On this episode of Sidearm Delivery, Shotgun Spratling brings on someone who has made it a mission to do more than just coach baseball: Kansas head coach Dan Fitzgerald. Coach Fitzgerald joins to not only talk about the success of his Jayhawks’ squad, who are 23-10 (9-3 conference) and have won seven in a row heading into a battle for first place in the Big 12 this weekend, but to also discuss Kansas’ Autism Awareness Game it hosted over the weekend and why the cause has changed the way Fitzgerald coaches. They also discuss Fitzgerald's rise up the coaching ranks, why Kansas has had so much success recruiting junior college players, and more.

Later in the show, we also chat with D1Baseball national analyst and the man who loves to hate your favorite team, Kendall Rogers, about Kansas, their upcoming battle for first place, and the Jayhawks’ standing in the Big 12 pecking order.

On this episode of the D1 Daily, Burkie and Roons discuss more "Hey Now" moments from Week 8. The entire Big 12 was having a "Hey Now" weekend as Kansas turned a ninth-inning rally into a Home Run Derby, and the UCF-WVU series got nutty.

On this episode of Sidearm Delivery, Shotgun Spratling chats with one of the best developers in the game, Mississippi State head coach Brian O’Connor. Shotgun talks with Coach O'Connor about the strong first half his Bulldogs have had in his first season in Starkville, the challenges of knowing when to play young players, and how to thread the needle of when to push players to the edge of their limits versus when to pull back to make sure they are building positive momentum. The pair also discusses O'Connor's move from Virginia to the SEC, the "fun" of roster building in 2026, and more.

Later in the show, Shotgun also chats with D1Baseball national & SEC analyst Mark Etheridge about Mississippi State and how the Bulldogs are shaping up in a wild SEC.
