I am proud of our baseball program

[Ranchdawg]

It has been a frustrating season for sure. We started out by firing our coach. Since then our coaching staff has played catch up with the rest of the SEC. Regardless of what happens this weekend I am proud of our players and coaching staff. After being dealt a bad hand they gave it the old college try in the best baseball conference.

I’m proud of this team, but I’m not proud of the program.

The program itself is in disarray and at one of its lowest points.

It was at one of its lowest points 3 months ago when the Cann saga unfolded. It is now no longer there as we have rallied to at least compete for a regional bid and reportedly have some of the top names in the business interested in coming on board as HC. Have some perspective.

The good thing with baseball is a roster can be remade in 2 years. Next year looks tough to me though depending on how our Soph/jr handle the MLB Draft

Nothing says "disarray and lowest points" quite like this:

in comparison to:
2017 - 24th
2016 - 22nd
2015 - 2nd but blew out all of the arms
2014 - 37th
2013 - 17th
2012 - 57th
2011 - 41st

This PROGRAM is cocked, locked, and ready to rock. Just waiting on the right guy to lead it.

its incredible we are even competitive with all of the pitching injuries we have had over the last few seasons.

 

[patdog]

Yeah. They've fought through a lot of adversity. If they based NCAA bids on the 2nd half of the season only, there'd be no debate whether we'd be in, and we'd be talking about whether we could host if we take 2 from Florida.

We are about to hire a great coach and have the best stadium in the country, and we are coming off 2 super regionals, and even with the Cannizaro crap, if we hadn't had the rash of TJ then this team would likely be a host. How wrong do you want to be today

 

[dawgstudent]

Damnit Cannizaro. That guy ****** up a good situation for him. He was publicly likeable, could recruit, etc.

 

[patdog]

I think this will ultimately work out for the good of the program. Yes, Cannizaro was a great talker and recruiter. But I think the next guy is going to be an overall upgrade.
