Some cool stuff happening like getting a basketball guy from the MAC, our baseball team losing, portal transfers, etc.
At least we have a thread that will load faster. As Beav fans these days, we have to appreciate minor victories.
Baseball is down to #5, the WBB team is falling apart, Spring Football is about to start up again.
Are you done caring? Has the almighty dollar ruined it for ya?
Let’s consider the reasons folks take an interest in Beaver athletics and college sports in general; is it because:
1-it’s YOUR school, darn it!
2-you like watching payers develop both as people and as athletes
3-coaches are fun to second guess
4-some tax money is involved
5-you like the uniforms
6-it’s a social thing; tailgating, drinking, trash talking opponents
7-you’re tired of the drama and $ which IS pro sports
8-sports betting has more appeal than the lottery
9-?
Are those things gone for you?…….talk it over, or go general, after all the last thread is nearly up to 1,000.
Still………..GO BEAVS! ***********I think?
Plenty to discuss with news sure to come for 3 of the Beavs major athletic teams:
1) Baseball faces Mark Banker’s old school, Cal State Northridge, for a 4 game matchup at Goss starting Thursday. Looks to be a better test than the Bisons (maybe better weather, too).
2) WBB gets the first round bye and the return of Bat Woman…err Raegan. Get past Colorado or Oregon on Thursday and likely face Stanford in the semi Friday. What’s it gonna take to end up in the Portland regional for the big dance?
3) FOOTBALL is back. What will we learn about this team, about Bray’s approach, about the style of Heyward and DeVan? Which coach has the biggest challenge this time around? Why?
Always a great time to be a Beav!
Have at it, guys. I’ll be gone for about 3 weeks on a bikepacking trip/vacation in Arizona. Baseball will be heating up in that time period, so might as well make this a baseball thread in addition to a general thread. I’ll be in Tuscan, so about 2.5hrs from the Beavs…probably won’t be able to make it, but I’m going to keep it in mind. Anyone going?
If anything interesting pops up, admins feel free to start a new thread, but short of that, old down the fort!
Go Beavs.
Keep it going…
