Trying to figure out next year

Weekend 1 - Home Guarantee
Weekend 2 - ???
Weekend 3 - Frisco Classic
Weekend 4

I'm sure we owe Wichita State a return series & Arkansas State probably comes to Ruston next year, so the info below is probably not useful.

http://collegebaseballinsider.com/op...18-open-dates/

Some of these dates may be filled and our schedule might be as well
Weekend 1
131 UCA

Weekend 2
52 South Alabama (They want a home series so its unlikely)
94 Oral Roberts
95 Samford

Weekend 4
4 Kentucky (looking for home)
16 Miss State (looking for home)
31 Houston (looking for home)


95 Samford is looking for Midweek home - could play Wednesday before UAB next year

http://collegebaseballinsider.com/op...19-open-dates/


http://collegebaseballinsider.com/op...20-open-dates/

I'd be surprised if the Arkansas series doesn't continue

I agree. Those have been midweek games.

I think Tech needs to play a weekend series against the Leopards. Call it the "Weekend of Hate" (Caution, may be hazardous to snowflakes)".

for the opening weekend, I'd try and get Utah

How much would it cost to guarantee the game? They are 33 RPI right now

Probably just motel rooms...

I don't think @ Wichita State works in February or early March. They spent almost 4 weeks in the south this year.

Then maybe it was a guarantee series. After Weekend 4, it's all C-USA games unless they make an exception for us and let us play a conference series in W4.

I went back an looked at this year's schedule for them. They played two early series up there in February, but that's a long trip for us to get snowed out. They played Texas Tech up there in late March.

Like the Frisco Classic, I wish LSU would do something like that for state schools. LSU, LA TECH, Tulane, ULL

doubtful since they use those games for mid-week series

We have enough state schools where it could be done. ULM, Southern, Northwestern, UNO, McNeese, Grambling, Nichols, LA TECH, Tulane, ULL, Southeastern.

Pick 3 and have a round robin in Baton Rouge. As long as we are 1 of the 3, it doesn't matter to me who the other 2 are...

I don't think Tech fans could've gotten a better draw.

We got the Friday night game instead of the Friday afternoon game. :thumbsup:

We got the Saturday afternoon game, which frees up Saturday night. :thumbsup:

We got the Sunday afternoon game instead of the Sunday morning game. :thumbsup:

Really good schedule for Tech fans attending this tournament.

They must not of consulted with the right people before setting these times...

Off the top of my head, I'd say this tourney is one of T-Mac's Top 3 accomplishments as Tech AD behind the Aillet Stadium pressbox/suites project and the Greg Goff hire.

Gonna take a really quick rebuild for us to be competitive against this field. Will we pitch well enough to stay in the games? Hope so.

We will miss Nate. Not losing any other pitching that helped us this year. Griffen should be even better. Sullivan and Ahlrich should be strong relievers.

We will miss the bats. Yes they were quiet in Biloxi, but they will missed.

I understand that Parikh is a stud. I look for him to compete next year in a starting spot. With Skelton at SS, maybe 2b.

We should be great defensively up the middle. Skelton's bat got better later in the year. Bates just needs more reps at the plate, he has some power.

Been to Pepperdine several times. An absolutely awesome setting for a campus.

I never would've gone to class there. A great place to sit on the side of a hill and sample herbs while enjoying the scenery.

TY

I'm ready for some baseball! Maybe pick up a 5th seat for the #2 grandson that loves him some Tech baseball about as much as he does basketball. Getting big enough he needs his own seat.

Need to win the ulm game for an rpi boost...

That felt really awkward to type -
