He's most famous for his complete game victory in the championship game of the 2003 College World Series, bringing Rice's first ever team championship to South Main. He was also a three-time All-America and first round draft pick of the New York Mets. He's experienced life in the big leagues and he's working his way back. He'll be checking in with RUBPA all season. He's Philip Humber, aka The Shark.

Mr. Humber has been without internet for a few days now and has asked RUBPA to convey his thoughts. As such, this is kind of an as told to entry.

While individual honors are the farthest thing from my mind (helping the team win and getting back to big leagues are my foremost goals) my being named Pacific Coast League pitcher of the week is further proof - at least to myself - that I've fully recovered from Tommy John surgery. As I've said before I feel as good now as I did at Rice when I got a full week between starts.

It's been great to track the Owls these last few weeks. It looks like they're really hitting their stride going into finals. Man, finals were always so tough. Aside from the difficulty of the exams you really just wanted to keep playing. I bet they'll come out of the finals break without having missed a beat.

Here's to having internet next week!
