So, just how bad was Foxhall?

Look at what has happened to Auburn.

It's an oddity because I look back to bednar and simms but the pitchers were awful after these

 

[patdog]

Bad enough that we never should have kept him on for 2023.

 

[Pak Drescott]

Really speaks to how good Bednar and Sims were because every other pitcher regressed under Foxhall

He isn’t their pitching coaching but all the evidence says he is the worst PC in college baseball.

 

[57stratdawg]

I think he got too focused on data instead of pitching.

In 2022, when he showed up sporting a beard, I knew we were done.

We have 7 coaches listed on the roster. On Hailstate.com 5 of the 7 have beards including Foxhall's replacement......

Telling my kids this is Foxhall making the call to the pen AGAIN

As first pitch is slowly creeping upon us... - Forums

is there anyone more nervous than Scott Foxhall? If the new PC comes in and turns us around immediately, Foxhall is going to look like a gigantic moron. And if what a contact told me about the pitching staff is correct, we are really going to like the new PC.

I had this exact daydream right before the season started

I read in another thread if you blame the coaches for poor performance you're a "nimrod"

Of course, as did Lemonis. But the facts are he was still the pitching coach that engineered the best staff we’ve ever had, even if it didn’t work out later.

Lemonis is still suffering from analytical obsession. If he’d quit that shlt, we’d be fine.

ETA: there is a fundamental disconnect about how to coach baseball, and it’s different at every level. And even at the pro level, where they are using analytics the right way and doing the correct things, it’s still resulting in a boring product.

Can't blame Foxhall on the events of today.
{Auburn gave up several runs in the 9th)
Now, Tied 9 all in the 9th.

I knew Foxhall when he was at College of Charleston. He was the reason they got to Regionals and Super Regionals. He's a great coach/teacher but no matter how good you are eventually the game passes you by, either that or the players do.

 

[patdog]

No matter how bad you think he was, he was worse.

yeah, but foxhall's not a beard guy. if you can't grow a good one don't try to fake it.
