Hope the boys jump out on aggie early and cruise to the finals today. Little nervous with Sandlin starting today.
Hopefully he can come through and pitch well like the TAMU kid did yesterday that got smoked by OU earlier in the tourney. Gave up 7 runs in less than two innings vs. the Sooners, and threw 7 shut out innings yesterday. Looking for Sandlin to do the same thing today vs. Aggot.
I don't know if OU is quite good enough to win it all, but I believe they can. Let's hope Arky beats ole miss and both teams use up their best starters before facing OU. I'm happy for OU to get any advantage.
The article says Lincoln TBOW has hinted that the reason he moved on is the athletic dept spending wasn't the same for him as it has been for Brent. The article's author says it's all for the SEC move, and the only difference between spending for TBOW and Venables is on support staff.
I think the original point is accurate, but not because they wouldn't have spent the money for TBOW. I think it's because Brent Venables came in with a specific, direct plan and vision for the future of the program, a plan that Lincoln just didn't have and wouldn't be able to articulate. I think Lincoln was all in the moment. He was about his offense and recruiting and coaching games, and hoping that would win the day (hope is not a strategy!!). Venables has a much broader, more detailed view that starts with the defense. Brent has been at a level TBOW never has and probably never will be. TBOW would have been a perfect WAC coach back in the day when Lavell Edwards' BYU teams and Joe Tiller's Wyoming teams would shoot it out.
