Robichaux and his method.....

[CajunFan3406]

I'd hope we are on our way up; you can go much further down than dead last in conference.

How much further?

Probably because Bustle had some soft players. Robe is a great pre game speaker. He used to at least fire me up and I had a pretty good career. But I also played with warriors.

Soft? Soft? have you listened to robe's post game the past 5 years? He is always saying we are too soft but who brought them here? Its always something with robe, we are too young, too soft, but we always seem to pitch well enough. by the way the same soft players in football that went 3-9, went 9-4 . get your haead out of robe's a s s . You are obviously biased. he is the one who has recruited choir boys for almost 10 years now. at the end of the day evrything that happens in a program, the head coach is responsible for. thats what he gets paid for, he has control over it all, the players, the attitude, everything. personally i think robe's biggest problem is he wants to control too much. He should let his hitting coaches worry about hitting, when it comes to hitting he should keep his mouth shut. we both know that will never happen.

If you've never been closer to the program other than watching through the fence, please don't comment on this. This man is the reason you all have the expectations that you do. It's not always coaching that is the problem. It's the players responsibility to play with a fire to refuse to lose. Robe has done so much for the program and university. He's got my support for life. He prepares his players for battle on the baseball field and life after baseball. The last few years have been a dip down, but we are on the way up. Be careful what you wish for.

I see things similar to you, with a small twist. When you say that Robe prepares players (baseball and life after), part of that preparation is instilling the fire you mentioned. If we are going to credit Robe for some player attributes, it is unfair to say that he also isn't partially responsible for getting these guys "motivated". If Robe says "you guys aren't motivated" and uses language and actions to work on that... it isn't correct just because he pointed at them... that "we" point at them. He is the master baseballer at UL. The program either works... or it does not work. He weaves the thread. We can talk all day about the baseball players... but Robe is 100% responsible for them from our, the fans, perspective.

I agree with the "careful what you wish for"... however. But, I'm not sure we have a "fire Robe" discussion going on. We have a "do something about this, Robe" discussion going on. I think that we indeed should "want what we're wishing for"... an improved baseball situation. You are absolutely correct in that "Robe is the man that gave many on here expectations in the first place". I'm not going back to pre-Robe, because there were other issues I'd rather not rehash.

From what I heard, Robe has done some serious work in the offseason already to get us in much better shape this coming year. If we flounder like we did this past season... Robe should take the heat. If he is intimidating the players, as someone mentioned, to a negative effect at the plate... then "he" is at fault. He has lost the art of "giving fire" without "burning people". If that improves this coming year... we'll all be happy campers. We shall see...

You obviously never played for him. He does let his hitting coaches teach hitting. And we haven't had choir boys for the last 10 years. I can speak for my years 05--08. We won many many games, in fact 162 of them.

How much further?

typo, can't obv

That player needs to pack his locker up and leave.

He DID......via the draft.

Misinterpreted this sentence. Sorry I commented.
