getting contact hitters from the ASUN without power isn?t going to get you very far.

They also got the Wofford ace. Seems everyone is getting people and we have 2 ?decent? pick ups when we need a whole damn team..

I know that we do not want to overpay but maybe we should. Everybody else is overpaying.

Nope. Just the SS and the 3B…

We all get our hopes up, but history shows Lemonis does not get the big catches. Blame it on whatever you want. We need to hope a few of whoever he gets turn out well. As is, we are in a lot of trouble even being competitive.

Apparently, Lemonis doesn?t like the portal and the pressure is getting to him. If South Carolina would have offered Lemonis the job, I believe he would took it.

SC just fired a coach that made a regional. There is pressure all over the SEC. If Lemonis doesn't like the portal and the pressure to win he should go back to the Big 10 where nobody cares about baseball.

Thunder and Lightning had a show a couple of weeks back talking about Lemonis's personality wasn't a good fit for using the portal and he wouldn't be a baseball lifer.

The man is so paranoid he won't even discuss recruiting. The proof is in the pudding with recruiting. People don't want to see we aren't signing top portal guys. Teams are loading up on we can't even get a look. Parker will get a couple guys by we won't sign many difference makers outside of pitching.

Ok, let’s step back and actually take a look at what we need with cool heads…
Pitching im leaving to Parker. He knows what to do…
C Highfill/Powell
1b Stevens (which he is red hot apparently in summer ball)
2B Pulliam
Ss Mershan if he stays, if not we have got to get a big time transfer
3b Open or the NBama kid. I would have went after the Denton kid from UT
LF Chance
Cf who knows. Need a big get here
Rf who knows
DH I’m guessing Highfill till he gets his arm back right…
So technically we need a legit SS, a legit CF, and a legit Rf. If Lemonis can’t ATELAST pull those 3, we are in serious shit…
On another note, someone made the comment maybe we need to overpay like everyone else. Maybe everyone else is actually just paying and we are acting like we are poor as usual. You don’t have to spend a fortune on a whole team, but you need those 3 listed above to ATLEAST have some kind of offense. (Even tho I don’t think it will
Matter cause Gotro is still the hitting coach…)

Lemonis is paranoid regarding recruiting?
If he is not a fan of the portal, no one really is, and not embracing it??he will ultimately fail.
Currently it is part of sports. It suck?s and isn?t fair but it?s part of it.
