I think we've all ( or most) come to terms with the fact that we just aren't a good team. This should convince anyone who is somehow still "on the fence."

We are at the bottom in most offensive catagories. Small ball will continue.
We defy gravity record wise.
But it’s our pitching that’s costing us games…
Any conference foes have anywhere near the 8th toughest schedule in the country? The said thing is this team is talented enough to have 5 or 6 more wins easily, if the game management wasn’t atrocious.
I think people forget that our former hall of fame coach didn't get to 1173 victories by managing every game perfectly. I'm almost certain he wasn't the same coach in his first 300 games in Div 1 Baseball as he was later in his career. They are completely different in how they managed games, but there was only one Tony Robichaux.
It there really that much talent though?
We are inconsistent, but that's college baseball. Good college baseball teams play consistently well. Average teams play well sometimes. Maybe playing small ball is all we have.
Why are we 4-5 in the conference instead of 8-1 if there is so much talent, game management? Why are our national offensive stats in the 20th percentile and last in conference, game management? I think we manage the talent we have. We have one or two starters with swing holes big enough to drive trucks through door handle to door handle. One guy can't hit a breaking ball to save his life. If you disagree, that's fine.
Freebasing should be illegal.
One thing is very consistent about this team and that is Deggs consistently sets them up to fail. I can remember multiple times this year first and 2nd no outs instead of laying one down and gettin 2nd and 3rd one out we hit into a double play. Last weekend we start the game with 7 bunts in a row. We need 1 in the 9th to keep it going get your lead guy on no outs. Instead of getting him in scoring position with 2 hacks at it we ground into a double play. Deggs has single handily cost this team half of the games they lost. He does not put them in position to be successful. He never does little things to scratch a run in here and there always trying to get em all back at once.
With the holes you speak of even more reason to play small ball more and manufacture runs.
