So much "figuring it out" on the non-pitchi g side of things it's hard to handle
Bump.....Any new info?
We will find out soon if it?s really OK State pitching coach. OK State is on the verge of ending their season.
They've given up 20 runs in 6 1/3 IP so far.Quote:

OSU looks like garbage today. Like you said, small insignificant sample.Quote:

OSU coach will fit in nicely
6 hr given up and 3 2B with 6Bb
Well to fair, Walton is more like Mullen. Once he found out he had another job waiting, he checked out in his team. He probably told his pitching staff he was leaving for State at season?s end and they wanted to help him pack!🤣🤣🤣
Clemson Vs Tennessee is a great ballgame
Super Regional quality with 1st rounders banging heads
Let’s be honest, IF Walton indeed has been offered, it’s a little concerning after those two loses this weekend. At first I thought he may be ok, I looked up his resume and he has had success. I hope I’m wrong and the ones who think Lemonis staying is good, feed the sheep!
Maybe it will be a surprise who we get.
Lord some of y’all need to find another hobby. Y’all have already made your minds up that a guy who hasn’t even stepped foot on campus, or better yet, accepted the job, already is going to suck. So of y’all need to take a step back and relax. Look at it this way. If he sucks, you all will get your wish and Lemonis will be fired next year and you all can hire Joe Torre or whoever the hell y’all are gushing over by then..
Every fan base does this. Every. No big deal people being concerned.Quote:

But, I do not believe the guy who crashed the bus in the first place should continue driving it. I don't think Lemonis knows what he's doing and I fear we're not only wasting next season by keeping him, but are digging our program into a hole more and more.
I don't freak out about say, Virginia Techs's pitching coach hire, because I don't give a F if it works out for them or not. Would you rather we quit caring? Because as long as we care, we WILL look up the resume of the new pitching coach and discuss it. WTF do you think message boards are for?
I’m not freaking out, but those last two games were really really bad. Walton as I’ve stated has had success, I hope whoever we get has success.

If y’all aren’t concerned about a resume I’ll take the HC job for $1mill a year and then y’all can evaluate me when I’m on campus. I’ll give a low buyout, something like payoff my house and another $2mill. I’m outta y’all’s hair if I’m a problem.
It's been a very entertaining game!!Quote:

Yikes. Better hope this is a smokescreen
I'd rather hire Bill Walton
Whomever we hire its probably for just one season anyways.
Don't know what thread it was but TOdd said we're giving a multiple year guaranteed contract to get around the fact nobody wants to take a new job for 1 year till Lemonis gets canned. Of course that means we can't really fire Lemonis next year as not many HCs want to be stuck with a PC they've never met.Quote:

So it seems Walton (average ERA finish is 5th in the big12) does have talent to work with, and just doesn't develop it better than his peers.
One would think that if it were truly Walton, the trigger would have been pulled by now. So, is anyone hearing anything?
Exactly, the longer there is no Walton announcement, the better for us (ie, Walton = meh)... I'm hoping we can do significantly better than him.Quote:

I’ve been told that there are issues with the head coach being a micro manager and not doing a great job of it, which is why Walton has clashed with him and looking to leave.
Without looking, i wonder if the head coach’s back ground is as a pitching coach.
I’ve also been told Walton is highly thought of in the baseball community. We heard that about Foxhall though. I do think Foxhall changed theory when he got here and it hurt him.
Dead body dawg, glad to see you back posting.Quote:
