2016 team with LeMo

[preachermatt83]

I genuinely believe had LeMo been the coach of the 2016 team that we would have won a National Championship.

Preacher you need to lay off the hard stuff. The 2016 team went as far as they could and really overachieved.

Negative sir. One of the most talented teams we’ve ever had. And had Hudson, Sexton, and Pilk throwing. With Zac Houston dominating out of the pen.

Arizona beat us 1-0 with a SP who was on a roll. They beat us 6-5 coming back after we had a lead. Nothing Lemon would/could have done to make things different.

Sorry that's wrong. We were 2nd in the SEC in BA (.308), 5th in ERA (3.35), and 5th in fielding. We won the SEC outright and were a national seed. We had 11 players drafted that year.

We most definitely didn't "over achieve" by losing in the Supers. 2013 overachieved, 2017 overachieved. 2016 underachieved by not making Omaha

2016 team didn't overachieve. They were super talented & possibly the best team in the country.

That being said, we didn't lose it as much as Arizona just got hot & nothing Lemo would have done would've prevented Arizona from catching fire. Arizona ended up in the CWS final that year

2016 was mismanaged, Lemo may not have managed it better. But Foxhall probably manages the pitchers way better.

(1) Reid Humphries was dog meat to decent right handed pitching and terrible defensively in OF, he misplayed the fly ball to give up run in game-1 vs Arizona
(2) JC iced and forgot about Cody Brown, clutch has hell Cody was left handed and would have done better vs Dalbec was iced and forgotten by JC in late 2016
(3) JC cut a very competent and experienced LH hitter in Luke Reynolds. After he hit 370 in the SEC in 2015. Reynold then produced an All American year at USM hitting 389 with 18 HRs. JC cut him from the roster preseason.
(4) our hottest pitcher Zac Houston did not throw a pitch vs Arizona. With Arizona completely selling out to hang on for dear life with left our best pitcher unused.
(5) JC yanked Brent Rooker, triple crown Brent Rooker in critical Game-2. To let Micheal Smith bat.
(6) we DH?ed with with Elih Marrero in game-2! A 200 hitter while Cody watched and Reynolds prepared to win the CUSA triple crown
(7) meanwhile in the bullpen, MiniMe maybe destroyed the arms of our greatest ever pitching recruiting class
(8) cherry on top, Pilkington our best LHP with SEC experience was never used in post season. We had to watch Reid Humphries melt down and lose game-2.

Just my opinion, Cohen sank the Titanic then got promoted!

Following season, with no pitching and half the roster talent, Cannizzaro fully matched him in a Super Regional. AC lost in a valiant last stand in Baton Rouge.

Man, #5, I remember looking at my wife and asking WTH? How do you pull Rooker right there. He wasn't in triple
Crown form that year but he was hitting the ball good at that point and was too dangerous to pull. Man, I was so pissed at that.

He pulled Rooker as defensive replacement when we were up. He didn't get pinch hit for. It was still dumb though. And Lemonis has done the same thing w TAnner Allen 3 times this year. Twice in one run games. I would never ever take him out of a one run game. Did it again on Sunday. Skinner isn't THAT much of an improvement in the field to justify that move, IMO

Yeah that skinner move was a poor decision

Yeah Tanner Allen should never, ever leave the field.

The 2016 team was super talented, but we just ran into a hot Arizona team that went on to play for the championship that year. I don't think Lemonis does anything different that changes the outcome of that series

He wouldn’t have bunted 9 times throughout the 2 game series. And he def wouldn’t have bunted Reid humphries in the 3rd inning

Humphries was 0-4 vs Arizona with 3 K's- and failed to get the sac

Hump needed to bunt that game to be honest.

I haven't seen anything from Lemonis I haven't seen from any other State baseball coaches. Well, except he hasn't banged a staffer I guess.

He might not do handwritten letters either.

No DOUBT dumb ass Cohen lost that Super Regional for us.

He out thought himself again...

There were some parents that wanted to really Kick his 17 a$$ after that botched last game... All the while we treated Arizona like they were the host damn team.

Did get drunk with the ESPN guy that died earlier this year. His son played for Zona... He was a nice guy...

17 the intense bastard...
