This team pisses down their leg over and over again. Offensively, defensively, pitching, coaching. They just don't make winning plays when it matters.

Would have loved to have seen a Marohn, Dudan, Nance rotation. I would argue there wouldn't have been a better rotation in the country.
Hit em with the Sherm stick!

Nance is dealing. Who do you think comes up in relief first?
Last game of the year, let him throw 150

Yep, with Consiglio closing and we'd probably be fighting for a host spot.

It's actually kind of wild what happens when this team gets runners in scoring position.
9 hits, 2 homeruns, a double, and you have scored 4 runs.

Garino
McDuffie is a problem, but how do you watch fastballs straight down the middle like that?

I don't really keep up with baseball but one thing I know. UNC baseball has a lot more $ than NC State Baseball. This will be Avent's final season, but unless the $ situation changes it won't matter who Boo hires.
More money is always good but I'm not sure why it matters in this scenario? What's the issue? State has more than enough talent. They've averaged 5 draft picks per year since covid and are set for like 8 this year. Isn't that the whole point of having money?
UNC has a 3.64 ERA. NC State has a 5.39 ERA. I would imagine that's about the $ available to acquire talent and depth in the pitching staff. It matters.
It's about HS recruiting. None of those UNC guys are portal guys.
And guess what, you need $ for top HS guys too.
Other than 2B their entire infield is portal/JUCO. None were really big ticket portal guys that cost a mint.
RF was a walk on. CF was a portal kid from George mason. Their C was a portal addition from Ga State and another C came from duke and he's been DH'ng.
Their pitching staff (minus the lefty from last night) is homegrown from HS but none were highly ranked to the point it costs a mint in NIL to get them.
I totally agree we need to spend more money and Elliott is too old school to do that. Hart or whomever takes over will try to raise money, they have to.
Baseball is different in that the truly top HS guys get drafted and don't attend college. Guys like Ty Head got some money but it ain't football/basketball type money. Unc ain't spending too much more than us, IMO. Problem is it's more, which I think is your point.
It's a fair amount more. Forbes has some donors helping.

Let the adventure begin. 9 outs boys, let's get it done.

I've seen enough of our bullpen to wish they would've pushed Nance one more inning. Hope this works out for us. We need this one bad!

I thought Nance would've gone one more but I'm glad it is Hemric. I really don't hope we see both.
You need 7 more outs. I'd ride with him the whole time

I am assuming they have the ACC tournament in mind but man this is a must win game.
Nance was only at 93 pitches. Not sure why you don't roll with him to start the inning the way he was cruising.

Needed that so so badly. Huge AB for the kid
They heard you and delivered. So we're likely the 8th seed?
Terrific AB from DeCarlo fighting back from 0-2

I think with UVA losing but I'm not positive how that works.
LET's GOOOOO!!!
Feeling a little bit better now.
Just need 6 more outs and to hold at least a 6 run lead.

I might drive to Raleigh ready for a fight if we pull Hemric.

Welp. Six more outs and hold a 5 run lead.
Not asking for much, am I?
Hemric looks pretty good out of the pen. Can we find 1 more reliable pen arm and then see what we can get out of Nance, Consiglio, and Heath in ACC and hopefully beyond.

Announcers just mentioned that due to tiebreakers we are either the 9th or 10th seed

Yeah I don't know how the tiebreakers work but I also wouldn't listen to a word EB says lol

Might not be the worst thing. Probably aren't winning the ACC championship with the pitching depth.
So if you can string together a couple wins would help the NCAA Tournament chances.
3 more outs. Not asking for a lot.

I dont know how It lines up, but if you could play Clemson as the 9 seed that's a very good thing for an RPI boost. Then just go all in on a daily basis trying to creep that number up.
