We didn't let game 1 beat us the problem is against a team with the talent of LSU you can't outplay them 3 games in a row. And we basically outplayed them 3 games but let the 1st one get away (and they obviously made plays). You just can't do that and we did. Too bad.
Question -> when are we going to get the athletes like Drew Stubbs, Peoples, again? We played above our head b/c we just don't have that type of talent right now.
Baseball recruiting has to be the hardest, if you go after the best kids you risk them going pro. With 400 rounds in the MLB draft, you never know when a kid is going to leave. Also, the limited schollies mess you up.
Harsh reality has set in, and it hurts. This team showed so much heart from the conference championship to the regionals, and now. Thanks guys for giving me a lot to cheer about this season.
Now, the worst part of the year begins tomorrow. No UT football, basketball or baseball. All I have to cling to is preseason mags and watching last year's football season on DVD. I will sign off by stating...
This Texas team though is a young team that will have a great shot next year to take one more step. A lot of young pitchers who have a lot of experience now in big games.
I can't stand their fans or their players, but the LSU coach is a class act. If you are going to lose I'd rather lose to the best and not a prick like Murphy.
No shame in this series loss between two very evenly matched teams.
