    BS. The entire coaching staff is responsible for the talent on the field. UL rarely gets a crack at can't miss prospects so they have to project who will be able to play at this level. The entire coaching staff was present when we had approximately 50 players competing during fall ball. I would assume Deggs had final say on who made the roster and who now plays in the games. Up to this point, every player and coach owns some responsibility for the putrid display of offense. Blaming a recruiting coordinator for hitting under .200 seems a bit lazy and does not fully address the problem at hand.

    That RC is also on 3rd base ...I think it a combo of things Talbot recruting and Talbot vs Wells vs Deggs hitting strategy

    I think it mostly has to do with the fact that there are just two kids on the entire team that have ever hit .300 in a full season of D1 baseball. Cantrelle .309 last year and Bourgeois .311 two years ago.

    The returning players are the same guys who have struggled at the plate for a year or two or three. And the JUCO guys have never done anything at this level.

    Will some of these guys eventually figure it out? Who knows? But until guys are able to hit fastballs right down the middle of the plate (if they even pull the trigger), things won’t get a whole lot better.

    We in tough tough shape if we can't score a guy on 3rd, bottom 9th with no outs. 3 straight K's. There is nowhere to go from there, but up.

    ........Also maybe too much paralysis from analysts........last year I was going crazy with 3rd strike takes....so much taking of the first strike.....swing the damn bat, ya got 3 tries at least!

    After reading the paper today, I didn’t realize that Talbot was brought in to help some kids with individual sessions before he got the UL job....so I guess he was a part of the UL success when Deggs was hereBefore!

    My favorite scene in Indiana Jones movies was the gold skull swap attempt.
