    If it continues to trend this way, then Lemonis can truly place all of the last two years at the feet of Foxhall.

    Well offense was never really the issue. And when the team ERA is 9+ it's hard for the 1927 Yankees to overcome that. And no- we weren't the 1927 Yankees but we were middle of the pack in the league which is certainly good enough to win games.

    Bad pitching and walking people affects defense negatively. Although some of that was Forsythe getting the yips and Alford not being able to focus. That's been taken care of.

    Losing like we were also affects swag. Hard to be confident and talk smack when there is a better than average chance that the pitchers aren't going to hold whatever lead we got.

    I'm still impressed we somehow had a winning season last year somehow with everything going on.

    Lemonis's biggest mistake IMO was not firing Foxhall after 2022.

    I don't think a lot of fans realize just how bad Foxhall was. Absolute trainwreck. Then again- even if he got our pitching staff ERA to 5 which isn't that great that would be a huge improvement over last year. I think Landon Sims covered A LOT for him in 2021. What would 2021 have been like with Parker? Cerentola probably gets developed. Fristoe probably doesn't crash and burn. We know MacLeoud got hurt.

    Here's how bad we were- coming into this weekend our team ERA wasn't even in the top half of the league and right now- and we have fans wanting to give Parker assistant of the year. And he has done a good job.

    Yep! LOL. Maybe they'll learn a lesson. Or probably not. Lemonis needs to steal this series. If he does we're going to be in really good shape.

    It's been funny.

    Pre-season- "We all know what's going to happen- this is Lemonis's last year. Don't know why Selmon kept him. Lazy AD."

    Austin Peay- "I told you so! Lemonis isn't coming back! We all saw this coming!"

    Team gets better once Mershon and Kohler come back- "Yeah we look better but look at who we have played. Our schedule is so weak! We should be beating these teams. Once we get to SEC play we're going to fire Lemonis midseason. Get back to me after we have played three SEC series."

    LSU- "OK but we beat LSU last year too."

    A&M- "OK I'm starting to believe."

    What are Tam fans chanting? Couldn?t make it out what they were attempting to chant. It was so annoying. Like Vandy whistler or softball continually chanting from the dugout annoying. Shut up and enjoy the game. They are some weird ass people over there.

    If you all think aTm fans are bad, just wait until Texas joins. OU has good fans though I just wish SEC had taken Okie State with OU instead of Texas

    Couldn’t watch the game so just catching up. Major props to Parker with this staff and for Lemonis to hire him. He is making a major difference, along with our defense. Credit Lemonis for getting the D improved too. I was definitely await and see guy but I was pulling for Lemonis because constant coaching turnover is never a good thing for a program( even though we pulled it off before Lemonis somehow). It was still a bit of a rocky start with our weak schedule and I wanted to see us in SEC play. But it seems the guys are mostly healthy, gelling and playing hard, which is awesome. Great job to get the split. Now let’s go get the gravy today!!!

    The sec probably missed more revenue by doing this. I?m sure the A&M alumni would have paid easily 50 million a year to have made that happen.

    Parker has brought swag to the team.
    Lemonis made the hire, after tanking our team 2 years not seeing the issue with pitching early enough.
    No brainer to me who needs to be running this program.

    Cade coached by Parker would have been great.

    Parker needs to be a HC and soon. Wish it was here. Lemonis let things drag too long.
