    Baseball Coaching Search - Does familiarity breed contempt amongst MSU fans?

    I can assure you of this: Our NIL in the SEC alone is behind: Tenn Texas Texas AM LSU Arkansas Florida Georgia And its WAAAAAY behind the top 4 on that list. Id assume we are in the neighborhood if not better than schools like Ole Miss, Auburn.... and probably better than Oklahoma...

    Baseball Coaching Search - Does familiarity breed contempt amongst MSU fans?

    I dont cringe when I heare Mingione. I think he'd be a good hire... and one i'd hire on the spot if he was intersted in the job. Not saying I think he'd take things to the next level, but he'd be a guy that would solidify things, because I do think Lemonis is leaving more of a train wreck than...

    Hire Will Coggin...

    Sooo lets hire a 40 year old, thats never been a head coach at any level... and who was highly thought of enough that he was basically out of coaching for 3 years, has never been rumored to get any other job... and has tons of bad baggage that'll come along with him Honestly think he's the...

    Hire Will Coggin...

    i didnt say never... i said Cann has a better shot at coming back than Coggins... and I believe that to be true.

    It's so obvious that we should hire Lane Burroughs.....

    wasnt comparing styles. Was more or less saying... we'd be hiring a guy with a long history of MEH success at a school/conference/program that is nowhere close to our standards.. and hoping it works out. Very much the same way we did with Lemonis. There are better candidates out there...

    It's so obvious that we should hire Lane Burroughs.....

    This. Burroughs just isnt a good option. If you want more of the same that lemonis brought, then he's your guy. He'll probably even bring in a higher floor.. but he doesnt have a ceiling. Again if he was someone anyone thought would be a difference maker for a program, he'd already have a...

    It's so obvious that we should hire Lane Burroughs.....

    No way he should be at the top of anyones list... if he was as good as the OP he wouldve landed a job somehwere by now. Hes been a HC for 11 years.. 3 regionals.. there are a laundry list of coaches with better resumes And lets please not go raid USM for players. They are at USM for a reason...

    Hire Will Coggin...

    Hard no to coggins. We'll be hire to much better. If he wants a big job he needs to go to a smaller school and earn it. The time out of baseball is alarming.. there's more bad than good there.. based on stuff i've heard you've got a better shot at Cann coming back that Coggins ever stepping...

    Had Deion came to State ….

    point fingers where you may... and some of it can be valid. However it follows the track history of a post-leach program...... none of the three programs he ran thrived after he left... all 3 took steps backwards... and 2 of the 3 had one (or two in our case) of their worst seasons in a LONG...

    Had Deion came to State ….

    you left one out... Mississippi State 29-23 4 years pre leach 19-17 with leach 7-17 post leach Texas tech also had their first losing season in 20 years in year 2 post-leach. Not to mention our 13 game bowl streak ended post-leach. Also washington state a little mis-leading.. his first four...

    Had Deion came to State ….

    that isnt the argument dumbass. Ive said i had no issues with Leach as the head coach here.... The point of discussion was where he left the program, it was said he leaves his programs in very good shape.. which just isnt the case....but he comes with buffers on both sides to get his players...

    These kids out here dropping like flies (13-year old TJs).....

    most leagues ive been around have at least 2 years of kid pitch where there are no leads and runners cant steal before the ball hits the mitt. Thats generally 9 and 10. Then it gradually increases to leads and such at 11 and 12.... so there is a progression. I do get what your saying.. but i...

    These kids out here dropping like flies (13-year old TJs).....

    I disagree... thats the problem with public schools we have a group struggling so we are going to penalize the top half of the group so the bottom half can catch up...but the reality is the bottom half doesnt really want to catch up.. they just want the same A that the top half is getting...

    Had Deion came to State ….

    the problem with that is.. they didnt revert to what they have always been. Texas Tech was always a middle of the pack program.. they went straight to the bottom of the confernce after Leach. We here in Starkville, hadnt had a losing season in 10+ seasons, been 13 straight bowls... we are the...

    These kids out here dropping like flies (13-year old TJs).....

    very true. Rec ball is bad. Worst i've ever seen it. Everything you said is right. The pitching is awful and honestly on most teams you can walk the 1-2-3 hitters to load the bases and if you pitcher can throw a strike.. you'll strike out the 4-5-6 hitters with ease. Its that bad. Which is...
