Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

Yeah Davis would be tough to get, but when momma comes calling, you never know.

I think he really enjoys his current role and is being paid handsomely. I think Wilkerson is the current most likely at this point to succeed kesling if he wants it. And that call last night was fantastic. How old is kesling anyway?

Haven't seen it

He has even said it himself, sometimes he leaves his pitchers in for too long. Lol, but be my guest in giving absolutely zero insight into why you would of kept Dollander in instead of pulling him an inning sooner.

Just so happened we got the bats going last night, but if we wouldn’t of that extra inning Dollander threw could of been the reason we lost.

Dollander needed to throw enough pitches to get his arm work out so he will be ready next week. I think Anderson knows what he is doing After all, his pitching staff led the NCAA in ERA and we won the game. Our pitchers have not had the work them got each week during the regular season and need work. Starting pitchers need more work than relievers because they pitch only every 4 days or so. Campbell is a good baseball team and we need to have as many arms available as possible if we have to play either them or Ga Tech on Monday. If you are searching for something to gripe about, find something that is legitimate, such as posters who post about something about which they have little or no knowledge.

Hey guys really need your prayers!!!! My 6 year old nephew who lives in Lexington Kentucky was diagnosed with brain cancer roughly two months ago and after his first three cycles of chemotherapy the tumor doubled in size, from what they could not remove with surgery sadly! He will headed to Cincinnati children hospital for combination chemotherapy and radiation.
With that being said he is a huge basketball fan and is also a UK fan! My buddy played ball with Coach Calipari at UNC Wilmington and reached out to him today per my request and asked for some signed things like jersey and basketball and within a minute Coach responded He said, I am on it ,consider it done! So next time you all and me say this is the biggest dirt bag in college ball, remember this story, most are happy with the life GOD chose for them and deep down have hearts! Thank You Coach Cal and thank all of Volnation for your prayers! Life can be very unfair!

Prayers sent

Burke is good at baseball.

Campbell is a good team made better by pizzpoor home umpiring.

Burke is amazing as is but when he learns to work a pitcher he may break records. Offspeed stuff makes him look bad but he’s young and still learning. Can’t wait to see what he looks like in the next few years.

He swings at dumb ****. Clean that up, I agree he's going to be dangerous.

Not-so-patiently waiting for Kesling to retire to have Wilkerson be the official Voice of the Vols.

Danny White needs to make this happen. Kesling is like sticking ice picks in your ears. Wilkerson’s voice as the lead of the broadcast would be amazing.

 

[Vols4us]

JJJ....gets it.

Warms my heart that great guys like JJJ and so many others understand. It's life long thing.

 

[Glitch]

Well that seems pointless.

Lol..I love that movie

He'll figure it out with Vitello and Elander coaching him up. Future first rounder and long time MLB player IMO. That swing...

On 1 days rest?

This isn’t little league.

Ha I knew that. Just surprised with the oversight the NCAA likes to implement there isn't some mandatory rest period for safety and health concerns.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Why are we cursed with Kesling....nothing personal, he is a good person, but he is horrid horrid horrid announcer.

We went from the to the worst, and we have guys like this sitting around that could do the job ten times better than "Mr. what a change of events"..

Turn moran
Turn of events!

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

He doesn’t leave them in long at all. They are always on pitch counts, but we needed Dolly to go a little bit. If we lose, we will be using a lot of guys the next 2 days.

This...people don't understand postseason baseball.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I just never agree with how long Tony V leaves his pitchers in. It was obvious that Chase was struggling after the first run was scored. He should of been shortly after.

SMH..

Same difference..it just proves my point, it was so f'n boring that I can't even precisely remember how f'n boring he said it.

 

[ndubvols]

Yeah I get that, I just think he should of been pulled an inning sooner. That is all. (By long I meant when he noticeably began to struggle - umpire was not helping either)

You can argue he should’ve pulled him a batter or two earlier, but he pitched 2 scoreless prior to the 3rd so an inning earlier would’ve been way too quick of hook for the sec pitcher of the year.

 

[Orange Studs]

Doesn't get any better call than that. Wish he could call our Football games to.

 

[BleedorangeinGA]

I’ll be the first to admit I’ve never actively followed Tennessee baseball before two months ago. Our family has thoroughly enjoyed it. This team puts on a show, it’s been a lot of fun to watch.

An inning sooner?? He hadn’t given up a run through the first 2? Surely you don’t mean that.

“Just so happened” to get the bats going? The offense leads the country in bombs and averages over 9 runs per game LOL.

I’d have a difficult time pulling him bc:

- ace of staff who has proven himself
- aforementioned explosive offense
- it was the 3rd inning

You realize the guy you almost never agree with in terms of when to pull a pitcher has helped guide his pitching staff to the lowest ERA in the entire country, right? I’d say he’s got that sh*t figured out.
