The worst part is that our team looks poorly coached, not just bad.

If I’m a Sam Houston fan I don’t know if I should think “my team is really good. Look how they fought back. Twice in one day!” or “damn, the Cajuns are just bad. Twice in one day.”

How so?

Dude, go _____ yourself. You and your 6 posts.

So because you have 17K plus post I guess you think you have some RaginPagin street creed.

No reason to get all ____y and mad since I called you out.

So come on give me your thoughts about the 2nd game choke job last night!

People want to put pressure on a coach that literally has the deck stacked against him (marlin) but won't expect more out of a coach of a sport that we legitimately have national championship possibilities. Curious if softball fell to the point of not playing in postseason every year, would they have 3-5 years to "right the ship" or would there be serious concern about the coach and his program.

"deck stacked against him"? OK, I gotta hear this one..

What would you call 11 errors through 6 games? Or grooving fastballs over the heart of the plate on 0-2 counts? Or not getting the bunt down late in close games?

Things that Robe teams typically do well, we're losing games because of now.

If Robe can find anybody to close these games, the ship will right itself.

The dumpster fire is the bullpen. Everything else is window dressing.

You won’t find anyone on the roster. Robe is already trying out the RF for the closer role. Maybe today we’ll try the CF

My “cred” is well known. I don’t need your approval. Ive been involved with this program since before Tony and I’ll be here long after. I’m not a special pleader for the man.

The first 6 games of this season have been frustrating, like most of the last 2 years. But you football fans that watch baseball in the same vein want to put blanket statements over complicated issues. This year’s problems are their own. New staff, new players, new strategy at that plate. Fundamental changes on how you play the game do not take root in 6 games.

I see players who are unsure, scared, and falling back into bad habits. I see coaches trying to outthink themselves. I see lack of grit, which comes from lack of confidence. I see “team leaders” still feeling out their roles. I see a team with low self esteem.

None of this is acceptable. None of this has ONE answer.

Again, I’m not here to argue. But you can’t put it on Robe or Daniel when a young pitcher doesn’t understand how to waste a pitch. You can’t put it on the coaches when your (supposedly) all-everything SS can’t throw out a guy on a routine ground ball. Can’t put it on the coaches when your 4 hole hitter gets plssed when he’s asked to bunt with RISP.

I definitely see some decisions I can’t understand, though.

This might be good....popcorn anyone?
