Two names so far looking for a new place to play next season.
Eli Tidwell
Miles Curley
Tidwell -- good player, albeit an absolute strikeout machine.
Curley -- also a good player, wish he hadn't been injured on and off all year.
I wonder about Biddick, Rogers, Smith? Those are guys not listed as seniors, although the guys listed as seniors might have eligibility left for all I know. I genuinely do not know anymore. I just assume everyone can come back until they eventually don't.
I also wonder about Cummings? He wasn't much with the bat but it was a pleasure watching him play third base.
Officially, the NCAA rules state that if you’re in Division I or II, you have four seasons to play within five years from full-time enrollment. Key exceptions are for medical redshirts or hardship waivers which can restore a lost season if an athlete misses a season due to injury. Then there's also Covid-19 relief, which should have ended by now I would think.
I also thought that Cummings did a great job at third base.
I know Biddick is playing with Acadiana Cane Cutters, have not heard anything about Rogers or Smith. Yes Cummings is a great defender at third base.
Incidentally, while talking about baseball, UNO officially beat a College World Series team this season (Troy).
Congrats to the Trojans, a 29-loss mid-major that was the last at-large team to get in. I was amazed that the committee selected them in the first place, so a good message gets sent here.

That game against Troy was one of the highlights of the season for me. I'll always remember the ground rule double which erased a sure win, but we got another clutch hit anyway to win 11-10 in 10 innings.
