Yep. While credit is due for taking care of the teams in your path, that team fell apart as soon as they faced 1's and 2's, just like every other season.

Yes, a few of us have pointed to 2008 for several years now as the beginning of the downfall. I wish Brian Piccolo would come up with a new screen name to tell me how wrong I was way back in 2014 when I said the program was in a downward spiral.

Look, we know he didn’t want your nephew or whatever the story was, but the head coach sets the tone for recruiting. We’re not fixing all the issues in this program with a fiery young energetic pitching coach. We have top level problems.

Yeah, I didn't put Gino and Mario in the same sentence. I'm not sure who posted that. I'm widely known as one of the biggest anti-Gino guys on the planet, and like I said, I'm a Mario fan.

Eh, you're going off the rails a little bit here. We don't get to show our stuff on TV, but a lot of people here have important jobs that we're really good at, and would get fired if we didn't produce results. And I'm a Mario fan. But he isn't immune to criticism just because he's a good guy.

Here's a stat for you. Want to know who we beat in our last 18 regional and Super Regional wins? Seeds: 4, 3, 4, 3, 4, 3, 4, 4, 3, 4, 3, 3, 4, 4, 3, 3, 4, 4 That's not a joke. We have not had a win against a #1 or #2 seed since 2014 against Texas Tech.

So clever. "Ur a Gator LOL". Does that stuff get laughs at the retirement home?

So we have been losing regularly in regionals since 2008 because it's "just baseball"? We can't beat a #1 or #2 seed in the postseason because it's "just baseball"? We're just unlucky and it's all random? Fans like you are why we've been stuck in this mess since Jim retired ten years before...

Right, because one page ago you claimed that "baseball managers matter very little". He has a top ten RPI team. That's a lot different from being a top ten team, as the ACC manages to show every year. For the third straight year we showed exactly who we are in the 1-0 game.

But you said baseball managers don't matter. Now that we're clear that we aren't talking about an MLB team's minor league system, do you agree that the head coach has a pretty important role?

This is college baseball. The head coach makes or breaks the program. Who do you think is in charge of player development at a place like LSU?
