The roster has to be 39 total for the season (35 + the 4 seniors that qualify for the extra COVID year). With the listed roster at 44, that puts us at 5 over. There are rumblings that there are a few season ending injuries that have happened so they can be removed but stay with the team and rehab. This would help explain why the roster still says 44 for the time being.

Agree with most except with what you have except Lloyd playing over McPherson. Lloyd is a Top 100 recruit, we'll try and get him time. Lawrence gets in the rotation if Tominaga has the same struggles from three as last year. Also Breidenbach starting with Gary subbing for him off the bench.

According to this article, Tyler Martin has left the team. Our relief pitcher with the most innings pitched - not ideal. https://nebraska.forums.rivals.com/threads/baseball-tidbits-tyler-martin-no-longer-with-the-team-matthews-update.324187/

From this same local media member, he is now saying Armon is not being considered for a position according to his sources. It will be interesting to see if Fred or Armon decide he should stay regardless. https://www.stltoday.com/sports/college/mizzou/five-thoughts-on-new-mizzou-basketball-coach-dennis-gates/article_b941265e-9c1a-5d8a-a2ca-e8db5efa2bdb.html?utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter&utm_campaign=user-share

All three games are being streamed on FloBaseball.com (subscription required). NOTE: If you sign up, be advised it defaults to the annual plan. It shows $12.50 a month but this is signing up for the annual plan. Even if you cancel after the month, it will charge you the full annual plan amount of $150. You have to manually switch it to the monthly plan which is $29.99 to cancel with no re-occurring charges.

FYI - the Husker vs TCU baseball series is going to be streamed on FloBaseball.tv so another streaming service to subscribe to for a weekend. (Feb. 25-27)

I completely agree with all the above points on BIG baseball coverage. BTN certainly does a poor job promoting regardless of if they are able to broadcast or not. My comment was solely on television/streaming coverage for the non-conference schedule. I think baseball is underserved across the board as I have not seen any promotion on the ACC/SEC/Pac-12 networks some of which ESPN+ is broadcasting. I'm still bitter only one game this weekend is being streamed by ESPN+.

One of the main reasons that BTN doesn't have it published is that all BIG teams play on the road early on due to weather. BTN only has rights to the home games. I.E. Sam Houston State vs Huskers is at their park so ESPN has the rights. If we want to be bitter, how about ESPN+ only set to stream the Friday night game of the 4-game series of Sam Houston State this weekend? I'm hoping they update to more as it gets closer.

On another message board, while no announcement has been made about his future - he is enrolled at NU according to sources.

Yes, I read somewhere it is Thursday at 2pm. They didn't mention the price.

Just to piggyback off this post. Currently only season ticket holders can purchase - general purchase (non-season ticket holders) start at 10am tomorrow. (Wed) #NCAABaseball Oklahoma City Regional tickets go on sale to the general public tomorrow at 10:00 a.m. LINK: http://orange.okstate.com/ncaabaseball-19/

I checked the UConn local papers and thought this was interesting. As noted above, given how we are against left-handers (Feole), I wouldn't mind this one bit. "Penders said Nebraska (31-22) doesnt run a whole lot and, like UConn, its biggest strength is its pitching staff. Penders is debating whether to start staff ace and potential high MLB draft pick Mason Feole on Friday against Nebraska, or hold him off for Game Two."

The recent podcast TM did with Jeff Goodman - talks about his future - sounds like he is going to take a year off and then try and get back to coaching. Interesting listen. https://hwcdn.libsyn.com/p/8/3/6/83614988c284fcb0/Good_N_Plenty_w_Jeff_Goodman__Tim_Miles_4-30-19.mp3?c_id=41170925&cs_id=41170925&expiration=1557638492&hwt=5366e8e851860abad1d93c487a35bac1

You're totally right on Pollard. Thank you for bring that up (makes me feel better)!

We need to lose on Sunday. If we don't then Moos needs to still come out with the details. The longer this drags on, the more chance there is for something to go wrong.

What are the radio stations or ways everyone has found to best match the radio broadcast to the television broadcast? I would rather listen to the radio/internet audio, however don't like when it doesn't match the timing of television. Any recommendations would be appreciated!

Last year single game tickets went on sale November 1st. It will probably be a week earlier or so this year with the basketball start date moved a week. They wait a pretty long time to see if they can get as many season ticket buyers as possible. You can always check Stubhub or other sites from season ticket holders who have already put up games for sale.

Jordan Larson used to go by Jordan Larson-Burbach. In her Wiki entry, it says she was married to Luke Burbach. Did she get divorced? Just a random question of the reason for the name change.

The full link when you click on it says at the end: mcveigh-to-pursue-pro-career-in-australia So it doesn't look like he is transferring to another college. It will be interesting if Copeland also decides to leave for pro ball (European), we suddenly become thin at the 4 spot.

Every team has a few of those in their schedule. We had the opportunity for a top non-con schedule: Kansas Creighton Boston College St. Johns (Predicted to be a NIT or NCAA team before injuries) UCF ((Predicted to be a NIT or NCAA team before injuries)) *If we had won the UCF game we would have played West Virginia, Missouri both Top RPI teams in the holiday tournament. The problem was not our schedule, it was that we didn't win any of them (besides BC)

In case anyone is feeling bad for Northwestern with the injury: Last year this same exact thing happened to Nebraska against them. It was the first full game that Morrow was injured last year (played at PBA) when we were 3-0 in conference at the time. We lost in a close game. Odd how things work out. I am happy for McIntosh that it won't keep him out long-term.

This is good news! Just for context, Iowa State was picked 9th in the 10 team Big 12 pre-season poll. I do think they will finish higher than that though.

We need to hope for an easier first two games (i.e. Rutgers and Penn State) the first week in December in case Copeland doesn't get the NCAA waiver to play right away.

I wish his 3-point % was better. This probably speaks to the fact that we have 5 scholarships (counting the 2 in 2017) unfilled for next year without a commit yet.

He transferred to Boston College, who we play this year, so we'll see him at PBA.
