DressHerInWhiteAndGold: What do you want to hear in CPJ’s HOF induction speech? Folksy stories, bawdy one liners, a rant about Embry Peeples missing that block, anecdotes whilst burning down houses, how much he hates whiners who don’t know the difference between chop and cut blocks?
Ben: I, for one, just want it to be a reel of his best one-liners, similar to what we have set up in the staff Slack channel. Let the self-aware CPJ-bot do the HOF induction speech!
Logan: I want him to talk about some of his favorite players and talk about how he was the best golfer among all head coaches.
Jellopacket98: Apologies if this has been brought up before, but GT’s ERA rankings in the ACC for the past 7 seasons are:
2024: 13 out 14
2023: 13/14
2022: 13/14
2021: 13/14
2020: 10/14
2019: 8/14
2018: 10/14
25 runs in two ACC tournament games to boot. The enemy of great is good, but that’s bad, that’s real bad. How is it possible that we just can’t get any good pitchers to come to Tech?
Logan: baseball is not my expertise, but it seems that we currently have a focus on talented batters and fielders. I will say that baseball is probably the most volatile of the big 3 sports (basketball, baseball, and football). Someone can look like a talented pitcher in high school but not necessarily translate to the next level.
