@yankees28plz@dubv01@mountaineerjdub All good, brother. Losing kids to the draft is a gift and a curse. Some of the guys Mazey brought in that “skipped” the draft, turned out to be a bust here (McCormick, Keels).
Rarely are the most gifted individuals wired the way it takes to make it here. Excited for the ride.
@drjohnnyfair@doneagain73@CFB_Pat Doc, what collegiate tournament reseeds? You’re acting entitled. I didn’t think SEC teams complained this much. You won your games. Keep it moving.
Thinking of Mike Patrick today…
From Clarksburg, West Virginia and one of the most iconic voices of the College World Series. You know he’s smiling down seeing the Mountaineers punch their ticket to Omaha.
@drjohnnyfair@CFB_Pat So do you want re-seeding in the NCAA basketball tournament too? Georgia and WVU have handled business. The tournament is unbiased. Good luck in Omaha.
@dubv01@mountaineerjdub Yeah, but the better the program gets, the more that will happen. See: Lawrence Butler from the Athletics. Law was one of the first I remember of Mazey/Sabins recruits that got poached by MLB.
@indywvu_jim@mountaineerjdub Sabins has been on record that he was closing the deal with Chansen Cole on the road during the Clemson regional last season. I am sure they are hard at work.
1st time we played WVU on campus @ Hawley field the dugouts fit about 15 guys, no bathrooms, guys in full uni lined up with the fans at the porta potties. Press box was like broadcasting in a duck blind. Guy was push mowing his yard behind our dugout. Couldn’t believe it was D1.
Congrats to West Virginia, heading to Omaha for the first time in program history. The program-building job by Randy Mazey and Steve Sabins and the rest of the staff up there has been one of the most remarkable college baseball stories of this era. They finished it emphatically.
If you’d have told me back in these days that West Virginia would one day make it to Omaha I would’ve called you insane, but here we are! Haven’t seen the fanbase this united in ANYTHING in a good 15 years!
The Mountaineers are heading to the College World Series! LET’S GO! #WVU
