    Nah, he was absolutely correct. Foxy wouldn't let him throw what he wanted to throw. He got his way and K'd the guy. Our pitching coach doesn't know his pitchers. It's a one damn size fits all deal with him.

    He may have been correct but what he said is wrong.

    I'm happy he did well and hope it continues.

    He didn't literally say "17 off". That was my term for telling him he didn't know what he was doing. The guy has to know his pitchers. He doesn't. We made him the highest paid pitching coach in the country when we hired him. The guy sucks! Give me a pitcher that knows what he wants to do and is a bulldog about doing it. I've seen enough "follow the leader" pitching.

    Make the move Lemo. Preferably TODAY. But before the midweek game at the latest or we'll be calling for your head also.

    I know this if you ask a pitcher to Throw a pitch he doesn't have conviction in you're asking for trouble.

    I agree but these are careers and dreams he?s screwing up/with - at some point someone had to step up and say, no, what you?re doing isn?t working- if I?m losing, I?m losing throwing what I?m comfortable throwing in that situation- these aren?t robots - honestly the pitchers and catchers should be calling their own game

    And now Holcombe will probably get benched for it.

    Foxhall is completely incompetent.

    This is what Jay Powell was saying - the pitch selection was bad and hard to watch - then JP said, "I probably shouldn't say this"

    As a soccer fan, I can accept this candor.

    Did I miss the Coach interview today? I don't think I blinked and missed it?

    It took 6 losses but the parameters have been set for Mississippi State to beat SEC teams.

    They must pitch well enough to hold the opponent to 3 or less runs. Because as good our hitting is supposedly, the max number of runs to date was set today. State mustered 7 runs, but the average through 6 games is 3.75.

    On one of the home runs Dohm gave up, he threw 5-6 straight sliders

    Lemon had no control of tanner Allen - that's the truth. They aren't alpha enough to man up as coaches and so players have to
