How does Murray State do it???

Murray State making it to Omaha is one of the best stories in college sports. This is their stadium it holds 800 people. Their head coach Dan Skirka literally cuts the grass.

The after game interview of the Murray St coach is amazing. Sign him up to lead this program. Absolute leader. (Yes, I’m sure he’ll have a lot of interest)
 






Has anybody seen a list of Gophers playing in summer leagues? I just looked through the news section on the Gopher’s website and didn’t see anything

Minnesota native, pitched 11.2 inning this year with a 23.14 ERA, no that's not a typo. Hoping he's coached up, he must have stuff if he's got interest from Mizzou and still Minnesota.

He (along with all of Mizzou) had a really tough season. 11 appearances and only 2 innings where he didn't give up a run. Had a good run in the Iowa JUCO's. Stat wise he's similar to some of our freshman arms in the bullpen. Here's hoping he gives us a little extra depth that we didn't have this year and can be called upon to extend some weekends.

The last few years they have not been publishing this until July - more of an 'update' than 'here is where they are playing'. I am guessing the reason is the transfer portal.

That's a great pickup. Went from 10 appearances as a freshman to only 3 his year. Stat wise his resume is great. Was his decrease due to injury or new coaching staff? Either way, looks a lot like a Selvig type of transfer which we definitely need.

Saw he had an oblique injury this season.
Another addition as well RHP Marcus Kruzan from St. Thomas

Mcdevitt needs some arms with some actual experience. They don’t develop kids well enough to get guys that have thrown less than 10 innings. The young returners better be ready to throw a lot next year.

Are you saying they should have passed on Morton? Couldn't disagree more if that is what you are getting at. They had some solid adds in the portal last year Selvig looked pretty solid before trying to pitch through injury and ultimately having to be shut down but had barely thrown at Texas. Sperry was a reliable piece this season. Urban came along nicely late in the season as a freshman. Both Gregory and Kruzan threw a lot of innings this year and come in with experience.

We will see. Could use some more position players as well
 


Is this summary of portal activity correct so far?

Leaving:
Drew Berkland, OF (Signed with Notre Dame)
Kyle Remington, RHP (Signed with Illinois)
Noah Rooney, LHP (Signed with Notre Dame)
Kris Hokenson, OF
Jack Mosh, INF
Preston Leon, OF
Hunter Cook, RHP
Simon Skroch, LHP
Parker Lewin, OF

Arriving:
Isaac Morton, RHP (Texas A&M)...2 years left
Marcus Kruzman, RHP (St Thomas)...2 years left
Ben Gregory, RHP (Maryville, D2)...1 year left
Josh Kirchhoff, RHP (Iowa Central JUCO, Mizzou)...likely 1 year left but with JUCO, you never know
Davis Hamilton, INF (North Dakota State)...1 year left
Ty Allen, OF (Belmont)...2 years left

So far it would seem we did a decent job at replacing Remington and getting some more experienced pitchers.
Hamilton brings a nice bat but doesn't quite replace Berkland.

If I'm missing anyone let me know. I don't use X that much so I rely on this board for most of the info.
