Compare legacies ... Cruz, Fox, Gray, Fazio/Proctor, Baker, others? Are Berkman and the Bakers in the same legacy group since Berkman is a brother-in-law of the brothers Baker?

This is great pick up here. Santos is a stud lefty. Pope is earning his money. That 2019 class has some serious arms in it....from both sides...

I'm not as worried about the offense - Gneiting will get more PT in 2018 and he'll do fine. And then I think 1 or 2 of the freshmen besides Cruz (maybe Aviles and Cox?) will be immediate contributors.

Agree x 100

I think Aviles can be an immediate contributor offensively, BUT where exactly is he going to play with DiCaprio at catcher and Dunlap our everyday DH (which he should be from the get-go)? I think he's too short to play 1B, no?

Bagwell seemed to be an okay 1st baseman at a generous measured 6 foot even.

RE: 2017 Baseball Recruiting
It sounds like Colby Feris committed to UH. I don't know if we were recruiting him but considering his dad (Chris) played baseball (and coached for Graham) at Rice, and his mom (Lacey) played basketball at Rice, I hope we offered him.

Hmmm. Perhaps someone who always wanted Rice, but needed to get his grades up before Rice could offer him?

Why is there a question mark after the #GoOwls?

P.S This is not a serious question.

His online profile suggests he is an outstanding student.

The tweet itself has an Owl emoji--somehow I guess it shows up as a question mark in text?

Yep. That's what happened.

I just copied his tweet into a reply here ... and in the preview, I saw an owl -- although a different owl image than was on his tweet. But when I posted the reply, the image became a question mark.

Appreciate everyone's input and effort towards this!

I just found it amusing when I read it over here. Got a good lil' chuckle.

Not sure if he's been listed as a recruit yet or not but Ben Content, a RHP/UT is transferring to Concordia Lutheran to play high school baseball his senior year. He's a 2018 Rice commit, and early leader in the Best Name category.
