Tonight Will Wrap Up The Chris Lemonis Era
Tonight was the final nail. Probably should have happened in 23, I wanted him gone in 22 but I digress. We are just not a good baseball program right now and we put too much money into it to be bad. Hell, we put too much money into it to be average. I do hate it for Chris because he is a good person, but this is a results business. I could see the move coming as early as Monday, but I definitely think it comes before we take the field at Dudy Noble again.
Also, enjoy the players we have because by and large they will all be gone at the end of the year. They came to play for this staff.

We will buy new ones, I am sure.

The only thing that would stop us is?. Athletics is broke.

You have some inside info on this? I'd honestly be surprised by an in-season firing....

Yep. You can roll the credits on Gone With Lemonis.

Writing is on the wall, postseason chances are history, and it is no penalty to fire him now.
You also do not have to worry about an interim rallying the troops and making the postseason.

I just don?t see us firing him in season. And not sure what it would accomplish doing it now rather than the end of the season.
Even if we had something to play for.

I agree that all makes sense, but i still doubt that happens.

It is happening. Just a matter of when at this point. I see no reason to not go ahead and make the move.

Like I said in the other thread, Selmon doesn't have the balls and Keenum probably sleeps with that 2021Trophy he gives credit to Lemonhead for winning. I feel pretty certain Mrs Selmon has His balls sealed in a mason Jar on her dresser!

It seems like everytime we have any big 3 sporting event on national television we get absolutely embarrassed.

Oh they will not fire him now. But Selmon needs to be on this situation with guns blazing Monday morning and he can let Lemonis resign or retire or whatever he wants to do and the new coach can be named during, after or before Hoover. I could not care less.

Well we need to announce the new hire as soon as we can to gain momentum in the portal because as others have said. Our roster gonna get gutted. Which is totally fine as long as we have a new hire that can evaluate and sell his product.

I agree.

RPI down to 48 sat this time with 5 SEC wins and 13 games left. Going to take 9-4 down the stretch to have a chance of getting in.
We had no margin for error coming into this series and well.....
This team is fairly veteran laden so we probably would have some losses anyway as far as players go. Pico and Ligon would be gone anyway. Siary- don't think he goes pro but someone might take a chance. Simmons and Hungate are seniors. So gone anyway. Ben Davis will stay I am sure. Highfill I have heard might enter the portal anyway- Lemonis leaving might actually change that or not. Who knows? Hines and Reeves are seniors. Gatlin Sanders isn't going anywhere. Reese would be a big loss. Stevens would be a big loss as well. Chance isn't leaving. Downs and Stallman are seniors I think as is Sullivan. So really we're looking at Reese, Cupp, and Stevens that we would have to replace and maybe Highfill.

Me either. We're not going to have a coach until CWS time more than likely if we move on. Although I'm sure our fans will panic if we don't have one the day after the SEC Tournament is played. Can't wait.**

Let him finish out the season, but I am sure we are moving behind the scenes already.
