BB G3: Louisiana @ Sam Houston State

And you are entitled to your opinion that a change should be made now. However, it’s is silly to criticize long-standing fans for actually rooting on their team. Tony Robichaux has done a lot for us and many of us have tremendous respect for him. So pardon those of us that are rooting for him. Even with his current performance being terrible.

I don’t know you or your true intentions but your posts give me the impression you would prefer Robe to fail. Maybe that’s not what you want but you should maybe reflect on your posts.

As far as do I believe we make a regional, I don’t know. The odds aren’t great as we stand, but it is certainly within the realm of possibility. I definitely can’t say with certainty today that we won’t make a regional. I’ve learned my lesson in judging college baseball teams too early.

All that said I agree with you on the trend over the last few years. We have never completely recovered from losing Deggs IMO.

If things stay this bad or get worse I would certainly be open to changes being made at the end of the season. I don’t agree there is any coaching change that should occur during the season.

These people are not fans, Roug.

A new type of fan to me. While I might not be happy with a coach, I never hope the team he or she is coaching loses. That would mean I'm openly hoping one of my program's teams loses so the coach will be terminated. That is a loser mentality!

[LifeTimeCajun]

Oh, he tried and he recruited and signed a closer, however he may have missed. How many misses he gets, I don’t know. I’m just not there yet.

How many high school teams have closers? Heck how many travel teams have closers? Not sure the talent pool is as big as one may think to go find a “closer”. They are usually found by process of elimination at the college level

Exactly, this is going on 3 years now!

BTW, I have never seen a group of fans as some on here that are so MESMERIZED with a coach!

Mike, your no longer a coach at this University. Stop the mess. No one is happy about this.

SO you are a fan because you keep thinking things will turn around and I guess I am not a fan because I do not think it will!

Problem is, it seems the fans that are still in the wanting to believe are the one crowd likely have some type of relationship with the coach which I guess is understandable.

To be fair, give this a thought. This fan base isn’t the only group MESMERIZED with Robe. He’s got major respect from many of the major outlets that cover college baseball and his peers. The man whose team just swept us this weekend might not be coaching right now if it wasn’t for Robe.

People love to say the whole thing went out the window when Deggs left but that 2015 team is hard to ignore. They lost about everything you could lose and still made a Super. The 2016 team missed a Super by 1 game to the World Series runner up. There’s a standard with UL baseball, and the only reason it is as high as it is is because of Robe. I think he would be the first to admit that he gets no lifetime pass and has to live up to that standard. Like i said earlier my best guess would be he has this year and most likely a couple more to right the ship.

Well said.

Today should of been our first loss. It s u c k s the way the season has started. I’m as ____ed as the next guys believe me. This is a better team than last year. I don’t like the way the season has started. But it’s time to get it together. Every team we have played so far either will be a regional team or will be in the running for a bid. Every team will go thru a tough stretch and I can’t believe it will be this way all year. The bar is high and this isn’t acceptable but we will figure it out.

Who on here is saying they hope the team loses??

I could say Fans like you are the bigger problem. Finding each and every excuse for the team losing.
I guess the team could be 15-30 and fans would still think they would make a regional! I am a realistic fan not a homer or sunshine pumper fan!

From one baseball supporter both $$$ and emotionally, I will not support this product. But I agree with your overall post. I support Robe and the team but things have to change

I think every fan in existence wants to believe their team will win. What’s funny is if this team somehow does make a regional this year you will probably disappear until the next time the program is in a down period. You accuse us of it being personal with Robe but it sounds like you have a personal problem with the man.

[DuckmanUSLGrad]

Geaux Cajuns! No I will not. I will be the first here to eat crow. So if they do not make a regional will you disappear??

And NO I do not even know the man. He did a lot for the program but there comes a time when things need to maybe change. I mean if this team does not make a regional for 3 years in row something needs to change.
