Re: 2023 Baseball Mega Thread
They Gave Their ALL For Appalachian State. We proved that we are not only competitive in the Sun Belt, but we are now challengers in a “P5” baseball league. Great things are to come.

Re: 2023 Baseball Mega Thread
This team never quit - fought to the last out every game - and that is a reflection on the type of young men who put on the uniform BUT more so it tells me about the character of Coach Smith and his assistants -
Let me just say this - Anyone who continually calls for the firing of coaches is NOT a fan, just an angry, frustrated know-nothing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: 2023 Baseball Mega Thread
This team beat all expectations this season and certainly during the tournament. We had a special bunch of seniors leading the way.
Let's announce that extension!

When will "It's better than what we had" no longer be good enough for App State?

Re: 2023 Baseball Mega Thread
Great season coach Smith, staff and team. The game has change A LOT in his 7 seasons and should be a reminder of what he inherited from Jones, thanks to Cobb. The fractures caused in recruiting can’t be understated but thankfully we have the portal and the rebuilding of recruiting trails.

Re: 2023 Baseball Mega Thread
Let’s give a shout-out to this thread. 82 pages strong. Thank you to everyone who invested in app state baseball this year. Many people who would have never paid attention to this team got invested and the support grew stronger. That’s what this program needs. This team was so fun to follow and gave us joy we haven’t had in a decade. Cheers to App state baseball and all the supporters and let’s keep this train rolling

Re: 2023 Baseball Mega Thread
Great season - I'm assuming that is Tut will return. With him and Hamilton that is a good 1-2 punch to start with.
They will get a few transfers or JUCO's for the field that will help immediately. Just gotta find some pitchers.

Re: 2023 Baseball Mega Thread
I have to think that a 30 win season will help with picking up some solid transfers. Fingers crossed

They need to announce KS extension as well. Not sure what the hold up is.

Re: 2023 Baseball Mega Thread
Any insight on Xander’s future? Obviously we won’t know for sure until after the draft. Would be huge to get him for another year.Appmountaineers19 wrote: ↑Sun May 28, 2023 9:07 amGreat season - I'm assuming that is Tut will return. With him and Hamilton that is a good 1-2 punch to start with.

Re: 2023 Baseball Mega Thread
He can’t transfer without sitting so draft or UDFA is likely our only hurdle to clear.appstate24 wrote: ↑Sun May 28, 2023 9:27 amAny insight on Xander’s future?

Re: 2023 Baseball Mega Thread
No insight just what I see. A lot on here don't agree with me but just my opinion. We will find out in a couple weeks. In the meantime he needs to rest that arm. He looked tired toward the end of the season. He's a power pitcher, he throws close to 100% every time. He pitched a combined 55innings in the previous 3 years combined. This year 90 I thinkappstate24 wrote: ↑Sun May 28, 2023 9:27 amAny insight on Xander’s future? Obviously we won’t know for sure until after the draft.

Portal portal portal!!!
Loved seeing this megathread grow. The original idea was to have one running thread that gets 20-30-40 pages large so people would have one more indication that momentum is building rather than 55 sparsely commented on game threads throughout a season. It worked. It’s growing year over year.
College baseball power is shifting south east. When college baseball stadiums around the region start picking up the college football atmosphere…look out.
