Does Arkansas Have Enough Star Power in Lineup?

[@wesdawg96]

This pod is my safe space from the pain of other razorback sports. Keep up the good work!

[@jarongreen6286]

Thank you for the coverage andrew! I became a razorback baseball fan in 2021 and now im a die hard baseball fan. Its my favorite sport.

[@InsideArkansas]

Love to hear it! Even though they fell short in the end, that was a special team and a special season. I bet there a lot of Hog fans who fully became baseball diehards around that same time

[@GrantPatrick]

Love the baseball coverage you do a great job on the insight you provide to us and I love that I’ve got a fellow Farmington guy spreading the Baumbastic message to everyone!

[@raygalles2517]

Thanks again, Andrew. In 4 weeks, I break out a new Hog ball cap for the baseball season. Mid March can not get fast enough for me. NW Arkansas and BW--no finer place to visit.

[@InsideArkansas]

You the man, Ray! Looking forward to it!

Man each new episode that comes out gets me more and more pumped. Keep up the great work. I am one of the ones who thinks we need to incorporate more small ball, but as you’re mentioning. Within reason. If your stars aren’t shining and we are hitting 220 or so as a team. Hey let’s break out a few hit and runs, bunt and steals, but I’m not so far that way saying change the entire dynamic. But when things get tough and slumps come find a different way to get the team going than just ride it out and leaning on a pitching staff. Again, great work Andrew and excited for a season full of Hog Ball coverage.

[@InsideArkansas]

For sure man. I really just wanted to get out in front of this because I think there’s a decent portion of the fan base that really expects Arkansas to have a completely different approach, and I don’t want them to be disappointed when nukes start flying out toward West Fork

Ready for baseball!! Woo Pig Sooie!

Comment for the algorithm! Thanks Andrew.

[@davidhay6235]

You’re doing better than you coworkers because your specialty has not lost a single game this year. :) …Still the best baseball show in Arkansas

[@BryanL.G]

Man I can’t wait for the season!!!!

[@94Hogs]

Razorback fans need a dominate season. DVH watched Tony win one last year. He has to be more motivated than ever. The #1 overall curse is gone. I know better than to get my hopes up but damn it we’ve been a baseball powerhouse for a decade. Go win every damn thing. Thank you for the content Andrew

[@LazyTurtle29]

Thanks for the content Ellis! I look forward to seeing if you redeemed yourself as a ball knower with this one.

[@davidhay6235]

Possibly this team will be better than outsiders think if we have real solid offense from whoever plays first base

[@davidstewart1440]

In DVH I trust. Should be on a coin.

[@TheRMcghee]

I want to see more Iredale but man he looks the part. IMO he bats 3-4 in the lineup. Gorilla ball is a winner and we just haven't had the guys to accomplish it for a couple years. More talent and better hitters will save Thompson.

[@TheRMcghee]

Keep it coming. Great stuff. They struggled at hitting and all people say is HR of bust when we had no power for real. Lack of talent IMO is more the problem and Thompson is responsible for that too. Now if this years team doesn't take a massive leap then Thompson needs to go. IMO this is going to bed a great lineup.

[@InsideArkansas]

Could not agree more. All of the top offenses in the country are power-based. It’s only a problem if you don’t have the dudes to make it work, and Arkansas simply hasn’t had that the last few years. I honestly believe this team will set a new program record for homers.

[@TheRMcghee]

@@InsideArkansas We agree and we agree bunting is NOT what this team will do. I love love love homeruns!

[@brettrobinson2901]

Sounds like what you're saying is that despite his record and experience...is that the last few years is that our Hall-of-Fame coach is being OUTRECRUITED...and maybe outstrategized...maybe DVH went past his prime..😑...don't wanna believe that...😔

[@InsideArkansas]

Don’t know how you got ‘DVH is washed’ from all of that, but sure. Hogs have had an undeniable dip in offensive production, which they’ve overcome with an elite pitching staff. I think this year’s squad is equipped to be more well-rounded

[@brettrobinson2901]

@InsideArkansas Don't think he's washed..but its possible that he is past his sell by date...lots of greats stay too long or just get bored or can't adjust to different eras...not saying that's happened to DVH ...hope not because in my mind NOBODY in the sport of college baseball deserves that one magical season more than Coach Van Horn...he DESERVES his career capper...HELL if that Ole Miss coach got his..I gotta believe that somehow by hook or crook that the RIGHTEOUS GODS OF SPORT will deliver a College World Series Championship unto DVH....gotta believe in what's RIGHT!

[@ryanomac27]

Hope we continue to improve overall athleticism on the team... have dudes like Souza and Aloy, and kjerstad and Martin and Benny.... that makes a team exciting
