That's not even remotely what he (I don't think) or I are saying. Nobody (mostly) wants him to stay as our head coach. We all want the best coach in the land and now have expectations that we're trying to do that. Henderson, just like the rest of us, got thrown into a ****ed up situation with this season thanks to Cann. Very few interim coaches eventually become the head coach and most won't even be with the team the next year either due to new coaches overhaul or the fact that they were the head coach for a bit and now they have to go back down.Quote:

Nobodies quit the team. We didn't go on any crazy losing streaks. Nobody got into public fights and the players have handled it great. Even if Henderson may not be good enough to be our head coach in a normal season, he stepped in this year and did us a solid until we could find someone else.
Gautreau could have stepped in and kept the program in a good place. Everybody acts like if henderson wouldn't have been here our program would have turned into a prison gang. We made a regional because we have a few talented guys and for the most part play hard. And we started playing better when Henderson got the **** out of the way and let Gautreau take over the offense. Henderson coached pitchers, called pitches, and handled all the media shit. Gautreau got us in a regional. **** henderson.
Well today has been tough to watch. Bad pitching management decision led to the last 11 runs on only 5 outs. Sorry 12 runs as I type this.
Cannot understand removing our pitcher that was dealing for 3 batters just to let them score 12 unanswered.
It doesn't take a baseball genius to understand you stay with the hot hand, even if a normal day would lead you to taking him out after facing 5 batters.
Leave the guy who ended the 6th and we would have won this game, saved our bullpen and are in the drivers seat, more than likely.
Maybe Henderson was just trying to get home sooner unfortunately his strategy might make the stay longer.Quote:

Agreed, he didn't ask for it, but he got it. And honestly, he's probably coached himself into a smaller gig somewhere. It has to be hard trying to focus on the current job when you know it's not permanent
Exactly. Gordon did what he has done in that situation which is allow big innings. Hell if we put in Neff there he probably gets out of it or maybe only 2 runs score but not ****ing 9. When he put Gordon in that situation, that was the turning point in the game. That MFer didn’t get a single out. Once they scored 9 runs that inning the game was over as everyone just went through the motions after that. It reminded me of the Auburn game we were up 4-0 in a similar situation. Henderson puts in Gordon and a 7 run inning insues. Henderson has made more puzzling decisione this year then I have seen in our baseball program the last 20 years. That brings him up to -11 coaching affect. He really should retire. He’s washed up.Quote:

What ever happened to the "trust Cohen" mentality? This move was made for a reason... multiple reasons actually.Quote:

Let's be real all these soft boys got in as much trouble with Henderson as head coach as they would have with Gautreau, Brown, me or you.Quote:

Henderson was largely responsible for making a regional by getting the **** out of the way so by that he did a great job. But to say Henderson is responsible for keeping the program from becoming 80s Oklahoma football and to keep for fellating him as such is ridiculous. Gautreau and the players are much more responsible and to insinuate Henderson was totally responsible for "holding things together" is a slap in the face to anyone with any intelligence. Hence it plays well with some here.
Agree.Quote:

I wish fewer of our fans were dicks. We all know that Coach Henderson is leaving. He was part of an overachieving team that made it to a super regional. He is part of an overachieving team that is playing in a regional. Thank him for his effort and accomplishments. Wish him the best for the future. Move on. This has absolutely nothing to do with ?demanding more.? The man is leaving when the season is over. Seems strange to me that some of you insist that only two options exist, either scream insults at Coach or you are accepting mediocrity. Odd.Quote:
