Appears we have an uninterested team this weekend who would rather be watching basketball. Terrible start again. 2 walks to start game and then 2 errors to follow
 
Jonesy filling in some good context right now on what he sees with this team. I like that - pointed but not overly negative.

Yikes, Jones musing on this group being soft and undisciplined. What you see on field mirrored off the field.

Dropped fly ball from Minick in the bottom of the 8th. And SDSU took the lead. Lineup goes down in order and UConn with a 6-4 loss.
 
Rispoli starred in a horror show today. That kid was nails last year. D and baserunning is a problem, not to mention zero clutch hitting. I like the arms in 3 game win at all cost BE weekends and tourney.

Dirt ain’t turf!
 
Jones pointed to the new ballpark, and performance center and said that the team is a bit coddled. Which I do understand, but most top D1 teams in the country have that now, and what may be the best UConn team ever in 2022 did as well. NIL could be a direct correlation.

I do wonder about all of this. Biggest concern is that players who have been there aren’t performing. Same thing last year. Big East preseason POYs and first teamers completely stiffing. Regression is one thing, falling off a cliff is another.
Not catching fly balls is nightmare stuff.
 
Maybe the experiment isn’t working. Grabbing D2 transfers and trying to build a team.

BC has minimal transfers. Built it through NEast long term development. Look at their roster.

We can’t get out recruited in the NEast. We are.

This isn’t accurate. Half of BCs starting lineup and starting rotation are transfers including several of their best players and several who transferred “up” from lower tier schools. You need both to succeed and neither UConn nor BC have taken a significantly different approach in that regard.
 
Top 1st, Pudvar has a 1-2-3 inning against San Diego State. No score.
 
is the second game on any tv or stream? Looks like it’s MiXLR or nothing for the first.
