We wouldn’t let him start?

6IP, 3H, 0R, 1BB, 10K (W, 1-0).
98-99 mph FB, with a 3000 rpm Slider

We got 3-4 guys better than that?

He struggled in the starting role last year…. we made him a long reliever where he was very successful…. He could have earned a starting role again but decided to transfer.

No we definitely don’t. He has a chance to be a top 3 pick. But he started struggling mid way through the year as a starter, moved to the pen and improved and helped us get to Omaha. Hard to fault him tho bcuz starters make way more money. Wake Forest has 3 pitchers drafted first round and 11 drafted overall since 2020

that’s not true though…. MLB will scout the arm and determine what his potential is…. With his arm…. He would have been highly drafted regardless.

If that’s the case Ben Joyce would have been a top 15 pick. MLB teams are not taking a guy top 3 if they aren’t a viable starter in college or HS. Wake Forest has been producing pitchers like crazy lately and promised him to be in the weekend rotation. Vs UT who moved him to the Pen. It’s a pretty easy choice

Ps5 and series X have just under a terabyte on board. The S has 512gb which means you can download Call of Duty and be full. I upgraded my PS5 with a 2tb drive for under 150. The downside to upgrading the Xbox X is it's proprietary tech. I can get 1tb upgrade for about the same price I was able to get the 2tb bc of that. Prices have dropped on those Xbox ugrades but you're talking about proprietary that initially only one manufacturer was making upgrades for vs a SSD that will work in every PC + your PS5.

They could make these games take up less space but I reckon the whole thing is a scam like the price of groceries.

The issue is they promised him a starting role.....Vols told him he had every chance to earn it.

Whatever. Is done and I'm sure he did what he thought was best.

Don't fault Tennessee a bit though.
