Did I miss it? National signing day was on November 8th, exactly 3 weeks ago today. I haven't seen any baseball bios. Our PAC-12 brethren all had their class bios up within a day or two following NSD. No official OSU class announcement, no bios, just some graphics on the baseball twitter feed.
It's a hungry world out here . . . throw us a bone.

Yeah, I was wondering the same thing. Too many distractions maybe?

Smith didn't take our SID group to MSU did he?

Smith didn't take our SID group to MSU did he? at this point, I assume they stripped all the copper or of the building when they left. But yeah, give us some info, and shine a light on the new guys coming in. |

I’m sure they got caught up in the coaching change stuff and now have to push out a bunch of football content. Wait and see.

Hank Hager is the SID for football, volleyball & baseball. No doubt he has his hands full right now.

I'm sure there is a reason for the long delay and in terms of priority, it may be way down the list. However, most programs build and prepare their bios from the time of commitment, it is not a "wait and see who we signed, and then construct the bios" deal.
It's for the fans and baseball followers, which would explain the low sense of urgency in posting it.

FWIW: Following NSD for baseball on Nov.8, J.Smith was our coach on 11-11 against Stanford, on 11-18 against Washington and on 11-24 against Oregon.
Football "stuff" didn't start until J.Smith resigned last Saturday, 11-25. Prior to that, the SID office had no knowledge of Smith's pending departure. During the period between 11-8 and 11-24, baseball bios should have appeared.
Gotta be another reason.

Haven't we been slow on rosters the last couple years? Seems like bios would also be that way.

Or just waiting for the big signing day dinner to announce stuff? Does seem like you could maybe go ahead and put that stuff out there online, but what do I know? |

What's really perplexing is they had a nice fall roster up for the first time in a long while and they were quick to get the '24 schedule up on the official site. So, why the long delay on the bios? Good heavens that could be up to 40% of our roster by January.
Beaver nation is starving for those bios, the stats, coach's comments, etc.

Why not just email them?

I'm afraid and e/mail would get the same response . . . crickets.
After 34 days, one might surmise they obviously have a reason for not publishing it.
