Which IF we want to compare the raw ERAs across conferences to the SEC 5.25 would be 9th in the SEC. So if you think the 9th best pitching staff in the SEC is the best we can do, it's a good hire.
And 9th might be the best we can do next year because our staff is a mess, but he's 9th with 100% his own recruits so would he really be 9th with our crapshow? And are we really happy with 9th as our long term expectation?

We are never going to get what we think we deserve till we move on. No big time PC is coming to work with Lemonis. I just think we have wasted 2024. I would love to be wrong
Lol again, why would icare about Ks and walks except as they relate to allowing runs? The guys staffs are mediocre at what matters. That's what I care about.
Say we had a hitter that hit .200 and had an obp of .250, but he had the fastest swing on the team and one hit had a 119mph exit velo. Do you keep him in the lineup? No! Because he's hitting. 200 and can't get on base! Swinging hard is part of getting hits, but actually getting hits/on base is what we want.
Can Walton recruit?
Hmm. Yeah? this doesn?t scream excitement. We will improve I think because? how can we not? But I wish this would be better.
Lord some of y’all just like to be miserable…
I really don't. Believe it or not, I was quite happy when we won a Natty and I was quite happy to see that Jan's and Purcell seem like good coaches. Leaches first game where we threw for 623 yards was fun as hell.
But I call a spade a spade. Lemonis is not good at his job, and Walton is not an elite pitching coach. If we all agree on those points I'll be quiet. If someone can out argue me and convince me they're great ill be much happier. So far all I'm hearing to counter me on both fronts is uh... lackluster at best. I hope I'm wrong. I hope Todd4State and C34 bring up these threads to me next June to call me an idiot because that means we turned it around. Bit ill call a spade a spade
Agreed we should have fired Lemonis. I've been VERY vocal on it. HOWEVER, the people who wanted to keep him based a lot of their logic on how much better an "elite" PC would make us. Well, if hire this guy that argument for Lemonis is gone too.
But I agree we were never going to get an elite coach. "Come to our shitshow where the HC is on the hottest seat in the country, but at least you'll get paid 200k more here for that 1 season before you're fired!" Isn't a good recruiting pitch. The 90% of us who wanted Lemo fired already knew this. But that 10% sure do like their optimistic hypothetical and only enough I don't see them in this thread hyping up the new PC...
I hope this Walmart Coach works out but ... something tells me the clown car is going off the cliff for good next May.
Here is the good thing about being MSU in baseball. Let?s say Lemonis doesn?t improve enough next year, and he gets canned. You hire the right dude who can come in and recruit the portal, and in one season you can be back.
There's nine (9) names on this list; I doubt any of them would be included on the "list of 1,000 phone calls" that Lem supposedly received about the PC job. In any event, I would guess that 995 were from HS/JC coaches throughout the Southeast USA. Supposedly the PC's at Fordyce, AR and Toomsuba, AL are very good. Go Bugs go!!
