Hurd was just as bad as last year outside his Omaha run. He’s the same exact pitcher as last year. Not sure why some expected different

he was coming off a back injury last year and he was pitching a lot better down the stretch.

it’s not insane to think a player who go progressively better may actually be better

Omaha pitching makes people forget the season. Every time we make Omaha we have guys play lights out and everyone just expects that to carry over to the next season.

Some Arkansas guy posted in Feb that if Hurd is our ace then we are in trouble and everyone got pissed. It was an honest assessment though.

I admittedly thought he'd be good, but I remember my first moment of concern was seeing his numbers prior to the season. I think his ERA was over 9 if I remember correctly.
