JFC first pitch is fastball down the middle. Why not swing?

Too many people have been complaining about swinging at the first pitch so the players are trying that instead.

We need to at least make the CWS.

 

[RiseToTheTop]

Our starters are not getting it done and we just give away a ton of at bats. Rather just argue and look. Notre Dame competed much better at the plate unfortunately.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Yeah...the fix is in. I can't believe Volbeast thinks this isn't a screw job. They tried hard last week, but they couldn't keep us from hitting.

Come on man..you know what I mean..

 

[Ace]

We need some 9th inning magic!!
Go Vols!!!

Bats were cold from the get.

How is a player arguing balls and strikes….. accountabilty…. That has to come from the head office…. People complained series and I didn’t think it was a bad called series…. The pitches are traveling 85-95 mph and can move more than 10 inches…. It is also where the imo thinks the ball crosses any part of the plate and not where it is caught.

Just use common sense and self awareness. Tell the player, “son, I disagree, let’s play ball.”

While at a really low level, I’ve officiated basketball. Parents and coaches yell. I’ve been intimidated. But use common sense. As long as no one threatens me, I’m ok. I don’t understand why officials/umpires can’t help diffuse as opposed to being the problem. It’s not that difficult.

Our starters are getting knocked before the 4th here lately.
