@38Godfrey This is 100% the correct take

[Ben Spector @bspec21]

@SappOutOfPgh @slmandel I think you’re right but also might be a little wrong. 100% reflection on judges but I would also add could be a reflection on college sports because colleges feel emboldened to come forward with morally dubious lawsuits.

@StephenMoore I don’t know, I’ll take some micromanagement if it means student-athletes can’t bet on their own teams

[Ben Spector @bspec21]

Disgusting. Pretty much gives all student-athletes the green light to bet on their own games/throw games…

NEWS: A judge in district court in Lubbock County, Texas, has granted the injunction requested by Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby. He’s set to be eligible for the 2026 season.

@dominiclisti @drudown1414 I’ll add to this. Schools get choice and then ESPN gives them the thumbs up or down on the time.

@chriskatz1 @MercerBaseball You guys were a phenomenal ball club. Hate that you guys didn’t get a chance to dance and hope this doesn’t impact the upward trajectory of your program—seems like you guys have a special place to play at.

A few weeks ago the Giants beat the Dodgers 29-2… in the Arizona Complex League.

I wrote about what the hell happened and why it’s a symptom of something much bigger going wrong in the low-level minor leagues.

“It’s a total s*** show.”

@jjcoop36 Non-conference RPI was a 49 too. Feels like an at-large team no matter which metric you use.

Middle America families stuck in the biggest Ponzi scheme of all time that is travel baseball.

Baseball needs Legion Ball played at high school fields in t-shirts and gray pants more than ever right now.

@mid_madness 16 of the 29 conference tournaments have been affected by rain somehow so off to a hot start!

Congratulations to the Middletown boys lacrosse team for winning a second consecutive state championship!

We’re also congratulating the Middletown girls lacrosse team, who were Class 1A runners-up.

Amid the plethora of RPI-based midweek cancellations around college baseball, #OkState coach Josh Holliday called for the system to be patched.

“That pisses me off, and if we’re gonna let people (and teams) manipulate a system, then the system sucks, and it needs to be fixed.”

You were awesome, Midweeks. See you next year.

@mlabidsr @BenOnSports @bspector Correct, but moreso styles of jerseys we have retired because of use/wear.

For example we retired this all black set before this season so some of our guys will get those for senior day since they wore them previously.

[Ben Spector @bspec21]

@BenOnSports Of course! Figured most schools would be in our boat with the finite resources they have.
