Our BASEBALL TEAM should be Embarrassed.
Pin this to the top of the board.
I hope every one of them see this.
Terrible execution by everyone. You want to play in the SWAC, cause that is what you guys look like.

They've sucked for over a season now.

We lost out in the portal. No dominant pitchers. Money constraints and all.

Foxhall is garbage. Seen this movie before where he has a bunch of pitchers that can't find the strike zone. 10-1 lead and you can't throw strikes? That's just garbage baseball. Foxhall needs to go! You don't even have to be a great pitcher to not walk everyone.

Black magic or not. The university has sold plenty of black caps and 85 jerseys. You're getting white caps and Cleftate. Got to sell that new merch to the masses.

What is even more embarrassing is that State beat State, not VMI.

It was actually a Quad 2 win. 76-135 is quad 2 on the road and OM was 130 coming into today.

You say "team", like the hitters didn't put up 13 and compete till the end. Defense was bad asside from Larry making a couple great plays, and the pitching was unacceptable. But the offense can't be lumped into the blame train
Early season is where you find out what pitchers can go and who can't. The problem in the game is that almost every pitcher looked like a "cant". The problem for the seaons is that many of those "can't"s are guys we NEED to be good

Hmmm ... Did we trot out different players to play D than the players doing the hitting.

This is on Lemonis and Foxhall. These 2 clowns couldn?t mange a game with 9 run lead after 2. Someone please give reasons why Lemonis is a good coach. He has done nothing with any of his recruits.

Jesus the overreaction lol, we walked a lot of people in this early season game, where we're letting guys have a shot to earn more playing time. If we haven't found pitching by SEC play I'll conceed to a recruiting and development failure. Not in game 2 of the season though

Who on our staff gives you confidence? I mean I can't think of anyone that has proven they can do it. No one. Now maybe they prove us all wrong and we cobble together some semblance of a reliable bullpen but I don't see it right now.

I don't say we'd be OK, because I don't feel confident we will. As you say we have very little proven, and seeing guys fail today (including the #2 starter) is doing nothing to fill me with confidence.
But I recognize that it can take more than 1 game to have sorted out the good vs mediocre players, and that sometimes guys emerge. "I can't name you proven studs on opening weekend" doesn't mean there are no studs on the team.

And I agree with you there. But you've had all fall and spring to find guys you can rely on. It just sucks that we continually have to find out these kids can't hack it in big time situations. I don't know how we simulate pressure in practice but it needs to change. We can't run a kid out there and just hope he figures it out.
The other problem is that I don't see any pitchers with that Landon Sims F YOU about them. I think Dohm has that in him though and that's encouraging.

Haven't we walked the world since fall ball?

We walked 12 guys. We allowed 11 stolen bases. We committed 3 errors. VMI scored 14 runs on just 7 hits. That’s inexcusable at the SEC level.

And the offense contributed to the loss by only scoring a meager 3 runs after the 2nd inning. Losing to VMI is really more like 2 losses.
