Well big money can shove it up their a55es on this one. What we’re seeing is atrocious and unacceptable. But it was a perfect storm of sh/t happening at once.Quote:

I score on my laptop and they don't have a wild, wild, wild , wild, etc. pitch on the program.Quote:

I know Tony doesn’t like to cut ties mid season but something has to happen now.Quote:

I guess it is terrible seasons like this that make the great seasons even better. However, if we are to get back to greatness, a change is needed. I have it on good authority that JT has indeed lost the players trust and confidence (but y'all don't need me to tell y'all that because it is obvious). The three year experiment is over. The trends are all down. It's just time. It's what is best for the team and program. I like JT personally, but he didn't get the job done and he has had more than adequate time.
Totally agree with u. If the average fan would know what Tony has really done at and for this university, I think some would feel a little differently. I don’t like what’s going on either. But for those that jump on the fire Robe bandwagon and always think the grass is greener on the other side, be careful what u wish for. I can promise u this isn’t gonna happen again next year.Quote:

Basically that they are a team that doesn't score many runs so they have to play better with pitching and defense. He seemed to accept they are who they are offensively. Topham tried to give him the out with a "moral victory" because they are hitting better and showed fight. Robe didn't go for it.Quote:

I’m sure he’s a decent man, but the truth is, the whole thing needs to be overhauled. Period.Quote:

Agree. Seems we should have a unique opportunity to maintain credibility with high ranked recruits. We need to show that we have offensive program that can develope their talent, showcase it, and win at high levels. Otherwise, top recruits will choose the bigger programs over usQuote:

I’m ____ed he brought back Talbot too. If you remember, I spent an entire week after the season ended explaining why it was imparaitve to get rid of him then. Literally everything I was b/tching about has come to fruition.
What was the reason he kept himQuote:
