OT and not worthy of a thread, but I am hearing this 4-star recruit is in Corvallis today: https://sports.yahoo.com/footballrecruiting/football/recruiting/player-Lavan-Alston-145904
Not to beat a dead horse, but this is one position we should be able to recruit elite talent.
While it’s a pipe dream to think he’ll sign, at least Riley is pursuing a higher caliber of athlete. Sometimes a blind squirrel finds a nut.
But then we knew this a week ago.
https://twitter.com/GregBiggins/status/457301628467441664
We also offered some 5’6″/150# JUCO kid from Faulkner U, Moses Mayes, yesterday… so said he.
But then he also told a beat writer for UCONN football that he committed to them last night. But then UCONN football says they have no commitments, and this Mayes kid isn’t on their radar.
So I’m doubting OSU offered.
It really is not uncommon for some top level talent to check out the program in the Spring and Summer. Many make trips up here and check out both schools, and have been now for the past five years. What is uncommon is if any of them have interest in us in the Fall.
OT. Most expensive joint ever?

Waaaaayyy OT…
Take a look at the Kindle price:

FTD.
That’s all I got.

Well said.
I hope the weather holds. Glad these are televised but delayed games always wreak havoc with tv schedules.
The radar looks clear at the moment. 40% chance of rain on Sat and 60% on Sunday.
Go BEAVS!
read between the lines
Eventually, he stopped fretting over a fan base’s wishes. He concentrated on his game. He thought about the basketball IQ he hopes to develop, about the passing skills he plans to hone.
Mounting losses were a factor. After growing conditioned to expect wins at Jersey City’s famed St. Anthony High School, Cooke felt unsettled ending his first college season with defeats in eight of his final 11 games.
“I know I’m far from a finished product,” said Cooke, who started the Beavers’ last 18 contests. “I know I need to improve my game, and I just wanted to put myself in a situation in terms of learning and making myself better.”
In other words, I want to go somewhere that I’m going to get taught those skills by a better coaching staff where we have an opportunity to win. And that isn’t at Oregon St.
Yet baldy continues to sit on his fat ass and do nothing. Worthless AD

