Being from Cent Florida I don't like UCF. Hope we can take the series. Not a good start in game one. They set their single game strike out record as they fanned 19 Troy batters. Let's rebound and take the next two games. Go Troy!!!

If Troy Athletics had taken the time to search for a Coach rather than the easy, inside hire route, then Tornados hit and Biden won, maybe we'd a won?

Well we battled back to take the series which is the positive. These guys battle. What concerns me is our biggest problem is first game of these series. Our last two opponents Ga Southern and UCF are barely .500 clubs. We lose game one to GSU 8-1 and set the UCF strike out record with 19 in game one. If we can get this corrected we could be a really good ball club. We are 12-10 with the bulk of conference play ahead. Let's get this game one issue corrected and sweep a few conference series

Let's get this game one issue corrected and sweep a few conference series I agree. I think this is the next adjustment Smartt will be making. When the Troy offense slumped a couple of weeks ago, he did some tweaking — namely inserting Jesse Hall into the lineup — and the offense returned to its potential. Ortiz has had some good starts, but he has been wildly inconsistent. He may be headed to the bullpen, because Wilkinson did fantastic in relief of him on Friday.

We need to recruit some better pitchers, or either find a new pitching coach.
I know Matt Hancock helped make Levi Thomas great, but Levi Thomas was pretty good from the get-go TBH. I haven't been impressed with the pitching at all this year, especially considering the depth we have at that position. We're currently #10 of 12 in the SBC in opponent batting average.

We are giving up way to many runs for sure. You aren't going to win to many games giving up 8-10 runs a game

I'm trying to figure out if you are being serious or taking a jab at me. For the record, I don't live remotely close to South Florida but I can tell you Orlando South is the baseball talent here. I was hoping we would sign my cousin in WI (#1 prospect in the state) 95 MPH fastball but sadly he signed with Arkansas (why I don't know, I mean they are only ranked #2 ) and is likely to be a first to second round pick in the draft. But dang!! he would have looked good in a Troy uniform.

We do have Orel Hershiser's nephew on the team. Maybe we could hire Orel as pitching coach.

If we doesn't mind we film games with a 1983 Sony camera and 2004 Motorola flip phone, he would make a great addition in the booth and could coach in the week

Nosebleed taxes, illegals mooching off the system in multitudes, sidewalks full of human excreta, and the worst possible thing that CA OWNS, that airhead Pelosi. BTW, we now have Mr Ho's Buffet back. A former cook opened it recently. Our answer to Chinatowm and international fare!!
