Does the USM series deserve an asterisk?

[bulldognation]

If the team manages to start consistently winning? I mean, if Andy really was as distracted in the dugout as is claimed... and the players knew he wasn't focused... how do you not view those three losses differently (provided they do start winning consistently)?

 

[MaroonCrusader]

Well to think about that, we would have to start winning consistently first.

2-0 in the post Cannz era.

 

[RocketDawg]

In a way it does, but USM appears to have a really good team. Might have to wait and see how they do for the season too.

 

[tired]

No. USM whipped our asses, period. They get credit. This isn't all on Canns. The players have to take some responsibility.

 

[msstatelp1]

No. We lost, doesn't matter why.

@ USM 4-7[SUP]69[/SUP]

@ USM 2-5[SUP]69[/SUP]

[SUP]69[/SUP] - Denotes sexting from the dugout

 

[WrapItDog]

I would go with (.)(.) instead an asterisk

 

[dawgstudent]

That could work too.

Clam is missing the beard...did you verify too?

Ha. Clever wording. Probably nobody would admit to verifying now.

 

[patdog]

It does, but one non-conference opening weekend is so insignificant, it really doesn't matter. This team will be defined by what it does in March - May, and that's the case whether Cannizaro was fully engaged in this season or not. As someone else pointed out, USM appears to have a pretty good team this year. They may have taken 2 or 3 anyway.

It’s a good question that will be answered

Over the next six weeks.

The stuff about Coach being distracted in the dugout is pure BS. Rumor circle.

 

[tatedog]

No need for an asterisk. We can claim our revenge when we return to Hattiesburg as the three seed. And I'll be honest, while I'm making absolutely no excuses for Cann's behavior.... if our players are so weak minded and weak willed that the coach's bad behavior causes them to play that badly, it doesn't say much for them.

Agreed. It just makes people feel better about getting our *** whipped.

 

[GhostOfJackie]

There is no excuse for being swept by southern miss period. As distracted as our head coach was, their head coach wasn’t even allowed in the stadium until sunday. We will be fine but USM deserves credit for that sweep. That team is good and their Friday guy Sandlin might be one of the best pitchers in the nation.

 

[JungRebel]

If the stories about Cann are true, you guys are going to be way better off in the long run, perhaps this season too. You've got an interim who has been successful in the SEC and a team that will likely rally around each other after dealing with this distraction for a while. If y'all survive this road stretch y'all will be in good shape going into SEC play.

Nah. Too saggy for Lee. Hers are more perky. Get your dots up in the center.