Way OT, I’ve got some fuckng critter running wind sprints in the joists between the main floor and the upstairs. House was built in ’23 so I’ve had other critter issues, but this is a new one. Any suggestions?
Toss in a hungry housecat?
throw some poisoned food in there. But then you’ll have to deal with the corpse. Is it accessible? If so, trap the fucker then kill it. They’re gettin in there somehow so you’ll have to find where and seal it up.
Can’t figure out where they are getting in. Checked everywhere.
my guess is it’s a squirrel. You’d be surprised at how small of a hole those bastards need to get in there.
And if the house was built in ’23 – you probably have wonderful trees close in – technically, Minnesota doesn’t have flying squirrels but amazing how far they leap – right onto BG’s roof and, yes, wsn is correct -the smallest space provides entry.
Move, Minnesota is a great place to be leaving.
I think I will try the cat thing first. The Twin Cities are a great place to live. Angry will back me on that. Come out for the Rodent Bowl and see for yourself.
BG — use Dcon. It kills em but as I understand it, dehydrates em first and the corpse mummifies. No smell.
BURN THE FUCKING INFESTED PLACE TO THE GROUND
Should’ve scored more than one there, really miss Keyes in the 5 hole.
Thought the same thing.
Horton looks like he is pregnant with triplets. Duck uni’s are butt ugly.
Has Horton always had that huge of a gut or is Phil Knight’s money providing multiple “Izzy’s opportunities” for George? He looks like the Phil Fulmer of college baseball.
Ben gets out of the t2 on a 5-3 GO. Hamilton to Casper….anyone else hold their breath on that one?
I take it back, Hamilton with a very nice grab of a pop bunt for first out in t3
Hamilton with the catch on a pop fly bunt…AWESOME!
Wasted a beautiful double by Conforto.
2-0 on Conforto double.
3-0 Beavs after 6 full.
I gotta take it back again, Hamilton HR in b6.
Announcers giving the ucks quite a bit of shit for their unis… Gotta love it
Wetz with 3 hit shutout through 8. He has got to finish this one doesn’t he?
I know I’ve said it here before…but man, it amazes me how much pure hatred I have the Oregon Ducks.
There is nothing wrong with that. Next to a Beaver win, a Duck loss (in any sport) can turn a crappy day to the positive in a heartbeat! A cannot stand any “I root for the state” bullshit. The Ducks need to lose as much as possible!
Not sure how Ben doesn’t get either the 1-2, or the 2-2 called strike there.
The ump was all over the place with the strike zone.
Ben’s a great competitor. Like the decision to pull him here though.
Two outs to go…c’mon boys lets beat these bums.
Yup, 125 pitches is enough (79 strikes). Once Ben got Yeskie to let him get the K on Chase he didn’t seem to lobby as hard to stay in for Grebeck. It wasn’t easy or pretty, but that is the kind the great ones find a way to win!
Man that is a gutty call.
Oh boy
c’mon schultzy…
Whew! Thanks Schultzie! Great job Wetz. Hamilton with a complete bomb and Conforto was with a good bat.
Whew, thanks Schultz.
Btw, when did carrot top sign with wazzu?
That is one goofy looking kid.
Cougs beat dawgs, Beavs .5 games out of first in the PAC now.
Some borderline bulletin board material from ucks AJ Balta, who went 0 for 4 with two K’s. Balta on Wetzler, “Obviously a great pitcher but not the best that we’ve faced,”
Who knows, maybe the best Balta will face would strike him out all 4 AB’s? Go get him Andrew and Jace! Just play your game and force Balta to deal with it.
The R-G has a writer whose columns I read from time-to-time. I saw this when I was reading the R-G’s write-up about yesterday’s bb game. http://registerguard.com/rg/sports/31421095-81/riley-blah-oregon-state-football.html.csp Same old stuff but I thought it was a good read.
After reading the linked article on FB, I clicked over to the R-G’s story on last nights baseball game. Interesting, they too quoted Balta but left out the part I cited above about Ben being, “…not the best that we’ve faced”.
I missed the game last night due to a work function but plan on being at Goss tonight. I am looking forward to seeing Casey’s roster for tonight. Other than Hamilton, no one at the bottom is producing. What’s the deal with Morrisson? Lack of confidence?
I went to #9 OkState at #10 Texas last night. Great weather, great venue. 6230 in attendance. So twice the seats as Goss, but tickets were also half the price. It was a great game, and i am biased, but i do believe the rankings were correct in relation to okst/texas/osu, imo.
After 6 straight years of losing the CW, Riley ought to be taking the football team to one of these baseball games for motivational purposes.
Anybody know if he ever does anything like this?
I saw Garrett and Cav at a game earlier this season, Parker mentioned Luke Del Rio being at last nights game, but no, I don’t know if Riley has brought his squad to Goss. Seems like a good idea and something that fits Riley’s character…..even more than wearing a Blazer’s jersey!
Didn’t CR bring his guys to a couple WBB games this year?
Whats the weather like in Corvallis. Are they going to get this game in?
Like the lineup tonight. Light rain at game time. The parents in left field sure do know how to party!
not a good start for Moore so far
Throw the ball Logan. That’s a mental error.
how in the fuck was one of the duck runners not ruled out when they were both touching 3rd base?
The bottom of the order is hurting us. Bring in some of the kids off the bench…Mildenberg????
Close play at first
Not looking good.
Man, give this dude some run support! Let’s go, Beavs…six outs to make something happen here!
Moore been very solid after a shakey first 2 innings. Beavs have not been able to string any hits together.
Got to do it here…table’s set, with the right guys coming to bat.
Wow! Davis a sacks full 2 RBI double! Still no outs, get more!
Yeah baby! DD comes through we a bases loaded double! good guys 2, satan 1.
And this is where you need Keyes
Need to just get one in the air…
Jared needs to stay on the bench
Cleavinger’s little outburst upon getting the third out follows some immaturity shown by another uck pitcher last night.
How long do ya leave Moore in with the 3 run lead??
I hate the ducks. Everyone of them, their parents, siblings, cousins, and neighbors.
Back to shutzy again. Come on baby!
College baseball games seem to be so hard to close out sometimes.
No kidding
For shit sake, one out.
Bring the brooms tomorrow, Beavs win 4-2!
Tonight may have been a turning point for Moore……Schultz did a nice job getting ahead in counts, too bad about the HBP…….looking for Reser to settledown next time.
That was a huge, gutsy win. To come through in the B8 like that. These are two very good baseball teams. Even though one of them, I’m sure, is tied to Al Qaeda.
Aaron Fitt tweets that Moore’s velo was 88-90.
Parker says folks are tweeting that Cleavinger yelled into the Beavs dugout during his little hissy fit, anyone have details??
I only had radio too, but Parker also was screaming that Cleavinger didn’t hold the ball long enough and it should not have even been an out. Ducks are just assholes, they can’t help themselves.
Those fidiots that endured last night’s game/monsoon should get free season tickets to football and basketball games, they will sit through anything. JB
Horton forced to apologize for Duck attitude.
http://www.oregonlive.com/ducks/index.ssf/2014/04/oregons_attitude_takes_a_dive.html
Reader comments that Cleavinger loudly dropped an F-U bomb as he left the field after spiking the ball. Also in the comments, Tyson details a little more about what Horton had to say to his ucks.
Anyone else remember Ryon Healy’s temper tantrum after grounding out last year while the dicks were getting their asses handed to them? Yeah. It’s got nothing to do with Whoreton. You stay classy ducks.
That was awesome. Hope to see it again today.
Good luck with that he’s playing minor league somewhere. JB
Meaning from a generic duck. Quack, quack.
B.King in the starting lineup, batting 6 and playing 1b.
Two things from Casey’s pre-game talk with Parker: -once again he mentions how his young guys are getting worn out, mostly mentally (I think) but first year in college ball a lot different from HS.
-kinda classy IMHO, no discussion of the uck temper tantrums or Horton’s apology.
GO BEAVS
Conforto goes yard on first pitch. After 1 it’s 1-0 good guys.
1 run in the first reminds of a slogan from the 11th ACR…………”Find the bastards, then PILE ON!”
Go Beavs, pile on!
Nice launch!
Up 5-0, Fry has at least 6K’s, but there has been baserunners every inning, and his pitch count has got to be high.
Through 5, 85 pitches with 8 K’s. Jace doing well, not great with 2 BB and 2 HBP.
Can’t leave him in too long, gonna need 3 or so innings from the pen.
Absolute chickenshit move by the duck 2nd baseman pulling Hamiltons foot off the bag with his leg after he whiffed on the tag. But what can you expect from the ducks?
I wonder if Balta likes Jace Better?
Yeah, AJ “TheMouth” Balta has done NOTHING yet but flap his uck lip!
7-1 after 6. We should get a look at the pen today. Hope it’s looks better..
Fry at 98 pitches now.
Nice t7 for Fry, now at 112 pitches. Wouldn’t be surprised to see him start the 8th before being replaced; do ya give Reser another go with this lead? Maybe Eden? Got to save Schultz, right?
Good decision to pull Fry after 8 full with 120 pitches. Giving Jackson some good work, lets see how he does.
7-1 final for the sweep. And all was right with the world. Eat a bag of shit ducks!
Nice! I was in the air for this one…glad to see the result after touch down!
FTD!
Your eloquence is astounding! A virtual Steinbeck. JB
Nikegon in Eugene in Oregon is a poem, a stink, a grating noise?
Barton is now going to play ball overseas. Another player jumping ship.
Translation: another player wising up.
Yep .. Probably not the last, either. Who wants to play for a bad coach for an empty house.
I’m not sure Barton was going to “play” for an empty house. Maybe sit in an empty house.
this
Nero’s got nutin’ on BDC.
Is anyone really upset at this?
And if he can get a pro team to pay him money to play ball, good for him.
To me its a very good thing. If the players all are behind CR, and support him, its that much harder for him to be shelved. And the players who go, have a shot at a better situation. Win-win…..
Yeah… that’s one thing that confuses me about all the weird whining. Most of it is just projection, to be sure. But if those whiners weren’t trying so hard to manufacture a mountain they might see that the molehill is still there for kicking.
Either Coach Rob gets around to winning next year, and the whining will just continue. Or he doesn’t win and just coaches up to OSU football standards and gets canned.
On a side note, Barton leaving was expected. Robbins is another people talk about as being grumbly over last year’s role.
He is taking a job as Donald Sterling’s personal assistant.
Baseball America has Beavs at 2 this week. Nice bump.
U Dub is hanging tight and USC is looking to be a tough out at their place. Can’t have any off days.
Really need Keyes bat back in the lineup. Go Beavs!
Sweeping Oregon was huge. Big bump in the rpi and keeps a lot of pressure on uw.
The only small concern I have is the bullpen. With the starters pitching well, it leaves little game action for the rest.
Reser did not perform this weekend.
Just dropped by to give you Beavers my obligatory congrats. You have built such a consistent ball club.
You’re welcome.

