The Mississippi State baseball team received a tough blow on Thursday when it was announced J.T. Ginn had undergone season ending elbow surgery. Host Justin Strawn looks at what that means for the short term future this weekend against Quinnipiac and what it means for the long term impact on J.T. Ginn and the 2020 Mississippi State baseball season.

Justin also looks at how he thinks the Mississippi State Men’s basketball team will do now that it appears the season is left in a win the SEC Tournament or head to the NIT mentality.
