3/3/24 Game 12: UF 6-5 L

[Jonnyblaze]

Can’t even call it a rivalry anymore.

 

[TpaBayFlyFisher]

I will repeat it here. Rad is very likely to become the only UM AD to oversee a sub .500 football team, a sub .500 hoops team, and a sub .500 baseball team. All this and he has access to more money than any of his predecessors.

Thank God they can’t play football in Gainesville anymore.

In fairness, he didn't hire Mario or Larranaga. He's on the clock for me when he has to replace Larranaga. If we're applying the same logic, he presided over a basketball team that went to the Final Four last year.

You can be fair to Rad, I am running out of time and he has done nothing to help me see another championship in any sport.

 

[NC_Canes_11]

To be fair this is exactly what I expected. Only difference is, switch the LIU loss to a win and yesterdays game to a loss.

The only successful coach Rad has hired in his career is Paul Johnson.

Silver lining this weekend:

1. We still hold the overall series lead by the slimmest of margin

2. Cuvet & Torres looks to be a solid 1-2 punch in the heart of the lineup

3. We didn’t get swept

4. Gave us a little hope w/ a pinch hit grand slam

That’s all I have. 6-5 is a mediocre record, but the problem is we play a **** ton of home games, & it’s not a home field advantage right now. ****, we don’t play a road game until March 12 (FAU), & a true, true road game until we travel to ND later this month. The pitching is hot & cold, & our bats r hot & cold. Hence the 6-5 record.

It’s going to be a season that’ll test our patience, & our hearts.

At this point the only thing left for Sully to do is declare prima nocta

 

[ErickMarreroU]

One very positive thing about today was Oliveria.

3 IP 3 H 1ER 5K's

Best he's looked all year and against the best competition we will play all year

 

[Pitcher in the Rye]

We look so bad when we run our mouths in a series loss to a team that absolutely owns us.

Wander, what happened to the handshake line? I've been to two different series finales at different programs and everyone just heads to the lockers now.

It’s crazy to me that we paid top dollar for a project manager on a construction effort that may or may not get done

You may have just F’ed us

And what were the trajectories before he arrived, and what is the current trajectory they are on?
Baseball and Football were on clear downward trajectory before him. Baseball is likely reaching their floor. TBD how that goes. Football already has floored 2 yrs ago and is on an upward trajectory. Basketball just reached it's absolute peak under him, but was already on that trajectory. This is a terrible season relative to the previous two for us, but we have our best recruiting class in like school history, and can flip this seasons results quickly. Womens basketball also just had their best season in our history.

I assumed he hired Swinney then I looked it up and he was there 4 years after that hire

He's eminently qualified. He went to grad school here in the early 80's. Perfect hire.

JD Postgame interview

 

[FL Cane]

Team will continue to underperform as long as JD is running the show. This isn’t a knock on him personally, but this program hasn’t been elite in a very very long time. Promoting from within a failed regime won’t equal better results.

For this baseball program to be successful, you have to clean house top to bottom and bring in completely new blood.

 

[Number1CanesFan]

Don't tell me to leave anything be, sport. You don't run this place. I'll stand by what I posted. We look like idiots going back and forth with a team that owns us.

I just did, but feel free to continue to argue about stupid things that don't matter.
