Even if the problem is pitching and it?s all on Foxhall, it took Lemonis way too long to make that move.

No matter how you slice it, this is on Lemonis. He does not deserve another year. The right move to make a year from now is the right move now. Time for him to go.
Not necessarily. I know plenty of players that played for Jimmy Bragan and most of them said he was awful. I've met St Louis Cardinals players that played for Vern Rapp and Ken Boyer and they all thought they were awful. Lots of MSU players hated Cohen but he did a good job. Players aren't just blindly loyal to coaches no matter what just because they played for them.

It is on Lemonis but I can't fault the guy for not firing the National Assistant Coach of the year after one bad year where we had a ton of injuries. And Lemonis did fire the guy 3/4 of the way through which is kind of unheard of in college baseball.
