Yeah I get that but sure would like to see what Dakota can do with at least one more year with us.

Hopefully he makes it back for another year.

All I'm saying is nobody I talk to has heard he will be fired.
Kendall has heard he will return
Rosebowl thinks he returns
Now- Arnett and crew have started keeping things closer to the vest with football news- maybe our new AD is doing the same? I dont know.
We'll see in the next few days because if he is going to be fired it will asap.

I think he's gone just based on the demeanor he's shown the last few days. In his interviews for the last three weeks you can tell it.

He wants a job that cares about baseball. That ain't it.

Huh? LSU last weekend was literally the hardest I've seen him coach in awhile.

Only 4 fanbases in the country care about baseball, and we care the most of the 4. We simply can't allow Lemonis to have another year of this. Like I said, if we had just barely missed back-to-back Regionals due mostly to bad luck, I could see the argument for giving him a 3rd year, but when we're not even close twice in a row, it's time to move on.
We may not get a "splash hire," but the last 2 seasons have been SO BAD that any reasonably competent coach would be an improvement, and there are plenty of those who will gladly take our job.
2008-2010 were worse than this year.

I'm feeling kinda 50/50 now Lemonis will be back. I don't mind him coming back if he can patch up our pitching club. Tall order, and I'm not totally sure it's even possible in this slugger era that we're in. Maybe just a change in philosophy is enough. I dont know. I do feel like our roster is gonna get parted out.

2010 was, not sure that 2008-09 were. Maybe. Probably about the same really.
However, that was before the national title, before almost all of our top 25 largest crowds, before NIL and the portal made it lot easier to turn things around quickly.

MacDonnell to Bama? That would be huge for them.

Not a bad start to a staff is it? That's a dang good core to work from.

Can't wait to see what happens when someone actually coaches them instead of telling them to "just throw".

He's a consensus top 5 round pick. So I would say yes unless Basedog says otherwise.

Based on their performance this year no way is that a good core to work with even if all of them return which is in no way guaranteed. But hopefully a new pitching coach can turn them around because no doubt there is talent and potential in that group.

I?d be willing to bet Simmons, Auger, and Kohn are the best of that group by a mile.
We cannot depend on incoming freshmen pitchers this coming year for sure.