This year has been a good one but not as good as last year. This team does not seem to click like it did. Next year really scares me. Gone will be Conforto-dradr, Keyes-draft, Wetzler-draft, Shultz-draft, Peterson-graduate. Ruili-graduate. And I would be shocked if Fry and Davis do what Boyd and Wetzler and Shutlz did and pass on the draft. Fry will be an early draft pick but Davis stock has dropped a lot. He should return after seeing what Jake Rodriguez is going through this year. Any comments on the draft or 2015 team?
Ok great now Barton is gone too. He sucked but at least had experience. Now CR will have to face a massive rebuilding job with one foot out the door, and over a half decade of underachieving play to try to sell to kids? Good luck! Hopes for a 15- win season just flew out the window. Now more like 6-8 wins next season tops. We maybe even go winless the whole way vs conference teams again. SHIT!!!!!! GREAT JOB INKING THAT EXTENSION BDC, NOW WE WILL BE SIGNING THE LITTLE SISTERS OF THE POOR FOR FOUR MORE YEARS BEFORE WE CAN GET A COACH THAT KIDS MIGHT ACTUALLY WANT TO PLAY FOR!!! AND UNTIL THEN WE GET TO PAY TO WATCH A COMPLETE SHIT SHOW TEAM AND COACH…. BDC SHOULD HAVE TO FIGHTJOHN CANZANO FOR BIGGEST SLEEZE BAG THIS SIDE OF THE ROCKIES! I HOPE CANZANO WOULD ALSO BE WOUNDED AND LEFT IN AN UNCOMFORTABLE STATE AFTER THE MELEE. BDC VS CANZANO. THERE ARE NO WINNERS.
AND I CAN’T BELIEVE THE OTHER NEWS ABOUT RUEKE AN CO. START A THREAD ON THAT EVEN THOUGH JACK HATES WBB.
