There is a thread on sicEm365's baseball board. Also some chatter on their premium board where a mod confirmed he was dismissed from the team. Some more chatter on premium, but I'll let you decide if you want to pay $1 for a week of their premium content

Do you have a link about him being dismissed? Everything I see just says he entered the portal in early June.


It has been kept quiet and Baylor players have been instructed not to talk about it. So I doubt that there is a link.

Bailey also started 1 game in the Cape this summer and was pulled in the second inning due to an apparent injury. Hopefully it was just precautionary but he had walked like 5 guys, including one with the bases loaded. He's no longer on the Brewster Whitecaps roster so it seems his time in the Cape is over this summer. Something else to track on this guy although I'm sure our coaches did the due diligence there.

I haven't seen anything official either - just saw the chatter here and on premium by 2-3 posters. All I'm saying I'm sure it's been checked out by us and we decided to take him. I'm not concerned.

I'm not saying it wasn't checked out beforehand. I'm sure that it was. I'm just saying it's risky because trouble seems to follow this kid around.

I paid for premium and varsity for entirely too long. If I could block people without paying for 1 star, I wouldn't have this one.

Big loss for us, but you've got to imagine the writing was on the wall after the first game of the Bama series. One of the single worst coaching decisions I've ever seen at any level. Can't imagine that was an easy thing for Luke to stomach. I wish him the best at his next stop.

I think I'm going to see if I have any eligibility left. I wouldn't be able to get a hitter out, but I don't know if we're going to have enough bodies on our staff at this point to make it though a weekend.

Can't imagine he decided to transfer because of one coaching decision in the first game of the first SEC series we played. Especially since he waited this long after the portal opened. But then again, who knows anymore.

Got scared off by our two portal adds and their >6 ERA's (and both coming off injuries and one with apparent character issues).

Agreed, I'm sure another team came to him and offered him something he wanted (scholarship, NIL, starting position) and it was enough for him to hit the portal.

Lot of hand wringing here over Luke Jackson. I agree that I would rather him have stuck it out here, but he has had 3 years here and has yet to carve a consistent role out for himself.

The potential is clearly there, but after completing his RS Sophomore year he hasn't showed any level of consistency. Maybe he was frustrated, but he also has only pitched 26.2 innings total in his time here (8.1 of which in conference play). He very well could be wanting a fresh start to have a better promise of a bigger role.

HE had great difficulty throwing strikes. If you can't throw strikes when you have to, and locate pitches (no control), you can't pitch. That was the problem in top 9 in game 1 MO, and then Earley not recognizing it soon enough to pull him.
I hate tu. It's in my blood.

Your going to judge his control off of 18.1 mostly high pressure innings. How many times did Earley throw him in with the bases loaded and no outs usually because another reliever like Frescorn, Earleys pet project that was an abomination until Hoover, made a mess of things. Yes I know Jackson caused is own issues at times but it is alot harder to throw strikes when you trying to chip edges because anything put in play scores a run.

Honestly this team was so bad that outside of Grahovac, Sorrell, and TK I'm not all that concerned about players leaving. I'm sure I'm missing another player or two that we really don't want to lose, but my point remains the same.

Back to back seasons of missing the tournament is unthinkable for a program like A&M. A random down year can be excused, but not two in a row.

Our pitching staff for next year, so far, is looking pretty rough. We had better secure a few more key arms or we'll be getting shelled in 2026.

Yes I am. You obviously have an anti Earley bias.

So by that rationale, a guy gets a pass on control issues bc he had control issues in pressure situations…which arguably is the most important time to have control??

Said no baseball coach ever.

In 3rd year in a program and you throw 97 and havent established any sort of consistency or defined role…I'd say yeah it's an issue.

Would I prefer he stay? Sure bc we need arms and he throws 97 and maybe can figure it out. But to give a guy a pass on struggling to throw strikes bc he was in pressure situations is an odd take. Players typically are judged how they do in pressure situations. Mark that one up as another irrationals Earley criticism "brought pitcher into game in tough situations".

Pretty sure Schloss brought in Evan A in crappy situation after crappy situation and was lights out. Somehow it seems to be possible to throw strikes in the heat of the moment.

I don't think any of us can know what's going to happen either way. But there is a strong argument that last season's team was the best and most talented that Earley will ever coach. Make of that what you will.

That's a fair argument to make, but injuries did play a big part. There is also a strong argument that Earley was at his least amount of knowledge on how to run a program effectively.

This next team, barring some sort of crazy injury luck, will have plenty of enough talent to make the tournament or even possibly obtain a regional host spot. We just need Earley to learn and improve on where he went wrong as the head coach. That is more than possible.

And how many times did he manage to get out of those situations? Pretty consistently he failed to. He also led us to those situations at times. If you can't afford to pitch someone in high pressure innings, then they aren't that important of an arm.

I wanted him to stay. Losing him is a bummer, but you can't consider him some proven arm. You wanted to keep him for his potential, not for what he has showcased to this point. Having control issues after 3 years does not have any promise he will figure it out in year 4.
