    IU Baseball vs Butler - March 28-30, 2024

    We lose the opener of the series 6-2. We just can't get a starting pitcher to give us any meaningful innings. Decker-Petty started and only made it through 2 innings giving up 3 runs on 4 hits, 1 BB and 2 WP. Rushing came in for 2 innings and allowed another 2 runs followed by Vogel, Keyster & Shaw. Collectively they gave up 10 hits 2 BB; 4 WP and 1 HBP. According to @ashifron Butler pitchers allow nearly double digit runs per game and allowed less than 6 just twice. After this game it's now three times. We managed just 6 hits, Taylor our only batter with at least 2.

  6. It's never too early. Ya think there's already a connection established via our new assistant coach? Jacob Polacheck -- UConn and Indiana are starting to show interest in 2023 prospect Donald Villard as well as 2024 prospects Caleb Middleton and John Kallon. Not much out there on either player. NERR: Caleb Middleton is a 6'8" forward who attends New Hampton HS in New Hampton, NH. Not much out there but this snippet from New England Recruiting Report -- Caleb Middleton, Dover - Although Middleton is currently out with a broken arm, he was in attendance at Saturday’s Elite 75 and expects to be an immediate impact player in the NHIAA this upcoming season. At six-foot-seven, Middleton can play inside and out, and has a frame to keep growing. NERR: Caleb Middleton, who will be joining New Hampton’s class of 2024 next year, was the first player to catch our eye. He has a terrific early combination of size, skill, and fluidity. He runs and moves well for someone his age who is already every bit of 6-foot-9. The versatility in his skill set is very intriguing as well. He can step out and make threes, put the ball on the floor, and score inside with baby hooks and good footwork. In short, he’s bound to be one of the top early prospects in next year’s freshman class. John Kallon is a 6'3" PG from City on the Hill (MA) Charter School in Boston. https://www.zagsblog.com/2020/08/19/class-of-2023-john-kallon-hoping-to-take-two-visits/ NERR: In the class of 2023, John Kallon was particularly impressive. Again, he’s far from a finished product, but he’s a budding big guard with good size, pace, and smooth playmaking potential. He’s going to have to keep developing his shooting mechanics and learning how to play the point guard position, but his natural ability is clear and he showed some flashes of high-level plays throughout the practice.

    We're really fortunate on btb to have a number of posters who have connections. They don't post often but when they do, they have a very high accuracy rate with the info they provide.

    Fire Coach Woodson

    The assistants did the leg work but Woody made the decision on who he was interested in and that's why out of 31 offers we only focused on 3 players and not a wider net. 3 was all Woody cared about. The assistants did their job.
