F U Bobby Dalbec. We might have had a National Title in 2016 if not for that guy.

No. But he was close I believe. At least for a short stint anyway.

"I bet these guys Won it All in College!"
How many players does Costal Carolina have in MLB from 2016? None.
I'm glad JC was gone the following season, too bad it was just in time to hire Moorehead that nearly matched this waste of talent in 2018-Football and then hired NMP for a huge waste in 2021-WBB. He's done a hattrick.

So by that logic - we should have wanted Polk gone after failing in '85 AND only making 1 CWS with two border-line Baseball HOFer's and two All-Star MLB pitchers?? And Jackie after wasting a 10-2 team in '99 with an NFL OG, RB, TE, & 2 DB's?
I don't think Cohen is the best - but, damn some of the hate you guys have for him is ridiculous. Talented teams lose. Sometimes its coaching. Sometimes its players. Sometimes its both. Sometimes they just can't meld together and produce at their highest level.

It wasn't even any of those really. They just ran into an excellent pitcher who had a coach willing to throw him a 1,000 pitches in a weekend if that was what it took.

85 was totally different - the Ankle incident and the aluminum tomahawk homerun. Once you get into the final games, it's just random variables. Plus, I was just a toddler then, I was prolly looking for Frogs in a creek that afternoon.
89 was a mild example of Polk using his Ace vs the lesser opponents, then losing the pivotal game 3. But even then, Chris George was a real Lion and Freshman All American on the mound. It's wasn't like starting Trevor Fitts vs UCLA in the championship series.
There is a valid argument that we should be thankful for JC at least being in the hunt. Big boys can accept that world view in others.

John Cohen took us further than any baseball coach to date and is only one of two to have coached us in a National Championship game.

So I guess Kruger replaced Albert Pujols?
No pressure.**
