    Pierce sure can scout and recruit good pitching.

    Sean Allen seems destined to be a head coach.

    Somewhere.

    At some point...

    OMAHA!
    2nd time in 4 years (and if we are being honest, we were a serious threat to make Omaha in 2020 prior to Covid killing the season).

    Congrats to Coach Pierce for meeting your base goal of the year: 2 wins at the CWS, or what we call the Aggy medal of achievement.

    Yeah I don’t think Aggie has won two games in one World Series often if not ever.

    Aggy has a grand total of two world series wins in their entire history so yeah Pierce has coached as many wins in a week in Omaha as the entire history of aggy baseball.

    Final four, baby!

    It is always a good season when you can claim that. I hope we make this a great season.

    Its always amazed me how they look at there baseball program as elite… Oklahoma has had more national success as well as other schools in the region like Ok St- TCU/ Rice-Texas Tech and many others.

    Remember when they got uppity about TCU usurping them? Then TCU kept going to the CWS, the last time eliminating Aggy

    My judgment is still out on pierce but he had a great season this year. The kids did respond fairly similarly as in the past in just refusing to lose and it’s always magical to watch. The pitching was outstanding, loved reading miss st.’s board and the fans complaining about how they can’t seem to bring the bats when they face us, duh, great pitching and defense wins championships majority of the time, didn’t work out for us this time but I’m looking for a great season next year, if pierce can’t get into the final four next year it will be a big disappointment.

    I'm disappointed if we don't make Omaha, but I don't agree with that. Baseball is a tough game. We saw what happened to Arkansaw. Teams get hot at the right time, your best pitcher can go down, etc. It's just more difficult to predict than football.

    Yep. It can be a cruel game.

    Get cold for just a few games, you’re out early—-see Arkansas.

    Get hot out of nowhere, and you’re the nation’s darling—see NC State.

    Today is a good day to be a Longhorn, none of us have always made right call and so today for all the haters is a day for grace to all, lets all just be happy the Horns are in Omaha and as a united fan base lets enjoy what will hopefully be an extended trip.:hookem:

    Of the 5 seasons there has been a College World Series contested while David Pierce has been the coach, we have been there 3 times. And the other season we were very much on a path to make it too.

    Mediocrity, my skinny white ***. You're just a blind hater, and it is almost a shame you also get to enjoy the fruits of Pierce's labor.
