Des Makes Big Change To August Camp

The thinking is your first sentence was very rude.

My thinking is If you didn't have your ass on your shoulders you wouldn't have taken that comment that way. How was I supposed to address Jay? Your heroship sir? Or young man? I'm an old man myself & Jay was heading to junior high when I was born. So yeah old man,, or old buddy, or old chap, or old anything is very descriptive & I highly doubt Jay's feelings are singed to the core over it.

Coach Dez answered some of these questions in the podcast interview he did with Jay. He links it in the thread about Andre Jones and Chris Smith. Listening to it gave me some optimism for the season and program going forward.

Thanks Mike for being one of the informative & truly informed supporters of the program.

Now you are stuttering.

Don’t think we comparing apples to apples. I don’t recall one person complaining how Deggs ran his fall ball or preseason camp leading up to the season.

The complaints were more on X’s and O’s for instance 1st and 2nd no body out and instead of moving runners you ground into a double play or strike out ground out and get noting. Or 1 and 3rd no one out in a game that you know will be low scoring and you take 3 hacks and get nothing. Even Deggs must have seen the era in some of his ways because last season towards the later part he started moving runners more than before and even using small ball as a weapon with his speed guys. That was a complete 180 from what he was doing before.

Now lets say Des comes out and runs a wish bone, or a flex bone or a veer offense with the current personnel he has and people start complaining about the way he is running his offense and you say there is more than one way turn an O and win. That would be more of a fair comparison to Deggs.

I'll dumb it down then.

Successful coach leaves. New coach does things differently. Fans freak out because they're not doing it the same way as the successful coach.

That's what I'm seeing.

Why do I get the feeling that 90% of posters here STILL believe the BIG LIE?

Jerry Baldwin was 100% a Blanco hire.
