Hitting woes

Just one mans opinion, but I think we're making a huge mistake keeping Talbot to coach this incoming class.

I'll keep my fingers crossed.

I seriously doubt Talbot makes out the lineup

The way it's been explained to me is that Robe focuses 100% on the pitching/defense and hitting coach has 100% flexibility on the lineup.

Cool deal, never heard that before and it's interesting

It's also probably why our offenses have been up and down for 20 years though..

Why do people keep saying this like it's just so easy to go find a hitting coach that's the equivalent of a D1 head coach who got his team ranked and a game from Omaha in 3 years..I hate to break it to everyone, there aren't a whole lot of Matt Deggs out there and damn sure not many looking to be a hitting coach in the sun belt.

There's lots of teams that have been far better at the plate than the Cajuns since Deggs left. When our players play in summer leagues against players across the spectrum we excel. We seem to have great players, but somehow they don't perform here.

Not arguing against that...saying "lets go get another Matt Deggs" is much easier said than done. It was an extremely unique situation. We basically had 2 top notch head coaches on the same staff that excel at opposites of the baseball spectrum, which gets you 58-10. Without Deggs issues in his personal life, we never have a chance at landing him....for damn sure not as a hitting coach. Getting someone better than Talbot isnt quite the same as "going get another Matt deggs"

Those guys all had swag forever and ever. I told my wife in June 2014, "These are the good old days." I remember Moo State tying up a Regional game 4-4, their fans chanting S-E-C, S-E-C. They lost by 6 runs.

This incoming freshman class is going to be something special, mark my words. I have personally watched many of these guys play ball over the last 5 plus years. These guys know how to win, they have tons of swag. This is going to be a special special class.
