My how the tide has shifted

[JMV JustMyView]

Yeah guys like gonegolfin and dad04 don’t know anything about the game of baseball

Agreed! I would put Dad04 and CajunSball22 up against anyone on this board when it comes to baseball.

[Million$Mullet]

Obviously those guys know know much about the game. That is why some of us put more credence into their views than those of others.

That’s my point mike. These guys questioned moves made by Deggs throughout the year. But obviously they don’t know baseball cause babysitter said so

[CajunT]

People that play in program golf tournaments or have meals with coaches will continue to do that once current head guys are no longer here. Those are generally perks for program support. Those perks will continue to be available after staff changes are mAde.

Mike, I'm not referring to perks that come with levels of giving. That is expected and part of college athletics fundraising. I'm talking about those that enjoy the fellowship, friendship or recognition of coaches more than the programs they run. Those two things are not the same.

You can enjoy your friendship with coaches and still understand that the business side of the profession requires tough decisions at times. For example, if Coach Marlin is not retained following the upcoming season, I don’t believe any current Rebounders Club members will reduce their contributions for the following year. If so, the number will be very few. Some will continue to be friends with Coach Marlin in his next chapter in life.

I think there are some that can't, unfortunately.

Especially in the Rebounders Club.. it’s creepy, really.

[Duggie35]

I understand and this has been discussed ad nauseam. My point in responding to his mention of Billy Napier, is that I've learned through my own personal experiences with coaches, never put personalities over the program. While I'm extremely grateful for Billy Napier and staff, I will always put the program first unless their was evidence that the administration treated them unfairly. That was never the case with Napier or Marlin, but there is a segment of our fan base that value playing golf and attending BBQs with coaches over what is best for the program. At this point in my life, I'm not one of those fans.

Understood.

You mad Mullet ? Yeah, there are people on this board that understand the game. More don’t understand it. Choose your category. Even Jay Walker has to remind some of you that your football mentality doesn’t translate to knowing the game of baseball. Go chew on his ass.

[Million$Mullet]

Go chew on whose ass? Sounds like you’re the one who is mad.

Jay Walker isn’t the end all be all on this board when it comes to who is right and who is wrong. I respect his knowledge but just cause he says something is right doesn’t make it so. It’s his opinion just like everyone else on this board.

And since you want to ____ on anyone who you say “doesn’t know baseball” please post your credentials. It doesn’t take an expert to see that things needed to change midseason. It doesn’t take an expert to see the approach changed around that time. Make of it what you will. You can stop being a _____ or continue on. I promise I can be the bigger one

I don't always agree with M$M but he has been on this site a lot longer and he has some creed here. And everyone of his posts isn't negative like babysitters is.

[VObserver]

Just like there is more than one way to skin a cat, there is more than one way to play [or coach] baseball correctly.

Just because I prefer a certain style of play doesn't mean that another style of play is wrong, it is just different.
