The Ohio State Baseball (Official Thread)

Disgusting ending to an otherwise very improved season.

The offense was a hack fest but the home plate ump wasn't doing any favors. scUM pitcher got constant questionable strike calls whole our pitcher constantly got squeezed into walks. A definite case of a conference making the call to do all they can to try to push another team into the tournament

'27 OH CG Kameron Mercer (Cincinnati Verbal)

I kinda had a hunch. Will see if it sticks but the new staff went all in here and made him their priority target.
Good call on your hunch. Hes a massive get, even bigger than Abaev last year. And id dare say by a lot, because hes a local kid.

I hoop with a guy who coached Kam when he was younger in AAU. He really cares about him, says he is a great person, is respectful and works hard. Said he didn't then, and maybe still doesn't yet have, a consistent jumper. Having watched some of his games this season, I would agree with that assessment. Kam didn't play very well in the state title game (but he was probably drawing the opposing team's best defenders). We will see if he lives up to his lofty ranking in college and beyond. And if he does play well right away, it's not like the school where you start out is the school you stay with these days anyway.
i saw Kam play several times this season(notably the Lakota west game) and i came away many times thinking, with how highly rated he is, he plays too timid. He should’ve been in attack mode all season. His Size and athleticism alone should’ve gotten him 23-25pts/gm and 5rebs. Tyson from Lakota West was a better player imo. Would love to see them both stay home

Deciding When to Retire

Hey ! Wake up.... Just because you think you have, or will have in ten years, enough money to survive on for the rest of your lives it's not over by a long shot.
The manner in which the costs of living increases every year may or may not exceed your actual and or projected income.
I've been retired for 14 years now and the difference between having plenty of money and breaking even gets smaller every year.
So, a word to the wise, set your self up for the long haul and plan appropriately.
I, myself still have enough to live well for a few years to come before I will have to start dipping into the investments I have.
The investments are from inheritances.
Too bad you didn’t get the OSU President job.
