BB G3 Final: Louisiana 2, Texas State 6

If it were a normal year i could see us missing the tourney. The remainder of the season will probably be like the past few weeks. One win...two or three losses. This team does not have the grit or the “it” factor. I think some have started making vacation plans. We should of rolled thru this conference and it shouldnt of been close

I was very optimistic after about 10 games. I wouldn't sweat this too much now. I'm just hopeful for a winning season. Anything else is lagniappe.

You and I have been pretty closely aligned on this situation. I can tell you for a fact that the team has not quit. In fact, several guys in that locker room hurting right now..

Well if im wrong i stand corrected. And i didnt say all of them. But as a player, as a competitor, as a winner...at some point enough is enough and u gotta draw a line in the sand. And i havent seen that happen yet.

They are the ones that keep me going; it's not their grit or will that has been a problem this year.

Wells might go but JT is here until Deggs leaves.

If JT is the issue like everyone thinks and that’s the hill Deggs wants to die on then he wont be here very long either.

Robe was loyal to a fault but he also built the place himself and had a lot of skins on the wall. It’s just insane to me what our offense looks like our 3 paid coaches specialty is offense, either we need someone else buying the groceries or a different chef. That’s not even getting into what our defense and situational awareness looks like

I talked to some who works in the athletic department this morning. Admin already getting emails to fire Deggs

I’m not on that train at all but if JT remains the one constant and we continue to be mediocre... well I might be getting on that train. I don’t think the people that support this program will watch us have ____ty defense, stupid errors and not hit for very long. As frustrating as it was under Tony to watch us not hit some years, you knew you would have a chance with defense, pitching and being smart about the situation. If you gonna be dumb you better be tough. Our “offense lineup” Produced 2 runs against a Sunday starter on a team 7 games under .500

Tony also built up years of goodwill. Deggs does not have that and it being a carbon copy of the issue the last few years. Maggard will give him time to rebuild don't know if the fans will

Watching really bad baseball is not something people around here are accustomed to and that’s what we are seeing currently. We aren’t just coming up short we are getting our asses kicked

And we’ve progressively gotten worse.. Not exactly the mark of a well coached baseball team..
