It’s not actively trashing MAT. No one is saying Robe hasn’t done good. That tweet was disingenuous at best considering the last two seasons. This is a message board open for opinions. We aren’t in that circle, period. Tennessee Tech is a handful of wins from being in that list.
Get over it. There will be a new hitting coach and there will be no announcement. What did we want, a new hitting coach or an announcement. The world is not ending and hopefully the new coach can help add some fire into our offense. Can't wait for next season. Let's move on and look forward to it.
Ashamed of what ? The truth ? Talbot WILL still be involved with the offense. Mark that down. And none of this is an attack on your boy Robe. You need to face the hard cold statistical facts that this baseball program is going backwards. Yes this program did really well from 2013 thru 2016 but you can’t and won’t make me believe that we have grown as a program off of the recent success. We haven’t recruited squat since Talbot has been here. If you can’t see that then you’re blind. I’ve been a season ticket holder now for several years and probably have forgotten more baseball than you know and just because you come on here like Mr. King of the Message Boards and disagree with people doesn’t mean we can’t state an opinion. You ask WTF is wrong ? Look at the last 2 seasons. Once you start accepting mediocrity, you’re done. Right now, this program isn’t near ready to play with the big boys. Not even close. Tell that to your sources.
I have now talked to a handful of former players who throw their hands up when asked what’s going on with the program right now. That right there is more telling than anything anyone can say on this board.
I have heard the same from current/former players and I may be the least connected poster on this board.
I surely don’t have rock solid sources like some on here boast about who claim that you you can take their posts to the bank and degrade anyone who questions what they say (even though they are on the record as being wrong on hot topics several times).
This insight from current/former players is concerning to me. Robe is now steering a ship that is significantly larger than the one that he inherited. With the bills and expectations from fans that come with a new stadium maybe it is time for Robe to change the way he interacts with the fans? Just a thought....
