On this episode of the D1 Daily, Burkie and Roons revisit a debate from last fall about which programs would win at least one CWS title in the next five years. The pair start the episode by noting Oklahoma’s 11th-place finish in the SEC and discussing how that result both validates betting on the SEC and encourages the rest of the country. They argue Oklahoma’s toughest threat came from Georgia Tech and point to other non-SEC near-misses like North Carolina, Coastal Carolina, Florida State, and UCLA as evidence that a breakthrough is possible outside the league.

The conversation also examines why Georgia, despite recent dominance and a top-eight seed run, hit a wall in Omaha, comparing their missing star performances to 2024 Tennessee’s leadership and unconventional pitching. They close by discussing how roster construction has changed dramatically in recent years and spotlight the unique role of Tennessee opener Chris Stamos.

On this episode of the D1 Daily, Burkie and Roons react to the first weekend of college football and use it to highlight parallels with college baseball. They start with how limited fall scrimmages can mislead evaluations compared to real games, and why joint practices or preseason tune-ups could be valuable. They discuss “mind palaces” built in the offseason, overreactions to early results, and how coaches’ real trust shows up once lineups, rotations, and play-calling are revealed. They compare program arcs and “high water marks” through examples like Clemson–Dabo Swinney and Texas Tech–Tim Tadlock, and debate whether first impressions are clues or conclusions using A&M baseball and Michigan football analogies. They also touch on hype expectations, quarterback/pitcher projection, and the impact of home environments and fan emotion.

On this episode of the D1 Daily, Burkie and Roons continue their top transfer hitters discussion by evaluating several impact bats in the D1Baseball Top 10 Transfer Rankings and how their underlying data might translate at new programs.

They discuss Jamie Laskofski’s move from William & Mary to North Carolina, noting strong barrel and contact indicators with potential power growth for a shortstop. They break down catcher Nate Savoie’s transfer to Texas A&M, highlighting elite exit velocities, high barrel rate, and prolific home run production. The show also covers Mikey Bell (Gonzaga to Georgia) as a doubles-heavy extra-base threat who could add homers in a better park, plus Washington’s Jackson Hotchkiss heading to Arizona State with top-tier hard-hit metrics despite an uneven year-to-year profile. They close on Travis Sanders (Baylor to Tennessee) as a productive hitter with swing-and-miss and ground-ball concerns, and Jake Hanley (Indiana to Georgia) as a physical left-handed bat with plate discipline and upside for a power jump.

On this episode of the D1 Daily, Burkie and Roons compare the SEC of the late 1990s/early 2000s to today’s conference. They describe a league that once had clearer tiers—especially split by divisions—versus the current SEC’s depth where nearly every team can contend.

They discuss key program shifts, including Ole Miss’ rise under Mike Bianco, South Carolina’s build under Ray Tanner, and how Tim Corbin’s transformation of Vanderbilt helped force the league to elevate its commitment. Burkie also shares a vivid memory of Skip recalling a 1999 Tennessee-LSU series and closes with details on facing Golden Spikes winner Kip Bouknight.

On this episode of the D1 Daily, prompted by the recent loss of Skip Bertman and a discussion of coaching legacy, Burkie and Roons debate the college baseball “Mount Rushmore” of Rosenblatt-era coaches.

Burkie & Roons agree three picks are obvious—Rod Dedeaux (10 national titles at USC), Augie Garrido (five titles at Fullerton and Texas), and Bertman (five titles at LSU). But then, the pair has to sift through contenders for the fourth spot using College World Series wins, national titles, and broader impact. Candidates for the fourth and final spot include Ron Fraser, Cliff Gustafson, Mark Marquess, and Mike Martin (noted for 2,029 wins but no title), plus others like Jerry Kindell, Jim Brock, and Ray Tanner. Who's on your Mount Rushmore?
