It is over. Yes I am saying he is done after that loss
I'm not saying he's 100% certain to be fired yet, but I will remind that literally our entire fanbase wanted him fired last May other than Coach34, and Selmon thought he knew better.
What an awful decision. He better hope Lebby (who got the job because Selmon is his friend, uh-oh) is good.
Jesus, guys.
I won't say he's done after one loss but if we lose tomorrow, you might as well fire him after the game
Should've done it last year. We've kicked the can down the road about as far as we can.
I was wrong in wanting to keep him for another year.
It?s as simple as this. If we are who we claim to be in baseball, then there is no way in hell that this is acceptable.Quote:

It?s just one game I remind you After back to back seasons of absolute futility and record breaking losses.
Selmon wasnt prepared. I didnt buy it then but he cant use that excuse again.Quote:

I mean, it's too early to judge with certainty, but we certainly have the same traits as the last 2 years.
LSU lost to Nichols State last year. Lost to New Orleans in 2022. Are they who they say they are?Quote:

It is apparent to me that our overall hitting strategy is get hits where when we can but just wait till we get to opposing teams bullpen and then really try to win the game then.
Yes they made hoover. They fired marineri who won nattys. Who you defend and who you are against is the most perplexing thing on this boardQuote:

And Colby H. with the WALKS at the WORST possible time.
A) We havent missed Hoover this year.Quote:

C) I'm not defending anything just pointing out the obvious. Good baseball teams lose to doorknobs all the time. Candy lost today. LSU beat the powerhouse of Central Arkansas 2-0 today in a nailbiter. NC State lost today. Florida- 2nd in the country lost to St Johns yesterday. I'm not sure St Johns could beat Southaven 2 outa 3.
The SEC schedule will decide his fate. Get it done or fire his ass but I'm not going to stress over losing a cold weather game to a team that is used to practicing/playing in the cold.
I’m not sure how I feel. I thought giving him another year was the correct call. He’s the only coach with a natty ring in the history of the school. He also recruits at a high level. You can probably chalk up 2022 to some bad injuries. 2023 was unacceptable and this year is a question mark. We didn’t look great, but a lot of the top ten teams, including Arkansas, Florida, and LSU didn’t look good. Ole Miss didn’t look good either. Take it with a grain of salt. If he has a bad year, let’s just hope he doesn’t do just well enough to save his job.
The only reason we havent missed it yet is because it hasnt happened yet. Marineri probably never set school records for losing like Lemonis has. I fully understand good teams lose to bad teams in baseball. But good teams dont do what we have done for going on 3 years. Its not hardQuote:

Need to smash the ball and score runs, that is suppose to be our strength. Pitching except for one guy was good.
I don't see how anyone who has an IQ bigger than their shoe size could defend lemondick. Same ones who defended Arnett i bet!
FAU beat Vandy today so I guess there season is over too. Guess we can get Corbin**Quote:

I don't get why people are so upset. It's one damn game in a season of 50+ of them. We lost one 3-2 because we walked two in the 9th.
Let's give the team an actual chance before saying we should blow it up. It's ridiculous that grown people actually think like this.
Vandy and lsu have earned the benefit of patience. After the last 2 seasons, I think a melt is justifiedQuote:

It's not so much we lost as the fact we handed the game to AF when they had a whopping 4 hits all day. They score the winning runs in the 9th off one stinking seeing eye single because we gifted them with 2 baserunners with the same pitcher that also gifted them with 2 baserunners in the 8th but luckily escaped in that inning. Any pitcher that would have thrown strikes in the 9th would have won us the game.
Looking at that record is shocking. I don't follow baseball as closely as some but holy crap how did Lemonis not get fired last year? You think Kentucky would have let a basketball coach miss the tournament 2 years in a row?Quote:

Get outta here... you understand some coaches get more rope than others. Lemonis has been given waaaayyyy more patience than he probably deserves.Quote:

Really 2 and a half if you consider Highfill at DH. I think he's a better player than Powell or Long. We're missing Kohler which hurt us tonight at the plate as well as Mershon.Quote:

Yep. This. And I wouldn't be surprised if we finish the season strong when we are healthier and we know our roles.Quote:
