I think that it can. Lemonis is like Orgeron. Need top coaches and players. I hope that he let his friendship with fox blind him in seeing that Fox was not elevating our pitchers and it just all went down from there. If you look at our fielding when we played for the championship, they played as a team. Weren't fighting for balls. Weren't making a lot, if any, errors. You get a team like that then Lemonis can climb out of this. We looked better after Foxhall left at pitching.
That being said, was it his relationship that blinded him? Can he evaluate players and coaches? Can he nip bad apples and help players get through whatever it is before a cancer grows. That is to be seen and why it was a risk keeping him. We better hope that it works out because otherwise we'll be filing the roster with transfers to remain competitive the next few years, which we probably will have to do at least one year due to sucking two years in a row.
